At this point, there’s not at lot new for me to babble about, with a new J. Jonah Jameson appearance. I liked to tell myself that I was going to be judicious with his appearances, that I didn’t want to wear out the welcome of my very favorite character to write. Obviously, I haven’t been…
Happy Monday morning! Perhaps the second installment of my Fenris Rangers toy comic and help dull the ache of a new week, at least a little. Anybody who’s ever tried to keep an aged car running should be able to sympathize with the challenges the Rangers face in maintaining their vintage starship. We’ve also got…
You can probably tell I had a ton of fun with this comic strip (at least, I hope you can). Trying to establish some kind of geography to the action with a hodgepodge of stock photos, layering all the VFX pieces on top of each other to, hopefully, make for some dramatic gunshots and explosions,…
I’ve come to love these video meeting comic strips, because I don’t have to conjure reasons for the characters to all be in the same place, to have a conversation. And, because it lets me get really picky about the angles at which the characters are posed in the frame. And, because it gives me…
I’m still sorting out how I feel about the Captain Picard Show properly, but there were so many elements of the show’s world that fascinated me. Side characters, lines of dialogue, and locations that were only visited for a moment are still knocking around in my head. By far the most significant one is Seven…
Here we are, The Vault! The prison where superpowered criminals are kept, at least until they break out, or are broken out. Very much Marvel’s answer to Arkham Asylum, although with more of a sterile mountain vibe, as opposed to Arkham’s oppressive gothic/industrial aesthetic. Also, I don’t believe The Vault’s ever had any pretension of…
I’ve mentioned before that I’m a big fan of Julia Carpenter’s Spider-Woman; there was an annual issue of Avengers West Coast (looks like #7, from a cursory internet search) where she was at the old Stapleton Airport* in Denver, and rescued an airplane that was careening off the runway in a winter storm. Julia had…
It’s not an Avengers story if the tension of an in-group argument isn’t cut by some somber news, right?
I like this fight scene, by and large. I especially like the Falcon using his wings as an offensive weapon, and the little “motion” accessory stand for Cap’s shield. Speaking of Cap… What an addition to the cast today, huh? Captain America was my favorite Marvel superhero for years, and years, and years (probably still…
Plenty of digital and actual ink has been spilled about The Matrix, enough that I don’t need to add my voice to whatever chorus is loudest at this particular moment. I do, however, think that I need to take Space Ghost’s trip down memory lane here to its most ridiculous conclusion, and recreate some scenes…
