Holy stinking snot bunnies. We just hit 600 strips. 600 STRIPS! How did this happen? How is it even possible that SuperFogeys is still going strong almost 7 years after it first debuted? I’ll tell you how: Marc Lapierre. Today marks the publication of Marc’s 300th SuperFogeys strip. Those of you with long memories will [...]

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 [...]

My scripts are usually pretty detailed, but this is one of those times Marc and I worked in the ‘Marvel Style’–I give Marc the general idea and he illustrates it accordingly, deciding how he wants to break things into panels and what he wants to show. I’ve learned to do this as much as possible [...]

This is the big moment we’ve been ramping up to (and fearing) for several chapters now. Alt. Thrice Evil. On Earth-Abbadon. It doesn’t get scarier. There’s nothing holding him back now. See you on Monday with 676 – “Jerry, Meet Thrice Evil”

This is one of those strips I can easily point to as an example of the character taking over a bit. I knew I wanted to Thrice Evil and Jerry to meet, but it wasn’t until I started scripting it that Jerry’s cheery greeting came out as absolutely how he confronts our Big Bad. It [...]

Do we make our own choices are we subject to the whims of fate? And, anyway, what is fate? For Jerry, fate might be described as a three-pronged orange evil from another dimension. You might call it God. Or karma. Or whatever. But the question is, even with the influences and the influencers in our [...]

This new chapter started out with a mighty punch for the simple reason that I wanted to signal to the reader that this is the kind of chapter you’re in for: a punching chapter full of action and destruction (and a little intrigue). So, of course, given all that, you’ve got to have the moment [...]

I love the detail of the action here. When all read together, the “silent action” of the past few strips will hold up pretty well. Marc’s spatial awareness as an artist is top notch, allowing him to craft some truly terrific fight scenes. Trust me, only gets better from here. 10th ANNIVERSARY OVER! And hey, [...]

One of Thrice Evil’s more frightening powers–one that we’ve seen demonstrated before–is his ability to induce (often horrific) seemingly real-life visions in the minds of others. Percy is only the latest victim. He won’t be the last. And… just to drop a hint… could there be a false image we’ve seen since this alternate Thrice [...]

New looks for President Reed and Star Matron! Couldn’t send them into battle in their civvies, now could we? The new uniforms came together pretty quickly–Marc is a real ace when it comes to character design–but I did have feelings about President Reed’s hat. In Marc’s original design, he was hatless. That didn’t feel quite [...]

I never get tired of seeing Spy Gal (or, in this case, Avalon Spy Gal) in the white outfit. It just looks so COOL. This is an episode Marc made so much cooler. Originally, I had both Suckfaces kind of grabbing Percy out of the air and throwing him down to the ground, but Marc [...]

Something I’m really excited about is seeing this chapter collected. More than perhaps any other chapter, I wrote it and paced it for the print version. Today’s episode is a prime example of that. It’s especially designed to lead into the next episode and give it maximum impact. May not seem like much in this [...]

For those keeping track of the geography, yes, Avalon Thrice Evil did just sail over about 3,000 miles of terrain and land smack dab in the middle of the Las Vegas battle. In retrospect, this might be a bit too abrupt of a transition. Wouldn’t surprise me if we end up doing an in between [...]

And thus ends the incursion from Earth-Avalon. I’ll admit the Earth-Avalonians stuck around longer than I thought they would, taking up multiple chapters. They’ve been so embedded in [...]
