Description Hey!  Here's another new genre story from (story/script) and myself (art/letters).  I'm going to try to Wally Wood the crap out of this one, if I can!  It's a challenge, I normally don't do "shiny".

Hope you enjoy!

Very cool page! It reminds me a bit of the classic sci-fi comics from 50's. Great work!

I like the visual 2001 ref with that face.  You do shiny so well.

Thanks!  Shiny is tough for me, but I'm trying to emulate a master in this story.

I feel for the guy, I do.  But he needs to be stopped...right after I hire the mutant whore.

Jesus.  That bottom panel alone with the face is a wonder of inking in and of itself.  You captured the reflectiveness of the glass perfectly.

Great to see another joint venture between you and Larry.

Thanks, Zoe!  I was trying to evoke something along the lines of that famous shot of Dave Bowman in his EVA helmet from 2001: A Space Odyssey.  Tough to do in b&w!

That scene from 2001 was exactly the scene I thought of when I looked at your drawing.  That was no easy feat to draw something like that.  My hat's off to you.

Please don't ever switch to digital inking.

dalgoda7 In reply to VagabondX [2013-11-10 17:53:33 +0000 UTC]

I'm too old and stubborn to switch now!      I did give it a try once with a cheap tablet, didn't like it.

Plus, one of the main reasons I *DO* comics is so that I can enjoy the ink on paper when I'm done. 

On the other hand, digital would make it easier to do zip-a-tone style effects rather than the poor-man's method I use (hand-ruled lines, I am a glutton for punishment).

You're too much a master of traditional inking to switch.

It can be awesome but is so amazing at traditional inks he should never change.

I am so captivated by what you did here. This is has so much power and you are doing Wally Wood proud with this, I really feel it. I know what happens, but you make it seem like I am reading it for the very first time. Amazing work Chris. This is so stunning.

Thanks, Larry.  I spent a lot of time on this one, I really wanted to get it right.  I still see some flaws, but mostly because I've been staring at it closely for the last week.

Well I guess when you go over every little bit as much as you do I bet you could find something wrong, but it looks so right, it is so good. I am so psyched to see this to completion. Keep doing your thing!

  Wow, man. Looks like an intriguing story, and you're bring the Wallace Wood to it IMO.  Awesome stuff from both you and EarthmanPrime.
