Completing this particular patron’s collection of classic “mix-em-up” villains, like Super-Skrull, Mimic, Super Adaptoid… actually, that’s it, I think? Also, there’s probably more, I’m just unaware.
All of this month’s Patreon reward sketches were done using a new fountain pen I recently bought with some fancy refillable ink, and I had some learnin’ to do. Apologies to all involved.
Been thinking about The Tick a lot lately, and it was just serendipitous that the patron asked for him. The Tick is very special to me, but I didn’t want to just draw him standing or posing. I consulted a friend about what I should do with this sketch. He suggested Tick reading a comic and eating Andy Capp Hot Fries.
As I worked it out, originally, I was going to have Tick reading a Deadpool comic (fresh on the brain from the newest movie) and not finding it funny. Then, for some reason Savage Dragon came into my mind.
So I made this political commentary. Views expressed by The Tick ARE the views of the creator, when it comes (cums?) to that book. I stopped reading Dragon around 20 years ago, but still flip through it on occasion, and lately, every single issue is about Mickey Mouse being a rapist, dripping labias, and cumshots. Eww. Gross. I mean, Tarot, Witch of the Black Rose is telling Erik Larsen to ease up.
Anyway. Spoon.
I love stretchy superheroes. Except Ms. Marvel. Nothing against her, I just think it’s a dumb power for her. I like Cinematic Ms. Marvel’s power set better. Sue me.
One of my very first original characters when I was in the 4th grade was named “Stretcharella”.
TM & Copyright Eric Shonborn. Don’t you fucking dare steal my ideas.
It my berfday.
…uh…
wellp.
Fuck.
Lessee. In the last year, I got dumped twice, my car needed a whole-ass engine replaced, my cat died suddenly, and my dad’s lung cancer relapsed. Also, I’ve been getting injections into my eyeballs once a month. So yeah. Fuck my life. I am desperately, crushingly, devastatingly lonely.
Anyway, I just wanted to draw Black Canary. No reason, no motive.
Let’s see how age 46 crushes me.
Just felt like drawing a Supergirl.
I don’t know a thing about this character. I remember it coming out around the same time as INVINCIBLE. I remember it had a terrible-looking CGI ‘toon pilot/tv movie. And Phil Hester was involved.
Kinda fun to draw.
Yes, there was a small part of me that thought to draw Nu52 “twink” Lobo.
Or orange & purple skinsuit Lobo.
