I try keep things super(!) simple. My initial step for flats is to pull way back on contrast and add a ton of a baseline color tint (color balance > ALL green/cyan). Then just go in strategically to add contrast, hue tint, subtle gradients and maybe draw in a couple shadows/highlights.

Had exactly as much popcorn movie fun as I wanted from He-Man🍿but main takeaway is someone needs to give Idris Elba a Star War asap. No one is adventuring like him -

Back with another cover for SCORCH, riding for revenge in her own mini (so obviously I wish her the best 💜) at @oni-press.bsky.social This one is dropping in September and up for preorders -

The Kingpin, Matt Murderdock (of Earth-65). Prison break, ruining lives, clashing with former allies. This is my bias but I think there's a ton of untapped story potential-

Couple recent warm-ups with Star & Cat -

Jazzed to finally see this one in print ✨ @amythunderjam.bsky.social really let me live out my Jem & the Holograms dreams and we got to turn the spotlight on some of the ladies of the Flash Gordon universe (I love them)💖

Glad to see this technicolor team back in action, and there's an alt color version of my issue one cover in the mix this time 💚 -

Little warm-up with my fav book nerd Paige #Deadlock -

Love this small bird 🐤 One of my favorite things I worked on last year, a kids comic serial. I was co-writing, layouts, colors & lettering in collaboration with the ever charming @supcheesebag.bsky.social on art and these installments have just been printing beautifully -

Recently announced from Oni, SCORCH is a brand new anti-hero for the Biker Mice from Mars universe and yeah, love me a biker lady with a big engine hammer. This cover was a massive treat but also like.. stay tuned 🔥 -

Comics friends, if this account just followed you, block them. It's an AI platform for "comics" -

OUT TODAY 🐧💊 Destination Kill from @joepalmerart.bsky.social & @oni-press.bsky.social hits shelves today. It's a relentlessly stylish book, plays like an animated series in your head, and I'm so jazzed to be able to contribute a variant for this one -

Just a quick sketch of my favorite Padme fit for May the 4th✨ -

I've fallen in love with Flash Gordon and more generally these archetypal pulp heroes with their FIRMLY fixed moral compasses. Genuinely refreshing these days. Thanks so much to @amythunderjam.bsky.social and @mightybrunstad.bsky.social for having me on the team for this one 💖 Trade incoming! -

Happy Superman Day 💙

Hey #PortfolioDay - I'm Tango, a comics Writer/Artist with a love of street level characters, big action, complicated ladies, & survival stories - 💀✨ akatango.carrd.co 💌 hellorooftoptango@gmail.com

The ink often chews up the cheap paper in this sketchbook but it's also very important to me to have the zero stress space to draw sometimes -

My variant on the latest Bombshell & Atomica (written by @comicuno.bsky.social & @philfalcowrites.bsky.social) This one is a spicy (!🌶️) 1950s pulp sapphic romance. Already funded and still rolling - www.kickstarter.com/projects/wil...

Sometimes a Rogue pose Jim Lee drew in 1991 just lives rent free in your head forever -
