And that’s a wrap for Captain Spectacular and Star Maiden’s journey in the Inevitable Dimension. Now you know how they fell in love and how Cap could break Spy Gal’s heart so terribly when they returned to Earth all those years ago. Big, HUGE thanks to artist Julio Molina-Muscara and colorist MAD Conk for helping [...]
Welcome to SuperFogeys Babies–the most ill-advised SuperFogeys Origins story yet! I know, I know. In the history of hacky ideas, is there one worse than doing baby versions of your characters? Probably not, but why let that stop us? I can only promise this: it’s gonna be FUN. My cohorts this time out are artist [...]
Finally! Your first look at the full roster of SuperFogeys Babies! I think Denver and Jeff did some remarkable design work. I worked up a sketch of the SuperFogeys as babies a couple years ago, but I just used their same costumes. Denver and Jeff designed entirely new looks for each of the characters and [...]
So sorry for the lateness of this page! Artist Denver Brubaker and colorist Jeff Couturier are real pros and had it done in time. I just forgot which day it was and didn’t get it up! That may be the lamest reason for a late page possible, but it’s true. It’s really too bad because [...]
Okay, I know last week I said page 3 was my favorite of this story, but now I think we have a new contender. It’s entirely possible I’m the only one so terribly amused by this story, but I don’t even care. Denver Brubaker’s toddler spin on my designs cracks me up . And Jeff [...]
Denver and Jeff continue to do an incredible job with this script. To my eyes, every script is looking better than the last. It’s just great, fun stuff. Many people warned me against this story, but if nothing else the art justifies it. I hope you’re all having as good a time as I am [...]
One of the things I love about working with a team is seeing what each individual brings to the table. Denver always paces out my scripts in a way I don’t expect and frames things in a way that lends maximum impact. Jeff then brings it to another level with his colors. I had no [...]
Welcome back to SuperFogeys Origins and SuperFogeys Babies. Today’s page reveals the villain behind the Society of Heroes turning into babies, but if you want a refresher on the story so far, go on back to page one. It’s good stuff. Promise. Big thanks to artist Denver Brubaker and colorist Jeff Couturier. Do yourself a [...]
The second panel makes this page for me. The dialogue is pretty consistent with what I originally scripted, but artist Denver Brubaker and colorist Jeff Couturier took it to another level by actually visualizing what Dr. Rocket is describing. I laughed out loud when I saw it. Nice work, guys! That last panel is a [...]
This is it! The penultimate page of SuperFogeys Babies! Next week… the conclusion. However… there’s no way artist Denver Brubaker and colorist Jeff Couturier are going to top this page. When I saw the art for this, my jaw dropped. Hope you guys dig it half as much. Speaking of Denver, once SuperFogeys Babies wraps [...]
Aaaaaannnnd that’s a wrap, folks! The end of SuperFogeys Babies… or is it? As you can see, the door is wide open for a part two. If my partners in crime Denver Brubaker and Jeff Couturier (if you haven’t yet checked out their solo work, what’s wrong with you???) are ever up for it, I [...]
This is it! The momentous return of SuperFogeys Origins! I wrote extensively about the whys and wherefores of the Origins’ return in this blog post right here. What I’m not sure I made totally clear is that you really have the artist of this very page to thank, Jason Williams. His recent fan art really [...]
The return of SuperFogeys Origins continues! You might have missed the first page of this story (dropping new pages on holidays isn’t the best idea), but you can check it out right here. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Spy Gal’s father. Hopefully, last week, you all took the opportunity to reread Spy Gal’s [...]
This page scares me. I don’t know what half those tools do and I’m just frightened. In case I haven’t made the point well enough before, I really do recommend reading Spy Gal’s origin from a few years back. You’ll get a much better perspective on the story being told here. The art on this [...]
Big news for fans of this story! Originally slated to run 9 pages, we’ve now expanded it to 10 pages! More bang for your buck! Well, sort of. Not like you’re paying for this. (You cheapskate.) But it’s still cool. This story gets a bit more twisty than it’s letting on right now. Just you [...]
Manny! If you’re scratching your head and saying “Who?” then you haven’t read Spy Gal’s origin! When last we saw Manny he was… not so alive, really. Apparently, he got better. Because it’s comics! Who doesn’t!? The art on this page, as in this whole story, is by a man so magnificent in both body and [...]
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT NEXT WEEK: On account of Marc’s birthday (Happy Birthday, Marc!) and a convention he’s attending this weekend, we’re taking Monday off. Regular schedule resumes on Wednesday! REGULAR POST: This is probably my favorite page Jason has illustrated for this story so far (his, too). I grew up on comics with lots of [...]
So sorry for the late post! We are basically never late around here and it pains me when it happens, but in this case it couldn’t be helped. Thanks for your patience. You’ll recall that this story takes place just a few months after this story, so Spy Gal is not so very far removed [...]
And there he is, the mastermind behind the whole thing. Some of you had no idea, some of you guessed straight off. That’s okay, the real reason for this story is the why, not the what. The why is coming. Only two pages left! The art on this page, as in this whole story, is [...]
So sorry this is late! I’m still getting used to my new schedule (or rather lack of it) and posting the page just slipped my mind. Even after Jason was kind enough to take over lettering duties while I’m not able. Hoping to get that cleared up soon. What do you think of Money Man’s [...]
Well, what did you think of the return of SuperFogeys Origins? Triumphant return or shoulda’-stayed-dead fiasco? It was really important to me to do a story that shed some light on Money Man’s character. He’s a student of people, a psychologist in a way, and a little manipulative when he needs to be. All for [...]
Sorry about that, everybody! Yes, the site was down for several days, but it’s back now! And just in time. You wouldn’t want to miss Swifty’s origin, would you? I’m so excited for you all to read this one and see what we’ve cooked up. There are some BIG surprises ahead! THE SUPERFOGEYS ON THE COMICS [...]
Swifty origin continues with AMAZING art from T.L. Collins. I’m gonna have to show you guys the full version of past speedsters. T.L. did some great design work. How are you guys liking the origin so far? What questions are you hoping are answered? See you next week with Pg. 3 “The Prophecy!”
Well! The site went down AGAIN, but hopefully you’re back to see this new update. We’ve heard about the prophecy before, and seen a story from Swifty’s adult life to see a bit of how it plays out for him, but we’ll obviously be exploring it much further in this origin story to, I think, [...]
Argh. So many site outages lately. We’re working on it, we’re working on it… but at least we’re back now, right?? Moving quick through the decades here, but I think we’re gonna stay in the Sixties for a little while… See you next Monday (I hope!) with Pg. 5 “Promise!”
Okay, I’m tearing up here… T.L. rocks the art once again. The way his art has progressed over the years… his characters look straight out of Pixar to me. Anyone else seeing that? See you next Monday with Pg. 6 “Date or Fight?”
UPDATE: Yes, the site is broken. We are deeply sorry. The newest comics are always published on our Patreon, and you can view this particular comic right here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/swifty-origin-pg-19339505. Hopefully, this will all be cleared up soon. The Pink Shade! Now we’re getting somewhere! No Swifty Origin would be complete without diving into his history with [...]

Hey everybody, I know the main site is still broken and comics aren’t displaying. The is the worst breakdown we’ve ever had and I hope it’s fixed soon. Thank you for your patience. Please, please head over to this link on Patreon to see it. While Marc and I appreciate your support monetarily through that [...]
Hey everybody! Yup, the site is STILL broken. So. Aggravating. I wish I knew when the solution will present itself, but once again you can see the latest page on Patreon for free right here. If you do want more SuperFogeys goodness, a fair bit of our archive is still going up over on Webtoon, [...]
UPDATE: Working now! I’m sure you’re all as tired of this as I am by now, but yes, the site is still broken. As usual, you can find the latest page for free on Patreon. This is a pretty important page, so I’m especially disappointed it doesn’t get to go where it belongs. Your patronage, [...]
Nice to have the site back! Especially for this page.
This page syncs up nicely with the origin story, “Swifty and the Prophecy.”
Such a beautiful page. Hats off to T.L.
T.L. Collins is just the man. Straight up.
Thus endeth the Swifty Origin. What did you guys think?
Surprise! We’re going on hiatus, but T.L. felt bad that a couple of pages were a little late and so he worked up this AWESOME Swifty Origin cover as an apology! How cool is that? THOUGHTS ABOUT THE SWIFTY ORIGIN The Swifty Origin was in the works for a long, long time before it got [...]
