so awhile back i picked up the first volume of All Star Batman, mostly on a whim. i hadn't read any of the single issues when they came out, and the only thing i really knew about the series was that it was always super super late, and that Batman called himself the Goddamn Batman a lot.
well, i finally got around to reading it, after i lent it to another friend to read, and i actully liked it. the way Batman is shown, as this crazy lunitic that enjoys beating the shit out of people, is so cool. i think that comic fans tend to get upset when people mess with there "icons" or whatever, but isn't the point of these series? to mess around with the characters and show them a different way? do people really just want to see the same story with the same character, but told by different people, over and over again?
the only thing i didn't really like about was that frank millar isn't drawing it. judging from the few covers he did i can't tell if the book would be better or worse, but it sure would be fun to look at. |

here is part of a page from the story i'm doing. i think this is another good example of me trying to do more with the characters. here we see Eliza getting up and going through her morning.
Awhile back i spent some time talking about my comics to a friend that doesn't draw comics or even read them. she told me that i should really think about who the characters are. i should know stuff about them that i would never even put in a comic. stuff like favortie food, politacl views, what kind of music do they listen too?
it might seem silly but i actully spent a lot of time thinking about what kind of underwear Eliza would wear. she was raised by her uncle along with her brother Adam, though she basically raised herself. she has no female influce. so i thought she would just were something funtional, not really something that might seem sexy. but at the same time she is a girl who wants to be more like a girl. she knows that she is a tomboy but deep down she wants to be in a dress and swept off her feet. in the end i thought that a pair of black boy shorts seemed like the best choice. |

this will be the back cover for Original Fish #2, which is almost done. i don't really want to show all the comics for it, cause then people won't have a reason to buy them, but showing stuff like this is no prob.
i still have copies of OF #1 by the way. get it while you can! order info is in a previous post. |
