People crash through walls a lot in this saga. (<–I’m sure there are more.) You’ve met the Earth-Avalon version of the Lodge of Doom… now, here’s the Society of Heroes. To save you the trouble of looking through the tags, from left to right that’s Ms. Missile, Swifty, Raptor XII, General Will, Captain Spectacular II, [...]
There’s a little bit of an info drop in that first panel, but forget about that BECAUSE HOLY CRUD THAT SECOND PANEL! The only bad thing about it is it’s so small. Marc draws battles and combat as good as the best and he did not disappoint here. The new coloring technique he’s been using [...]
For a second there I thought this was strip #666. Would have been appropriate if it was. I have to say it’s crazy fun to work on this alternate reality. I love what Marc did here with the Thrice Cave. OF COURSE it looks just like Thrice Evil’s head from the outside. Y’know, Thrice, that [...]
Swifty was gone so long from the strip that I kind of forgot how much fun he can be to write. There’s a lot of dialogue crammed into this strip, but his stuff, though incidental, is my favorite. I guess even when you bring a ton of new characters onto the stage, they can’t really [...]
Once again, Brock keeps the twists and surprises coming. I mean, here we have two versions of Swifty in the same place at the same time and not a single “@#$%!” was uttered! Unbelievable!
Just for the record: this is 100% what I would do if I ever went to the White House. What woman doesn’t like to hear she’s sane? Hey! Guess what? SuperFogey is a featured free comic on Comixology! How cool is that? Don’t forget to rate the book if you pick it up!
Hey everyone, I want to take away from today’s strip (I count at least two revelations! One I’m pretty sure some of you saw coming, and one I don’t think anyone did), but I wanted to let you know about a little situation here at SuperFogeys Central. Unfortunately, in a double whammy, my wife and [...]
This isn’t any kind of secret, but at the same time I’m not sure anyone has noticed that Swifty is the one character who has not changed one bit since Chapter 1. There’s no arc for him, no softening of his hard edges. Swifty is Swifty. Does that mean he can NEVER change? No, but [...]
Swifty. Nothing if not consistent. If you missed it–and because it’s such a big deal it deserves repeating–Marc’s art was recently used by Marvel without his persmission for their 75th Anniversary television special. All of his friends jumped on this and took to social media and the result was quite surprising. You can read all [...]
Ever wonder what the Earth-Avalon Nurse Carter would be like? Well, it doesn’t matter if you did or not because here she is. Of course the real news is all this death and destruction. It’s terrible. We can’t lose Captain Spectacular II, ON THIS OR ANY OTHER WORLD! COMING TO A THEATER NEAR YOU… A [...]
Writing–and seeing–two different Soviet Sams is a lot of fun. They are basically completely different characters. Also a lot of fun is General Will vs. Captain Spectacular. One man with all the power who struggles to be the hero, the other with none of the power who takes his heroing seriously. Next week: Spy Gal [...]
Swifty is back! It’s actually been awhile since he was in the same time and dimension as the other Fogeys, believe it or not. He only briefly returned after the one year time jump, but then shuttled off to Earth-Avalon almost immediately. He was great fun over there, but I’ve missed having the guy around [...]
There’s more to come from Star Matron meeting Dark Maiden, but this is a fun primer. Marc did some fun stuff in this one. I love Starbrighter’s reaction in panel 2. Not hard to picture that one animated. MY CRAZY WEEKEND So, like a lot of you, I have family coming into town for Christmas. [...]
No, this wasn’t “our” Money Man, but he was the Money Man Sam spent the most time with. Still, he came in late. I remember when my dad died. I had been away from home for a while and when I returned for the funeral there were those present whom I didn’t know–those who had [...]
Who is the most powerful SuperFogey in just about any Universe? Why, it’s Star Maiden, of course. Or Dark Maiden. Or Star Matron. Whatever you call her, she’s Elora and she’s here to kick your butt. Only three strips left in this chapter! See you on Wednesday with 729 – “After the Battle!”
