Here’s the second page of Zombie Movie Night! The girls continue their conversation. I know some people have gotten pretty testy with me over having longer build-ups in some comics, but in this one we have the Lollipop Chainsaw movie they’re watching to keep the pages spicy while I establish Ellie and Clem’s dynamic in this universe. Also, we’ve got a little bit of a nod to some Xoverse lore here.
So, while Cloud’s sword may be a reference to Guts’s, his dick isn’t, so the gimmick I’ve done with Guts doesn’t always play out evenly. There had been some attempt to do this crossover before that didn’t pan out for one reason or another, but I figured I could make it work here for anyone interested in this crossover.
So this is an idea I had a while ago, but never did anything with. I couldn’t tell you where it started, but the image of Maki and Yoinks playing some one-on-one just felt kinda right to me. I didn’t have anywhere to use the concept, really, but after doing Closing Time I decided to try and make this work following the approach I did for that comic. This page is a little more complex than any I did for Closing Time, and it won’t be the way the rest of the comic looks, but I wanted to get some stuff out of the way so the rest of the pages can be focused on the action.
So I had this answer in mind pretty quickly on reading the question. When it came to finding a good villainous partner for him, though, I realized I haven’t done much with superhero-coded villains, and my options were limited. I did come up with a workaround, but I ended up going this route instead ’cause I haven’t used Venom in forever and I thought it’d be a fun pairing.
This is a commission for one of my Lord-Tier Subscribers. It’s positioned like a Mini Commission because this Subscriber has a second pic they want. However, due to some of my own plans, the release of that second pic won’t be for a couple months, probably. For now, here’s some crossover fun with Cheetara and Goku.
Once again we see Loid getting paired with someone I’ve drawn Anya with in the past. I don’t really feel like I can justify Loid going around to every individual character Anya’s been with of his own volition, but a Dare like this works fine for it. Hope y’all like.
So this One-Shot is another in a tradition of using some mix of DBZ and H×H boys. We do have Zushi instead of Killua to change the formula up a bit this time, and I hope some of y’all will enjoy it.
I thought it’d be fun to pair Stark up with a warrior from a different world, and Guts seemed like a good choice to me. Not only do the come from similar fantasy worlds (if very different in tone), but it’s a good set-up for the same sword joke I made in the last pic with Guts in it. It’s also the first time I’ve drawn Guts’s face, so there’s that, too.
And this wraps up our little experiment. I think this approach to comics does work pretty well in allowing me to get pages out relatively quickly without interrupting other projects. However, it is a bit limited in the types of pairings I can do with it, I think. Nonetheless I will probably try other comics like this in the future. I have another in the works right now, which ironically enough involves a different Jujutsu Kaisen character, but for now I hope y’all enjoyed Closing Time as much as Tiana did.
We’re now officially into the second match of the first round! There’s a lot of DBZ representation in this tournament, but Krillin’s going up against the first non-DBZ entrant in A-ko. He’s taking the offense, too, so let’s see how things play out.
