Apologies! Late post today and this time it wasn’t because of my bumbling. We’ve been experiencing some real technical difficulties in SuperFogeys Central lately and though the strip was more than done on time, it was just impossible to post it until now. Ticks me off when this happens because Marc and I work so [...]
Marc, in case you don’t know, is one of those old fashioned, pen and paper guys. While lots of cartoonists these days are working strictly digital, the SuperFogeys has always been something you can put your hands on. You should see the stacks and stacks of original art I have. I’m sure Marc has the [...]
Some really cool stuff going on in this one. Besides Marc’s typically great art, check out that trophy room! Ten points to whoever can identify where the items came from. This chapter is nearing its conclusion… any guesses as to how it will end?
The modern day Society of Heroes team has a long and spotty history in these parts. I’ve never really detailed what their origin story is (the one separate from the original Society of Heroes) or why they are the way are. Maybe someday I’ll get to do that in an origin. Suffice it to say, [...]
You gotta sympathize with the Society of Heroes. If you had a sweet pad like that, wouldn’t you just want to enjoy it? Alien invasions… giant robots… wouldn’t those all just get in the way? Someone (forgive me for not remembering who) in the comments last week floated the idea that the Society is my [...]
I wasn’t entirely sure if Marc was gonna be able to pull everything off I was asking for in this strip, but darn it if he didn’t get done in one, tiny strip. Well done, sir. Marc and I are thinking of creating a SuperFogeys ashcan comic to hand out at the upcoming New York [...]
I was pretty specific in the script for this one. If I remember correctly, I asked for an X-Men-esque second panel. I have lots of fond memories from the John Byrne-Jim Lee era of great scenes of the X-Men on their blackbird. Then you have CSII doing that with his hair. Cracks me up. Still [...]
I’m trying to remember the last time I did a strip this wordy… and I’m coming up short. As usual, Marc finds a way to make it work anyway. I’m really digging writing for villains lately as well. There’s been a dearth of them up til now. And Star Maiden. Half the fun of any [...]
Marc went with a very-different-than-normal approach to this strip and it works like gangbusters. (Which is an expression I’ve never really understood. If gangbusters work so well, why do don’t we have less gangs?) Fairly big shakeup today. And you thought Monday’s strip was big. Only two strips left in this chapter! Come back for [...]
Those of you who follow Marc on Twitter or Facebook know that he likes to try out lots of different art styles. We’d been looking for an excuse for him to incorporate one of those art styles into the strip and today’s seemed like a natural fit. I think it came off beautifully. For you [...]
I just can’t even comprehend the amount of work that had to go into that second panel. Strips may be small, but that deserves blowing up. Wow. I haven’t counted how many characters Marc managed to cram in there, but I know it’s a lot. I script these things but Marc always, always turns it [...]
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!
