Oh, Space Pig. We rarely hear from you, but when we do, you’ve always got interesting things to say. Anyone notice his new look? I’ve been wanting to get Space Pig in those goggles forever, and now there’s finally an excuse to do it! See you on Monday!

One of the things I love most about the SuperFogeys Vol. 1 collection (available in finer comics stores soon) is the how much the silent strips stand out and add so much to the pacing of the chapters. It took me a long while to start doing them on the regular (the end of Chapter [...]

More silent panels. Satisfying? No? Refer to my notes in the previous strip for why we’re doing this. The meat of this chapter is coming, and soon. Gotta get through these appetizers first and set everything up. All that said…that’s some beautiful artwork by Marc, no? See you on Monday with 807 – Space Pig [...]

Welcome back to another talking edition of The SuperFogeys. In this episode, Space Pigs speak. I’m pretty sure some of you forgot Space Pigs can even do that. THE FIRST NON-KICKSTARTER SUPERFOGEYS BOOK IS SOLD…AND YOU’LL NEVER GUESS TO WHO This past weekend, our resident artist, Marc Lapierre, held court at the Bing Con in [...]

Don’t mess with Space Pig. Seriously. A big part of what I enjoy about the early part of this chapter is getting Cap and Swifty on a mission together, especially at this point in the story. Swifty has a long history of giving Cap a hard time, but not this more humbled version. And I [...]

Swifty running on water across the National Mall gives me such joy, but Atomic Fly always makes me laugh. He’s a character that’s a true collaboration between Marc and myself, created very much after I gave up art duties. He makes me smile. See you on Wednesday with 820 – Heart-Stopping Great Looks!

I could do a whole spin-off series just with Atomic Fly. I really could. BRIEF HIATUS This is an artistically demanding chapter, no doubt about that. Marc is at the top of his game right now (seriously, this is the best-looking art he’s ever turned in for SF–maybe his best, period!) and as such we’ve [...]

Is Marc simply the best illustrator of action in webcomics? I would argue yes. And the crazy thing is, I didn’t know that about him when I asked him to pick up SF where I left off! His work on his own comic never suggested anything close to this kind of thing. To watch his [...]
