With these comics I’m still figuring things out. I say this because I’m going to change what I’m doing with “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” again.

 loki

My new plan is to only update when I have completed panels or in some cases more than one done. Also I’m going to stop the updating on Monday. That seems to be day when most people aren’t checking out comics. I’m debating posting these comics on days “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” gets posted.

I’m still in the middle of the writing process for “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” 66. I’m also working on something planned for “Criminal And Crimefigher Conversations” 200. It will break format and involve the introduction of my version of “Sailor Moon”. I’ll get more into this later…

Now for this actual comic. I know I can’t be alone with “Better Call Saul” right? Like it’s okay, but “Breaking Bad” was SO great. Although “Gus” is suppose to be on this season so that might be interesting.

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesdays-Thursdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I posted the long awaited “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” 65 and not until too late noticed I screwed up. Distraction Lass gets her arm blown off in one panel. A couple panels later though there’s the same arm intact.

doh

I fixed it though…Aaand as I write I also realize I forgot to put the fixed version on the site.

Enough with my screw ups. This comic was a weird one wasn’t it? This combination of characters seems to lead me down weird rabbit holes. Trying to psycho analyze someone as thick as Slowku leads to quick frustration. Especially when you’re also working with someone with as many issues as Special-Girl. Then you have Hazard Hands being there to be petty. It’s a nice gumbo of craziness to work with. Tomorrow these guys return to dive deeper down this rabbit hole. They get derailed though…

Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

ccc-187-specialgirl(czar)theminstrelhazardhandsandslowkutemplate-01

So you might be wondering what Special-Girl is freaking out about. This stuff about the a multi-verse the died got referred to before. This was way back in “Criminal And Crimfighter Conversations” 36. You can check that out here http://bit.ly/ccconver36 .

To re-explain I’ll paraphase what I wrote then. “This one has some references to “Crisis Of Infinite Earth””. This was “the big event of DC Comics that ended its multi-verse”. The main thing is in “Crisis” “The Flash” and “Supergirl” die in it. Also the “DC” heroes don’t remember “Crisis” happening. In my version, my verions of them (Quickie and Special-Girl) remember it happening. They are the only once who do though.

buffy

…And that’s enough convoluted continuity stuff for now. That’s it was “Criminal And Crimefigher Conversations” this week. Check out another update to “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” 65. More than likely is will be a look at the final panel. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

“Naive” is the nicest way of putting it, but “Goku” is pretty dumb. A lot of it you can’t blame on him though. First off, he may have suffered brain damage in when “Grandpa Gohan” dropped him as an infant. This is what turned “Goku” from the child sent to kill all humans to the good natured guy we know today. Also “Goku” has had no formal education in his whole life. The being some basic lessons from a perverted hermit for 3 years tops.

Also “Saiyans” in general don’t seem to be a particularly smart people. They seem to be a race of mercenaries that rely on others for technology. They were the “muscle” and “Freeza” was the “brain” in their operation.

So don’t blame “Goku” for thinking a wife is “something you eat”. (Yes the joke is already all over the internet). Smile at him, shake your head, and him idiot savant his way to learning an attack he saw 5 second ago.

Tomorrow all the guys return as Special-Girl talks about her issues. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Do you remember the first time you saw “Goku” turn “Super Saiyan” the first time. Most of us Americans knew it was going to happen and even what it looked like, but we didn’t know how it happened until we saw it.  It took extreme gravity training, nearly dying, fighting against a (at the time) basically unbeatable opponent, and the stress of seeing his best friend killed.  For ‘Vegeta” to do it he had to push himself to near madness. Basically it took extreme training and extreme stress.

Jump ahead and Goku reveals he could become “Super Saiyan 3” except he really can’t handle it. I think it’s suggested that the planet can’t even handle it which is something I think everyone seems to forget. Then younger characters (and one’s that are barely “Saiyan”) could just do it (except “Pan” of course because… reasons).

Jump to “Dragon Ball Super” where Goku becomes “Super Saiyan God”.  Which is just given to him… It’s kinda un-“Dragonball” to do that. Later “Vegeta” “does it on his own”, but that doesn’t make any sense. And they both become “Super Saiyan Blue”. I know there’s a “Super Saiyan Rose” as well but I don’t know if either of them achieved it yet. My point to all this is that these new transformations seem too easy and too fast. Again I like “Dragon Ball Super” but at this rate they’re going to run out of color pretty fast.

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesdays-Thurdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

In case you’re lost or didn’t read yesterday’s comic this is a telepathic conversation that was going on during the conversation from yesterday’s comic between Mr. Mystic and Headmaster Fresh and unexpectedly Slowku gets involved. That just made you more confused didn’t it?

Speaking of Slowku let’s get back to “Dragon Ball Super”. One thing I kinda like about it is that it has shorter arcs. I don’t break down “Dragon Ball Z” into mini-arcs like most people. To me “DBZ” is The “Saiyan” or “Vegeta”  Saga, the “Freeza” Saga, the “Cell” saga, and the “Buu” saga. This plus some filler covers nearly 300 episodes. At around 60 episodes “Dragonball Super” has had the same number of sagas plus filler. Another good thing is at least in the “Ressurection Of F” arc characters that aren’t “Goku” or “Vegeta” got to do something.

Then there’s the problems… Like “Pilaf”…. He’s never been funny or a good character. He’s a relic of time when “Dragon Ball” wasn’t popular. And yet he keeps returning… Over and over again to waste time that could go to fighting or something interesting.  Along with him is “Shu” and “Mai”.  “Mai” is a whole thing by herself because of all this weird stuff with her and “Trunks”.  To be clear this is woman that is older and his mother in a child’s body.  Then time travel gets involved and it gets weird for the opposite reason.  All this should really just stop.

Tomorrow a decision is made about Mr. Mystic’s position in The Revenge Squad. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Last week I said something about “DC Comics” having better comics right now than “Marvel”… After catching on some comics this weekend I have to amend that. I’m not saying “DC” isn’t winning necessarily but it’s WAY closer than I thought.  I caught up on “Infamous Iron Man” (where “Dr. Doom” takes “Iron Man’s” place and tries to be good) and that’s a damn good comic. Is worth going through “Secret Wars” and “Civil War II” to get here? Probably not, but still…

Also “Dragon Ball Super” premiered last Saturday here in the US. I’d been following it through fan-subtitled versions. I’m not an anime purist. I prefer dubs over subs mainly because I more “listen” than watch anything.  “Dragon Ball” is one of the few things I’ll watch subbed when the dub isn’t available.  In fact this whole thing brings me back to when I would watch “Dragonball Z” on the “International Channel”. No “subtitles”, faded colors, but completely unedited and it was a few episodes ahead of the American version.

Back to “Super”, I think I was up to like the 56th episode or something. Honestly it’s… Okay. It’s WAY better than “Dragon Ball GT” though. The whole things is kinda similar to what is going on with “Star Wars”. Sure there’s part of me that just wants more, but there’s the part of me that says “let it go”.  It’s a weird pre-sequel that pretty much contradicts the actual ending of “Dragon Ball Z”. Then there’s the fact that nearly 30 episodes are just the last 2 “Dragon Ball” movies (“Battle Of The Gods” & “Ressurection Of F”) with lots of filler. The first episode in particular is nothing but pointless filler… But it’s “Dragon Ball”. They can endlessly repackage, and remix it and I’ll probably be there.

Tomorrow we see a secret conversation that happened during this conversation.  Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ft. @TheGoofyArtist as “Manic Dynamic Gore Mistress Anime Girl Zee” (Censored)

qbsxmas3pg1cqbsxmas3pg2c-01qbsxmas3pg3c-01

The main thing with this one is I wanted to draw some action and I wanted to show some of the characters you may have seen in “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” in action. The original idea was Q-boy talking to Special-Girl but as this comic points out that is pretty similar to the first holiday special. So I watched an IG story by this comic’s special guest Zee Bee aka @thegoofyartist where she talked about holding a door for this girl and the girl not saying thank you. For some reason that made the whole story click for me.  So I wrote this up and messaged Zee about it, and she gave me the okay to do it which was very cool of her. Cuz’ I couldn’t blame her at all it she was was like “no *block*”.

Speaking of her, let me properly introduce our special guest. Zee is someone whose work I ran into on “Twitter” a few years ago. She had a cool art style and she seems to have the same weird attention span problem that had her doing multiple webcomics like I do. Fast forward a few years and she likes I few of my pics on IG and I’m like “oh this chick, yeah I’ll follow her”. From following her on IG I find that she’s become this coloring/ animation master. She’s also pretty funny (the holidayclapbacks are always good for a laugh) and has a good taste in shows (“Dragonball”, “Simpson”, “Archer”, etc.). Mainly though she just has this slightly manic happy exuberant energy.  She does do the dog filter thing though… I don’t think girls her age can help it though.  Again thanks Zee, this holiday special doesn’t exist without you.

As for the moral of this story, do the right thing because it makes you feel good or because is makes logical sense.If we all do that 2017 will be better than last year. Let’s try to make it good one! Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Hope everyone had a good Christmas day! This is the first page of this year’s holiday special. I’ll talk more about it, and give an introduction of this comic’s special guest Zee Bee AKA @thegoofyartist (her name on Twitter and Instagram) later. Special thanks to her for letting me use her as a character in this nutty little adventure.

The third panel is based on the “Super Kamikaze Ghost Attack” by “Gotenks” in “Dragonball Z” and this picture by Zee (note NSFW due to gore and slight nudity) which you can check out here https://goo.gl/mufbwG .

Again have a good one everyone and I’ll catch ya’ll later. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
