Branching out

In a fit of writer's-block, I started a Tumblr as a companion for the blog, if only because that'll be easier to update regularly with the art dumps days and stupid, quick entries than the longer stuff I try to write for here. Check it out at The Punishipstumblr. That's right, a TRIPLE-PORTMANTEAU. This way, I'll feel better posting something more frequently, and less self-conscious about only posting on here when I actually feel like writing until I can get what I actually want to write squared away.

To start with, I've already posted the horrible mash-up of my love for Man-Thing and my enjoyment of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic that frankly I'm surprised I didn't get to sooner: THE MANE-THING.

I've never been prouder.

Art dump: Venomsaurus, The Worthy

Another drawing I finished lately. Based on something Matt Fraction off-handedly said on the most recent episode of War Rocket Ajax, I felt compelled to doodle up the image of the Venomsaurus Rex from Millar's Old Man Logan getting one of the Serpent's hammers from Fear Itself:

Art dump: Dex-starr Triumphant

Getting back into posting on here is comparable to driving my car back when the gas pump was acting up: I'll get a little ahead, the thing'll die on me, wait a bit, start it back up, drive about half a mile before it dies again, repeat. Now I'm a stubborn enough asshole that, following that pattern, I got my car home to central CT from Providence, RI, and I'll apply the same stubbornness to this blog. Posts may be sporadic, but for the foreseeable future it won't go away. Can I buy a new gas-pump for a blog?

Anyways, in the interest of getting some content up here, I'll post some of the drawings I finished lately. First up, as a fan of the Red Lanterns (and maybe one in particular), a Dex-Starr piece:

Rebootin'

Not sure if I'm going to be coming back to this as regularly as I would like, but if I was waiting for something to come back and talk about, it'd be the DC universe rebooting in September. There is good, there is bad, there is good ideas being executed poorly; the only short version is that it's a thing that's happening. Until we actually live through it, there's no way to tell if it's going to work or not so there's almost no point in speculating. What I can do, however, is break down my reactions as a fan to the information we do know at this point.
