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.

Some more WWFJ Logos
Here’s some rough logos I was working on today, let me know what you think!
Go-Rilla
BABOOM! T-shirt Design
Hypnopotamus T-shirt Design
And another one. This is fun! A bit of serendipity that the two O’s in HYPNOPOTAMUS look like eyes.
Rhinosferatu T-shirt Design
Here is a low res version of the Rhinosferatu t-shirt I’m working on for one of my nephew-in-laws:
I also will be doing one for Shaolin Monkey, Hypnopotamus, and BABOOM!
If you’re interested in picking up a shirt for yourself lemme know!
Astromandrill Again
Last night I took a short break from Reggietown when I was inspired to work on WWFJ. It took about 45 minutes but I finally got a sketch of Astromandrill that I am happy with. For some reason all of my previous attempts felt really flat. Here’s the newest–sketchy but properly cartoony.
Shadow Out of Tim T-Shirt *NEW!*
Feel guilty about illegally downloading the newest album by The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, “The Shadow Out of Tim”? Thank goodness for indie bands that you can’t torrent T-shirts…yet. Now you can make it up to us by sporting this classy black cotton tee featuring the art from the album cover. Based on the 1971 Ballantine reprints of the Lovecraft library with artwork by John Holmes as re-imagined by Thickets front man & Cthulhoid illustrator Toren Atkinson, this image represents the protagonist of the rock opera album, Dr. Timothy Vess, with his head being split open by one of the Great Race of Yith from Lovecraft novelette “The Shadow Out of Tim.” Only The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets would produce a t-shirt design with this much convoluted back story – and now it can be yours! Buy now and buy often – makes a great gift for Cthulhumas.
XXL and up, as well as girly sizes, may be available. Please contact us for details.
