Here’s the second page of the prologue to Space Warped. In this page Goten and Trunks are sucked into a mysterious blue portal, where they find themselves in a mysterious castle and meet a mysterious nude blue figure. It’s all very mysterious.
I had fun with this page, Malezor did a great job with the interior shot, and I like the overall look of the page. We get to find out a bit more about what’s going on in the next page, which will hopefully be here before too long.
I had mentioned that this comic would move at a different pace than the ones I do solo, and here’s good evidence of that. Malezor got the lineart to me pretty quickly, and in turn it didn’t take me too long to get it colored. So, now we’re officially in the prologue to Space Warped.
I don’t want to get people’s hopes up too high, though, as crossover goodness many of you are looking for isn’t going to be in the prologue. We need to set up how the crossover happens first, but we’re doing our best to get this essential plot stuff published and out there quickly so we can move on to real “meat” of the story.
In site-related news, updates of any kind are going to be few and far between for a little while, as I have another convention I’m attending. Afterwards I’ll be visiting some friends, so for the next couple weeks (until about the 15th) I won’t be able to work the same way I usually do. I’m going to try and get as much done as possible during that time, but if I go a few days without posting anything, that’s why.
So, this comic has kind of a long and winding history. For a long time, I had been bouncing around a few ideas that would allow me the chance to “doll up” Beast Boy (sometimes it was Robin). I eventually settled on the idea of Beast Boy seducing Cyborg by going femme, and around that time in the cBox there rose up a discussion of doing a Beast Boy/Raven comic. Since Raven is frequently shipped with either Cyborg or Beast Boy (depending on if the shipper likes Terra, mostly), I thought that Cyborg/Beast Boy/Raven made sense as a threesome. So, I tweaked my existing setup to allow Raven to be involved, and then kept the idea filed away for a while. When I decided I was ready to do a new comic, I ran a poll asking all of you which one I should do and placed some of my favorites up to choose from. You picked TTN over two yuri ones, and here we are.
Hopefully it’s pretty clear what’s going on in this page… I wasn’t sure the best way to quickly convey the situation, but if there’s any confusion the second page should explain things when it comes out next year. In the meantime, though, I probably won’t be posting this page anywhere else until more of the comic has been released. It’s just for those of you who follow the blog until then! I hope you guys like it, for some reason I’ve been especially concerned with how this comic will be received.
Next in line on the update train is Special Training. Gohan’s feeling bad that he came before Goku, so he sets to work trying to make it right despite Goku’s insistence that it’s okay. Here we get to try a position I don’t think I’ve used before, the standing sixty-nine, as Goku decides to reward Gohan’s enthusiasm.
Tomorrow will be the first page of Titans Tower Nights, and I hope you all will like it. I’m a bit nervous about that one, but I’ll probably talk about that more in its own commentary. Until then, I just hope you’ll all enjoy this little bit of Gohan action.
