The Jester: Prt1

This one is a villain, as the devious smirk is hopefully an indication of. The Jester was the first super hero name I ever came up with back in middle (or really late elementary) school after getting a book on how to draw super heroes. It was mostly inspired by a hat I had gotten at a renaissance fair. The original Jester wore tights instead of a suite and looked more realistic (I think he may have been very close in muscles and face to the Mr Fantastic I was emulating), but had the same 3 prong hat and mask.

Preface

Alright, this is the week to be checking my blog. I gave some thought to the underlining cause of the lack of comics here. My computer breaking takes care of the last month or so, but I'm not sure it made a difference. My initial idea had been to create a few characters, flesh out their personalities, and the let the rest sort itself out as I went. This failed. Sort of. The hand drawn guys were just standing around with no purpose. John and Paul (the square and triangle) I really like, but I was limiting myself to 2 shape comics for every hand drawn (though not very stringently).


So, I'm ditching Dart and his cohorts as a failed attempt (John and Paul get to stay). I considered what subject matter I have enough of a knowledge bank on to use as a setting, and what sort of stories I'd be interested in telling. And so, I've created a team of super heroes to write about (sorry guys, not the Tenacious 3) and I'll be unveiling the character designs over the next few days. Then maybe, just maybe, I'll get back to making comics.

Figures crossed.

Unrated

All Unrated means is that they've made a change since the movie got it MPAA approval. We're all just assuming that this means that this version of the movie is raunchier then the R rated version.

I'd like to make a series of Unrated films that are all re-edited to be G rated. My version of Scream will replace the killer everywhere with a cartoon dear who's there to take the victims to gumdrop mountain.

Black on Pink

The other day I noticed the girl who was wearing a sort of lacy see through black top and then an obnoxiously pink bra.

What does that mean? I'm goth but it's laundry day?

Warning: Explicit Content

My brother told me he was thinking of getting a dick tattoo.


I said, "Ok, but don't you think the novelty of having a picture of a penis on your back going to wear out pretty quick."

He didn't think it was that funny, told me (and I could not make this up) that he wanted something that would be surprising before a girl "blew" him.

I suggested the tattoo should say, "If you can read this you already have herpes."

Fairyly Unimpressed

The next time I see a falling star I'm going to wish for some magic fairies.

The last time I just wished for regular fairies and those little guys are useless. They just sit on my coach eating Cheeto's.



I try to be supportive, but it's hard. "Look Fizzlepuff, I am no stranger to the trials and tribulations of being a non-magical creature, but would you please stop peeing in the shower."

Little Lame Posts Are Better Then No Post (Right?)

A guy was complaining that his brain didn't function at 7:30 in the morning. I told him

"My brain works best between the hours of 7 and 9 am.


Sadly I never wake up till 10"

And the Assist



I think this is the end of John's bad luck in love for the moment. Also, I'm trying a slightly smaller image to try and alleviate any side scrolling; hopefully this hasn't compromised readability.

Strike Two

I was this close to having the book be "Flatland - A Romance Beyond This Dimension".

On a technical matter, does anyone find they need to scroll left and right to see the whole comic? I noticed it's a little wider then most other webcomics, and I was wondering whether I'd gone too big for general internet viewing.

Strike One



I have a hard time deciding on whether things on for guys or girls sometimes. And, although it's pretty well received if a girl wears guy clothes, when I make the mistake society is much less forgiving. I have to check my pants whenever I need to remember which side the buttons are supposed to be on.

Not Dead Yet

I've been on vacation. I meant to spend part of this time working on the comic. This is all I accomplished.
This is Sophie.

Check back later for an actual comic with the first appearance of Sophie, and a more regular update schedule.
