You’re A Cigarette

You're A Cigarette

That exchange between Randal and the British guy on the Clerks cartoon is amazing and I completely pounded the whole “You’re A (blank)” thing into the ground years ago. I was playing Bookworm today and I got ‘fag’ as word and this little definition popped up on the top of the screen.

Domestic Violence #1

Published by Rev. Josh under Art, Old Junk

When I was working on my 24 Hour comic last month I referenced an old comic of mine, Domestic Violence. I just unearthed a copy of that comic that I drew back in 1993:

Domestic Violence Cover

Yep. Look at that shit. Pretty effing gross. I can’t even begin to explain what’s wrong this. And it gets worse:

gimme yo money

I have no idea what that stain is except that it’s not the worst thing on the page. The Characters Created By credit is a little misleading as the main guy was supposed to be my friend Eric who got all mutated by toxic waste and turned into a muscleman apparently.

That’s what I thought a back of a head looked like. And that alley’s on a hill. And a prostitute (?) getting beat up? SHADDUP!! I was a good writer even back then. Supposed to be some sort of arty brick wall back there. A panel with just word balloons? I should do that some more now. Then a really strangely drawn half-naked man. With weird anatomy.

page 3

I guess I had never seen a real gun at this point so I could draw it correctly. Or a person.

And then comes the action! Yeah! Whoops?

Here we have a .. JESUS CHRIST! IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE A LADY?/???????//?

Why yes, that man is 14 feet tall. What a  weird comic. Shit. I was 16 and I really wanted to make superhero comics and this what I came up with. I probably drew/wrote 20 comics throughout high school. What else was I gonna do? Go to parties? Make out with chicks and/or dudes? I was a huge nerd. Oh well.

So if anybody wants to see any else of these things, let me know. They’re not all quite this bad. Then again, nothing is.

Playtime? No.

Published by Rev. Josh under Art, Comics, Me, Mew, Pen & Ink

A request from Mike Larsson for a cat comic. Yes it’s like every other cat comic I’ve done. She likes to eat what can I say?

I usually sketch out a little thumbnail of what I’m going to do. Sometimes as large as 8 1/2″ x 11″. They’re pretty rough.  I just want a little idea of where things go and what’s going to be said. Generally what I layout is exactly what I draw. I may change the dialog, but it’s pretty close most of the time.

Playtime thumbnail

Being that this is something I may want to publish in a comick book in the future, I pencilled it on one of my comic boards. They run 11″ x17″ with a 10″ x 15″ drawing area. I do my best to redraw the thumbnail bigger. The loose sketches are really good for unconventional  faces and poses. I have kind of given up drawing like a normal person at this point so I do have good idea of what look I’m going for.

And then I trace. Here’s the finished comick. Click to embiggen.

As suggested by Doug Lussenhop. I would use a crusty old zombie hand myself. But that’s me.

Every time I get from my chair to get a drink or go to the bathroom or whatever, this little gremlin yells at me.

Anybody remember Slapstick? Anybody? I dug the heck out of his 90s miniseries.
