It's been quite a while since I posted anything for my comic on LJ. Since I know two people at leats read it via this format I might s well get everything caught up here with the current story: The Danger, the Diamond and the Dowager.

I've had this idea for a Galaxy Quest/Inspector Spacetime crossover comic for a while. Or at least I've had the itch to try it for some time. There's just something about these kind of meta-textual fandoms that interest me. While someone provides this framework for the fandom to exist in, it's all up to the imagination of the fans to fill ( Read more... )

It's been a couple months since I really got behind the drawing table.  But I finally got a bit of inspiration and I've started something new. It's a fan comic idea that's been percolating in my head for a while, and it's high time I got it out. The first page is drawn and in the computer, and I'm now coloring it ( Read more... )

I have to say, I've been in something of a creative funk of late. I haven't posted anything on Deviant Art in over a month, and the few things I have tried starting haven't really worked for me. I feel like I've been running in circles and not getting anywhere. So to kick myself out of this, I'm trying to do something different. I've decided to go ( Read more... )

Part of the problem I've been having with my comic is that it's not exactly where I want it to be. My problem is I'm just so serious and I really have trouble getting into that kind of wonky campy mindset of the Golden and Silver age comics ( Read more... )

I'm five pages into this new  story I'm working on, and I've hit one of those slumps in productivity. I haven't worked on the comic in a few days, and I'm developing a bit of that anxiety for where I want to go with this thing ( Read more... )

 I got my second page for THEY SAVED AYN RAND'S BRAIN!!! inked and scanned today, I also got excessively anal retentive about this page. I ended up setting up  a slew of guides in Photoshop and realigned all of the borders straight and square.

When I'm drawing I can't ever get the lines really straight, just sort of close. Each time I pull out ( Read more... )

I've started on the next story line for my comic. It came easily enough thanks to the title: THEY SAVED AYN RAND'S BRAIN!!! (yes, it has to be in all caps)  of course I took the name from the schlock-fi  film They Saved Hitler's Brain. Ayn just seemed the perfect candidate for getting her head disembodied and kept alive in a jar, what with her  ( Read more... )

I have sort of been involved with this one little online community of open source comic characters. But recently I've pretty much given up on that line of thinking.

Open sourcing of characters has become a bit of an internet fad. The idea really sprung up around Jenny Everywhere a character that came into existence out of a cartoonist forum in the ( Read more... )

You know, when I am at work i have all these great ideas for blog posts. Of course the moment I actually sit down in front of the computer, I can't remember a damn thing I thought should write about. But I am here so I'm going to use p_n_elrod's "Butt In Chair" method and make myself come up with something.

Well, DC Comics just announced "Before Watchmen" ( Read more... )
