Superhero ASL 1 Avengers by Anthony Andujar Jr

So I've mentioned before, I'm a CODA (child of deaf adults), I'm an illustrator, a huge comic book reader since childhood, and currently in the process of becoming a professional ASL Interpreter. Given that the interperting program Chews up so much of my time, I don't get to draw and post as much as I'd like to. But maybe that's a good thing. I got inspired by a post on @btwnvillains page, and really got inspired by my friends @jj.visual.craft , and @the_deaf_funny_guy_ , and the rest of their efforts to combine two former esoteric things (ASL aka American sign language), and comic book culture into one thing. With that said, I started cracking down and made a template for myself for some pieces in the works. So here's version 1. So I figured I'd start with the Avengers, amongst other teams and characters. More characters and universes to come. But I guess in a funny way, I'm coming full circle with two things that are combining together in my life I guess.
