Man Alive:
A 24-Hour Comic

This here comic wasn’t written by one of us on the blog, but it was written and illustrated by a dear friend of ours who attended 24-Hour Comic Day with us in Omaha last weekend. Let’s call him Doom ‘n’ Gloom. He can’t offer us any insight into what went through his mind while he…

Trinity #21

In the lead: After a little back-story on Morgaine Le Fey and Enigma, “Despero” is revealed to be Kanjar Ro in disguise. Due to his deceit, Morgaine Le Fey’s spell wasn’t completed as it should be. Le Fey and Enigma has become demigods, and their bad from the abyss on the newly Trinity-free Earth. But…



The Garden:
Jim Doom’s 24 Hour Comic

As I mentioned during our live blogging, I was struggling to come up with an idea for my comic. Fin Fang Doom brought some random words and genres to draw from to help inspire people; I drew “real-life,” “horror,” and then stuff like “rhubarb.” I’d had a dream earlier that morning about a dispute over…



The Doomino Effect for Oct 15, 2008

The Secret Invasion tie-ins continue to devolve into pointlessness. Where they once shed new light on the background of the events leading up to where we are in the main series, Mighty Avengers #19 continues the recent pattern of telling stories that are sort of nice on their own but completely disappointing as successors to…



LJS on 24HCD

The Lincoln Journal Star had an article on Lincoln’s 24HCD event in yesterday’s paper. The works that came out of the day range from the spectacular to the mundane, from the elaborate to the stick. Here are a few of the creators discussing their comic books. Justin McDowell, the organizer of the local event: “Mine’s…



Space Dinosaurs from the Future: A 24-Hour Comic

I’m not going to lie to you. I couldn’t think of anything good. This 24-Hour Comic just went from bad to worse, and the only reason I kind of enjoy the final product is because, over the course of the event, I made the decision several times to kill off all the characters and scrap…



Book of Doom: Superman: New Krypton Special

Are you still undecided over whether or not you want to follow the upcoming Mega Superman crossover? The bottle city of Kandor has been released on Earth, and who knows what will happen next? All I know is that it’s going to be nine parts, and it’s going to cross through every Superman book. Come…



Portals of Doom: A 24-Hour Comic

Here’s the comic that yours truly produced this weekend for 24-Hour Comics Day: Portals of Doom! You may notice that the art quality regresses quite a bit over the course of these 24 pages. The coherence of the storytelling has a similar degradation, albeit on a much larger scale. That’s what a lack of sleep…



Book of Doom: Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds #2 (of 5)

This post is a couple days late, obviously, but hopefully you can forgive its tardiness on account of 24 Hour Comic Day and the effects that event had on my sleep schedule. While I’m not exactly sure how this can possibly tie in with Final Crisis, I’m still entertained by what’s going on in this…
