I think one of the first “ideas” I had for these comics was to make War Machine and Domino a couple. It’s in the very first installment of All-New, All-Remote Avengers! I believe the most sophisticated my thinking had gotten was that it could be funny to see the perpetually straight-laced Jim Rhodes try to…
There are a number of threads that became so crucial to the tapestry of the MCU that I can’t imagine it without them, and one of the most significant, for me, is Paul Bettany’s voice. For as much as I enjoy both incarnations of The Vision, I loved JARVIS so, so very much. I assume…
Given what I wrote for the comic strip where Justin Hammer (as played by Dr. Ian Malcolm) was introduced, it’s probably no surprise that Jurassic Park was a formative movie for me, and remains one of my all-time favorites. If it wasn’t obvious before, it has got to be, now, with the late Sir Richard…
There are a few jokes that I will never get tired of having the characters, especially Thor and Spider-Woman, tell, and when I can find a way to tie two of them together, those are really thrilling moments for me.
Happy 2022, everybody! Some focused free time between academic semesters helped me get back on track with the comic! In an attempt to achieve some better work/life/hobby balance, I’m going to go back to the schedule where I alternate a “main story” comic with a 4-panel “joke” comic each week, so while that main story…
2020 and 2021 were, I think, each tremendously rough rides in their own similar and distinct ways. I know New Year’s Eve is a high-order human construct, and that the flipping over of the calendar to a “new” year doesn’t actually do anything to change the world around us, but it’s incentive to try, and…
I feel like art-as-advocacy has not had the long-term punchiness in the pandemic that many of us who genuinely believe in the potential of art to communicate ideas, encourage empathy, and impact the world hoped it had. Or, at least, in my corner of the world, I’ve not seen it be as successful as maybe…
One of my favorite parts about these short, 4-panel comic strips is in trying to pair up characters who don’t get a lot of time together normally, and see how they bounce off one another. I think a longer-form Rage and Hawkeye adventure could be a lot of fun, if I ever have the time…
Hawkeye never thought he’d go from being the Avengers’ resident Luddite to providing on-the-fly tech support to Captain America…
Into the Spider-Verse is a movie I’ve not been able to get out of my head since the moment I saw it in the theater, and while I’m certainly not trying to be (nor capable of being) as visually imaginative as that movie, I’d at least like to tip my hat to it, especially around…
