Apex, & Death Poll On Trump (Censored)

ccc-156-specialgirlqboyapexdeathpolltemplatec-01

There’s this weird thing going on where people keep saying “Trump’s the president now we have to give him a chance”. Um… No, we’re Americans we don’t do that. Like I put into the comic we tear mercilessly at our leaders and that’s the good ones we actually like. The same people saying this never gave Obama a chance, and that’s not even getting into the fact Trump lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million, is quite possibly being controlled by Putin, and appointed almost comically terrible people to his cabinet. This guy even lies about stuff that there is photo evidence of like the number of people at his inauguration. They’ll have to come up with some really big “alternative facts” to down play all the people protesting against him.

As for Steve Harvey… That was disappointing… I think he thought he was doing a good thing meeting with Trump. “Having a seat at the table” as he put it, but that table is only for billionaires.

Tomorrow we swap out Apex & Death Poll for Luscious Trapp & Quickie as the conversation goes all over the place then circles back to Trump. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #155 – Succubus, Drizzle, & Luscious Trapp On Randomness Then More Obama

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #155 – Succubus, Drizzle, 

& Luscious Trapp On Randomness Then More Obama

ccc-155-succubusdrizzleandluscioustrapp-01

As I write this the comic isn’t done yet. It’s another one where I originally wrote too much material and now I have to edit and squeeze what I can in.  When you see this it will be the last day of Obama’s presidency. There’s so much to say, and yet there’s nothing to say.

There won’t be an increase in the minimum wage. We can only hope there is one at all.

Deregulation will increase the severity of climate change and cause more disasters like the one in Flint.

Maybe they’re not crazy enough to snatch healthcare from millions… Maybe

And this is the small stuff. Not the “Russia might now control America”, insane conflicts of interest, loss of Civil Rights stuff.  Yesterday I wrote that 2 things going through my head were “the cycle” and “learning the wrong lesson”. A 3rd thing is “we deserve a better ending” and that’s what I attempt to do more and more from these comics.

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

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #154 – Ms. Majors,

Drizzle, & Luscious Trapp On …Eventually They Get To Obama

ccc-112-msmajorsdrizzleandlouscioustrappc

Two things keep ringing in my head. “The cycle” and “learning the wrong lesson”.  As much as I hope we’ll break this cycle of voting in one party for 8 years then voting in the other I really don’t see us breaking it. I’m still seeing too many people blaming the wrong people. The lesson to learn is VOTE. The one glimmer of light in this election is that it proved there’s a lot more of us than them. If this is even kind of a democracy (and it’s quite possible it soon might not be) if we come out we win.  We can argue about the specifics later.

I’ll go ahead and say it. Obama is easily the best president of my lifetime, and Bill Clinton was a damn good president. Clinton was president in a time of relative peace and when the economy was almost certainly going to be good due to the internet boom though.  Obama inherited 2 wars and a near Great Depression. Another thing I’ll miss about Obama is not being embarrassed by the president. That really sucked under Bush and with Trump it’s already so much worse.

Tomorrow we swap out Ms. Majors for Succubus as they talk more “Scandal” and Obama. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Luscious Trapp On “Scandal” And Other Stuff

This is it. Like for real no joke. Obama is gone after Thursday and Trump is the Goddamn president. There isn’t going to be any last minute save. The “rebels won’t come through with the plans”. This is it. Seriously, what’s the best case scenario? Our country just being an embarrassment until Trump’s impeached?

It still doesn’t feel real. There’d be a sadness to this week even if Hillary had won, but this is something else. The thing is though, through it all Obama himself still seems to have faith in us. He has no reason to. We failed him at pretty much every mid-term election, and we failed to hold on to his legacy. But still he has faith in us, he still has hope. The whole hope thing isn’t BS with him. That might be the thing I like best about him. That he was almost always steady and calm. Nothing was ever unfixable, a defeat was always temporary, a challenge was never impossible.

Okay more about Obama later this week on to this actual comic. So I originally thought “Scandal” started this week, but it’s actually next week. It’s a damn good show. Parts of the last few seasons have gotten ridiculous but other parts always keep it interesting enough that it’s worth watching. If you never watched it I highly recommend it.

Tomorrow these 3 return to talk about “Scandal” and maybe Obama a bit. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #151 – The Minstrel, Ms. Majors, Luscisous Trapp, Slowku, Mr. Mystic, & Headmaster Fresh On A Secret Convo

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #151 – The Minstrel, Ms. Majors,

Luscisous Trapp, Slowku, Mr. Mystic, & Headmaster Fresh On A Secret Convo

ccc-151-theminstelmsmajorsluscioustrappslowkumrmysticandheamsterfreshprojection-01

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!

The 3rd One: A Vaguely Defined Q-boy Holiday Special Ft. @TheGoofyArtist as “Manic Dynamic Gore Mistress Anime Girl Zee” (Censored)

The 3rd One: A Vaguely Defined Q-boy Holiday Special

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!

I was a actually a whole day ahead of schedule until I got to this comic. For this one I wrote too much material and had to fight to squeeze what I could in. There’s a lot to be said about the economy and jobs and the minimum wage, but I’ll leave that for another day.

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

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #63 Reunited And It Feels… Even Worse Than Before (Censored)

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #63 Reunited And It Feels… Even Worse Than Before (Censored)

qbs63c

Yeah so this one is pretty late. My schedule has changed a lot over the last few weeks, and that along with doing the pre-election special for “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” held this up.  Here we begin the final big adventure before we end this Silver Age chapter of “The History Of Comics With Q-boy”.  I figured for this I’d base the panels on all the artists who have been featured in the Silver Age chapter of these comics. On to the panels…

  • Panel 1 is based on 2 panels from page 31 of “Jungle Comics” #11 by Fletcher Hanks which you can check out here https://goo.gl/UfjzYT
  • Panel 2 is based on a page from “The Daring New Adventures Of Supergirl #13” by Carmine Infantino which you can check out here https://goo.gl/8A62j7
  • Panel 3 is based on a page from “Kull The Conqueror” #2 by Marie Severin which you can check out here https://goo.gl/CLBEs4
  • Panel 4 is based on page 9 of “Fantastic Four” #102 by Jack Kirby which you can check out here https://goo.gl/MZLcqW

Next time… Actually I haven’t written it yet, but I got a rough idea where I’m going. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
