Tom, I know you said nobody do this idea, but this isn't really 'doing it'. Just for kicks, anyhow!

Edit: Fixed?

Poor Matt.

Nice work, RJ, though the outline of Larry's puny genitalia is something I'd prefer not to have seen.

What is/was amiss, I wonder?

Haha, why'd you go and draw my attention to that?

Mike is ominous in the background.  His late arrival at the bloodbath makes me think of Victor the Cleaner.

But I do love how the npr price is a nickel.

Sarah, putting genitalia on notice so the rest of us can share in the horror? Nice.


Also Joe, I want your art inside me.  :-*

I love imagining the dull thud of the apple rolling around in Mike's briefcase as he enters the doorway.

I can't help but recall the whole subject of Fredericks being involved with the end of the world now.

That is excellent!  I never knew Pastor Josh was so bearded.  Can I be brought on as the SCUMM Force newby in Volume 2?  Please?  I'm tall, know Kung Fu, and have a really sweet Louisville slugger in the trunk of my car!

As the story develops, I would like to contribute this character trait for our beloved AP_Mike; he makes a deal that for every 3 enemies he kills, he gets to kill anybody else he wants to, so he's further committed to offing the enemy by the motivation of having the opportunity to kill anybody who's just pissing him off.

Mike as portrayed in this picture reminds me of Pinhead with a luxurious head of lustrous white hair.
Title: Re: S.C.U.M.M. Force
Post by: senorcorazon on August 17, 2009, 08:59:14 AM
Lovely.

Written by Matt Fraction, I assume?

Yes, Pastor Josh seems much more menacing (and bearded) than I expected from a Man of the Lord.

Joe, you're the best, that's amazing.

Of all the many terrifying things on that cover, the most terrifying is that it looks like the guy getting kicked in the face had to listen to Larry read through the entire script, dere. How many times must he have begged Mike to just start hitting him with the hammer, only to have Mike stand in the doorway and silently refuse?
Title: Re: S.C.U.M.M. Force

I think Pastor Josh looks a lot like Hank Scorpio.

By necessity, APMike would be played by APMike, and Spike would be played by Ron Jeremy. I don't know, Hugman as Pastor Josh? Bruce Dern as Fredericks?

I always pictured Larry as more of an Eddie Deezan-type.

WFMU's own "Nick the Bard" could certainly get the voice-work part of Larry the Perv (sorry, LAY-uh-ree) for an animated version of the project.

And am I the only one that pictured Larry as much younger?

Great job, Joe! I've always pictured Fredericks as Matthew McConaughey gone to seed, too.

One of my favorite parts of this was getting to draw a genuine comic book antagonist into a comic. That you like it is the best I could hope for!

For the record, I did consult briefly with both Fredericks and Pastor Josh on their appearances, so this is as accurate as could be based on that. For Larry the Perv, I just guessed. Also, Pastor Josh is wearing the sunglasses from Blade, which in hindsight may have put things over the top intimidation-wise. But I still like it.

I think my face just melted, was listening to the archives, Tom speaking to Fredericks on the phone while showing PO the SCUMM Force poster I had no idea existed. Awesome. This idea needs to be developed further, TV/Comic Book. I need to stop clicking on that 'show unread posts since last visit', I miss things using that.
