Drafts

---

Homestuck Aspect Symbol Drafts (ca. mid 2011)

The beta kid aspect symbols (and Terezi's, because of her Vriska shenanigans) were already known, but Hussie quickly had to come up with the other seven, and this page shows that struggle for Blood (top left), Void (top middle/middle right), Rage (left of void), Hope (bottom left and middle) and Heart (all over the damn place). As far as I can tell, Life and Doom aren't there.

TSO Gazette (c. 2005)

The TSO (Team Special Olympics) Gazette is a physical zine by Andrew Hussie and some of his friends. Though the full contents are currently lost media, a lot of it has been posted in multiple forms: the forward text, some related images, and the script and textless panels for "Quincy & Carlyle's Ectobiology", a comic written by Hussie and drawn by Betelgeuse in a close style. Discord user virtuademon/roxie combined the script and panels to turn it into a finished product, which is mirrored below.
