Merry Christmas, everybody! (For real this time. If you missed our final regular strip of 2013, then you don’t know just how unmerry things got.) Last year, Marc kicked butt with this classic holiday piece. This year, he does himself one better with a spot-on Dr. Suess impression. “How Dr. Rocket Stole Christmas.” Brilliant. This [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

For those wondering, Dr. Rocket’s look here in One Year Later is based on Dr. No’s from the first James Bond film, “Dr. No.” What he’s wearing is called a nehru jacket. Apologies for my lack of engagement last week. You know those weeks you have that are just kind of awful and don’t leave [...]

Fun fact: the first panel of this strip was originally intended as the last panel of the previous strip. Marc had the great idea of splitting it differently to give the previous strip a heavier, more cinematic feel. I like the moodiness of it, which leads oddly perfectly into the more goofy/gross tone of today’s [...]

I can’t believe Brian is back for more. He’s spoiling us. I don’t know how long it takes him to work up pieces like this, but it looks somewhere on this side of “a lot.” Look at tiny hairs! And the way he rendered the eye mask! The detail is extraordinary. In case you missed [...]

Sometimes, I ask Marc to accomplish the tricky task of communicating a character’s entire state of mind or silent conversation purely through a facial expression. I think in order to write effective character dramas within the comics medium, you’ve GOT to be able to handle facial expressions well. It’s why Marc is such an effective [...]
