So what’s this one all about you might ask.  Well this one is referencing a guy named Bill Finger who co-created Batman, and may have done a lot of the heavy lifting in that but isn’t given as well known as he should be and wasn’t given much of the credit.  The big panel at the end is based on the cover of a comic where Superman and Shazam fought as shown below…

Another comic that recently did a homage to this cover is The Hero Business. Click the link check it out.  We’ll definitely be seeing more of Kill-Man (and Q-girl getting drunk) over time.  Next time we’ll find out who “The Emperor” and “The Guy” are, and we’ll sorta meet a new character… Oh and a certain monster that appeared once before returns.  Seriously though should it be “Kill-man” and “The Kill-man”?  Anyways hope you enjoy and see ya next time.

Here we have the grand meeting of the 3 Q-ladies, and Freedom Female to boot!  For this one I made some attempts at drawing in Adobe Illustrator, but once again it just wasn’t a good fit for me so I’m back to Adobe Flash.  We also see here Q-girl getting drunk which we will continually see as one of her defining character traits.  Wait is “getting a drunk” or ever being an alchoholic a character trait?  Anyways you can see this goes way back  of the first appearance of “modern Q-girl” way back on page 21 of Q-boy #2.  This cover below show what this comic was based on…

JLA_157_95Next time we’ll see two of our Q-ladies and we’ll be introduced Q-boy’s greatest rival Kill-man!  From there Q-boy with the help of some new creators really hits the Silver Age of comics running!  Should be a wild ride! You gotta wonder though what’s Q-girl’s drink of choice.  Hope you enjoy and see ya next time!

And now we have our 3 Q-ladies: Q-girl, The Red Q Lady, and Queenie The Q Whore.  This comic was based on the cover of Phantom Lady #17 which as the comic suggested was specifically pointed out by the book that nearly ended comics “Seduction Of The Innocent”. As you can see below…

Next time our 3 Q-ladies meet for the first time, and Freedom Female shows up again.  I have a feeling they’ll all get along and be good friends… Riiiiiiiiight!  That’s about it for this one. So where does everyone rank Age Of Ultron?  It was good, but had some problems (too many characters mostly and the mind control scenes).  I’m not sure where I rank it but it doesn’t make my top 5 (Dark Knight, Avengers 1, Cap 2, Guardians, Iron Man 1).  Anyways hope everyone had a good Mother’s Day, and see ya next time.

If you know your Breaking Bad you probably get where I was going with this one.  If not then I gotta figure at the this point you’re never going to watch Breaking Bad.  You’re that rare special snowflake, the maverick that answers the world’s call to watch Breaking Bad with “I don’t feel like it”.  Anyways you’ll probably see Sam and “Rosentein” again.  I originally tried to use Manga Studio for this one as its the go to software for many a webcomic creator, but I just don’t like and couldn’t get it to work the way I wanted.  So back to Adobe Flash for me.  Not much more to say on this one so next time we meet the final of our 3 Q-ladies.  Think it’s gonna be crazy? “You’re God damn right”!

So there’s a lot going on with this one… Let’s start with some Wonder Woman history as that is who Freedom Female is based on.  Wonder Woman was created by William Moulton Marston who also happened to invent the lie detector.  He was way into the idea that women should run the world and something about “loving bondage”.  He also had a poly relationship with 2 women, one of which he married, and they all lived together. For the hell of it I made the 2 women black and hispanic to add some diversity.  Sandra Christie I based very loosely on Jackie Ormes who was the first black woman to create a syndicated comic strip.  The character The Red Q Lady is a combination of Jackie’s character Torchy Brown and the Woman In Red who was a female crimefighter in the very early days of comics.  Both characters are explained more on this article on the site ComicBookGrrrl.com.  The first panel is based on the first panel of the Woman In Red comic below…

womaninredThe whole “Murderess Of Monsters”/Vampire stuff with the Red Q Lady…. I’ll keep that under the hat for now…Oh yeah! I didn’t have room to translate what Rosalina is saying in the last panel.  She’s basically saying “I’d kill you if I wasn’t Catholic you old whore” and “those thieves can rot in hell”.  Do you think The Red Q Lady every improved her stake throwing?  Anyways that’s it for now, next time we meet a “man with a master plan, his name is Sam, and I think you better recognized”.
