A dark blue werewolf silhouetted against a full slightly orange moon in a dark blue sky. Their ears are back and they're looking down sadly at their right hand's claws. Written on an arc above the moon is "You're a Werewolf" in scratches. Below the moon on an arc is written "and I'm a full moon." The lyrics are from "Be Nice to Me" by the Front Bottoms.

I like werewolves. I like song lyrics. I see song lyrics about sad werewolves: I draw. Lyrics are from "Be Nice to Me" by the Front Bottoms.

A skeletal hand lies in a trail of blood, reaching towards a kneeling young woman in a red cape trimmed with gray wolf fur and buttoned with a canine tooth. It conceals her shoulders, but where her hands should be are gray, wolf paws resting on her long gray skirt. She wears a black shirt and brown belt. Her head is bowed beneath her hood and her black , jagged hair covers her eyes. Blood drips from an impassive mouth. A pink crescent moon hangs above her in a dark blue sky filled with stars. She kneels in a gap between two rows of pines. The ground is snowy. In the upper left and lower right, there's a capital A that looks like it's made of scratch marks. In the upper right and lower left, there's a pink geometric heart with four bloody claw slashes though it. This is an ace card, and overlaid over the image is a pattern mesh of white diamonds to make it look cheaply printed.

Another red riding hood card, this time the ace. Featuring murder, a cornerstone of any good fairy tale. My, what big hands she has.

The first four pages of a zine. The background of all pages is cream paper with blue lines. The top page says Classroom Monsters! in black letters. The M in monsters is covered in blue fur with two teeth at the bottom of the M. Below that it says Ari Coester and @astro-axolotl. Around the edges of the paper are a piece of each of the monsters in the pages of the books. Clockwise from top: an insect mouth with sharp teeth, a blue snail tail leaving a trail of dark purple glittery slime, two eyes on stalks, two triangular horns, an insect leg, and a scaly tail with a yellow paper airplane on the tail. The next page is titled Munch Box in red. It is an orange lunch box with a red devil tail, blue furry legs with white claws, and a red forked tongue coming out from between sharp teeth. It has two cream horns near a gold handle. Its eye stares at the viewer. The text below reads "looks like a lunch box to trick you into putting food into it. DO NOT FEED!!" The next page says Pencil Eater in Red. It is a red pencil sharpener with 4 black insect legs on the left and two on the right. The hole of the sharpener has three sharp teeth, two on top and one on bottom. A crest of pencil shaving comes out of the back. Two eyes on stalks are on the opposite side of the hole and stare back at the viewer. The text below says: "Eats pencil lead. Keeps wood shaving on back to look bigger. " The last page is titled Eraser Crab in red. It's a pink pencil eraser topper with an eye in the hole and a small red semi-circular mouth beneath it. In the mouth is a pencil shaving. It has eight red legs, four on each side. The text below says "scavenge pencil shavings. switch eraser shells as they get bigger."
The last three pages of the zine. The top page is titled Spider Plant. It is a terracota pot with a succulent in the dirt. The center bud of the succulent is red purple and the rest of the leaves are green. The pot has one large eye and two stickers: a star and a rainbow. It has 8 legs arranged in a circle around the water catching dish. The text below says "gives the plant a home in exchange for sugars. Plant also helps camouflage." The next page is titled in red "Paper Griffen". It's a yellow paper airplane with blue squiggles drawn all over it and an eye near the nose. Two orange bird legs with sharp talons are curled beneath the body. A green scaled tail comes from the central crease and curls around the plane. The tip has a smaller paper air plane. There are black motion lines near the tail. The text reads "can't fly, only glide. uses tail for steering." The last page is titled in red Snue. It's a purple glitter glue bottle with slightly off Elmer's branding and lettering. The orange cap has two eyes on blue stalks coming out of it. The foot of the snue comes out of the underside of the bottle. It is light blue and leaves behind a trail of purple glitter glue. The small text reads "Can pull whole body into bottle for safety. Leaves behind a glittery slime trail."

A silly comic about some monsters that live in classrooms. Look more closely at your school supplies.

A blue sea slug with yellow and darker blue polka dots on a green background. It has reddish orange antennae and a plums of white and light rose tentacles on its butt.

Another sea slug because I love painting them and cannot be stopped by man or god.

A black teenage girl stands sideways pointing a Wild West pistol at the camera. A round lilac sigil glows around the muzzle. The sigil's outer ring is filled with triangles. The inner circle is filled with five circles with dots in the middle arranged in a pentagon. The circles are connected by lines. A black poncho billows out behind her. Two violet straps studded with bullet holders cross over her chest. She wears a white long sleeved shirt and brown pants. A black cowboy hat with a violet ribbon shades her stern eyes and sterner expression. Her black dreads wave in the breeze. Behind her, the red desert sand stretches to the horizon which ripples in the fading heat of sunset.

Introducing Violet Death, the most terrifying teenage gunwitch in the whole West. Her truth bullet will make you spill your guts-- in both senses of the phrase.

A side view poison dart frog with a shiny black back. Its back legs are gold with black markings, and their long toes are red with purple toe pads. There are patches of lime green where the legs meet the body. A green strip runs from shoulder to elbow on its forearm. Their front toes are black with one or two blue spots. A band of aquamarine sits over the black eye.

We love frogs in this house

A front-facing view of a gray wolf with a brown moth covering its eyes. The two bottom wings each have a yellow eye spot where one of the wolf's eyes would be.

I'll be your eyes, you'll be my face.

A little sticker design inspired by Noah Kahan's "Anyway."

A cream sea slug with brown spots wears a tan cowboy hat with a red sash around the base. It has gold studs. He chews a strand on gold wheat. The background is a green circle.

"Howdy, partner. Don't suppose you seen any cows around these parts? Mine seem to have wandered off. Mind helping me find em? Your eyes be mighty useful, 'specially cause I don't have any!"

Will you help him find his cows?
