I gotta say… I did not expect this chapter to be this long. 44 strips. That ranks it among the very longest of chapters. I think in that you can see the scope of this Invasion storyline. Everything you’ve seen so far… everything in Part One… it’s all been setup for what’s to come. I [...]

Even while Marc is hard at work on strips for Chapter 15, he still continues to crank out these fantastic sketches of the younger incarnations of new characters you’ll be seeing soon. Today it’s Carnation Belle (who, technically, we’ve seen once or twice before…)! Carnation Belle was quite the looker back in the day. Homecoming [...]

This chapter will see the Fogeys begin to embrace a different-or rather, old–way of life as they must step up to defend the Earth from the alien invasion after the Society of Heroes was killed. You’re gonna see some moments you’ve all been [...]

Today’s strip is a tour de force and the result of a lot of hard work on Marc’s part. New characters are always a risky move because they take time away from the characters you love, but I think it’s important to establish that Valhalla is a lot bigger than we’re used to seeing. I [...]

Day 2 of Marc’s break means more extra stuff from just me! Believe it or not, this is the first time I’ve drawn Zurida (and Raptor X, but he’s newer). I’ve inked her, but I’ve never pencilled her until now. It helped me to really appreciate the amazing design artist Rossana Bugini came up with. [...]

Marc, once again, stepped up in a big way with some great new [...]

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.

So, in the script for this strip, I actually did ask [...]
