#action comics are hard to do

I'm new here, are your FT redesigns for a fic/comic you have or plan on making? Sorry, I just absolutely love the designs and how they come together ^^
Hello! The redesigns are really just for fun! Occasionally I'll make a little comic like I did with my "levy being angry and hating gajeel" idea, but outside of that I don't have plans for a full fairy tail rewrite.
Main reason is: in the future (hopefully within the next year) I'd like to properly start my own personal comic and any fairy tail redux would be a massive commitment that would take years to complete!
I do have ideas for one or two more mini comics if I can thumbnail them.
Thank you for your kind words as well! I'm glad you like them!
#fairy tail#anon#ask#moltenrambles#i do still want to make some stickers/keychains/ a few prints#and i have ideas for more redesigns#as much as i complain about mashima i will say#action comics are hard to do

Columbo and the Knight (1984)
put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
Autism W!
#columbo#knight rider#art#michael knight#kitt#comic#highlight reel#crossover#telebeast#there are two small easter eggs here. can you find them. they were somehow not Entirely lost when i resized these for the public#this is what i mean when i say I Draw And It's Everyone Else's Problem. look at my INCREDIBLY niche crossover comic boy#if the knight rider fandom has like 12 people in it. how many of y'all have seen columbo#this comic is for like 4 people and me and phoenix are already two of them#niche is my specialty lets be real. weird niche obscure shit and ships nobody's paid attention to yet#not to suggest this is ship art. columbo has his wife and michael has his car lmfao#stylizing real people is EXTREMELY hard btw sorry for when they get off model. its partly a 'better imperfect than never finished' situatio#cant tell you how much i redrew some of these panels. weeps#this took me 2 weeks but i think i thumbnailed it all in may and the ideas been rollin around in my head since march#is anybody good at editing. please edit michael and columbo into an image together like its a screenshot. NOT generated. edited.#it would be so cool#ive drawn columbo a lot but i haven't drawn a lot of michaels. i was learning things about his outfit AS I WAS DOING THE DAMN#COLORS ON THIS. all the lines done. it was too late to change anything. i did all the lines and colored page by page#i realized my mistakes on like page 3. 1 and 2 were already done. it was Too Late.#imagine it though. them working a case together. switching between the more serious tone of columbo vs the goofier#action antics of michael and kitt. columbo being so impressed by Modern Technology. there's more i could say but phoenix may write#more of this crossover and i don't want to spoil it :'3#there's opportunity here though i swear. there's gold to be dug.#i like how kitt gets shading but columbo's junker peugeot doesn't. kitt looked wrong without any. columbo's car is matte and dirty#i also applied effects to this to make it look a little film-grainy and VHS like. some CRT TV vibes#the only question left is. did they put knight rider into columbo; or columbo into knight rider 🤔

Does that mean you watched the new sonic movie?
If so, how did you like it?
Spoiler alert vvv
I have, and I did like it, but I dunno if I vibe with it as much as other people seem to do. TBF I've never loved the live action Sonic movies, they're decent enough but definitely not my favorite piece of Sonic media. That being said, this was probably my favorite out of the movies so far? They have improved a lot since the first one which is great to see.
One thing I think the movie did great was the action scenes, the coreography and animation was so fun and impactful and incredibly exciting to see! I also think the movie did a good job on selling us on Shadow's and Maria's friendship in a short period of time, that little montage of the two of them just doing a bunch of silly goofy shenanigans was really endearing. The wholesome innonsence of it all makes Maria's death hurt way more.
EXTRA spoiler, but arguably one of the things that made me the most excited in ghe movie was the post credit scene where Amy showed up LMAOOOO I've been waiting for her to show up. And I exepcted Metal Sonic to show up sooner or later in these movies, but I didn't expect a whole army of them haha but that seems like a fun idea.
#i have a hard time expressing my problems with the movies other than ''i just don't vibe with them'' lmao#maybe it's a pacing issue? you can always vaugely complain about pacing without explaining yourself it always works /hj#okay one big problem i have is with the whole trope of video game adaptations always being like:#''put video game character in real world!'' or ''put real person in video game world!''#like I DONT CARE ABOUT THE REAL WORLD i'm here for the fictional stuff??#why tf do they think they always have to involve irl stuff i don't get it?? 😭#i wanna see sonic's world goddamit#this is why i prefer the comics smh#my enjoyment of the movies are completely in spite of their real world setting#i also don't see the point in a live action sonic movie other than the fact that live action makes more money than animation#sonic is such an extremely cartoony character he belongs in animation it's his natural habitat#oh god this became long af#i didn't wanna complain a bunch in the main post so it all ended up here lmaooo#tizel talk#sonic movie#sonic movie 3#sonic movie 3 spoilers#sonic movie spoilers#sonic the hedgehog

Saw a comic today that was like "a GOOD union trusts its membership to always act in their own best interest and to always fight capitalism, unlike those bootlicking liberal unions who believe in things like "reform" and "politics"
I can't even trust my union's membership to show up to work sober, man. Half of them are currently salivating over the concept of the supreme court gutting OSHA. I don't think they're going to go for a revolutionary overthrow of capitalism and I don't think I'd trust them with it if they did
#the comic clarified that liberal unions 'prioritize lobbying too much'#but that fighting unions 'fight hard for better wages and conditions'#so . . . what are the liberal unions lobbying for do you think. why do you think lobbying for governmental protection of all workers' right#is less important than a strike action that lets you negotiate a single contract in a single industry. what is this dichotomy#the other aspect of the 'fighting' union was 'believes in the transformative power of the working class'#like. okay. i'm believing really hard. so did you have any action to back that up or would that be too liberal for you#us politics

I just so happened to have this shitty comic drawn because I'm currently insane over these two specifically
featuring my other bastard @the-bloodline-embrace
#identity v#aesop carl#identity v embalmer#identity v ask blog#victor grantz#identity v postman#unconcerned comic#did i do this comic to procrastinate my other comic? yes#i was looking for references for exorcist's outfit cos thats what bitch edgelord wears n was going through my exorcist comics#i missed those. i peaked with those. pls go n read them if u havent especially the 2nd one its on my pinned. shameless self promo /shot#anyway i was like Hey i kinda miss doing action scenes even though theyre hard n i have no idea what im doing#n then i wondered what if the bastard on this blog met the bastard on my other blog. n this happened. within a day#i was possessed by the two bastards to draw this at gunpoint /j#to be fair i was also like Since this is a comic done Purely for Fun it can be as shitty as it will be#so my brush is thicc n my words are handwritten n i removed a whole lot of details. pls excuse the quality#ive been thinking so much about exorcist n embrace. especially embrace. i would draw him more but. god that headpiece#anyway embrace is also a freak but hes my freak that i can throw at exorcist. lore wise aka according to the bullshit abilities#i gave to both embrace n bitch. bitch would win. because hes death personified. embrace is just some guy with spears speed n cosplay powers#i will not elaborate#anyway we are not gonna talk about how gay this became. i didnt do this they just started flirting in the middle of fighting its not my fau#“stop losing sight of me” is probably the gayest line ive written so far n ofc its fucking bitch edgelord that says it. stabs him with a pi#i am going insane over these two i think it shows#anyway im going to disappear for a bit unless theres something in the inbox. or i finish the other comic i was supposed to be working on

Gooooood lordy. Law in a jacket like that is the thing I need to die happy especially in your style. Is this for an upcoming comic or an old one? Or is this just some practice that you decided to bless us with?
I'm sitting here like why have I waited so long to embrace his feather motif 😭😭 it's for an upcoming comic!! It's for the forgetful series and ngl this section exploded from a 6 page draft to 13 pages 🙈🙈 but alsoooo I very much wanna just do a full color draw of this fit but also I gotta get back to life after but also (there are so many things I wanna draw)
#the forgetful series has exploded in its entirety tbh#since it started posting ive added like 35 pages and will be adding at least 10 more before im done#life after is side eyeing me#also theres one more part of this series i gotta do typesetting on an old strip for#i gotta do 20 more pages of life after to do a book print#but also also cuz apparently im using this as an excuse to tag rant#srry mannominon#the part that this law is in is the sequence i think ive pushed myself the most as a comic artist!!#ive been making silly little comics since i was a kid but not in earnest like this#the action in life after has been tough territory but the way math is hard#this sequence was hard the way like poetry is hard#and making sure it all made sense#shout out to killy n alana for making it Better#ok im done srry srry i dont shut up#my asks

how do i make a poll on here. anyway, if i made a google doc dossier for the important people in constantine's life (astra, chas, his sister, his niece) + his main set of superfriends/enemies (swamp thing, phantom stranger, first of the fallen, nergal), would that be something people find useful for interactions or would it just be my completionist ass indulging myself?
#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS.#i feel like having that info on hand might help to contextualize some of his actions/behaviors#especially in how he & his backstory differentiate from his portrayal in the nbc and lot shows#and also give detail for anyone who wants to do something pre-established or know of him beforehand#but i also just. love to talk about the comics shdjk so it's hard to say if it'd be actually helpful to anyone or just window dressing#me? overcomplicating my blogs? it's more likely than you think

The funny thing about jason is that his logic is often extremely cop-like but he thinks he's exempt from thinking critically about his decisionmaking just because his identity is so far from a police officer. He's the fucking definition of "I could do it better" and all his good intentions rot immediately after he takes action. And I'm sure if you told him this he'd blow your brains out immediately.
#a tragedy of a character#how much reprehensible action can you take before you lose yourself#I think he dabbles in acknowledging how fucked up he is as a way to neutralize his intentions#but not enough that's for sure#what's so heartbreaking about jason is that he could probably be a pretty functional socio/psychopath (don't come for#me for using those words using the disorder abbreviations is probably worse here)#but he refuses to accept how broken of a person he is#the road from ''everything's fucked anyways idc'' to ''it really isn't doing me any favors to act on these urges even if#the feelings are valid''#is long and hard#but there is no road in the other direction#self justification only turns you into even more of a dangerous person#feeling no remorse for murder is still about 3 steps better than thinking murder is only good when you do it#I like to explore the range of this obv and he's much more relatable with just plain antisocial traits#but he is very much an implosion of a person and I wouldn't hesitate to call him genuinely psychotic in many instances#loooong tags again my b#jason todd#dc comics#meta#???#idk how to file this

That's exactly the point of comparison I was getting at. I'm so glad you expanded on it! There is SO much to Chew On with Mine and Kiryu--they were the subject of one of my first analyses (specifically in that I think there is more nuance to his view of Kiryu than jealousy, and even when isolating it down to the jealousy, there's more nuance to what he's jealous of than what many think). But you know, that was on Twitter in 2019, and it'd be fun to revisit without the character limit holding me back and with added context from what RGGO has put out since then.
AND... SPEAKING OF JO'S UPBRINGING... good lord the comic you posted Destroyed Me for what it is. The way he doesn't really know what to do (particularly because if he was crying that hard at that age, non-zero chance his father was the one who made him cry)... his lack of human experience... compounded with probably not knowing what's appropriate when it comes to interacting with "someone else's kid"... AND ALSO MASATO BEING TOO YOUNG FOR ANYTHING LESS THAN BEING COMFORTED SUCCESSFULLY TO MATTER... ouuughghghgh
i'd absolutely LOVE to read a revised version of what you have to say regarding mine and kiryu ! though i might have an idea on what you mean when expanding on the depths of mine's jealousy, i'd definitely be down to see exactly what you have to say and more! ♪(´▽`)
OH AND THANK YOU im glad you got 1000% what i was putting down with that one (❁´◡`❁) ! its a short and simple thing, but it does encapsulate the things that make me Incredibly Emo.. (´▽` ;;;;;)
#snap chats#when it comes to analysis and Proper Review im only really good at picking up notes and putting them together#im not too good at looking deeper into things so id like to see what else you've got in mind when it comes to mine and kiryu !#BUT YEAH happy fathers day.... oops... i made it sad.....#i really cant say anything else cause you really have said everything i had in mind when drawing that and that fact makes me so happy#im glad you just Got It yk (❁´◡`❁) its hard to want to convey things without words sometimes so when it IS picked up on... Epic....#jo's inability to be there for his son.. not just cause Yk. but also because personally he doesnt even know how#what with himself not being shown any love growing up: he KNOWS he should do something but what would be appropriate and effective ?#how evil.... everytime i make jo suffer the consequences of his actions i feel like that meme of the lil feller sitting cutely all :)) ☠️☠️#BUT speaking of words i am working on a small fic for jo and masato... sort of an apology for that comic LMAO#it's just gonna be a silly thing complete with How To Be A Fatherisms i promise it wont be as sad :) i hope.

reading Claremont X-Men (finally) and don't get me wrong it's fine and well-written or whatever but all the interesting shit starts at like issue 130 (with the Claremont run starting on issue 94) and half of it is just boring as hell now how do I keep reading
#yael's x men ramblings#this is the first run from the 70s i'm actually reading#i've read stuff before and after but never in that decade#in terms of older comics i've only read 80s runs and fucking. 40s-60s runs (ww and action comics)#never got to the 70s#anyway i know the context is important but where is kitty prydeeeee#i've got 22 fucking issues until her first appearance how do i survive#there are a few interesting things rn like the summers family drama with corsair and the phoenix stuff and lilandra (<3)#but it's just annoying to read because i'm mainly invested in the women and they don't get enough to do imo#or maybe there's no specific spotlight on any character other than charles so it's hard to be invested#anyway i'll try to keep reading#if it gets too annoying i'll zigzag between it and new mutants maybe

We're in a mood for moodboards so have our PREVIOUS fronting team that was comprised of Caliban, Judeau, Grael (he had a very strong presence in the system back in the day), Jasper (an alter from Chris' subsystem), Black Reaper (an alter from Kaneki's subsystem), Kovacs (me), May, Krauser (another alter from Chris' subsystem.... They used to switch more often back then), and Griffith (OG Griffith, not one of his many AUs). All of these alters took a billion steps back after the whole substance abuse crisis that was mixed into the drama from the breakup with our partner system IRL, nowadays it's mostly the Baldur's Gate folks running the show and everyone who used to be active fronters BEFORE the drug crisis happened kind of just hid themselves away, claiming that they aren't in possession of enough mental energy to help out with what's currently been happening on Main. I can't say I blame them honestly. Our life is incredibly stressful and we ARE falling apart at the seams so the exhausted veterans made way for the still-somewhat-put-together newbies to handle our daily life in their stead. I would like to say that we've been in recovery this whole time but some wounds take a LOT of time to heal which makes me happy that we found a new therapist today and that she agreed to help us sort through the psychological and emotional salad we've been carrying with us this whole time without knowing how to even BEGIN to unravel it.
– Kovacs
#kovacs speaks#guts should've been on this list as well but judeau fronted more often so we chose judeau in the end#but just know that guts is a close second to judeau he tanked a lot of stress back in the day#caliban is our one man crisis team#judeau is a soother#grael is a general helper who normally used to front when we had long to-do lists to go through he was our go-getter#jasper was comic relief for whenever shit got too stressful#reaper was trauma-related#kovacs was and still is a protector who will handle high-stress situations like it's nothing#may was also comic relief but make it introspective#she helped us process our feelings and shit#krauser was also trauma-related but also work-oriented he helped us go through our to-do lists without breaking a sweat#ran errands like a champ#and griffith was THE most related to trauma and represented a lot of internalized shit we needed to work through#griffith was often used as a scapegoat for whenever shit went wrong within the system#just a straight up punching bag because we wanted to have someone we could blame for a bunch of fucked up shit#we started treating him better over time but the fact he's directly linked to femto made it hard to separate femto's actions from griffith'#at times#griffith is caliban's wifey so caliban would bark at us for trying to use griffith as a scapegoat most times but sometimes#you know#sometimes#sometimes we just couldn't help it and we felt like we needed someone to blame for our shortcomings as a system and griffith was it#we're still learning how to lay off griffith but it's just so easy to hate him considering his canon actions in his source#he didn't hurt anyone as an alter but his canon is enough to make us point our fingers at him and accuse him of being a monster#charlotte is one of our biggest griffith activists though and she's trying her hardest to make us stop bullying him#with varying levels of success#anyway long story short griffith is a loaded subject#alter lore#system lore#personal

y. youre kidding me
#read ll 25#i liked three things in technicality but um. hated their presentation completely and entirely#i ripped this to shreds elsewhere um. to ppl who do not know abt this comic#bc ive never seen ppl complain abt the things i did not like in this comic. at all#anyways im surprised i fucking despised the double-ending. usually i like exploration of variation. but this felt truly sinister#felt like it REALLY was trying to give bad vs good ending which! i hate!#especially when characters becoming more disabled vs not is seen as a choice to choose between as a reader#ESPECIALLY WHEN THE WRITING WORKED SO HARD TO PRESENT ITSELF AS HATING THE CONCEPT OF MORAL ABSOLUTISM AND THE IDEA PEOPLE CAN BE#QUANTIFIED AS 'GOOD' OR 'BAD'#haha noooo dont rejoin society. youll be abused by corrupt systems and become more disabled and have to face consequences for your#actions and revert to your worst self lol.#just join the eternal fratboy ship where nobody(else) dies and we can all take care of each other mentally. like a cult#like ok yeah the ship is supposed to be like a new home ok yeah. but youre all fratboys. in a big ship.#'turns out postwar society SUUCKS im getting a van lets go solve a random mystery pls just get me off this planet' to#'i was right postwar society sucks im staying in the van. guys just stay in the van with me. forever btw'#shouldve made a sequel series. the quest to find at least 1 good therapist#like srry yes its very ro/dimus ending but um. not so great as a story conclusion imo#LOVE the series LOVE most of the little arcs. the endings though? hollow. devoid of meaning#i personally think brai/nstorm shouldve gotten that physical disability like. right around elegant chaos. and kept it.#no 'you reap what you sow' no 'optional bad end' fuck you its cool that he has an assist i love it so much#altho tbh i guess giving him that right after EC would feel very 'reap what you sow' still....... maybe in the peak of EC then? idk#hell. all the way back to getting shot in the chest. or maybe the dark cybertron situation even. when they revealed hes technically unwell#waaaaaghhhhhh.#dummy posts

I think one of the biggest tragedies of Laios & Falin and their relationship is how much his actions impact her life. But like. Specifically how much they WOULDN’T impact her life as much if they weren’t both stuck in such a shitty abusive situation.
This part of the Falin-tries-makeup daydream hour comic is what got me thinking about it again because truly it just... it seems like such a like an offhand comment that I'm sure Laios didn't mean to be cruel or anything. That's just like. A little kid not thinking about what they are saying. ESPECIALLY when the kid in question is Laios.
But man they depended on each other SO much as kids. Too much. It really feels like they didn't have any other source of positive reinforcement, or anyone else to share themselves with. So of course an offhand comment like that has a huge impact on Falin.
Or this little bit from one of the flashbacks:
This tears me apart. Do you think it tears him apart to think about? I think it does. I think Laios holds every small failure to care for Falin against himself.
And then there's the Bigger stuff. The way that him coping with his own trauma ended up impacting her.
Like his interest in monsters. Like him going to find a ghost, and accidentally revealing Falin's magic to the whole village in the process.
Like him needing to leave. And leaving her behind.
He shaped her life so much, and he carries so much guilt for it. And again, there should have been other people there to help. The same things that made Laios need to leave home are the things that made his leaving so hard on Falin. She ate alone after that. She shouldn't have had to eat alone just because Laios wasn't there.
She was 9 when he left for school, and he was 11.
Nine. And Laios feels like he failed her because he didn't stand by her through this better. As an eleven year old.
Both of these kids deserved so much better from the world.
#dunmeshi analysis#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#falin touden#laios touden#dungeon meshi spoilers#AND this isn't even getting into her leaving the academy & how much it seems like that was directly tied to how poorly he was doing#there's a comic in the adventurer's bible where marcille is like 'yeah she had a job lined up and everything'#and like. do you think he feels bad for that too#like he wrecked her life by leaving#and wrecked her life by showing up#what do you even do at that point. if you feel like a failed protector when you are away & and a burden when you return#unable to make yourself accept. unable to make yourself resist#Laios strongest moment is when he lets himself accept that. the contradiction of his life & his relationship with Falin#that he has to kill her to save her#as a small note this came out a little more focused on Laios' POV with this stuff but Falin's experience of it is v important to me too#didn't mean to sideline her but her feelings about stuff are more speculative and probably need a post of their own
