Kirban Decay: DJ Darkseid.

The continuous listening of Adam WarRock's EXCELLENT album The War for Infinity, I was hit with the idea to do a series of drawings translating key players of Jack Kirby's Shakespearean-in-Magnitude Fourth World saga into a grimy inner-city setting.  The series' name? Kirban Decay.  Punlicious.

So without further ado, I give you the first of the series: DJ Darkseid.

 

Head DJ of Klub Apokolips, this Terrible Tyrant of the Turntables seeks to mix the fabled Anti-Life Compilation, thus remaking the underground music scene in his own malevolent image.

Audit pages.

For those of you who haven't heard, Audit's been moved from its placeholder site on Tumblr to a domain of its very own, where it can be read in a much more convenient fashion.  You can check it out HERE.

When I design a new character for Audit, I do a pretty bog-standard standing pose of the character for the sake of reference. (It's easier than constantly flipping back and forth through sketchbooks.)

Here are the major players from the first story.

Ornery cockney killing machine Bluedog Wintergreen:

Celebrated multiversal hero The Spectacle:

The Spectacle's powerful but unstable sidekick, Seeker.

 

The second story's already underway up on the website, but I've not gotten round to doing the characters for that one yet.

Mass Update-o!

I've been so seduced by Tumblr's memes-and-porn charms lately that the stalwart and dependable blogspot has once again fallen by the wayside!

In the interests of keeping current, here's a pile of some of the stuff I've been doing in my spare time lately:

Sequential Hi-Jinx

 

Quick reminder: I'm serializing my comics project Audit on a Tumblr at the moment while I work on building an  honest-to-goodness website for it.

Also, since it's February (also known as the armpit of the year), I'm taking part in the Drawing-A-Day challenge meme that's doing the rounds.  My attempt is a delightful comic kinda-sorta set in the same world as Audit, featuring the exploits of a young couple of urban professionals.  If I had to give it a genre, it'd probably be "Action Romance".  It's called Interesting TimeZ and you can read it here.

I've had the urge to do some Street Fighter fanart for days, but then I thought "I should probably do something christmassy as well".

So I Potara'd that shit.

Some might call it lazy, I call it efficient.

Happy holidays!

Dear Blog...

Hey baby.  I know I been neglectin' you these past couple months, but look!  I brought treats!

That will be ALL, Pennyworth.
