So I ordered some stuff on Amazon and it just left Gourock, Inverclyde. Scotland has the greatest place names.

I started doodling about my seemingly infinite comic story ideas again.


Monster's Origin ^ about a guy and his family that move into a devil's house, which the devil uses as a gate to unleash monsters like Jason or Chucky upon the world. He gets trapped inside as a SWAT team surrounds the place thinking he has taken his family hostage. It has some RICH TWISTS.

Do this one.

Don't drag it on for years or anything, just set out with an end date in mind and go for it, lay out a complete story for us.

It would be.

Excellent.

IMO.

No, she doesn't have a point. You know baldy there is going for both at some point. Of course, I guess that's the punchline to a future strip in this arc.

Hobnail

Good god Cammy D hands and MoJ of any sort, it's like a fucking sanitarium for art in here

I was in a bit of a rush but I kinda regret not going into more detail with the map and making some of the writing more visible as it contains potential future storylines. Theres a wickerman reference as well since the film is set on a fictional island off the coast of Scotland.

plus the boar next to Orkney is a reference to its name, island of the pigs.

Hobnail

I thought the wickerman was just a reference to Celtic paganism in general. What's the idea behind the viking gnawing his shield?

Interesting you say that, since this is a story idea I've had for a long time and I have the clearest idea of its sequence of events/ending.

Maybe I should choose this one. Just roll it out and get SOMETHING done finally.

I'm pretty upset that I didn't get to know that there was a real live human being on this Earth named "Amarillo Slim" until after he died.

this was the goal of the siege, to cut your opponent's army off from supply lines and force them to eat their arms and armor

Yeah one of the potential Malky Dungeon stories actually features Cú Chulainn in it.

Berk have you ever taken any inspiration from Bisley
Specifically his Slaine work
Because it's one of the few things I can draw a direct comparison with

Also relevant RE: Warp Spasms. Hero harnesses are an especially fresh detail.
