The History Of Comics With Q-boy #61 The Vicious Cycle And The Gifts They Buy You

qbs61

So after some delay I finally got this done. So as stated before, this comic like the last one is based on the work of Robert Crumb. Man, the amount of lines and detail Robert Crumb puts into his work is literally insane! Anyways the panels break down as:

  • Panel 1
    • Thought bubble 1&2  are based on panels from “R. Crumb’s Kafka” a comic book biography of writer Franz Kafka which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4uep & here http://qr.net/b4ufD
    • Thought bubble 3 is based on the cover to the documentary “The Confessions Of Robert Crumb” which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4ugN
    • Thought bubble 4 is based on a this drawing of his character “Mr. Natural” which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4ukD
    • Thought bubble 5 is based on the cover of “The Complete Crumb Vol. 13” which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4uma
    • The rest is based on the backcover to “Carload O’ Comics” which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4uqr
  • Panel 2 is based on a drawing of a woman holding kittens from “R. Crumb’s Art & Beauty” which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4usB
  • Panel 3 is based on the cover to “Mr. Natural” which you can check out here (Note: NSFW) http://qr.net/b4utV
  • Panel 4 is based on a drawing of Hugh Hefner and some women on a trip to Africa from “Art & Beauty Magazine” #2 which you can check out here http://qr.net/b4uwy

Next time…. I honestly don’t know, but it will be the beginning of the end of this “Silver Age” chapter of “The History Of Comics With Q-boy”.  Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Yep I made my version of “The Hulk” Black.  I revealed his name was Broadrick Benton in a previous comic (Criminal And Crimfighter Conversations #74 specifically).  Anyways, last week was the big 100th comic which featured the 100th Conversation cypher. Alot of characters didn’t get to be part of that so we’ll be continuing with that theme this week.  Tomorrow Succubus, Death Poll, & Drizzle have their own cypher. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Q-girl, Q-boy, & Slowku On The 100th Conversation Cypher (Team Q-four) (Censored)

ccc-100a-qgirlqboyslowkuc

So this 100th comic is in 4 parts. This is the first part. For each of these I’ll explain some references people may not know

“Bangin’ The Wench” = Reference to “Batgirl” having sex with “Batman” in the direct to DVD movie “Batman: The Killing Joke”.

“Baby mama’s a terrorist” = Reference to “Batman” having a child (current “Robin” “Damian Wayne”) with “Talia Al Ghul”

“Ain’t no such thing as half way crooks” = Famous line from “Shook Ones (Part II)” by “Mobb Deep. Also a big part of the “Eminem” movie “8 Mile” when he quotes the line from the song while rhyming to the “Shook One” instrumental in his final battle against “Papa Doc”

John Hein/”Hit em’ with the hein”= Howard Stern show reference. A lot to explain but the short version is describing someone who has low energy

“Blame some blue guy” = Reference to how “DC’s” event “Rebirth” seems to blame the “darkness” of “DC’s” universe on “Dr. Manhattan” from “Watchmen” altering things/

The Innovator, America-Man, & The Smasher The

100th Conversation Cypher (Team Revenge Squad) (Censored)

ccc-100c-theinnovatoramericamansmasherc

“Call me a Nazi” = Reference to all the “HydraCap” nonsense that was going on where in the current “Captain America” comic he was altered to think he’s a “Hydra” agent and people were being total rubes and calling him a Nazi.

“Me n’ Ms. Majors fightin’” = Reference to “Civil War II” where “Iron Man” and “Captain Marvel” are fighting over some “Inhuman” kid that can predict the future and whether to use him or not

“The Smasher was dead” = Reference to “The Hulk” being killed by “Hawkeye” in “Civil War II”

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #100D

Special-Girl & Muffina Winters On The 100th Conversation Cypher (Censored)

ccc-44.3-muffyandspecialgirltandqgirl

“Papa Doc” = Mentioned  before but he’s the guy Eminem battles at the end of “8 Mile”. The battle begins with a coin toss to see who goes first and he says “let that bitch go first”. Played “Anthony Mackie” aka “The Falcon” in “Marvel movies.

“Lynda Carter” = Played “Wonder Woman” in the 70’s TV Show. Obviously pre-dating “Buffy The Vampire Slayer”.

“Originator of musical episodes” = The “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” episode “One More Time With Feeling” seemed to popularize TV shows doing musical episodes with varying results. “Supergirl” is suppose to have a musical crossover with “The Flash” next season.

“Angel” & “Spike” = “Buffy’s” vampire love interests.  Usually wouldn’t use “real life” names (and in this comic’s context it kinda doesn’t make sense) but I couldn’t resist using this line

It’s been great giving you these first 100 comics. To 100 more and way beyond.  Thanks to everyone who liked, retweeted, commented, shared, and just read these. I appreciate it more than you can know. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #94 The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Spiderous-Man On Self-Esteem

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #94

The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Spiderous-Man On Self-Esteem

ccc-94-theminstrelqboyspiderousman

I don’t get “Marvel’s” obsession with making Spider-Man young. In the original comics Spider-Man is only in high school for a few issues then he’s in college. With “Ultimate Spider-Man” this version of Peter Parker starts the series being 15 years old.  Then the “Miles Morales” version of “Ultimate Spider-Man” is 13 years old.

I think making “Spider-Man” younger and younger miss the point of  “Spider-Man”. The point (and this is very much IMHO) of “Spider-Man” is the he is a loser. “Peter Parker” handmade all his equipment including his webbing and web shooters as a relatively young guy.  He could have easily sold any of this and made millions. He has the strength and agility to easily be a pro wrestler, MMA fighter, or win something like “AGT”.  Instead of doing any of this he works for a guy who is obsessed with trashing him and seems to be perpetually broke.

Currently in the comics “Spider-Man” has “Parker Industries”, but he only has this because “Dr. Octopus” controlled him as “The Superior Spider-Man” and used some of Peter’s unused potential. Guess it’s a “mo’ money mo’ problems” situation.

That’s it for this week. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #89

The Innovator, Q-boy, & The Minstrel On Sudden Popularity (Censored)

ccc-89-theinnovatorqboytheminstrelc

Names can be hard to come up with.  Sometimes I find it to be the hardest part of making these comics.  So what I’m about to say isn’t being said without sympathy…

… In the comics “Iron Man” has this 15 year old black girl protege named “Riri Williams”.  It was looking like “Riri” was going to take “Iron Man’s” place after “Civil War II” possibly even using the name “Iron Man”.  Yesterday it was revealed she’ll be using name…. *drumroll* “Iron Heart”…..

“Iron Heart”?!  Really?! I mean “Iron Girl” or “Iron Woman” aren’t great but “IRON HEART”?!

Maybe I’m missing something or it’s just me, but I’m not feeling that name at all. Anyone feel the same? Different?

Tomorrow Q-boy returns with Death Poll and Kill Screen to talk about the perks of popularity. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #82

Spiderous-Man On Picking Sides (Censored)

ccc-73.4-spiderousman

In the original story of “Spider-Man’s” origin from “Amazing Fantasy” #15 “Spider-Man” gets a taste of fame and immediately acts like a total dick. Then some criminal runs past him as some super old security guard is chasing him. For some reason it’s suppose to be his responsibility to stop the guy.  He easily could’ve, but it needs to be pointed out that he literally has seconds to do it. It’s one panel. The next panel the criminal is on the “express elevator”. Then “Spider-Man” REALLY acts like a dick and says “he’s only looking out for number one”. Then as we all know the criminal kills “Uncle Ben”.

It seems like every version since has tried to make “Spider-Man” more sympathetic, but it changes the lesson from “don’t act like a dick” to “let people push you around”.  In the first “Spider-Man” movie now the people the criminal stole from  just cheated “Spider-Man” out of money. Also the criminal usually has a gun in other versions of the story.  Even with his spider powers he ain’t bulletproof. So now “Spider-Man” is suppose to risk his life for people who cheated him otherwise he’s a bad guy?

With that we end this week. Next week check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
