You’re in for some pretty insightful and funny stuff. Marc and I return [...]

Hey everybody, we’re back! I don’t know about you, but I had an absolutely amazing Christmas and New Year’s. There was just something about the season this time around. We got into the spirit of things, reached out to others, sang songs, etc. It was like the last 5 minutes of It’s A Wonderful Life [...]

THIS IS IT! The penultimate strip of Chapter 17: Invasion, Pt. 4 – The End of Lies. This would actually make for a pretty great ending all by itself. Marc was good enough to think up and add the extra beat of Dark Maiden falling to her knees and it just makes this scene just [...]

Took us a little while to get here, but we’ve finally caught up with Dr. Rocket and Captain Spectacular one year later. There was a lot of thought (mostly on Marc’s part) that went into Dr. Rocket’s new look. Points to those of you who can identify the influences. If you’re reading this and scratching [...]

I thought Marc did a particularly stellar job with the inking and the coloring of this strip. Especially in that last panel, where you can really feel Cap’s pain. Cap was one of those characters where I had to really work out in detail the journey he’d taken during the missing year. Obviously, it was [...]

He’s also my Cousin-in-Law, which is how his work first came to my attention. [...]
This chapter is gonna zip back and forth pretty often between Earth-Avalon and Earth-? (so named for now, though the number of this strip–616–has a nice ring to it, don’t you think? (major Captain-America-Wizard-of-Oz points if you get that)), so get your charts out. Actually–hopefully–you shouldn’t need them. If you’ll notice, something I’ve been doing [...]

That’s pretty much exactly right, as today’s strip makes abundantly clear. You guys are so smart. GOOD [...]

Monday was action. Tuesday was humor. Today is the drama. I didn’t realize it until now, but each of the updates for this week’s 10th Anniversary Celebration represents of the three keys SuperFogeys typically plays in. That’s probably why today’s strip felt so right. So, in case you haven’t noticed, today’s strip marks my return [...]

I love this. I love that it takes Money Man–a character usually identified (correctly) as a Batman analogue–and makes him Iron Man. Hilarious alternate take. This comes to us from Alethea Lim, a frequent commenter round these parts under the name “Alecat.” Thanks, Alethea, for being such a great fan! You did SF proud. 10th [...]

I love Death M.D.! I regret we haven’t seen too much of him since his big appearance at Dr. Rocket’s funeral. It’s almost weird seeing him in this context, years later, after SuperFogeys has taken a turn for the more serious. But weird tonal shifts are kind of our stock-in-trade around here.

Happy Halloween! Right at this moment it’s 1am on an early, early Monday morning and I am freezing my butt off while we shoot, of all things, a treehouse scene about 30 yards away from me. Filmmaking keeps things interesting. Thankfully, my role as DIT (the guy who gets the footage backed up and into [...]

Marc has really killed it with this strip (pun acknowledged). He reconfigured the action as scripted to be much better than what I wrote, and that allowed me to delete half the dialogue! Collaboration at its finest. THE FALLEN SON And so we say goodbye to Captain Emo. Longtime fans will recall he was a [...]

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 [...]

Maybe you don’t know about the Harrison Ford Finger of Doom. The fact is, in every Harrison Ford movie (yes, ALL OF THEM–I insist), our favorite Han Solo will inevitably point his index finger at someone and it always, ALWAYS portends DOOM. Massive doom. So, in the script for this strip, I actually did ask [...]

As we enter the last four or five strips of this chapter, Marc and I find that our buffer has run out and we’re really pushing the deadlines hard. I’m excited to see this chapter come to and end and how the ending points to what’s ahead, but I’m also sad to see it happen [...]

This strip is probably the best indicator of what you’re in for in the next chapter. A bunch of alternate versions of our characters have come over to this side of the multiverse and there’s so much potential just in them bouncing off against each other that, as a storyteller, I can’t pass it up.
