Hypnausea is one of the only supervillains that I ever draw out of costume (although we’ve been seeing Scapula in ‘Goth casual’ in recent years); on a slightly-related topic, Hypnausea’s also the only supervillain who has a sizable female-reader following. Sorry, ladies, he’s only fictional!
That’s not true. You draw Throgor out of costume too. :p
Throgor has been wearing the same clothes for seven years. Guess how many times he’s had them laundered.
Does rain count as washing them?
I see him in a small apron every Sunday, sashaying around the laundry room, smiling at old grandmothers as they pass by. 😀
Wait, no.
I’m a man, and Hypnausea is my favourite character as well.
Hypnausea seems to be a lot of people’s favorite (I should do a poll to check that data, but…meh). How is he more popular than the REAL superstars of this comic, like Bombastar or Little Miss Miserable?
Hypnausea IS a costume. I actually prefer the hippie-free-spirit Hyp you draw lately to his “classic” look. If you do figurines, preorder me for one Burning Man Hypnausea.
Remember that Hypnausea ended up naked at Burning Man, and nobody wants a figurine of that!
Well, I don’t think anyone does…
I now have a picture of you doing a Where’s Wally? set of images of Burning Man with Hypnausea streaking in the background. Though I doubt he’d be the only one.
All I see are two big pages full of crazed naked people.
Hooray!
Hypnausea’s been my favorite ever since he rocked the Frank N. Furter costume that one time. 🙂
It was either that or Phantom of the Paradise, but I think Scap makes a better Winslow Leach.
I dunno, I think we’ve seen everybody out of costume a few times. You’ve got also got a large amount of villains who don’t really wear costumes. Jemini, Knuckle Sam, Throgor, Babirus and so on just wear regular clothes.
Tigadactyl was only portrayed once without his costume, but that was because he was in prison.
We’ve seen Toxsick several times out of costume.
The Miscreants were in and out of their costumes depending on what was needed and during “downtime.”
But if we’re talking real time since you’ve been doing Scapula for years now, yeah, Scap and Hyp are the only ones you regularly draw out of costume.
Once again, I’m astounded how some readers out there can prove how much they remember about this series (it’s flattering, really), even to the point where I think you all have a better memory about this comic than I do!
