Hopefully, you’re as excited after reading this issue as I was as I was putting it together, and when I was writing the alt-text for the images, and even now that I’m writing the blog post for it! This might not be the most visually interesting toy comic I’ve ever made (that honor probably still…
If you’ve been reading my Stargate toy comic, and patiently awaiting the reveal of the secrets of this strange, unnamed world upon which our heroes have gotten stranded… Congratulations, your patience paid off this month! I hope it was worth the wait; I know I had a lot of fun piecing together the elements of…
Well, the… stuff… really hit the fan in this month’s issue, didn’t it? In true Stargate fashion (I hope), things go from bad to worse about halfway through the pilot episode! That’s not to say that six issues of my comic will “equal” one episode of a TV show; I don’t think that math would…
Welcome back to Pizzarat.net for the second issue of my Stargate toy comic (and, if you haven’t read the first issue, now’s the perfect time)! I’m glad you’re here, and positively thrilled that you’ve read all the way down to my blog post about this comic. It’s a proud tradition in two of the great…
I came to enjoy Stargate later than the other “Star” franchises (to crib a phrase from The Simpsons’ Comic Book Guy); I’ve never been a big fan of the movie, and when SG-1 moved from Showtime to the Sci-Fi Channel, I was about to start college, so I had plenty of other demands on the…
The Kingpin’s unexpected journey into becoming some kind of necromancer continues at breakneck speed this month! That definitely wasn’t part of the plan when I started working on this comic, but the further into it I get, the more the Kingpin’s control issues assert themselves in my characterization of him. Wilson Fisk subscribes to the…
Raul Julia’s performance as M. Bison in Street Fighter (1994) is one of those towering, improbably perfect performances in movie history. I don’t say “improbable” because he hadn’t proven himself time and again to be one of the grandest actors alive (name a performance where he wasn’t giving 120% – you can’t do it), but…
I’ve gone on record several times – on this very website, even – that The Death and Return of Superman is, and probably always will be, my favorite comics event. I might even go as far as to call it my favorite story, except that it’s really a lot of stories swirling around one gigantic,…
Probably not surprising: this month’s comic has far fewer parallels to my own life experience than the previous installments. Daredevil’s story and mine were bound to diverge eventually; it’s a little surprising it didn’t happen before he fights a literal demon from hell on top of a skyscraper in a thunderstorm. Believe it or not,…
Welcome back to another installment of my new Daredevil story! I’m still really pleased with how the first part came out, but I think the panel layouts flow a little better this time (especially from one page to the next), and I think I did a better job of channeling Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin in his…
