Ohmygosh everyone's are so good!

And now I'm going to weigh down this page with images because I did not plan well enough to have a page to put them on. Also I never got around to doing that cover page I'd wanted to.

Image
Meet Captain Starslie Breckinridge and her spunky sidekick, Robot Roy! You can tell he's spunky because he's wearing a neckerchief.

Image
He is there because a captive in a revealing outfit is required by law.

Image
And she fires with the amazing disappearing-reappearing raygun!

Image
Spinning death top! The penultimate move.

Image
Also: His hands are tied!

Image
Yes, that is my excuse for not giving him an original hair design.

Image
Tons of exposition! Can you tell this is part of an idea for a much larger project?

Image
He's such a classicist that he sets up his last stand in front of sensitive machinery. And is then surprised when things go bad.

Image
She has a spare sweater because 'It gets cold in space', by the way.

Image
End chapter 1!

Okay, a little late but here it is. I didn't have time to finish coloring it :-? , but I plan to over the next few days. A little backstory: This is a sequel to a story I did a few years ago for the (unpublished) Cornstalker sampler and takes place 3 years after the original. I you would like to read the original it can be seen here


EDIT: Colors done.

Oh well, I admit I didn't finish on time, but at least I can show how much is done. I'll probably will try to finish it anyway.

Huh. Works fine for me, but the site in general has been a pain in the ass these last couple days. Try refreshing.

Leave it to McDuffies to start out with a young woman conversing with her bellybutton and have it end in a Kubrickesque apocalypse.

The ending to this one rocks.


MixedMyth's and BEC's are very cool too. Lots of neat stuff produced here.

Kinda makes me wish I could still draw things without taking a million years.

The cryptic nature of Mixed Myth's that allows her to go forwards or backwards provides a cool effect on the comic that fits the content perfectly.

Nah, it's mostly that I am working this to add to my port-folio and couldn't write a third comic while doing this, the Volet and Evil Overlord as well as job hunt.

Heh.

I've actually read a few of em. I like how yours jumps from the mundane to the bizzarre like that. Was hoping for an image of a worm riding an a-bomb at the end, though.

Paul's was cool, too. Cute animals playing out the violent absurdity of today make for good television.
