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 [...]
Welcome to Chapter 15; Invasion, Part Two – Inaction Heroes No More! 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 [...]
I don’t know when we’ve ever fit so many characters into a panel so small. I’m not even sure who all of those guys are! That’s exciting. Cami Fans: The real life Cami had her eighth birthday on Monday. On Saturday, we held our 4th Annual Birthday Ball Party in her honor–a half hour party [...]
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. [...]
And boom, like that, old favorites returning, new characters showing up for the first time. This is perhaps the motliest of crews, but together they are enough to strike fear in the heart of even someone as vile and powerful as Suckface. Marc, once again, stepped up in a big way with some great new [...]
For Soviet Sam, the journey to this moment has been a long one. I’d encourage you to click on Sam’s name in the tags (or right here) to check out his past appearances to see the full scope of what this hug might mean to him. Infamous Nefarious commented on Monday’s strip (which saw Sam [...]
Marc here with a brand new strip full of Earth (or Earths) shattering information. Both Brock and I thank you for your patience while the dust settles from Brock’s unemployment situation. For the time being, we’ll be scaling back our schedule a bit to accommodate the unexpected curve balls of life. There will be no [...]
Man, I don’t even know what to say. Ten years ago this week I decided to do a little experiment: I’d draw one comic strip a day for five days, just to see if I could do it. The hook of this little comic strip–old superheroes in a nursing home–was given to me by Tad [...]
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 [...]
Sorry about that, everybody! Yes, the site was down for several days, but it’s back now! And just in time. You wouldn’t want to miss Swifty’s origin, would you? I’m so excited for you all to read this one and see what we’ve cooked up. There are some BIG surprises ahead! THE SUPERFOGEYS ON THE COMICS [...]
I wonder about guys like Hazmarty there in the first panel. What’s his deal? Why “oh dang” and not “oh damn?” What does he think about being led by all these old fogeys? I realize I’m the writer and I could answer these questions, but we just don’t have time for that as we speed [...]
Bet you didn’t think you were gonna feel sorry for a cannibal today, did you? Didn’t think so. See you on Wednesday with 818 – Attack!
This strip is pretty much a Marc showcase. We went Marvel Method on it, but when I saw the final art I thought he’d done such a beautiful job that I didn’t need get into the mix. See you Wednesday with 824 – Knives Out!
