That profile pic of Jerry is my most favorite drawing of him that I’ve done. It just captures him so perfectly. The first mission of the Society of Heroes is a tale I want to tell. It should appear as a backup story in a future SuperFogeys book. Watch for that.

UPDATE on 11/2/12 Welcome to SuperFogeys Origins, the rerun edition. Take a little break from new updates for (hopefully) just a bit, and I thought it might be fun to revisit some of my favorite SF: Origins. The Money Man origin is really the one that started it all. Before this, his only appearance was [...]

Jun 27, 11 | 328 – Pairing Off |
Well, what did you think of the return of SuperFogeys Origins? Triumphant return or shoulda’-stayed-dead fiasco? It was really important to me to do a story that shed some light on Money Man’s character. He’s a student of people, a psychologist in a way, and a little manipulative when he needs to be. All for [...]

One of the things noted in a recent comment (forgive me for not remembering who said it) was that this storyline is making SuperFogeys the inverse of the “mirror universe” trope in which alternate realities are generally worse. That’s pretty much exactly right, as today’s strip makes abundantly clear. You guys are so smart. GOOD [...]

Lots of juice still left in this chapter. Unemployment update: I’m still unemployed and working hard on fixing that. Some recent [...]

Man, this is a real trip down memory lane. Longtime readers will recognize these scenes from throughout both SuperFogeys and SuperFogeys Origins. Newbies, don’t worry. Knowing all these references or not knowing them isn’t going to impact future reading. But, for those who want to know, I present to you: annotations! Panel 1: This is [...]

This is a subject that’s been in much debate in the comments lately. Is Jerry at fault for the things he’s done? Do you agree or disagree with Money Man?

Hey, everyone! The intense debate that followed last week’s strip took me a bit by surprise. I opted out of commenting because I didn’t want to give weight to one view over another, but at some point today I’m finally going to dive in and try my hand at a little opining. The issue of [...]

Suddenly, Jerry is a very popular guy. Won’t he be so pleased when he finds out? Great shot at the end there by Marc. That’s a total hero shot. And shirtless! You’re welcome. Chapter 19 – The Man Who Sold the World ends next week!

Yikes! Sorry, folks. Didn’t mean to take so long to get some notes up. The big revelation with this strip hearkens allllll the way back to this strip, when we saw for the first (and only) time what the Thrice Evil of Earth-Abaddon would be like were certain controls not in place. And now you [...]

Today, Chapter Nineteen comes to a close. More than any other chapter, I think this one may be best read in one sitting. You can start it at the beginning right here. This has been, for me anyway, a vastly different chapter from any we’ve done before. I was going through old SuperFogeys files just [...]

Classic case of denial? Or something else? As per usual, Marc nails the comedy moments with some nice acting. Look at the progression in Dark Maiden’s body language across these panels, from stooped to an arched back we know exactly what she’s thinking a feeling without even reading the dialogue. I love it.

I think I’m finally enjoying writing Dark Maiden. I admit I’ve struggled with her a bit since she came on the scene. Star Maiden was so, so much fun to write and I miss her, but change is good and I knew there had to be a change there. Enter: Dark Maiden. And now, just [...]
