SINISTER MONSTER DOOM LEGION pt.5
Welcome all, to the 100th comic post of SCAPULA!
This is the first SCAPULA comic posted here that was not drawn on paper and scanned into the computer. The entire thing was done with SketchbookPro and Photoshop; while I think the results are pretty nice I’m going to keep drawing comics the old fashioned way (for now).
Wait a minute! What’s Scapula doing here?! Didn’t I say we weren’t going to see him around? Well, quit whining, because he really isn’t around. I don’t know if the scene makes things too obvious or too confusing, so tune in next week to find out what the holy hell’s going on!
In other news, the first SCAPULA book is officially completed! The book is a fine-printed, full color 60 page collection of the best SCAPULA adventures, plus a brand new, exclusive full-length story “The Kid Who Clobbers Scapula”, available only in this publication! The book will be released at the upcoming Alternative Press Expo (A.P.E.) this month and shortly afterward made available on-line (for those of you not in California). If you plan on attending A.P.E., come on by and get your book signed and sketched!
Is that Scapula, being tormented by the evil puppet?
The artwork is just amazing in this one. The eyes and the ground of the sock monster is just so cool.
Awesome comic today. very nice job doing it all digital for this one. I’m with you tho on doing the comic the old fashion way. 3rd Panel reminds me of a Dio cover or something.
@Hoomi It is indeedy. The context of this battle will be made clear next week. In the meantime just enjoy the scary puppet.
@evandenoob Thank you very much. I had a lot of fun with it, plus it’s nice to do some digital painting.
@Roland Gracias! I try to do both, but for the sake of lay-out I generally have more luck putting it down on paper first.
That’s quite possibly the WORST motivational speech I’ve ever heard a sock puppet (even an evil one) deliver ! 🙂
*rendered speechless… jaw on ground! WOW! o.O
Congrats on 101. Is Scapula the puppet master?
Love this. Checking out your site, love your work. 🙂
@SpilledInky The one and only thing clear about today’s comic is that Darkevilhelldeath-Man is a grade-A A-hole.
Sadly, I’ve heard his words from quite a few jerks in my life (and none of them were sock puppets).
@jynksie Thanks man! Now pick up your jaw before the dog does something to it!
@Bearman Scapula is a “mastur” in only one sense, really…
@houseofmuses Pam! Great to see you around here! Sift through all you’d like, and for you folks out there, mosey on over and check out ‘House of the Muses’, a supremely impressive webcomic (makes my scene above look like Family Circus).
Only Scapula could be controlled by his own sock puppet–or IS IT his sock puppet??
@macsnafu Ahhhhh…you just might be on to something, my friend! But what could he be? An alien? A mutant? A midget in a sock puppet costume? Time will tell.
I thought I had left a comment on this beautiful work of art earlier. Ack! I must be slipping in my old age. This comic is one of the most sweetly rendered pieces I’ve seen come from your end. It’s breath-taking and I’m extremely jealous as I drool over it. Nice!
By the way, your guest strip is next! 🙂
@George All it takes is the will to do so…and the madness of an outhouse rat!
Uh oh! Looks like I’ll be in the hotseat for George’s guest comics on Wednesday. What do you say, dear readers? Check out the always hilarious ‘Addanac City’ for my less-than-hilarious guest spot!
This looks absolutely breathtaking! Congratulations on your 100th (101st) comic! I’ll be sure to go through Scapula in its entirety the first chance I get! 🙂
Amazing artwork. You keep outdoing yourself like that you’ll never be able to catch up! ;`) Also loved your take on Hank. Very moody!
@Carlo Welcome, compadre! Glad to see you around these parts! Take your time with the Archives, and I hope you enjoy the weird, weird stories you find.
Carlo is the creator of “Callous Comics”, so go read it, folks!
@Jande Remember, it’s not a race, my friend. Just do your comics YOUR WAY. That’s all there is to it.
…and besides, self-deprecation is MY racket, sister, so don’t think about taking my flagellation whips!
Sorry, Aidan! I forgot to congratulate you on your 101st Comic! That is certainly a milestone to be proud of in this sea of fly-by-night webcomics. Way to go!
LOL! I think you better re-read my post, Aidan. I didn’t say “I’d” never catch up. I said “YOU’LL” never catch up. LOL It was a dog chasing his tail joke. ;`)
Self-deprecation comes in the toolkit that makes us human. And anyway, I don’t care. I’m gonna admire your work whether you like it or not! So there!
And I also forgot to congratulate you! Congratulations! :`)
@George Here’s hoping I make it to 200 (..or, uh, 201). I wouldn’t have done it without everyone support, so big thanks to all of you!
@Jande Ah…so you did. The type on the screen is really small, and I’m dyslexic so it’s easy to muddle up the words. Sorry.
Thank you anyhow.
Aidan, every time I miss a strip and come back after two weeks, your art takes another huge leap. Wow.
@Dan Awww, shucks.
See you again in a couple of weeks!
My God, Sir. I made this comment just to say how amazing you are!
@MariMariMariko42 Aww, thankya so much!
