New Joyce art

by David M Willis on September 27, 2010 at 12:00 pm
Posted In: Blog

Enjoy some additional Joyce art.  I realized I wasn’t really satisfied with the original stock Joyce artwork (the one that’s shown next to her assortment of sweater vests), and so I was driven to create a new one.  That original DoA Joyce art was drawn in, like, July, anyway, so I think I’m allowed to hate it by now.

This is what being an artist is like.  Constantly hating your older work.  And the turnover rate is astounding!

Is a Frag Forever?

Let’s spelunk through my hard drive.

Hey, remember Quake 2?  Ahahahaha.  So, like, people would build models for it so they could play as different folks in multiplayer.  That was apparently easy enough, but easier even still was drawing up new skins for these models.

Here’s a Ruth skin I created in 1999 for someone else’s Rei Ayanami model.

She died a lot.

ROOOOFs!

I’m not sure why Ruth was the hardest to get in the mood for drawing alternate clothes for.  I had a more difficult time thinking of her wearing something other than the first-day’s outfit for some reason.  The green and black is basically perfect.  Not any other dumb stuff.

But now that I have the hockey jersey in her arsenal, though, I’ve changed my mind.  That’s totally Ruth.  She will check you.  And not out.

You will suffer grievous wounds.

LAWsome

by David M Willis on September 22, 2010 at 12:01 pm
Posted In: Blog

Today’s midday post is a little different from the others.  This one has nothing to do with Dumbing of Age at all, and everything to do with people on Twitter and Formspring asking me to put back online my greatest webcomic of all time.

LAWsome.

Back in 2004, when It’s Walky! was ending, I was struggling to find a new webcomic idea to follow it.  It’s Walky! had left some big shoes to fill!  My only recourse was to take the strip’s most popular characters, lawyer Bart O’Ryan and that asshole Mike Warner, and give them their own series.

Alas, it was too much for the world to take, and I had to settle for a less potent webcomic sequel about toys or some shit.  But today, collected together on the Internet (and digitally remastered!) for the first time in half a decade, I give you LAWsome:

LAWsome #2

LAWsome #3

LAWsome #4

It’s Sarah! Updated.

by David M Willis on September 21, 2010 at 2:23 pm
Posted In: Blog

Hello everybody who’s visiting from Something*Positive!  (Randy lost a bet.)  I hope you enjoy my simple strip about a co-ed college dormatory.

If you’re new here, I’ve been posting my “model sheets”  which show alternate outfits for the characters into the blog day to day as they show up in the comic.  Today is Sarah’s day!  I think I’m gonna go mostly purple, magenta, and green with her, as you can see, with lots of layered clothing.

A version of Sarah appeared in one of my older webcomics, but she didn’t get much chance to shine there.  This will be different this time!  The interplay between her and her roommate, Joyce, is going to be one of the big focuses of Dumbing of Age.

We have two major problems in our party: We have a courage problem and we have a competition problem. Because we don't challenge the status quo or people who are in safer blue seats nearly enough, we [end up with certain] candidates who get really comfortable. [highlighted by me] And if there's anything that I've learned from activism and organizing, it's that comfortable people — especially politicians — do not change.

Me two weeks ago: Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, not to protect anyone, but because entering prison as the world's most illustrious pedophile makes that a logical decision. Conspiracy theories make less sense than the stated story. Me now: The Pee Tape was shot on Epstein Island.

I need more Muslim characters! Or at least more prominent ones who aren't Raidah. It is a huge giant hole in my strip that makes it suck. The current storyline would've been way better if they existed. But they don't, and no amount of throwing Asma in for three strips solves it.

Happy Nonbinary People's Day, you gemstones. A year or two back we introduced FLASH GORDON's first enby, the outlaw lawman Bones Malock. Having known and loved a lot of nonbinary people, I knew the truest way to represent you was as a unsettling desert pirate with a lightning sword
Flash Gordon's Bones Malock:
Bones Malock, under captions reading:
Bones Malock and Flash Gordon.

Flash: Okay... wait thirty seconds, then give me a distraction.

Bones: Got just the thing.

Flash: Do NOT blow the place up.

Bones: You're the boss.
