Click on a vampire bat but not a baseball bat for full-sized image Is there some kind of tactical advantage to becoming a bat during a super battle? Sure, they have erratic flight paths but they are tiny and fragile. I tried to make this vampire bat at least look as menacing as possible with […]

Kick 21×06
Kickman Returns #6 Round 1 goes to Java… I mean Kickman. In case the last two panels are not perfectly clear… Kickman side-stepped and used a spinning back heel kick ala Tae Kwon Do to connect with nut while Superior Man’s leg was still in the air in mid-kick. That is some precision kick work […]

Click on magic sparkles for full-sized image Everybody Wang Chung tonight. I thought another way this gag could go is that the Rakshasa’s mirror images are all in gray tones, because tigers only see in black and white. That probably would have required a lot more exposition to explain than I could handle in 3 […]

Kickman Returns #5 Next time, let the sidekick handle the art. Just finished this strip in the nick of time for publication. That stupid double panel of the inside of a busy newsroom took a long time. Same with the first ever exterior view of Superior Palace in Superior City. I don’t like drawing “stuff” […]

Click on the glowy eyes for full-sized image Add “resistance to glowy eye mind control” to Java’s list of super-human… uh, super-feline abilities. Java Vs Vampire Vs Rakshasa! I always thought that boxing would be a lot more interesting if there were three boxers at a time. Or if it were a team sport. For […]
Kickman 21×04
Kickman Returns #4 Dramatic timing is not his super power. Kickman opens up with a bold, possibly suicidal, move. For those wondering, Kickman’s super strength in his legs does not extend to other appendages below the waist. A kick from Superior Man will destroy him… absolutely. So obviously there is some other plan afoot. Right? […]

Click on Java’s hard stare for full-sized image Java rejects both daddy’s! But how will a vampire handle being rejected by his presumed spawn? How about a rakshasa and his presumed offspring? Will they take no for an answer? How much insolence can they take? Stay tuned next week! As all scones are BOGO 50% […]

Kickman Returns #3 Next Week: Kickman Calls Out Superior Man! For those unfamiliar with the nation of Corto Maltese, it’s a fictional island nation that appeared in the graphic novel Batman: The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller. The country (territory?) is mentioned once in the first Batman movie with Michael Keaton and there are […]

Click on the hiking boot tread for full-sized image No one even had a chance to hit him with a glowy-eye attack. This will probably be the last time we see Dingo Jack for a long time. Although, really, think of the opportunity. He could kill and eat a Rakshasa and a Vampire to “nick […]

Kickman Returns #2 Emperor Superior Man continues to rule the world issuing random and juvenile edicts, although I think most of us would agree with Superior Edicts #’s 3 through 14 regarding traffic etiquette. Some of those are just plain good manners and common sense. “3 cars go through on the yellow!” After two weeks, […]
