I keep thinking about that post about the whole genre of movies about a white guy getting into an asian philosophy, matrial art etc and then proceeding to surpass his teacher and be the best ever at it, and I started thinking about the opposite of it.

 I want a movie about a chinese dude who comes to Finland, downs an entire bottle of Koskenkorva, tries to fight a nearby cow and ends up lying face down in a ditch while sobbing about his ex wife and having like 5 finnish dudes staring at him in awe like

 “That’s him. That’s the chosen one.”

The 5 finnish dudes bring him home with them.  The next day, the chinese dude wakes up on the couch with a mighty hangover.   He turns on the TV and for the first time in his life sees Moomintroll.  Instant spiritual bonding experience.  Overcome with emotion,  he begins to sing an ode to Snufkin in a high clear tenor voice. The 5 finnish dudes hastily call their live-in wise old mentor.  “Yes,” says the mentor after watching chinese dude for a few minutes.  “The prophecy was true.  This is the chosen one.  This man…will be our 2020 Eurovision act.”

Aziraphale has committed at least four of the seven deadly sins. He’s been prideful (all the times he’s acted like he’s better than Crowley), he’s been gluttonous (this one is fairly obvious), he’s been greedy (not actually selling any of his books), and he’s even been slothful (in the sense of ignoring one’s “duty to God”)–and that’s at the bare minimum, if you take the text at face value. It’s also possible to read lust for Crowley, or envy of humanity’s free will.

Just some food for the thought about everyone’s favorite bastard angel.

So I’ve been off Tumblr for a couple of years but started lurking again recently and now I’ve done an illustration I think I’d like to share here - somewhere I know there’s, well, a wee bit of Good Omens appreciation going on.

I could (and quite honestly pretty much have) write a 3000 word essay of My Opinions about the Good Omens miniseries. Ultimitely there was a lot to love.

But I did miss the John Le Carré (Tinker Tailor Seraph Serpent?) vibe from the early Aziraphale/Crowley sections of the book. And thus I felt compelled to create a Good Omens cover in tribute to the wonderful Le Carré covers by Matt Taylor and Penguin (I’ve attached a few of my favourites or reference), which are some of my very favourite covers in print. Not only is the illustration work gorgeous, there’s some lovely ever-so-understated edginess going on in the typography.

I’ve included a couple of bits of process work too. There’s nothing I love more than a riff on the Penguin logo, so of course it had to become a nightingale.

Oh and PSA don’t feed bread to ducks, it’s really bad for them.
