WWFJ – Death Wattle

Click to make big

Here’s the newest (rough) colour sketch for the nefarious and wholly nasty villain Death Wattle

Earlier Version

He will be featured in the World Wildlife Federation of Justice

supplement for Mutants & Masterminds published by Atomic Overmind Press, which means you can read his secret origin, and compare his stats and power level against other WWFJ characters. And if you’re a player of Mutants & Masterminds the roleplaying game you can pit him against your superhero group. Sure…why not?

He is the arch-nemesis of Astromandrill, in case you were wondering, which makes him a fearsome foe indeed! He is also the leader of the Flock of Evil.

I’m not sure if I’m ready to tell you what this is for. But I can tell you that I’m having a lot of fun with it. This is a very preliminary sketch. Stylistic inspirations: Mike McMahon, Jamie Hewlett, Bruce Timm, and yes, Frank Miller (hate his writing, love his drawing).

Though it doesn’t look it now, there will be clothes on everyone. Probably something punkapocalyptic. Big army boots, converse shoes, raggedy blood-stained tanktops, choker collars, metal wristbands, that sort of thing. Hardcore big-busted gore-soaked butch lesbians kickin’ ass.

I’ve blocked it out with a lot of heavy blacks and color-coded the various figures for clarity. I like some more than others. My fave is the girl on the far right which is supposed to be pink but my scanner sucks hoof. I like the idea of the chainsaw but it’s actually a bit distracting shoved down in the bottom corner.

Another direction would be to give Jesus (yes that’s right) his sweaty crown of thorns and instead of the chainsaw he’d be wielding a huge wooden cross. I feel as though that would be some degree of awesome, and that feeling of awesome grows even as I finish typing this sentence.

Spaceship Zero Comic Page 5

At long last here is page 5 of the Spaceship Zero comic, sans lettering. If everything goes as planned the full five pages, which is a prequel to the story as laid out in the SSZ roleplaying game and the album Spaceship Zero: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, will appear in Cloudscape Comics‘ newest anthology, “Exploded View” (cover by Camilla D’errico)

I’m having professional comic letterer Ed Brisson redo all of my unprofessional lettering from the first 4 pages.
