Huh? Book IV?
Yup! I suddenly decided that where we were was a good place to end issue 3. The events that were Issue 3 “Shadows of Humanity” are now stretched over two issues.
And this page WILL BE IN COLOR!! Just some hours after the B&W version. So come back later to see the bloody Masters and Benton.

Don’t mess with senior citizens! ![]()
Next we’ll be going back to WWII to check out what happened to Archie and Benton…
-Scott-
Dang! Doesn’t take a lot to get the old schedule jumoing off of the tracks…
But we’re back after the minor hacking incident. And with a color page to make up for time lost.
So tell me… does the bloody Nazi in the second to last panel look at all familiar?
-Scott-
Okay, first off, I know that the background in the previous page doesn’t match this one. I didn’t have time to do a cool (cliché too, I know) infirmary, so it was left pretty empty. This time I whipped up a real classic white tiled medical room, fully equipped with everything you need to patch up enhanced super humans.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with the term “woman in the fridge” it’s used when refering to stories where the hero’s wife/girlfriend is killed pretty much just so he has a reason to chase after the badguys. I’m sure you can think of quite a few movies that use this technique.
Other victims are pets. Usually a dog. Whenever you see that a hero has a pet dog you just know that the poor thing isn’t going to make it to the end of the film. I’m tempted to give one of my characters a dog just so I can keep him alive.
Anyways… Diana will be going off to Africa soon. We probably won’t see that until next issue. The flashbacks for that story will be Miss Masque’s origin story. It’s pretty far from the original, but cool just the same.
-Scott-
Nice view from the Eagle’s Nest…
The trio of Doc Hugo Strange, Captain Future and Blue Beetle (who will be named just Beetle for trademark reasons when this goes to print.) Beetle’s unmasked, but if this was in color you’d see that Danny has light orange hair.
Will Danny get the law laid down to him as hinted earlier… we’ll see.
-Scott-
Again, not quite at the stroke of midnight, but Monday just the same.
So… aother character that Archie’s gone and brushed the wrong way… Tsk, tsk, tsk. And for those of you who LIKE the temperament of Danny Garret AKA Blue Beetle, stick with us and you’ll get to see him in action!

Well hello!! Long time no etc. etc.
I’ve fallen off of the radar lately sorry about that. It hasn’t been my style to just drop off of the updating schedule without informing everyone, but something HUGE came up and it’s taken a bit longer than I thought.
But we’ll be back on schedule REAL SOON!!
Until then here’s a sketch that (also) started to take too much time and was left halfway done.
Who is he? Like he said he’s NOT Nick Fury, but like Colonel Nicholas Joseph Fury he too likes gadgets…
Seeya soon.
EDIT: I’ve been getting a lot of “flack” over the statement that this character was kicking butt before Nick Fury. I was referring to the fact that this guy was created in 1941. Nick Fury was created in the 60′s. I know all about Fury being in WWII with his Howling Comandos etc. It was a light-hearted comment. A JOKE…
-Scott-
WE’RE BACK! Whoohoo!
Wow! I really didn’t mean to be away this long. Sorry about that. So where was I? What was i up to? Well, more on that later…
So… Danny Garret (Blue Beetle) getting his butt kicked by the Rodent. And who is that Mysterious OLD Nazi? Well, he’s a character from the original storyline (yeah, the one I keep mentioning. The one with NO superheroes) We’ll see more of him in this issue. Actually lots of him.
Next update is page 10 and we’ll see our first glimpse of Captain Battle (as he promised) only he’s not a captain anymore…
Oh…I’ll be painting another character tonight and hopefully I’ll FINALLY have a new voting incentive up soon.
Seeya!
