WELCOME TO SUPERFOGEYS ORIGINS, LEE CHEROLIS! For you new readers (and there have been a lot of you lately), Back in May of this year I ran a contest to see choose who would draw the next, great origin–Spy Gal’s. Over the course of several weeks, many wonderful artists submitted their own version of Spy [...]
LEE CHEROLIS STEPS UP HIS GAME! How beautiful is that page? I’ll admit I wasn’t entirely sure about Lee’s approach to color on this art–it’s a lot stronger than what I’m used to. But I gotta say my reservations were unfounded. He knows his art well and this is just firing on all cylinders. And [...]
GORGEOUS PAGE I’ve just been really knocked out by the work Lee Cherolis has been doing on the art for this story. Hope you guys agree. See you on Thursday with SuperFogeys 276! A special visitor is coming to Valhalla…
THE THING THAT AMAZES ME ABOUT THE WORK THAT LEE CHEROLIS IS DOING ON THIS ORIGIN… …is how wonderful the color is. The pages look one way in their black and white form, but then Lee adds all kinds of dimension and details with his color. It really is the whole package. Too often in [...]
IS IT HOT IN HERE? Greeting, SuperFans! I do believe the sexy quotient has gone up considerably today. Blame the amazing Spy Gal origin artist Lee Cherolis. And me. A little. I mean, I guess I wrote it. I think we’re skirting the edge of acceptable content here, but we don’t do these things for no [...]
SUPERFOGEYS TURNS FOUR, I TURN TO YOU In case you missed it (I did), the SuperFogeys turned four last month, on the 22nd of September. September 22nd, 2006 was the first day I ever posted a SF strip online–on MySpace, if you can believe it. And now here we are. I’ve reached the point in [...]
PAGE 7, “BOOM” In a lot of ways this is my favorite page of this story. I think that’s true for Lee as well. I think it’s fair to say that we’ve gone into some uncharted territory here (for The SuperFogeys) and that’s kind of fun to see. Don’t you think? WALLPAPER AND DONATIONS UPDATE Well, [...]
THE SPY GAL ORIGIN ENTERS ITS LAST ACT We’re in the home stretch now! Just 3 more pages after this one and then You’ll know everything you need to know about Spy Gal before she joined the Society of Heroes (if not everything there IS to know). The amazing art is, always, by Lee Cherolis who [...]
UPDATE! THE SPY GAL FAN ART YOU HAVE TO SEE! This is just came across my inbox. Inspired by your comments on today’s Spy Gal page, SuperFan Gwen Patton (the creative force behind Jenny Everywhere’s Infinite: Quark Time) came up with this fan art featuring Spy Gal eating fried chicken. Gwen calls this a new [...]
NOT THE LAST PAGE…BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN One of the things Lee did after he read my script for the Spy Gal Origin was to immediately demand that we split the last page into two. My challenge as a writer is always to script these things into the number of pages the artist is willing [...]
THE SPY GAL ORIGIN COMES TO A CLOSE How about a big round of applause for Lee Cherolis for the great job he did on this story? From the Spy Gal Art Contest in May until now, it’s been a long road for Lee to get to this point and I for one think did a [...]
