@Tom-Shannon this is a fun take on superstition!
-
-
@BichonBistro Thank you!
-
@Sofie-Schollaert, that is super cute!

One of my favorite parts of Batman's origin is his inner monologue where he says to him self "criminals are a superstitious cowardly lot" - So i decided to incorporate that with 3 of the best characters from his rogues gallery that could represent different superstitions.
I am new here so I hope you all like it!
-
@joe-kemp That is really nice! I love your comic line work and toning, and the concept in general. Great entry!
-
@joe-kemp Great take on this. So creative to include all the traditional superstitions into one with classic DC villains. Great job with the character art, too.
-
Here's mine for the month. The superstition is that a witch cannot fly through a diagonal window. (Not sure why she couldn't get in through all the other windows, or even the door...) This is pretty much limited to the Vermont area, so it's not a well-know superstition, but I really liked the idea.

I'm not a gambler, but I always see this superstition in the movies. When playing a game of chance with dice, the player will kiss or blow on the dice (or get a pretty lady to kiss or blow the dice) for good luck. Big money, big money, big money.

Apparently, chewing gum at night (somewhere) means you are chewing on the flesh of the dead - yuuuuuuuuck. Thanks for taking a look!

Here’s my submission, based on the superstition of ‘don’t step on the crack or you’ll break your mothers back’.
-
Nice entries so far everyone, here is mine
-
@lmrush love this!
-
@BichonBistro Aww thank you so much!
-
@lmrush that’s funny I want to do the same or very similar. I hope to get it done this week.
-
@joe-kemp very cool
-
@lmrush LOL! I have the same thing! Great minds think alike.
There are a lot variations in the folk poem so ours are not exactly the same. I like your color scheme. -
My superstition is about bird omens. Ravens or crows in particular (or Corvi). @lmrush did one that is similar
, but there are a lot of variations of the folk poem so ours are not exactly the same. The one I have goes like this:
One for sorrow, two for mirth.
Three for death, four for birth.
Five for silver, six for gold.
Seven for a secret never to be told.
Eight for a wish, nine for a kiss.
Ten for a bird you must not miss.

Interesting how there are so many variations of that poem. The first time I read it, it was written in James O'Barr's graphic novel "The Crow". It was much more sinister and ominous in that one though. And I've never read it past seven! Great efforts
