Description One of the splash pages from a 3-issue limited series comic book I'm working on at a PAINFULLY slow rate. I would mention that it's a weird story but I guess that's probably pretty obvious.

Another page from the comic is here:

Thanks for looking!

The first issue (of 3) is available here: [link] although shipping to Japan might be very pricey, if they even do it. I think you mentioned you often get stuff sent to your folks' place in the US though (was that you?) so that might be the way to go. In any case, thanks for your interest!

I'm a sucker for mad scientists and laboratories. I hope you finish this comic within, say, the next 50 years. My corporeal status will be pretty iffy after that.

Well, at 98 I'll likely slowing down a bit by then too! I am almost finished penciling page 19 of the 24 pages in the first issue (#1 of 3) and I have up to page 15 inked, so I'm actually optimistic that this should be out before summer. And by that I think I probably even mean the summer of 2011.

Thanks for your interest. I wish I wasn't so slow but I'm trying to make sure it's worth it in the end. Thanks for the fave too, of course!

Good day to you,

Great stuff! The idea that the mad doctor has a permit is brilliant.

Yeah! This is the way comics are meant to be. Top stuff. I especially like the gravity-defying eyebrows.

Huwman In reply to Calliope-Kid [2010-04-13 20:29:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I'm glad some people still dig the oldschool stuff. Bad guys should always have eyebrows like that - and I hate to admit it but they tend to run in our family. I mean those eyebrows, not bad guys!

I've always had a trouble with anything but 3/4 views too, as well as under lighting. Nice work!

I like this a lot, esp. the retro feel to it. Lots of action and drama, just how it should be. I enjoyed the other page you linked to too.

Thanks! And thanks for the fave!

Yep, this limited series/graphic novel (whatever) is pretty much just that: old fashioned comics fun throughout. As soon as I get the paying work outta here I think the positive response has given me the impetus to keep plugging away at the thing. Gotta try to at least get the first (of 3) issues out this year!

Thanks again.

I hate to argue with MLM but I don't think anyone else believes you need that at all! A nicely rounded lady is a good thing but a "nicely rounded man", er . . . not so good!

At least I'm not pear-shaped; the "child-bearing hips" thing really doesn't work for dudes.

Huwman In reply to ElectricGecko [2010-03-22 15:45:58 +0000 UTC]

All I will say is the little beast is not really harmed although he/she is altered somewhat - but not in the way dogs are usually "altered"!

ElectricGecko In reply to Huwman [2010-03-23 01:11:08 +0000 UTC]

Hey, people have been altering dogs for tens of thousands of years! Look at the chihuahua. What an affront to nature! Surely this scientist is doing no worse.

lagatowolfwood In reply to Huwman [2010-03-21 21:46:20 +0000 UTC]

I completely understand that, paying work is the reason I myself haven't been busting out more drawings on here. It's been months since I've drawn a zombie, I think I'm having zombie withdrawals.

Are you writing it too?

Huwman In reply to Dave-Acosta [2010-03-21 22:57:24 +0000 UTC]

Oh, yes, writing, breakdowns, pencils, inks and lettering all by me. I'm also doing a map that sort of explains this bizarre world in which the story takes place, and I think it may be the single most complex piece or art I've ever drawn. Once that's done I hope I can loosen up my style a bit and start cranking out pages.

Of course the paying work has to come first though. Sigh.

It will be done some day though. Great to know some people are interested at least!
