Caption text at the top of the image sets the stage for this comic strip: “In the last decade of the 24th century…” In the bottom half of the image is the bridge of the Constellation-class starship Ingenuity.

It’s been a little bit since the last entry in my Fenris Rangers comic, but once again, we’re picking up right where we left off, with the Galor-class ship taking our heroes to the site of the mysterious attack on the Cardassian convoy! (as always, there’s an archival blog post of mine regarding an episode…

Spider-Man and Spider-Woman (who’s back, for some reason) watch the streets of New York City at night, from high atop the roof of a building. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Rebranded Avengers Presents… ‘Can’t Believe This Is it’,” is visible at the bottom of the image.

Obviously, HYDRA has to have a leader; this gang of frustrated and obnoxious men wouldn’t have organized itself without someone pulling them all together. Since old men have been manipulating young men into fighting their wars for them for as long as humans have been waging war, it made sense to me to make Baron…

The Mayor of New York City, Mayor Gruenwald (named for late Marvel Comics writer/editor Mark Gruenwald), Domino, an NYPD officer, and War Machine are all on a video conference call. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Rebranded Avengers Presents… ‘I’d Rather Be Dead Than Have It Be True’,” is visible at the bottom of the image.

I imagine it would be quite the trying thing, being the Mayor of New York City, and having all these incredibly powerful people, over whom you have no material authority, trying to stop crimes, and battling each other in the street regularly. When all you can really do is try to pick up the pieces…

Caption text at the top of the image sets the stage for this comic strip: “In the last decade of the 24th century…” In the bottom half of the image is the Constellation-class starship Ingenuity, face-to-face with a Cardassian Galor-class warship, at the edge of the former Romulan Neutral Zone. The title of this comic series - Star Trek: Fenris Rangers - is visible along the middle-right edge.

Picking up exactly where we left off last week, with Seven of Nine and the Fenris Rangers aboard their disabled starship, facing off against some furious Cardassians. How will they get out of this one? Well, read on, and find out! (once again, prepare for another archival episode-by-episode reaction of mine to the first season…

Daily Bugle intern extraordinaire Miles Morales runs down an office hallway, towards the sound of the voice of his boss, J. Jonah Jameson. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Rebranded Avengers Presents… ‘Ain’t No Easy Way Out’,” is visible at the top of the image.

Posted on September 2, 2021September 17, 2023 by phil.wrede

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…

Caption text at the top of the image sets the stage for this comic strip: “In the last decade of the 24th century…” In the bottom half of the image is the Constellation-class starship Ingenuity, in orbit around a nondescript moon, at the edge of the former Romulan Neutral Zone. The title of this comic series - Star Trek: Fenris Rangers - is visible along the middle-left edge.

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…

Shatterstar prepares for a significant fight, declaring that he’s headed for the roof of Avengers Tower. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Rebranded Avengers Presents… ‘Out from This Masquerade’,” is visible at the bottom of the image.

All-New, Rebranded Avengers #35 – ‘Out from this Masquerade’

Posted on August 26, 2021September 17, 2023 by phil.wrede

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,…

Shuri, the Princess of Wakanda, Beast, King T’Chaka of Wakanda, and War Machine are all on a video conference call. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Rebranded Avengers Presents… ‘Learn Everything the Hard Way’,” is visible at the bottom of the image.

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…

Caption text at the top of the image sets the stage for this comic strip: “In the last decade of the 24th century…” In the bottom half of the image is the Constellation-class starship Ingenuity, in orbit around a nondescript planet. The title of this comic series - Star Trek: Fenris Rangers - is visible in the bottom-right corner.

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…

The prison bus driven by Thor, and carrying the prisoners left over from the big Avengers vs. Advanced Idea Mechanics (A.I.M.) fight, approaches the Vault, the big prison for superpowered criminals in Canon City, Colorado. The title of this comic strip, ‘Time Keeps Draggin’ On’,” is visible at the top of the image.

All-New, Rebranded Avengers #33 – ‘Time Keeps Draggin’ On’

Posted on August 12, 2021September 17, 2023 by phil.wrede

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…

Welcome to PizzaRat dot Net, where I (Phil Wrede) post my toy comics!

The Idea

Comics, but with photos, instead of drawings.

The Process

Using stock photos as backgrounds, and digitally pasting photos of action figures over them. Graphic design software enables the lettering.

The Point

To make comics, to share stories, and to retroactively justify all the money I've spent on action figures over the years.
