SINISTER MONSTER DOOM LEGION pt.15
Wow…that was a LOT of dialogue. To quote The Great Muppet Caper, “It’s plot exposition. It has to go somewhere.”
In any event, the ball is now rolling and Darkevillhelldeath-Man’s Master Plan will soon be made frighteningly clear (in the meantime just know that he’s a rotten little bastard, and for all of you easily-influenced readers out there: DON’T EVER DO WHAT THIS ROTTEN LITTLE BASTARD IS DOING OR YOU WILL GO STRAIGHT TO “AYTCH-EEY-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS”).
Well, *I* read all the dialogue. I think DEHD-Man is confused. Women like a man with a big one, not a man who is a big one.
So Scapula is Edgar huh. I think I would stick with Scapula.
You would think and evil mastermind could afford a decent HD set though.
Spooky, funny, well drawn and the lighting is awesome! Psycho-thriller at its best. Wouldn’t a certain fuzzy-logic dictate that when “Edgar” goes, so does DEHD-man?
@Hoomi -I hate to see that idea spread any further (unless you meant “with a big intelligence”?)- size may matter to some women, but most would rather you all learned how to use them effectively for a woman’s pleasure.. ;`)
Hahaha – every emperor worth his … uh … imperial salt … is a big fan of dialogue!
Also I’ve been thinking about switching to skwint. I hear good things. 🙂
I did go thru the entire dialogue. It reminded me of how I get sometimes (and will get soon), but it’s necessary as you say in order to deliver some exposition. No problem, though, cuz I like to read as much as I like to draw, so it was fine with me.
Big ups to Keong! The comic does look sharper and crisper now for some reason, and the wording is easily legible.
@Hoomi It all depends on who you’re talking to. I thought only girls in high school were attracted to guys who were major league a-holes…but sadly, high school was but a microcosm of the real world, and to this day guys who are major league a-holes still get their pick first.
Incidentally, were you saying Darkevilhelldeath-Man is ACTING like a dick, or just…looks phallic? I was afraid readers would think he looked too much like a gigantic peepee back in the 100th comic post.
@Bearman He gets nearly everything he owns from Goodwill. I think if he had any real money, he would have given his evil side a much more imposing form than a dirty sock with ping pong eyes. Give it up for the budget supervillain!
@Jande Definitely some logic to that point, but it all depends on how you interpret Darkevillhelldeath-Man’s disposal of Edgar.
Incidentally, all of my friends just call Darkevilhelldeath-Man “the sock puppet”, so I don’t mind if you readers also refer to him as such (as for me, well..I created the little pest, so now I’m stuck typing out his name! Oy…I hate that Darkevillhelldeath-Man!).
@SpilledInky It’s always a cherished villain tradition to lay out your master plan to people who really have no right or need to know about it in the first place. Bad guys just get chatty and need to reach out. I think if supervillains really existed they would be constant bloggers.
@George This is really the last dose of exposition in this story (well…maybe a tad more next week). From here on after, though, the boulder is rolling and things are going to get frenetic!
Again, Keong, speearr (whatever you prefer), awesome advice. Thanks!
D.E.H.D.-Man is the scariest little mind-controller since Krang in TMNT!
You say that as if being text heavy is a bad thing! It’s expected for this kind of comic. Isn’t it?!? …and thanks for clearing up the text controversy, I thought mine eyes were failing me! o.O
@ Jande – I was being facetious for the purpose of the wordplay. I don’t really believe most women are obsessed with size, and a number of years back when the penis enlargement surgery was a fad, most of the guys who had it done didn’t do so because the woman in their life wanted them to. They had the surgery because they were concerned about what the other guys at the gym thought.
Odd. When we were going to the gym, I didn’t pay any attention to other guys’ junk, and didn’t care what they thought about mine. I figure, so long as my wife isn’t complaining, why worry about anyone else? I also learned a LONG time ago, that a guy who knows what to do with his hands is far more appreciated than a guy with a big penis that thinks his dick is the end-all of sexual pleasure.
@ Aidan – Yeah, over the years in the factory, I’ve seen a lot of the attractive women that, for whatever reason, keep ending up with guys that treat them like crap. Of course, I’ve also seen a lot of physically attractive women that revealed how really ugly they are the minute they open their mouths. In some cases, these gals end up with assholes because decent guys wouldn’t put up with them (just like decent gals wouldn’t put up with the asshole guys).
Hahaha women-are-always-needing-to-pee joke spotted 😀
Also the dirty sock grimace is very well done, I can feel her disgust.
Glad to be of service with the legibility thing. It’s no biggie. Thanks for the awesome link! Keong or speearr is fine 😉
I gave myself two cookies, although I’m not sure I deserved them. Can’t wait to see how feasible his plan is. My notebook is ready…
@Dan First off, twenty nostalgia points for the TMNT reference. I didn’t have Krang in mind when I designed DEHD-Man, but the similarities are there: both are evil, whiney little bastards who manipulate more badass villains into doing their hard work for ’em!
God, I wish I could find all of my old Turtles action figures. All I have left now are Bebop and Rocksteady, who I keep safely on my bookshelf to watch over and comfort me.
@jynksie “This kind of comic”?! What’s that supposed to mean? You a racist or somethin’?! I go ova’ dere and whup y’all upside the head!
Sorry, got my mind mixed up. Yes, I suppose SCAPULA gets pretty wordy at times, but trust me, the action is going to rev up like never before.
@Hoomi I’m just waiting to see if the old folks homes still carry on this tradition. Are there bullies, nerds, floozies and the like in octagenarian equivalents? That might be really funny.
@speearr I never thought of that…I guess if your theory is correct, they’re all due for a potty break! DEHD-Man may set bathroom trips for his own crew, but these poor ladies are chained up! What an evil little creep!
@macsnafu Why, of COURSE you deserve two cookies! Why not?! You can even have THREE cookies, if you go do your homework and help your sister take the asbestos off the ceilings!
…but seriously, don’t do that. Have cookies instead.
Oh yuck… was dirty sock D.E.H.D guy givin’ some tongue… blah! But I like how Andy is on the TV there… heh, heh.
Poor Edgar/Scap. What lengths some people will go to for some nookie.
Oh, and I didn’t mind the extra text… it was very informative!
@squidrowmommy Andy Rooney may just be in cahoots with the vile sock puppet. That would be an AWESOME plot twist!
You wouldn’t believe what some guys will do to get attention…not that I have any stories to tell on the matter…ahem…
Ah ha! Andy Rooney and Scap… ahem, I mean D.E.H.D sock puppet evil mastermind hand. “And here’s another thing… (whining like Andy) “Why do evil sock puppets wanna take girls hostage… ?”
I love the look of panel 4. it really puts forth the felling you were trying to convey. Also if there is one thing that I love about your visual storytelling is the little things, such as the picture on the cell phone, you didn’t have to put that image on there, but it adds nice little finishing touches to the overall presentation. bravo sir.
@squidrowmommy After all the terror and crime the Sinister Monster Doom Legion has committed, the only coverage they get on “60 Minutes” is Andy Rooney’s rant. Man, that’s got to hurt the ol’ self-esteem…
@Roland Thank you very much, good sir. The picture of the bare woman on Toxsick’s cell phone screen saver appeared previously as a painting in “Jemini’s Beautiful Story”; apparently Tox visited the gallery and took a snapshot. Continuity is fun!
