we are in dire need of some new media trend. we've done pirates, we've done cowboys; we've gone through two whole zombie revivals. aliens and space themes have basically been a constant since at least the 1950s, as have robots and evil AIs. we went pretty heavy on vampires for a while. we've also done dinosaurs, ninjas, musicals, wizards, sea creatures, ancient rome, ancient egypt, middle ages out the wazoo, entirely too much world war II, we're currently overdosing on our superhero phase, we've done monsters (misunderstood), monsters (radioactive), fake guy in the real world, real guy travels to fake world, caves & mining, vikings, what if you were really small, genre parody as a genre, sand, New York, time travel, something racist goes down in the jungle, neurodivergent detective, buddy cops, crooked cops, gangsters, bank heists in particular, kid has powers, revolt against the corporate world, portals, social insects, dragons, the British, global apocalypse, martial arts, roadtrip as self-discovery, Jesus, clones, clowns, babysitting goes wrong, demonic possession, ghosts of all kinds, talking animals, fucking with the stock market, restaurant ownership, dwarves, planes, and spies. where do we go from here. what's our next big thing
back in the days of Multi-User Dungeons if you reached max level you were granted the role of Wizard, which basically gave you full admin and game dev privileges. we were trusting like that
Keeper -- a short comic about an angel meeting a robotic lighthouse keeper that doesn't know the world has already ended. Made in about 18 hours for a 24-hour 24-page* black and white comic challenge (that I arrived late to, ha.)
*the actual submission does not include the cover, which was created after the fact for this post.
This was a really great learning experience as someone who's... never really made a completed comic. I ended up really attached to the story by the end of the project (possibly due to all-nighter deliriousness lol) and ultimately am very proud of what I made.There are some things I'd still like to change, particularly text placement, but in keeping with the spirit of the challenge I've elected to leave it as is.
This is the second time I have portrayed a woman who has nothing to do with the game, following the world view in the soundtrack. Personally, I like this kind of project theme that’s just on the edge of not being overly vulgar, and I hope that I can include this “slight thrill” in more of my work.

every time I see a photo of someone's weird sex doll my mind conjures a scenario where their house is on fire and they're trapped in their room full of smoke coughing and hacking and you can barely see anything and a fireman with an absurdly massive absolutely bodacious ass kicks down the door and rushes in, cheeks clappin like god's thunder, and bellows "HOLD STILL I'LL GET YOU OUT OF HERE" and walks past the person and throws the sex doll over his shoulders and leaves
this post is going to stay up forever, but I'm going to reblog this post with a picture of a funny cat I drew wearing big boots. the reblog that has the cat in it will only be available for 5 minutes so good luck if you manage to see or find that version.
I'll add the cat to this post about a minute after posting this. I need to add an image description so it'll take a sec
