See photos from the new ‘She-Ra’ series helmed by Noelle Stevenson

A few months ago, Noelle Stevenson visited Blue Sky, the animation studio helming the film adaptation of her bestselling graphic novel Nimona, to see gorgeously painted concept art depicting a shark with boobs.

“I couldn’t believe it. This comic panel I drew when I was 19 years old and sleep deprived with the dumbest joke I could think of because it made me laugh at 4 a.m.,” Stevenson tells EW. “Suddenly, I’m here, sitting in this theater, looking at it with this beautiful, larger-than-life production art.”
