Artist's Notes:
There isn't much of a Corean connection as far as Jackie is concerned. I first drew the character back in middle school (around age 14), which would make this creation over twenty years old. She showed up again in a comic strip I did for medical school in 1992. And like a bad penny, she turns up again (inspired by Shirley Manson from Garbage, awesome concert this month for their new album). Jackie's my original bad girl, a red-headed Scottish lass (like Shirley Manson). Who says I don't acknowledge my Scottish heritage?
