Zae is a severe insomniac that exists in a waking dream. Sienna is the
bearer of a family curse involving an ancient serpent deity.
The two have a thing for one another, but after a night of
(almost)passion quickly discover that their respective baggage might
make them incompatible in the world-ending kind of way.
Potion is a story about the inner struggles that both isolate and
connect us, mourning the person you never were, and feeling 'stuck'
until suddenly you can't afford to be... as well as Big Alchemy, wizard
gangs, hypnosis ASMR, gig work, sexy dream entities, and
giant-sword-wielding exes amongst other things.
Potion contains depictions of violence, nudity, and sexual situations.

Monte’s earliest memories are of kitchen sink baths and his oldest
brother burning his ear with a curling iron (accidentally, the
brother claims). His earliest art-related memories are of him
sitting on the floor drawing Sonic the Hedgehog and Winnie the
Pooh. Cartoons, picture books, and video games sparked his
interest for character creation and storytelling, which only grew
over time.
Now, a decade into his illustration career, this Chicago-born
creative continues to follow this passion, honing a visually
distinctive style and creating characters and stories for a
living.
