Upcoming X-Men: The Next Mutation Episodes

Well this isn't something I haven't done before, but I thought it would be nice to do since the end of the year is just a few weeks away.

These are some of the upcoming adventures to expect next year from X-Men: The Next Mutation.....

-On Angel's Wings: Angel has gone through her Secondary Mutation and is using it to help heal people in need, leading many to believe that she's an actual angel. Unfortunately, this catches the ire of the religious zealot and disgraced reverend William Stryker, who believes mutants are the work of The Devil. And upon finding this out, he and his terrorist group, The Purifiers decide to teach the mutants and those who are on their side a lesson in the name of the Lord.

-Date Night in Murderworld: The first holiday special of the series! It's Valentine's Day, and The X-Men and their friends are heading to that new amusement park in town: Loverworld! But suddenly, this theme park turns from a place of love to a place of DEATH as literally everything starts trying to kill them! Now; The X-Men, Duncan, Taryn, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, and returning guest character Spider-Man and his girlfriend Chat, must fight for their lives and stop the madman in the charge of the park, who simply calls himself: Arcade.

-Old Frenemies: A pleasant birthday party for Wolverine gets tainted upon the unexpected visit of an old face from his past. This being the regenerative mercenary with a blabber mouth, Deadpool. Initially trying to past it off as a well-meaning visit, Deadpool would eventually reveal that he came to warn Wolverine as a trio of his past foes known as Team X, were coming for him. This team consists of the likes of Omega Red, Lady Deathstrike, and of course, Sabretooth.

-Teenage Mutant Ninja Mutants: The X-Men receive a new member in the form of a young British woman by the name of Betsy Braddock, who takes on the codename: Psylocke. However, her new membership will be put into question when The Westchester District finds itself attacked by the forces of the most feared ninja clan in the world: The Hand, who are after her.

-Surface Pressure: The students of Empire State University are going on a week-long cruise for spring break. However, The X-Men soon find themselves teaming up with Namor the Sub-Mariner in order to help him stop his arch-nemesis Attuma, who's planning on conquering the surface world with his army of giant sea monsters.

-Kitty's Fairy Tale: The first movie event. When Wolverine and Mariko go out for the night, Shadowcat and Lockheed are left in charge of babysitting. And so, the duo decided to tell Akihiro and Laura a bedtime story. The story sees our X-Men planted into the world of the 1001 Nights, where Shadowcat, Lockheed, Nightcrawler and Colossus are a pirate crew about to embark on a journey so grand, even the legendary Sinbad would have to give a thumbs-up to it!

-Party Crashers: The senior prom has arrived at Midtown High School, and Nightcrawler, Scarlet Witch, Colossus and Iceman are excited to have the night of their lives. Unfortunately, the party finds itself crashed by members of The Brotherhood.

-Close Encounters of the Mutant-kind: The X-Men find themselves be recruited by a society of multiversal variants of themselves, and now they have to prove their worth when an alliance of multiversal villains unleash an army of highly-advanced Sentinels onto their headquarters.

-Brothers Forever: The X-Men are off to Hawaii to visit their old friend, former fellow X-Men, and Cyclops' younger brother: Alex Summers, codename: Havok. As well as the rest of his team, the government and S.H.I.E.L.D.-sponsored X-Factor, consisting of Forge, Polaris, Strong Guy, Multiple Man and Emma Frost. However, things go south when upon their arrival, the team finds out that Havok has gone missing. And now, the search is on for the missing mutant teen. But their search will eventually lead them to the mutant madman who calls him The Living Pharaoh.

-Shock to the System: Spidey and Chat return again for another guest appearance! This time, they're helping The X-Men take down Electro, who after gaining his Secondary Mutation, plans on conquering all New York with its very own technology.

-Wrath of the Man-Apes: A survival training weekend in The Savage Land goes south when The X-Men get attacked and captured by the tribe of savage, ape-like humans known as The Man-Apes, who are planning on forcing them to fight in a death arena. However, Duncan and Taryn managed to escape capture, and now it's up to them to rescue their friends. Luckily, they'll be receiving help from The X-Men's old friend Ka-Zar and his saber-tooth tiger brother Zabu.

-Lovers of War: Wolverine and Mariko tell their kids and The X-Men the story of how they first met and how they fell in love.

-The Show of Strength: Cyclops, Beast, Colossus, Psylocke and Wolverine find themselves being transported to an inter-dimensional fighting arena alongside several other heroes and villains of notable physical strength by the psychotic inter-dimensional television host: Mojo. This was done for his latest reality television hit: The Show of Strength, where he'll split the transported individuals into two teams: Heroes and Villains, and have them fight each other in a series of either 1-on-1 or 2-on-2 battles. Whichever team wins will become the cast of his traveling wrestling show.....forever.

Well that's all for now!

Let me know what you guys think about these upcoming episodes!

And if you have any questions on them, shoot me an ask anytime!

owo what’s this??? a new character?? ❌NO! well yes AND no - INTRODUCING a shiny new retconned version of an Elysium’verse figure from long long ago…….

please give a horrible dread-filled welcome to Elysium’s very own original chaos goddess

😈🍎✨🎊ERIS🎊✨🍎😈

[seen here posing with long ago besties, OG villain squad Thanatos & OrigiMel!Melinoe — plus some cameos by…. POINTS UPWARDS]

Though Eris has ALWAYS been here, there have been many things changing in the Elysium’verse lately and one of which is that we’ve now formally revamped Eris completely, easy to do since I’ve never even drawn her previous incarnation! although this is a decision that bears really no weight in the active Elysium’verse bc currently Eris is still, in canon, locked away forever in Tartarus and she’s certainly not making any modern appearances —

BUT retroactively, not only has Eris wreaked plenty of (now, mostly vague) havoc in the distant past among our cast as a chaotic ally to famous Big Bads Thanatos and OrigiMel— specifically, we’ve also amplified her role in One Particular Event from long ago. and for me to draw THAT I needed to draw HER, so………. here she is! and WELL that post is coming up next!! HMM!!

quickly to note that Eris’ new design is inspired wholeheartedly by a couple of things in particular other than “general chaos”, INCLUDING: the wild patterns that Ancient Greek art is alleged to have originally been painted with, since E!Eris DOES come from Olympus; TMA!the spiral michael-helen rainbow brand swirly fanart; the specific asymmetry the internet says you should wear as hair/makeup to avoid being picked up on facial recognition; of course…the melty swishy Eris from obscure cartoon Sinbad uwu

and so, yay THIS before i can post The Next Big Thing!! one certified Eris Moment! my many doodles during the past several weeks of trying to nail down Eris’ design and Whole Vibe. even if she only exists in the past she sure is incredibly fun to draw!!

and oh boy stay tuned for what comes next..,,, this version of Eris and. well actually ALL these versions of everyone here are mine!!

[airasora]

Oh, I will send more later because they are super interesting but this one immediately got my attention: 33, What is their wedding day like? For Hollina, Rolfmaine, Quaselle and Sinric (I didn't plan on having two straight and two gay couples LOL those are the ones that are very intriguing to me in regards to the wedding)

What is their wedding day like?

Hollina

Holli and Lina's wedding would be a big event. They both know a lot of people and care about making their wedding be as great as their love for each other. Even though they have had their disagreements about certain aspects of their wedding (like Holli wanting something elegant and modern, and Lina wanting something princessy and fairytale-like) they have managed to meet in the middle and their wedding will be remembered for decades. Their wedding day is filled with flowers, fairy lights, karaoke, glass tiles for the dancing area, and you better believe their first dance is choreographed to the max! And they have a first song too, because of course they do.

I also made a short fanfic about Holli's feelings about wearing a wedding veil you can read here.

Rolfmaine

Both John and Anastasia agreed they wanted a big, disgustingly elegant wedding. John Rolfe is used to fancy parties with stuffy clothing and waltzing around in a ballroom, and while Anastasia can't dance to save her life, she loves the same things John does. Their guest list, however, would not be exceptionally big. Both of them have few family members and a few friends, so despite the elegant setting and atmosphere, the wedding would still be intimate. John would consider playing a diplomatic move and invite acquaintances, but ultimately he didn't want to have to put pressure on Anastasia on her wedding day.

Quaselle

Simple and sweet forest ceremony, not truly a traditional wedding. I don't see Belle being religious and Quasimodo would have a very strained relationship with Christianity after all the religious trauma he's been through. So their wedding would be much more about having a day where they tell the world they love each other and intend to be together till death do them part. Neither Belle or Quasimodo would want a big, fancy wedding either. And while some might have expected them to get married in Notre Dame, ultimately the place has too many bitter memories for Quasimodo despite Notre Dame holding a lot of good memories for him as well. And Belle is a simple girl, ultimately she only cares about marrying Quasimodo and sharing the moment with friends and family. The party AFTER the ceremony though? Big street party. Even though Belle and Quasimodo are somewhat introverted and prefer small gatherings, they have a huge amount of acquaintances who would want to celebrate them, and they wouldn't be against that. But the ceremony would be just for them, Maurice, Esmeralda, Phoebus and Zephyr.

Sinric

Eric's a prince; his wedding WILL be the event of the century, which is absolutely fine with Sinbad. They're both massive extroverts and thrive in big crowds, Sinbad especially loves all the attention and the jealous glances he'd get all day from bitter, rejected suitors of Eric. There's also the fact they had to hide their relationship for a while so once it's finally out there, they both want to show each other off to the world. Sinbad would hog Eric all night, dancing with him so much they'll both be exhausted by the time their wedding WEEK is over.

Sending Magi Week 2 Off With a Bang!

Loving Enja, collabing Mybad, then reading Sparmei...then realizing all these ships can be compatible in the same AU...decided to run all six names in the prompt generator!

Enjoy this crackgroup!

~*~

Ja’far, walking into their house: Hello, people who do not live here.

Kouen: Hey.

Spartos: Hi.

Koumei: Hello.

Sinbad: Hey!

Ja’far: I gave you the key to my place for emergencies only!

Mystras: We were out of Doritos.

~*~

Sinbad: Rules are made to be broken.

Ja'far: They were made to be followed. Nothing is made to be broken.

Spartos: Uh, piñatas.

Koumei: Glow sticks.

Kouen: Karate boards.

Mystras: Spaghetti when you have a small pot.

Sinbad: Rules.

Ja'far:

~*~

Kouen: Everytime I hear someone talking about updog, I’m torn between not wanting to fall for it and wanting to help them complete their joke.

Ja'far: Okay, but what is updog?

Spartos: Updog is a long sausage in a bun, often served with ketchup, mustard, onions, and/or relish.

Koumei: Not, that’s a hot dog. An updog is when a new version or patch of an application is released.

Sinbad: No, that's an update. You’re thinking of the fourth largest city in Sweden.

Mystras: Surely, that’s Uppsala, where’s updog is the giant spider in Harry Potter.

Kouen: That’s Aragog. Updog is a symbol conventionally used for an arbitrarily small number in analysis proofs.

Koumei: You’re thinking of epsilon. Updog is an upward-moving air current.

Spartos: No, that’s an updraft. An updog is the modern version of a henway.

Ja'far: What’s a henway??

Kouen: Oh, about five pounds.

~*~

Mystras: Time for plan G.

Spartos: Don’t you mean plan B?

Mystras: No, we tried plan B a long time ago. I had to skip over plan C due to technical difficulties.

Ja’far: What about plan D?

Mystras: Plan D was that desperate disguise attempt half an hour ago.

Koumei: What about plan E?

Mystras: I’m hoping not to use it. Sinbad dies in plan E.

Kouen: I like plan E.

~*~

Koumei: Ja'far... How do I begin to explain Ja'far?

Kouen: Ja'far is flawless.

Spartos: I hear their hair's insured for $10,000.

Mystras: I hear they do car commercials... in Japan.

Sinbad: One time they punched me in the face... it was awesome.

~*~

BONUS:

Muu, talking to Kouen on the phone: Did you preheat the oven like I told you to?

Kouen: You bet!

Muu: At what temperature?

Kouen: 535.

Muu: That's the clock.

Kouen:

Muu:

Kouen: 536.

I'm participating in Magi Week this year!! 🎉🎉🎉

•

This is a small event to help spread awareness about my favorite manga/anime series ever, Magi! Magi is a manga/anime that uses inspiration from Arabian Nights (or One Thousand and One Nights) to create something truly unique with magic, different races, different countries, etc! The world of Magi is extremely expansive, and there are easily 50+ reoccurring characters in the series and it's really really detailed- Each character and country have their own history and it's amazing to see these develop over the course of the series- its a huge reason why I love the series so much! I really, really hope people check out Magi from the art I post this week 😭😭 All the other details are on @ mlpdiamondrose 's Instagram page! 💜💜

Attention! Who wants more Sinbad?

Sweet magi/SnB fandom, raise your hands if you are interested in holding a Sinbad week event. There was a discussion about it in SnB book club server and most members thought it is cool. It will be held some time after inktober (if people are interested enough) , since most artists and authors are busy with that right now. Like or reblog or comment if you are interested. 🙏

[husbandograveyard]

I needed to come back for more after that adorable drabble 😍 can I ask for the word eye with Ja'far from Magi next please? ❤❤❤

Hiya Cookie and welcome back! Happy to write some more for the lesser known fandoms! :D

2nd person. Gn reader.

“Ja’far!”

It was the third time you had called out for him, his eyes glazed over as he stared at a stack of papers warily. Dark circles were under his eyes and you found yourself wondering when the last time was that you saw him take a break. Couldn’t possibly be weeks ago, right?

He finally snapped out of his daze with a soft “oh, y/n, I didn’t see you there,” and picked up his pen again. You grabbed it out of his hand, and you realized just how tired he was when his reflexes came almost two seconds too late to grab it back from you.

“I have been standing here for a full five minutes, calling out your name. You must’ve fallen asleep with your eyes open,” you said sternly, but you couldn’t keep your tone from changing into worry. “When’s the last time you had a proper sleep?” he shrugged in reply, trying to grab the pencil back. “Sinbad is gone for a diplomatic mission and someone has to keep the… keep the..” He nearly drifted off again right then and there.

“That’s it. You’re going to sleep right now.” He couldn’t protest much as you practically dragged him to his room, plopping onto the bed the moment he got there, and promptly passing out.

You smiled as you took off his shoes, tucked him in properly, and kissed his forehead. Now to make sure no one disturbed him for the next twenty hours or so.

Sinbad

Sinbad is loaded with cash so expect the most expensive gifts ever

Like this guy will casually buy you a mansion and blow it off as nothing

However he kind of sucks of buying you things you actually want

So because of this he just gives you cash

Gift giving isn’t really a way he shows affection so he isn’t good at getting meaningful gifts either

But he tries give him credit for that

Christmas with him is amazing besides gifts

He always has a great celebration planned on Christmas and gets stupidly drunk every single time

He definitely wears a Santa Claus costume

The days ends of with you dragging his unconscious body home

Ja’far

The week before Christmas is hellish for Ja’far

If he isn’t working on the event he’s finishing up other work

Props to him for being such a hard worker

Christmas Day is his actual break from the hard week and he loves to spend it with you

He’s actually shockingly good at always getting you exactly what you wanted

To the point it’s kind of scary

Besides that he doesn’t go to the event he just sits with you drinking some nice warm peppermint tea listening to Christmas music on the lowest volume possible

Ends off with him watching you sleep before he falls asleep himself

Christmas with Ja’far is lovely

Alibaba

This guy forgot it was Christmas.

Like he just remembered it after seeing all the decorations

So you know his gift is random as hell

But he’s so confident with his gift that confidence makes you like it

He tries to get you a gift that reminds him of you every year

And the gift is always.. interesting

But you know he tried his best

You guys are most definitely spending the holiday at the event with Aladdin

The event lasts until morning so you have to drag Alibaba out of there at 2AM

He’d be slightly tipsy but sober enough to take care of himself

Ends the night cuddling on the couch next to the fireplace

💌 💌 💌 headcanons on how sindria celebrates sinbad’s birthday 💌 💌 💌

happy birthday, sinbad ^w^ !!

it’s such a big celebration that is commonly called sinbad’s festival and everyone is welcomed to come to the party from everywhere even if only to enjoy the food and events

unlike you may think sinbad prefers not receiving a lot of gifts and spends a lot of the last weeks of march trying to remind everyone to please donate to whatever form of charity they have on the island or to spend that money to buy themselves something to wear during the night of the festival

now this wasn’t really his idea, but ja’far’s. sinbad really loves all his citizens and therefore can and will take his time to open every present and eat it or use it at least once. this would lead to his work in the next weeks being completely neglected and ja’far being the one to have to make up for that decided to pretty much ban the idea of gifts to the king

the party is filled with all kinds of spectacles and performances that have been requested, recommended or mentioned from the citizens to the generals since they are in charge of entertainment that day imagine masrur in a ferris wheel

the chef’s... oh the tired heroes that are the kingdom’s chef around the beggining of april... while they do make “traditionally common food” such as containing animal products and all kinds of textures. they take on the job of making dishes specially for people with different eating habits. such as people who can’t stand certain textures, vegan or vegetarian people and anyone with food allergies i came up with an actual but complicated way they decide what they make but i don’t think u guys want to hear that

im gonna be self indulgent here and with the idea that hinahoho loves cooking im going to say all of his children either took his love for it or at least are very talented at it and they try and fill people’s special request when it comes to allergies for the big party

however everyone is encouraged to bake and cook everything they want and so 90% of the festival food is made by the people in the kingdom

the festival itself lasts from april second to the third but if any kind of built in games or places have been brought for it such as a ferris wheel or stuff you could find in a fair, that usually stays for a whole week

the days after the actual party are taken as a recovery time for the king and everyone who might need it where everyone tries to be quiet and keep to themselves. if built in games were brought they are not turned on the very next day and instead reopen on the fourth of april

sinbad a lot of the times takes the next day (april third) completely isolated to recharge and no one really forces him to verbally communicate since big gatherings like this while fun and joyful do take a lot of energy from him and everyone is understanding

[morimakesfanart]

Hi (●’◡’●)ﾉ first I'm not trying to be rude or rush it's a genuine question 😅 but ruffly how long does it take to write and draw one chapter? I've always wanted to write and draw my own comic but as a college student I hardly have time 😅

It completely depends on the level of detail in the drawings and the number of panels. It's been a while since I timed myself. I took a while to answer this so I could see how long things actually take for me right now. Also, note I am doing this while working a full time job, taking care of my family, and doing constant physical therapy to combat my chronic pain and other disabilities. (I only have about 10 hours of free time every week to work on drawing comics if I'm lucky.)

I write my stories in arcs. First I write a lot of events and character developments (including character motivations) that will happen in the arc -often this is just in my head (not written down). Then I just start writing and I don't worry if it's good or in character though I will still try to do that. The point of this is to give me a more concrete outline to work with. "It's easier to edit and change something than it is to make something new," I think that's how that saying goes. Then I reread and edit/rewrite scenes keeping every character's motivation in mind. This often leads to many changes in how things happen because once every character is having their motivation and ability to problem solve considered they can't act as plot devices as easily.

With fanfiction specifically, this is the stage where I rewatch and reread scenes with the characters I'm writing. The types of neurodivergent that I am makes mimicking and mirroring easier for me. It also helps that I grew up in theater. I do my best to mimic their ways of talking, and get into their head space so I can better write them. When I reread what I wrote and I can hear the actor's voice in my head then I know I captured the personality of the character.

Writing an arc normally takes me 3-5 months depending on length and what I have to set up for the start of the next arc. As the first chapters in the arc solidify I can start posting them, but only if I have about 1/4-1/2 of the arc written out in full. When writing, I go back and forth between all the chapters to make sure that there is enough foreshadowing and follow through. I reread my own story many times to make sure every flows together too.

Now for the drawing/comics side:

The long chapters of Sindria's Prophet have as much plot as 3-6 chapters of comics. Webtoons originals have a minimum of 30 panels per chapter for their plot based series. My average for comic chapters is about 45-50. (I am not an Originals writer & post on both Tapas and Webtoons CANVAS.) After learning how short their chapters are, I've started writing shorter chapters.

I can get done chibi panels in 15-30 minutes. My slice of life comic is normally 5 panels, but sometimes I've gone as high as 15. I tend to take between 45 minutes and 2 hours to get done 5 panel chibi comics.

Non-chibi panels take between 30 minutes and 2 hours. That's for each panel. If it's just a head shot and I've draw that character from that angle before it can be done in 15 minutes as long as it's not a character with a lot of accessories.

The lineart for the Gojo piece I recorded before took about 20-30 minutes. I was also chatting with a friend at the time or I probably could have done it faster. I got the whole thing done at a leisurely pace in about 2.5-3 hours. (picking colors took me a while.) The Sinbad sitting up in bed illustration took about 2-2.5 hours because of the amount of detail that went into the background and checking references. Most of that time was on line art. only about 5-10 minutes were shading.

A waist up of Sinbad with all of his metal vessels used to take me 2-3 hours for just the lineart because of the amount of detail. I've cut it down to 1-1.5 hours since I've drawn him so much and have figured out short cuts for drawing him.

To cut time for my original comic, I don't do shading anymore, but I do have a flat grey layer so I have a few tones to help things stand out. I do most of the shading in the lineart now. For special moments I will use a shading layer though.

Time break down for about 40 panels (after scripting): 5-10 panels will be chibi - 75-150 mins (1h15m -2h30m) 5-10 panels copied with minor edits - 60-100 min (1h-1h40m) 5-10 panels of just head shots etc - 150-210 min (2h30m-3h30m) 5-10 panels of high detail/ with background - 330-630 min (5h30m-10h30m) Total: 10h15m - 17h55m

This does not include figuring out panel layout or lettering etc. For that add another 2-4 hours. Also note that none of my comics are in full color. For full color add 30mins -1h30m per panel. I have an editor for my original work which adds a lot of extra time too.

Things taking so long to draw is why I only make some comics for the fanfic instead of drawing the whole thing. We would still be in the Balbadd arc if this was a full comic

[highseaskxng]

completely unprompted // always open

@rainbowacrosstime​ asked: 

"Sin. Do you think ... Aoi hates me?" Ayame speaks as she watches the five year old pup asleep in her Papa's arms, having enjoyed her daughter and mate having come to the mountains for a visit. Emerald hues focused on the scars on her back, the ones caused by the incident with the Birds of Paradise a few weeks ago.

"After all, I wasn't there to protect her that day. None of us were. We got distracted by the boy's first hunt, but that's no excuse. If we paid more attention to her, then we could have prevented this ... Some mother I turned out to be ..."

He heard his lover’s troubles and okay they were understandable, Sinbad understood that there could be doubt within the wolf’s heart but to wonder if her daughter loved her?? That was far beyond the thoughts of insane. So Sinbad responds the only way he knows how, using his height as an advantage and ruffles the shorter woman’s hair until it was only a slight mess whilst keeping the young one in his arms.

“She loves you with all of her being and soul. It’s just a really traumatic event for her. In fact she even wishes she was braver and stronger like her brothers so you could be proud of her too. I’m sure one day you’ll see just how much this princess adores you, I’d say it’s even enough to rival my own love for you. You’re a great mother, I’m the one that needs to try and be a better father. In truth, dragons where I’m from aren’t very paternal. We abandon our young from the moment it's born,so I’ve never really known my father until I was much older.”

“The Island Of Beasts” — Concept Sketches

Another movie idea that pays homage/tribute to the work and films of Ray Harryhausen, specifically the VERY first film I ever saw that introduced me to his work, “The Seventh Voyage Of Sinbad”. (Descriptions from DeviantArt)

...

1) Concepts for the look of the Cyclops.

2) A design of the cyclops that I’m happy with. King Kong, the Ray Harryhausen cyclops and among other sources, served as inspiration for this guy. 

3) A basilisk based on this depiction: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Basilisk_aldrovandi.jpg 

4) A collection of mythical beasts such as: the chimera, a pair of cyclops (fighting over a meal), a griffin, a harpy, a unicorn and a basilisk. For the story, it’s about a bunch of explorers going on an adventure to a island inhabited by various creatures from mythology. Inspiration being King Kong, the Sinbad films by Ray Harryhausen, among others. 

5) Illustrations of a few scenes I have in my head:  - Harpy attack. - A mad unicorn rocking a log bridge w/ some unfortunate people who are hanging onto deer life. A nod to King Kong. - Valley/pit of snakes that pick off the crew. Inspired by this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B3OjfK0t1XM, as I feel it would make for a good action sequence for a fantasy story.   - As two crew members set sail the cyclops follows them out to the ridge’s edge. 

6) In this 1st draft of the idea/story I had in mind it was to starts off w/ a grand wedding on a supposed abandoned/uninhabited island out in the Mediterranean Sea. Not long after the preparations and everything is finally set up and the event is to commence, a terrible cyclops interrupts the ceremony. Going in for an easy meal initially, but quickly decides on going after the bride and claiming her for himself as his prize. Carrying her off deep into cyclops territory near the centre of the island. Being charmed by her pretty face and lovely dress. Others of his kind would also find this quality alluring and to their fancy. Even going as far as to try and take her from him. Their marital partner by now, along w/ the aid of an Sinbad-adventurer/jungle explorer type, would venture forth to retrieve the snatched bride. Based off some earlier artwork of mine from years back (can be found in my DeviantArt gallery: https://www.deviantart.com/artmakerproductions/art/Clash-Of-The-Cyclops-725451173) that had an aged/old man cyclops and a younger cyclops that was still in their prime. 

7) A rough storyboard concept for the introduction of the explorer/adventurer-type character. Here she can see the cyclops w/ the bride in hand from up on the mountainside. The idea for the story (at the moment) has her already on the island, maybe by a week or so, and helps out w/ the rescue mission. Why she's even there in the first place is because she's on a search for the elusive 'cave of untold riches' said to be somewhere on the island. A lifelong goal she's had for years now. 8) A bunch of concept sketches for a dragon. 

9) Dark Thorn: A reclusive sorcerer who lives a secluded life on the island. Using a cave (far out of the reach of the creatures of the island) as his living quarters. Hardly ever ventures out unless it’s for gathering ingredients for his spells or food and water. His only companion is a brown bat. Crystals embedded in his staff are where he draws his power from. Which he uses to assist himself in walking as he is very weak in the legs, practically crippled, and needs to keep it in hand. Otherwise he risks collapsing/falling over. Despite his appearance, crabby and somewhat dry attitude, he is not that bad of a guy. Even going as far as to aid the characters in their retrieval of the kidnapped bride. So a bit of history for some context. Waaaay back in 2017, I created the character "Dark Thorn", who has shown up from time to time in the past (ex. www.deviantart.com/artmakerpro…). This being a redesign/repurpose of that character. 

Cyclops & the Bride: The Cyclops climbs up the rocky mountainside to it's lair w/ the annoyed kidnapped bride in his hands thinking to herself, "This is bullsh*t." Grows a fondness for the beauty in white. 

Chimera: The myth, the legend, it's the Chimera. Used as a guard dog by another inhabitant of the island, the one who sent the cyclops to retrieve the bride, to keep intruders and the other beasts of the island out. She's pretty pissed a majority of the time. But then again, I'm sure anyone would be pissed if they were chained up 24/7 for years and years. Would get released by the characters as a diversion, and would go on to kill her enslaver as payback. 

10) Various concept sketches of the explorer/adventurer character. From the top to bottom, it started off as a guy before I decided on it being a woman.

Aftereffects of Big Three’s Drinking Contest

If Magi Season 3 ever happens, I’d love some more opportunistic interactions between characters during the Summit. This one comic is so spot on with the Big Three’s characterization, it begs to be included in some form.

{Note, clicking on the left arrow will go to the next panel in the sequence, followed by 2 bonuses and a prequel, but I put the panels up in sequential order at the end for convenience--don’t know who to credit for it, but it’s brilliant!}

Here’s a bit of my Season 3 scripting inspired from said comic

SCENE:

After many drinks, Sin is passed out, mumbling about beautiful women, and Kouen is rambling on about his goatee. Myron/Koumei/Ja’far find the trio

Muu: *sweatdrop* Hey, Myron, Could you get Lord Sinbad to his bed?

Myron: Yeah, yeah, whatever...

Ja’far: (thinking) Wait...Sin’s drunk… (out loud) Stop! Don’t let a female near that drunk man!

Sin makes passes at Myron, but she goes unladylike to defend herself against him

Muu: I think she’ll be fine, Sir Ja’far.

Ja’far: -_-+ I’m gonna kill him.

Muu: (to Ja’far and Koumei) Would you fellas care to share a drink with me?

Ja’far: I’d rather not. Nothing personal.

Koumei: It would not be wise for me to consume, however I do not mind keeping you company as you have your fill. Your tolerance seems to be high, whereas mine is low.

Muu: Haha. Well, I am part Fanalis. I’ve already had three times the amount as your brother.

Ja’far: In that case, I would appreciate it if you were more insistent on not drinking with King Sin next time. He is supposed to be on an alcohol abstinence right now.

Muu: My apologies, I tried my hardest.

Kouen: (mumbling to self) What does Hakuryuu mean that my fashion sense is like Hakuei’s cooking?! *slams table*

Koumei: Seems like I must offer my apologies, I should get my brother and king to bed.

Ja’far: Please, allow me. It’s the least I can do to make up for my king’s behavior, especially after he instigated all this.

Koumei: Why thank you *smiles with hand behind head* (eyes narrow thinking) This is perfect, now I can solidify our arrangement with Reim while my brother and king sees to weakening Sindria.

Ja’far: My pleasure *smiles as hoisting Kouen up with arm around his shoulder* (eyes narrow thinking) This is perfect, now I can gather intelligence without seeming suspicious.

Bonus:

In Kouen’s cabin, Ja’far lets Kouen down on his bed

Kouen: No one’s ever complimented my goatee. Tell me, do you like it? Be honest. I can take it.

Ja’far: Hmmm, well Sin did say how he liked how you could pull it off. Yes. I think it suits you.

Kouen: Is that so? Huh, didn’t think your king had such good taste. Perhaps...he isn’t so bad.
