#i should draw more spider-man and do more studies

[sodaft-potato]

hi there!! i do hope you don't mind me asking, but i positively adore these spider-man sketches of yours (the anatomy in particular, you're really good with it in all of your art!) and i wanted to know; how did you go about learning how to draw figures like these, let alone in such striking poses?

that aside, please keep up the wonderful work with your art! both your sonic stuff and original art stands out to me as some of the most gorgeous i've seen!

Thank you for the ask! I'm so glad you like my Spider-Man drawings :> every once in a while I have to give anatomy a try and he's not a bad subject for it.

Frankly I don't have one good source of inspiration for my more anatomically complex art. The best I can offer for major study grounds are a lot of live-action television, many hours of staring at pretty paintings, and having to figure out how body language works due to my social anxiety and autism. I also don't think I'm very good with anatomy, but I attempt to conjure what I've observed from the recesses of my brain ;v; . In the past I've tried sketching portraits and doing proper studies using movie screenshots to learn about the functions of space. I love doing it, and these sorts of experiments certainly don't hurt my ability to draw anatomy and backgrounds.

Also yeah Dune as a series kind of changed the game ncbvbnvxbnc

Typically I like to draw poses that don't make 100% sense, but they look cool and that's enough for me. If they're fluid and make my brain happy, then I draw them.

I'm glad you like my art so much! My Sonic art has been really satisfying to draw lately, so I'm especially grateful that you appreciate it.

Thanks for the ask!

Hi, hello, I’m new to your blog. I’ve made myself at home. Lovely carpet.

Can I please know more about your spider Robbie pie? Can’t seem to find the silverware.

but of course, kind anon

Spider Robbie is an au in which Robbie Robertson takes up the spider mantle after the death of the one before him. He is the third, following Ben Urich and, most notably, Peter Parker.

This au is very much canon divergence from Eyes Without a Face, where Peter makes it in time to save Robbie from his original fate but dies in the process. Peter is shot while rushing Robbie and the others out. In his panic and elation at finding Robbie physically unharmed, Peter outs himself as the Spider Man to his best friend. Robbie stays with him as he bleeds out and resolves to continue to hide Peter's identity.

Peter is buried and remains that way for... an undetermined amount of time.

Robbie is left with a mask, a jacket, and the question of just who was this other half of his friend. As he learns more of who this... Spider Man was, he gets more and more involved in the spider's cases and conflicts. Robbie gets more sure of his own abilities and makes a bit of a name for the Spider Man within his own community, though the people of Harlem are largely unaware that the appearances of a masked vigilante match the interests of one Robbie Robertson.

It is to be noted that none of these aforementioned abilities are spider-god-induced powers like Peter's. Robbie, especially at the beginning of his spidering career, leans more into Urich's role than Parker's. To me, Robbie has been passionate about the press and journalism in a way that Peter never was. For Pete, his job as a photographer and reporter was a job he took until he could get into college and study science. Robbie has a way with words and communication that Peter frankly lacks. Of course, that isn't to say that Robbie won't be kicking ass, because he will. It will just take him a bit of time to get some of those skills as he's, well, a normal guy. Not everyone can get their biology scrambled like Pete.

And just because Robbie hasn't been scrambled doesn't mean he's completely separate from all things supernatural either!

I think the marvel noir universe is at its best when there's a magical, supernatural undercurrent. This concept isn't super prevalent in the actual comics, but HoplesslyLost on ao3 has done some really cool world building with it.

I think in Robbie's case, where he would be the narrator, "magical realism" would be an interesting avenue to take it. I use this term in particular because I most closely relate it to Toni Morrison in my head, when I first learned about it through her work in high school. For Morrison, the concept was inseparable to blackness and I think for Robbie, where his blackness is so central to his character and his motivations, drawing on that could be more of a service to his character. It feels better to do that than ignore how incredibly racialized his society and story is. It will make his relationship with the spider god, Peter (who I will get to very very shortly), his community, and his own mythos as The Spider Man really interesting and complex.

So it's been established that Robbie doesn't have spider powers. And we all know that Peter did-- or should I say does. One of the spider god's abilities is to bring Peter back to life. She does this in the comics, but not in any of the runs from 2008-2010 (the runs that make up this au). When Peter dies on Ellis Island, he does not think he is coming back from that. Waking up again is a surprise.

Here's where I think the au really takes a left turn. Do I think the Spider God is purely evil and spiteful and has it out for Pete? No, not really. Will I be ramping said traits up to 11 for the au? Yeah, I guess I might. This is because I love a little bit of horror and the came back wrong trope. I will hopefully be fleshing the spider god out in the near future, but I really haven't given her the many hours of thought I have the other characters. For that I'm sorry spider god </3

Peter digs himself out of his grave, more spider than he ever has been. For much of his new, waking life he is more animalistic than not. There is clearly something wrong with him; his joints are too flexible and loose, he's got some eye-shine going on, his skin is pale and his veins are starkly dark beneath it. He's possessed. Someone is puppeteering him, someone who knows a lot-- almost everything about him, but it's clear that the someone isn't him.

And Peter--- the body, it can't be Peter. At least, that's what Robbie thinks when the figure catches his eye the first time. Because Peter is dead and buried, and he has been dead and buried for weeks.

Hi I'm the, ' Peter Parker (Spiderman) x fluffy spider mutant reader? ' anon.

I saw in your reblog that you were up for doing my request, so I'm sending it now, so I dont forget.

Basically, the reader is a fluffy spider mutant, having 2 sets of arms. He absolutely loves smothering Peter with love in a hug. When Peter gets back from his college classes or a patrol.

A/n: yayyy you found me good job anon!! I’m glad I could take over writing this request so hope you enjoy! Kinda short I'm sorry-

This is mostly based on TASM/2012!Peter but it can be read as any other Peter as well!

Love and Affection

Peter Parker (Spider-Man) x male!spider-mutant!reader

( summary: after your boyfriend comes home stressed from his college classes you decide to give him some much needed loving )

warnings?: mentions of multiple limbs, spider noises and references to spiders! Also teeth rotting fluff

!-!more under the cut!-!

Peter sighed as he walked up the stairs to his apartment. He was up all last night saving New York and barely got to rest before he was thrusted into his studies. At least he can rest for a while before going out on his patrols. A small smile found it's way to his face as he dug through his pocket for his keys, he couldn't wait to see you, to hear your happy clicks in his ears as you wrap each of your 6 arms around him. Maybe he can convince you to carry him around so that he doesn't have to walk anymore.

With a click, the door was unlocked and Peter eagerly went inside. Just as he thought, a couple of quick click-like sounds were heard from his bedroom, which he shared with his loving boyfriend. He sat his bags down and began taking off his jacket and shoes, leaning down to untie them.

He sensed you before he saw you but still, he acted surprised when he leaned back up and felt your arms around his waist, then his chest, the other set was used to turn him around in your arms. “Welcome home~” you nuzzled into his neck, leaving soft kisses here and there, making him giggle as your fluff tickled his skin. He practically melted at the feeling, a sigh of content leaving his mouth as his whole body relaxed. “I missed you.” You heard him practically whisper in your ear and you chuckled. “I missed you too love.” Your arms rubbed across his back, up and down in such a comforting way he could almost cry. The past few days have been stressful and the way he clung to you showed that. “Are you ok Petey?” He shook his head and you hummed. “Tired?” He nodded and you smiled, glad it was something you could help with.

"Come on then my love, it's cuddle time!" You effortlessly picked him up, carrying him to your shared bedroom while he laughed at your enthusiasm. Placing him down on the bed, you undressed him and made sure he was comfortable before cuddling up beside him, pulling the covers over the both of you. Your arms rubbed his back, another set playing with his hair, effectively drawing a yawn from his tired form. "Maybe you should take a break from patrols for a while sweetheart." You whispered and he mumbled something that you couldn't quite make out, his eyes closed as he seemed right on the edge of falling asleep. "I can watch over New York for you while you rest." Peter only gripped you tighter at that statement and you guessed he didn't want you to leave him right now. Moving impossibly closer, Peter placed his hands on your chest, leaning in to place a tired kiss to your lips. It was short, but the little amount of affection had made you beam, a quick purr-like sound erupting from your throat as you nuzzled into him. With your bodies pressed together, with your fluff warming him along with the blankets, you both drifted off into a peaceful slumber by each other side.

Shoplifting Leads to Romance

Rohan Kishibe x artist!reader

Fluff, hurt/comfort

Summary: Rohan has trouble making sense of how he feels about you, and ends up upsetting you in the process. Don't worry though, he's trying his best. Basically Rohan makes you sad then realizes he was an asshole.

It’s true that Rohan Kishibe is a skilled manga artist. His artistic prowess is something he’s gifted with and has honed to near perfection. Something he’s not so great with though, is people.

As an artist yourself, you've always admired Rohan’s talent. His work was an inspiration to you, so how amazing was it that you were now acquainted with him, and also receiving an internship?

After approaching the eccentric man, he agreed to take you in as an intern. He only did so because you helped him out when he was accused of shoplifting at the Kame-Yu department store that one time. Since you worked there, you saw who the real culprit was, and vouched for Rohan’s innocence on the matter.

Rohan appreciated the fact that you gave him his space and didn’t demand anything of him, even after recognizing who he was. He also appreciated the compliments you gave him on his work. The level of detail you went into intrigued him, such as noting the improvement of his art style over the years, or the technique he uses to study a spider's anatomy.

The two of you soon became more than mere acquaintances, with you coming over often to admire his process. Rohan actually enjoyed the time you spent for a while, until it began to gnaw at his mind. Lately, he found himself getting too distracted by you. He was thinking too much about you, even when you were gone. He found the whole thing to be rather infuriating.

Rohan surveyed you from across the desk, eyes intent on watching you sketch. He should be looking down at your paper, but instead he found himself unable to look away from your face.

You momentarily glanced up at him, and that alone was enough to drive him insane. He quickly tried to cover up the fact he had been staring at you. "Quit looking at me and focus on the paper," he scolded, as if he hadn’t been doing the exact same thing. As long as you were unaware of that though, it didn’t matter.

Returning your eyes to the paper, you continued the sketch without a word. Rohan on the other hand, couldn’t seem to shut up. "Now Y/n, you must be quicker with the sketch. Don't spend too much time on it. You still haven't managed to cut down the sketch time since the last attempt, don’t forget that."

"Sorry Rohan sensei, I'm really trying to-"

"Well you're not trying hard enough!" He suddenly snapped. The pencil in your hand slowly came to a stop. Looking down at the figure on the paper, you realized you were pressing down so hard with the tip of your pencil that it had made a small perforation on the eye of the drawing.

You lifted the pencil to brush off bits of eraser. "Hey, my wrist is starting to hurt a bit. Maybe we should take a break, and I could just watch you for now?" You suggested, and awaited his response.

You, watch him? With you watching him, he'd fumble over his pen. He would make a mistake somewhere from being too distracted by your presence, he knew it. He could feel the heat on his cheeks begin to radiate just at the thought of it. Knowing your eyes would be on him, his mind would wander off to nothing but the thought of what your lips might feel like against his. No, this simply could not continue. He couldn’t allow himself to further slip into this predicament.

“No, that isn’t what you’re here to do right now. Now take your pencil and paper back up, and start again,” Rohan ordered, resetting the timer on his desk.

You rubbed at your wrist, trying your best to brush off any soreness in your arm. The grooves of the pencil were practically engraved into your palm by now as you started up again when Rohan exclaimed, “Begin!”

You went as fast as you could to get the basic shapes down, and then the details. It was coming along well enough, and you thought maybe this time you’d actually get to-

The sound of a timer went off, and Rohan slammed his hand down onto the table. “Time’s up! Did you finish?”

You scrambled to keep the papers from falling. “No, I-”

“Then I don’t wanna see it!” With that, Rohan reached over to take the sheet of paper from your grasp, ripping it to shreds. That wasn't something you expected, so you weren’t sure how to react as the pieces of paper sailed down to the surface of the desk. You knew he could be intense, but was this really necessary?

Rohan crossed his arms. “Y/n, you are here to improve your art skills. You're nothing but an amateur, and at this rate you'll never be on my level if you keep slacking off. If you’re just going to waste my time, I suggest you take your things and leave.”

Hearing this out of nowhere confused you even more. If ripping your paper wasn’t enough, his words made your guts drop to the floor. Were you really doing that badly? Perhaps Rohan just wanted to be left alone. You thought he had been enjoying the time you spent together, but you were beginning to doubt that now. Then again, he never asked for you to come by. It was you that insisted, thinking he'd be fine with it. Turns out that wasn't that case.

You stood from your seat, grabbing your bag as well. Your throat suddenly felt dry, but you still managed to say something. "Okay then. Goodbye for now, Rohan Kishibe." You didn't even mean for the words to come out so cold and bitter, but they did. Rohan noticed this too, and he didn't know how to feel about it as he watched you walk out the door.

Well, it had to be for the better that you left, right? No use in staying if you weren’t cut out for it.

Looking down at the scraps of torn paper, Rohan thought perhaps he went a bit overboard. Gathering each piece, he assorted them together like a puzzle. Once each piece was in the right place, he didn’t expect to see his own face looking back at him. Well, it wasn’t completely realistic nor intact, but it was very much meant to be him. Was this why you kept looking at him, for artistic reference?

Rohan rested a hand against his chin as his eyes traveled across the image. “Hmm, this is actually quite good…” Observing the drawing, the guilt hit him like a big freight train. If that Tamami fellow was around, he’s sure that lock stand of his would be very effective on him right about now.

Well, it doesn't matter now. The important thing is that Rohan could finally resume his work, unbothered at last. Placing his pen down on the paper, he began his usual process. As the drawing progressed however, he noticed the image on the paper was starting to look a lot like you. He brushed the thought aside. No, it just happened to look like you. He continued to rapidly scribble across the paper, and when he was finally finished, the results horrified him.

Who was he kidding, it was you. Down to nearly every last detail, it was you. Any mole on your skin, any curve of your face, any direction of the way your hair swept, it was all you. Well, there was absolutely no denying it now. Rohan had fallen madly in love with you. “Great, just what I need…” he grumbled out.

Groaning in frustration, he set his pen down and turned back to your torn up drawing. He needed a break. He gathered the pieces of paper into a neat pile before leaving the room.

After that day, he didn’t see you for a while. He called you a few times, but you didn't answer. It had only been a couple of days, but still. He never even managed to catch sight of you around Morioh by chance. Despite that, he’s sure he’d get to see you today; for today you have a shift at Kame-Yu department store.

Walking into the vast space, he navigated the aisles until he caught sight of you. There you were, stocking items onto the shelves. Rohan clutched his bag and took a deep breath before approaching you. “Hello, Y/n. It’s uh, been a while.” He internally cursed himself for being so nervous in front of you.

The sound of his voice startled you a bit. You weren’t expecting Rohan to be here. Regardless of his presence, you resumed to pile items onto the shelves. “Hello Rohan. Yes, it has been a while,” was all you said. There was no warm smile like you usually gave him whenever you greeted him, nor a nod of recognition. Heck, you barely even looked at him, much to Rohan’s despair.

The main reason you were so upset over it was because Rohan’s opinion meant so much to you. You wanted his validation, his approval. Getting the exact opposite wasn’t exactly the motivation you were looking for. If anything, it made you want to take a break from art altogether. You knew it was stupid to care so much about what he thinks, but that’s romance for you. Utterly stupid.

Seeing as you made no further attempt to interact with him, Rohan struggled with what he should say next. “So…how’s that painting coming along?”

You knew the painting he spoke of. You had shown it to him about a week ago, before the last time you spoke. That same painting remained untouched on its easel, with not a single stroke of paint added onto it since then. “I haven’t really worked on it,” you responded, your attention still not fully on him.

“Why not?” Rohan knew why, but still asked nonetheless.

“I guess I kinda lost my motivation.” At last, you turned to properly face him. This actually made it all the worse for Rohan, because your dull expression pained him. “I am just an amateur who’ll never be on your level after all.”

The words he spoke to you days before flooded over him like a tsunami. He was a prisoner to his guilt, and he needed you to set him free. In order to gain this freedom though, he’d have to do something he rarely ever did.

“Y/n, I think some apologies are in order. My actions and what I said the other day...It was too harsh. I honestly do think you’re a talented artist. I just said all that because I wanted you to leave. You weren’t the one getting distracted, I was. All because you couldn’t leave my mind…and I just wanted that irritating feeling to go away!” he spoke the last bit in a frustrating tone.

Your unmoving face told him you were confused, so he elaborated. “But now I see that what I was feeling was attraction, and I should just accept it rather than push it away even if it bugs me.”

Although his explanation helped a bit, you were still unsure of what he was getting at. “What?” You questioned stupidly.

“Damnit Y/n, I like you!” He finally admitted, and it was then he took note of just how fast his heart was racing. If this was love, he detested the feeling. Why did it have to be so damn nerve-wracking? Rohan tried his best to disregard all of this. The only thing that mattered now was your response.

“Oh. Really? Well…I like you too,” your voice snapped him out of his worry.

Rohan was in a state of disbelief at first. “You do? Well, of course you do!” Rohan played off his relief with a shaky laugh and smirk. His smirk soon faded though, remembering he still had something to be sorry for. “And again, I apologize for my behavior. Your drawing, I truly am flattered by it. You have commendable talent. It’s very good.”

“Was very good,” you corrected, crossing your arms to emphasize you were still upset, regardless of the feelings you admitted for each other. At this, Rohan shuffled around in his bag, pulling something out and holding it up for you to see. You were a bit surprised to see it was the drawing you thought was ruined. It looked as good as new, no tape or glue anywhere in sight.

“But how…Is that really the one I made?” you asked, reaching out to take it from him.

“Yes, it is. I asked that punk Josuke to fix it with his stand.” Rohan very much disliked dealing with that boy, but he did it for you. He had to. “I hope you do forgive me, Y/n.”

You gave him a small smile in return. “I’m glad you apologized. I thought maybe I was just being too sensitive about the issue...” You mentally scolded yourself for not handling Rohan’s criticism well that day. The man was just doing his job after all, and you should’ve known what you’d be getting into when seeking his guidance.

Rohan looked away in shame upon recalling his behavior that day. He then walked over closer to you, clearing his throat. “No, you had every right to be upset. Even if it was criticism, there are better ways I could’ve handled it. So don’t go thinking you had any fault in the matter, understood?" He narrowed his eyes down at you.

"Yeah," you smiled, now relieved. His emerald eyes made you weak for a moment, but you felt more at ease now that everything was out and dealt with in the open.

In a similar way, Rohan felt his eyes soften when you looked at him the way you did. He wanted to experience more of that.

"If you’d like to come by my studio after your shift today, I’d gladly welcome you," he offered.

“Well then I gladly accept your invitation.” With that, you grabbed ahold of his collar to pull him down for a kiss. Rohan barely had any time to process it. All he knew was that he felt you put an arm around his waist, and that he finally got to know what your lips felt like against his. It was you who opened the door to this heavenly feeling, and it was wonderful.

Pulling away, you couldn’t stop grinning at the dumbstruck expression on the manga artist��s face. You felt like getting a pencil and paper out right then and there to capture the moment forever. Scratch that, pencil wouldn’t be enough, you’d need rouge watercolor to capture the color on his cheeks. Even when Rohan tried to compose himself and clear his throat, the heat on his face didn’t go away.

Rolling up the sheet of paper in your hand, you lightly hit Rohan on the head with it. “You can keep this at your place for now. I can’t exactly take it with me right now during work hours. But careful, don’t rip it again, or I’ll be sure to rip out your vital organs in return,” you joked. The fact that you threatened him with the sweetest smile made it all the more intimidating.

“Trust me, that won’t be a problem," Rohan said with a nervous laugh. "Well, I suppose I’ll be seeing you later. Until then, Y/n.” He quickly walked away, and you couldn’t help but let out a chuckle before resuming your work.

As he exited the store, Rohan felt like screaming out to the heavens. Once he was far enough away from people, he let out an almost maniacal laugh as he slumped against a wall. Wow, that really happened! He thought he'd only ever get to kiss you in his fantasies, or if he commanded you to do so with Heaven’s Door. But it did happen, and he was looking forward to doing it again and again.

After his little fit of giddy laughter, Rohan noticed a small box falling out of his bag. Picking it up, he realized it was a box of tea assortments, one of his favorites in fact. Where did that come from? The price tag on it told him it was from the department store. He didn’t even pay for it though, so how did-

Oh. Rohan recalled that you were stocking tea boxes onto the shelves. You must’ve sneaked a box into his bag when you were kissing him. The irony of it all made him smile. The great Rohan Kishibe would be wrongfully accused of shoplifting, yet again. One thing he did steal from that place though, was your heart.

Realizing how cheesy that line was, Rohan nearly threw up on his way home.

i’ve always admired how you draw, what have you studied to get to this point? i tend to think way too much when i draw which has always been my downfall with it over the years

i get questions like this a lot and i never really know how to answer them. i guess i just look at pictures and drawings of things i like and try and replicate it with my own ideas. i think i also have your problem, where i think too much when i draw. something that frustrates me with my art in particular is inconsistency and lack of skill. so, i always have these really awesome drawing ideas that i feel like match my skill, but when i try and draw it, i can't get the anatomy or the perspective down. i have problems with consistency in my style as well, which isn't that bad. i think i view that last bit more as improvement and being able to draw whatever you want however you want is nice, but in terms of being able to do the first thing with an inconsistent style, it just drags you back. cause you have to learn anatomy two different ways. sometimes i'll read a comic or come across a piece of art i really like and go "man, i should learn how to incorporate this into my own work!" specifically with noses, for me. for a good year i abandoned drawing them because of a style change, and then i read a spider-man comic and got pissed i didn't have noses in my own style. so, i dunno. another thing i'm really sensitive about is my coloring and rendering skills, something i feel like i've very recently learned how to do. the way i draw relies on me winging it and is based on the fact that i've been practicing for years. so, i dunno haha.

i wish us both luck in our drawing ventures. take it easy on yourself, even artists you look up to don't have it figured all out yet.

blog guide !!

requests are closed, but feel free to send them in regardless. just expect them to be answered a little later !

this is (for now) an across the spiderverse blog !

please allow me up to a week to write up your asks

characters i write for :

Miguel O’hara

Miles Morales

Miles 42

Hobie (let’s go brit rep)

Pavitr Prabhakar

The Spot

Peter B. Parker

Spider-Noir

general info :

i cannot stress this enough, i exclusively write everything but fem reader, y’all got enough .

that being said, feel free to request anything else at all- when it’s not specified i will just assume gender neutral for the sake of inclusion

trans readers, non-binary, everything in between and all about is completely valid here and i’m more than willing to write about it <3

i do have a health condition that can catch me some days, so there may be times where i’m inactive but it should never be for long periods of time

feel free to get oddly specific with requests ! the more i can work with, the better

but i also don’t mind if they’re just general requests that don’t require a lot of detail

i will NOT write explicit NSFW, i draw the line at clothes being removed unless it has something to do with a prompt (e.g. seeing top surgery scars for the first time), some of these characters ages are not specified yet and i don’t feel comfortable potentially writing NSFW for minors. that is a crime.

there will be some requests i won’t obviously be able to complete for a number of reasons, please do not spam me if this is the case. if i’m willing to fulfil a request i will try my best to communicate with you if needed :]

i have the right to deny requests.

i do wanna say that i am a white guy so i can’t write from first hand experience, but if you request something that includes diversity like a specific race or cultural aspects i will try my absolute best to deliver accurate works. I’ll research to whatever extent i need to (if you don’t already give some information) so i can provide for groups of people that are seriously neglected when it comes to fanfiction and such. and please, in the future, if i ever do fuck up PLEASE hold me accountable and if you can show me what i’ve done wrong and what i should’ve done; what i can do to improve, i would be so appreciative- my goal is to be as inclusive as possible with my writing and the last thing i want is to offend any body of people.

finally, there will be types of writing i can’t do for specific characters. for example, spot, idk how tf i would write like a whole one-shot when my man is how he is now so i’d probably just have to stick to headcanons n such

what i will write :

requests can be either platonic or romantic dynamics, potentially other stuff if you have any ideas. just lemme know ! i do like to consider myself half decent at writing, i’ve studied english literature and linguistics my whole life and i love it very dearly <3 i’m going on to study english as a whole at a higher level (literature, language, linguistics, creative writing)

i'm happy to also apply these headcanons to the cc's, so transgender miguel for instance! just let me know :]

i typically write in bullet points because im a mess

x male reader

x nb reader (feel free to specify if they’re ambiguous, masc leaning or whatever if it’s relevant to the ask)

x trans reader

x cis reader

x spider reader

x mutant reader

character x reader

if you request multiple characters (which is fine <3) i’ll likely default to headcanons for the sake of ease

what i won’t write :

x fem reader .

character x character

NSFW

triggering topics (excluding canon events)

weird fetish/kink stuff :[

hate speech, everyone is welcome here

[onyxisnotuniqueenough]

hey guys i admire more than anything projects like ITSV/ATSV, cuphead, TMNT:MM, brba/bcs, and i love murder mysteries, superhero stories (especially spider-man he is my life) and interesting theming for animated/tv/storytelling projects like dimension 20's mentapolis, wandavision (even if i'm not that into it, i still LOVED the theming), well, cuphead ofc.

i am so so interested in screenwriting and story telling and art and animation specificities that make projects look unique

i am studying the most unrelated thing ever in university and i want to change my life's trajectory and do something that i WANT to do!

i obviously love drawing and character designing, i always have, even if i'm not the best at it

so i am wondering : what degree/program should i pursue or look for if i want to work in the comic book/animation/story telling world?

i am not interested in animation or illustration

i am interested in writing/screenwriting and character design and production design (a bit less) (for live action stuff)

the people i admire in the industry all studied/have different degrees in the art/writing/film world, so i'm not sure which way to look.

any advice? any recommendations for resources?

Comic book creator Todd McFarlane talks Spawn reboot, working with Ozzy and competing with the giants

Credit Calgary herald

Todd McFarlane has not forgotten the vow he made to Calgary back in 2017.

At the time, the comic book artist, producer and toy entrepreneur was a guest at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo and was asked about the long-gestating reboot of Spawn, which had spent years in developmental purgatory. He told the audience at the Stampede Corral that the film would hold its premiere in Calgary if he gets it “off the ground.

Fast-forward six years later McFarlane says the film is back on track. A-list writers Scott Silver, who co-wrote the 2019 hit Joker, and Malcolm Spellman, who created the Disney+ superhero series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, are currently working on the screenplay. Jamie Foxx has long been attached to play the lead role, a superhero/antihero that McFarlane first created at the age of 16 in his parents’ basement near Crowchild and 24th Avenue N.W.

The 1992 comic book debut, which came out on McFarlane’s Image Comics, sold more than 1.7 million copies and the Spawn series holds the Guinness World Record for the longest-running, creator-owned, superhero comic book title. There was a 1997 live-action film with Michael Jae White, which grossed more than $100 million, and an Emmy-winning animated series that ran on HBO from 1997 to 1999. The reboot has been in the works in one form or another for years.

“On the movie front, hopefully – fingers crossed – by the middle of this year we should be making a big announcement that we found our studio, we made our deal and potentially, as part of that deal, they’ve given us our production start date,” says McFarlane. “Really, all fans care about is ‘When can I go see it?’ But at least I’ve got to be able to say ‘This year. We’ve got the money, we’ve got the backing and we’ve even got a start date.'

When it does come out, McFarlane still wants to hold one of the premieres in his hometown.

“Let me tell you right now, if I possibly can, I’m putting it into the contract,” McFarlane says. “It might be the dealbreaker. And I get two premiere spots. I live in Phoenix, I think the Phoenix people will come out in droves because they did the first time we did Spawn. I think they will come out in droves and have a good time in Calgary. That’s it. There it is: If you don’t give me that, then I pull this entire deal. I’m going to see if I can negotiate that.”

McFarlane was back in Calgary this week visiting family. On Sunday, hundreds of fans showed up at Video Game Trader in Lake Bonavista for an autograph session. In 1981, the William Aberhart High School grad left Calgary at the age of 18 on a baseball scholarship to Eastern Washington University, where he studied art and design. Within a few weeks of graduation, he got his first comic book job for Marvel. He would go on to illustrate for both Marvel and DC, drawing for Batman: Year 2, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk and co-creating the Spider-Man villain/anti-hero Venom.

But he is arguably still best known for creating Spawn and for co-founding Image Comics in 1992, which also became home to Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore’s Walking Dead comic-book series. In 1994, he revolutionized the toy industry with the realistic action figures he created for McFarlane Toys. In 1999, he won an Emmy for the animated Spawn series and earned a Grammy nod for directing Pearl Jam’s animated video for Do The Evolution. The following year, he won a Grammy for directing the video for Korn’s Freak on a Leash.

Late last year, he returned to the medium to direct the video for Ozzy Osbourne’s Patient Number Nine, which resulted in a lengthy feature in Rolling Stone magazine about McFarlane’s work in music videos.

“The request came from (Ozzy’s wife) Sharon Osbourne,” McFarlane says. “I knew her from the past. We had done some stuff with toys and comic books with her and had always done well. In the pre-preparation for shooting, I was dealing mostly with the record label and Sharon. I’m sure she showed everything to Ozzy to get the sign-off. The day of the shoot, that dude was a pro. It’s one thing I’ve always been super impressed with for all the music videos I’ve been involved with. When you say ‘Action,’ all of them are performers. They know what to do when they are on stage. This switch goes on and they just do it. At that point when we shot it, I think it was about a week before his back surgery. He just had pretty extensive back surgery and was living in severe pain. You could see he was in pain and his mobility was limited and all that. So he paced himself, which is what a smart person would do. But when I said ‘Action,’ he turned into the 25, 30-year-old Ozzy.”

On top of the promising developments in the Spawn reboot, McFarlane has continued to find success in both the comic book and toy worlds. He credits the relatively small group of people he works with for the company’s David-versus-Goliath success.

“I’ve got a good core of people,” he says. “We’re scrappy. We’re the Bad News Bears of our industry.”

In 2021, Spawn beat out behemoths DC Comics and Marvel to become the No. 1 selling comic book. That same year, his Spawn spinoff titles – Scorched, Gunslinger Spawn and King Spawn – broke sales records. Last year, the crossover Batman Spawn title became a bestseller.

McFarlane Toys’ beat out Fortune 500 companies such as Hasbro and Mattel with the bestselling action-figure line of 2021. The company is currently licensed to create figures for Black Adam, Shazam, The Flash and Batman movies for the DC Multiverse, James Cameron’s Avatar, Dune and even Ted Lasso.

“Their size is their blessing and their curse,” says McFarlane about the giant corporations he competes with. “I could say the same thing about my smallness: it’s my blessing and my curse. Here’s the blessing: I can move quick, I can move fast. Here’s their curse: They are so big and bloated, they can’t move fast. If I see an opening, I can see that opening way faster than they can get into it. I’m not trying to compete, let’s say on the toy front, directly with what the giants are doing. I’m not trying to slay the giants, that’s not the victory. The victory is saying: Where have they left the gap?”

Enter Venomgirl ch.8

Peter B.'s Pov

That could on gone well. As I carry the Hobgoblin to his cage waiting for him to be set back home. Mayday giggle which I was happy I guess Shade must activate her spidey sense which is still a work in progress. I was going to head to Miles’s Earth since Miguel ground him and his group of friends till I got a Message from my watch from Lyla.

“Hey Peter B. Miguel needs to come to meet to talk about the collider situation. Be there in 10.” Lyla said as disappeared 

I sigh and message Miles that I’m going to be late. I guess I talked to the big man to see what going on. Mayday stuck on her tongue, not like daddy going to the meeting. I know Mayda, Daddy hates meeting too.

I reached the meeting room to see Jess, Ben, and Petra were already there. Jess Finally back from giving birth to her child and took leave. I help out her on Earth so she can at least spend time with her kid. Ben and Petra talking to each other about their dark past, how life is so cruel, and how Ben’s job is making a new Latte flavor. I sat down next Jess who had a smirk.

“So, how is Earth 2424? Tried the bread?” she joked, and I chuckled. I heard that Earth has the best bread. 

“No, but I did meet the symbiote variant that Lyla was talking about. Too bad I caught her in a bad time. Hobgoblin soundblasted her and she wasn’t in the great set of mind.”

“Eh, Symbiotes are a trick type to deal with. But at least she is one of the better ones.”

I was about to say something till a portal opened up in the room and we saw Miguel walk out from it. He dissolves his mask and look at us with his usually grumpy face. It would kill him to smile once in while?

“Sorry that I was late had chack on something on Earth 2424.”

“Have you eliminated the threat?” Petra said causing a sigh with Me, Jess, and Miguel. 

“No Petra. we don’t eliminate remember?” Jess said

“Anyway, the collider on Earth 2424 is still active and is now drawing things and people into it. And thank Peter for not telling me…” Miguel glared and me. I shrugged with a nervous smile while Mayday was giggling, probably knowing how much trouble I was in. 

“All the spider bots were destroyed. whatever destroyed them is strong and manages to get all five of them.” Miguel then pulls up some screens to show some videos and pictures of the collider and the Alchemax’s lab that the spider-bot was able to stagger. Lyla also came up too.

“What I was able to gather from spider-bots. Is that near the final phase for their collider before being complete? Unlike the one from  1610- Earth’s collider that wasn’t fully complete which in turn would have created a black hole that completely wiped that earth and all other earth near it. 2424 not only more complete but it seems it has some technology that not from that earth”

“What?! How were they able to get their hands on it.” I asked

Lyla then showed some of the tech. It is clearly more advanced than what is on that earth. 

“It reminds me of tech on my Earth,” Petra said to study it like the rest of us.

“With that, they are getting help from someone not from that Earth but the matter is now is who is giving them this tech and why?” Miguel said. As pull the screen away from us.

“We should go in and destroy. So their technology won’t be too advanced to start their own Robo war.” Petra said I can hear Miguel groan and say something in Spanish.

“ No Petra, were not going in, we still don’t know what the cannon events on that earth since the spider-women on that earth aren’t most cooperative. Lyla, how long do you guess when they are finished with the collider?”

“On the rate they going maybe in two days.”

“Maybe we should inform that Venomgirl?” I said as everyone looked at me 

“I mean she seems to be more to our side and she does hero work so…”

“No.” Miguel shut me down 

“ I agree with Miguel. She clearly can’t control herself and even though she does some good she has done some bad too.” Jess said with a stern look. I guess they want to make no get to careless with help. We had done some work with heroes that weren’t Spider-People most of the time they help other times they can be the problem.

“I’m going to create a spider bit with the kill code to be able to destroy collider. This one will be more durable. Ben. Petra. I’m going to send you both to check on the surrounding Earth to see they aren’t affected by this.” 

Both Ben and Petra nodded they got up and made two portals. “We’ll make sure that worlds don’t fall into darkness.” 

Miguel then looked at Jess “Tell everyone to be prepared for a Spot-level threat and be ready if need be.” 

Jess then got up and headed to door. About to head door “ will do.”

Just leave Miguel and Me. Also Mayday of course. I got up with Mayday still in the carrier she getting bigger. I wanted to ask how the Shade was doing. 

“So how was Venomgirl? I hope I didn’t make things worse.” I asked Miguel sigh 

“She ok. She wants to apologize for trying to hurt you and Mayday.”

“I see.” we awkwardly stand there. More like me awkwardly standing there and Miguel kept looking at the screen, seeing all the data from Earth 2424. Even though we sharing more of the workload for Miguel. He still insists on taking most of the work. That is how he got overworked first place. He still feels a tremendous amount of guilt on what happened to Gabriella and Earth 928B. I know he talked about it, but I wish he had talked to us more about it. I look at the screen and see Venomgirl or Shade fighting Hobgoblin during the fight she seems to have the upper hand till he soundblasted her. I mean for a woman who has been fighting for years and on her own she is pretty good. But what holding her back is her power and the lack of control.

“Maybe we can recruit her?” I said out loud. Both Miguel and Lyla stop looking screen and look back at me with crazy looks. Mostly from Miguel. 

“And why would I do that?” 

“Well, Me and Jess were thinking…” Miguel looked at me with arm folded, with eyebrows raised. “Ok! Me! I was the one thinking you should train people. It helps you get out of the office. You either here or on a mission!”

Miguel rubbed the bridge of his nose and let out a huff

“Look. Peter, I know you, Jess, hell even Miles wants me to join you all but I can’t there is still a multiverse that still needs us, and if I let up for just a moment I-” Miguel stops himself as a beeping noise goes off. Guessing tell him it's time to take his medicine. He went over to the desk to grab the injector gun and I covered Mayday’s eye not wanting her to see it. I can see took a deep breath, probably from the injection doing work.

“Let me get back to work,” Miguel said as he pulled up the screen again. Lyla looked at me with a ‘sorry’ look but I sighed as I made a portal to Miles’s earth. Give Miguel one last look before leaving.

Miles’s pov

“Man where is he?!” out loud waiting for Peter to come. He promised he help me with my physics project. My grade in that class isn’t doing so hot, it doesn’t help I have been missing classes. My parent was kind of understanding since I told them I was Spider-man but still wanted me to get good grades. 

“He’ll come don’t worry,” Pav said. him, Gwen, and Hobie were chilling in my room. My parents are at work so we don’t have to worry about my parent seeing them. Gwen and Pav were doing their homework while Hobie was playing with his guitar since he didn’t have school. 

“Yeah, well he promised. I already miss like six classes and if I get one grade below an A, my parents are going to kill me!”

“They would understand. Your Spider-man remember?” Gwen said with a smirk. I playfully rolled my eyes at her. After the Spot incident, I told my parent I was Spider-man it was not like I had a choice since my mask was torn from battle. They accepted that I was a hero but it was no excuse for missing school. The irony. 

“Well, that not going to save me from failing!”

“That's why you call me.” 

We turn toward the window seeing Peter and Mayday hang upside down. I walk over to the window to open wide for him to get in. 

“What took you so long?

Peter sighed as he gave Mayday Gwen as she wanted to be held by her and grabbed a chair to sit next to me

“Well, Miguel chewed me out because I didn’t tell him about the spider bots being destroyed in Earth 2424. I just found out when I looked at the feed too.” 

I gave him a raised eyebrow. I thought the Spiderbots were durable and well-hidden when they were sent out. 

“I met that Venomgirl you guys were talking about. Well, kind of.”

“Oh, you met Shade?” Pav said as he was playing with Mayday too

“She something. Uh, I kind of spooked her though and she must have gotten hurt since she latched out at me.” 

“Heh, Rookie mistake old man. I thought you're an expert on symbiotes” Hobie joked

“Hey! I’m not that old! I was just a bit rusty that all.” Peter sticks his tongue out at Hobie. Hobie did the same. 

“Also aren’t all of you grounded by Miguel? Not allowed to visit each other Earths?” 

We just roll our eyes, that not going to stop us. Since Hobie made more watches for us just in case something like this happened. Were not going to see each other just because Miguel said so. He is not our dad. 

“We should take a visit to Earth- 2424.” Hobie said 

“Yeah they might be something we can help with,” Prav said

“As much want to also go. We still don’t know what was that triggered are spider senses.” I pointed it out. It still bugs me what was that? The last time my spider sense caused me the pain was the Spot who was going to destroy everything and everyone. Whatever it is or who it was it is something we should avoid. 

“None of you guys going to Earth 2424. Remember what Miguel said. That Earth is banned. The only reason we're dealing with it is because there's a collider and whoever tries to mess with Spider-Verse.” Peter said as we all gave him a look of ‘really’. He knows us. He knows we don’t stop at nothing till we get to the bottom of it. Peter sighed, knowing he sucks being an adult sometimes.

“Come on guy! I’m trying to set an example for my kid.”

“And you doing an ok job.” Gwen jokes as she and Hobie get up Gwen then opens a portal with one of Hobie’s watches 

“Well, I have to head back to my Earth, to get my drumsticks.”

“Me too Mates. I have run a runaway show to play tomorrow and Gwen going to play with me. My drummer is sick.” Hobbies said as they headed to the portal. Something tells me they have other ideas about earth2424. I really want to help but I also want to pass my classes too.

 Third person pov

Back on Earth-2424 Alchemax labs, Arachnidqueen was livid. Battleready was fighting her nemesis and not only that it caused her to lose a lot of views since she wasn’t the one who fought Venomgirl. It is bad enough she has to go get him but Venomgirl ran off with the anomaly that she was supposed to bring back to Alchemax. Her boss is going to kill her.

Arachnidqueen walked past Dr. Rose's lab seeing his true ‘lab experiments’. A horrible mutant that was turn being injected with Compound R. Alchemax was still trying to figure out a way to give people superpower without being required to be born with them. But so far they only turn into monsters and there is only one that was close but was killed years ago by Venomgirl. Also, new Public Eyes robots were being made. Arachnidqueen saw a robot unit they were still working on that has the number: KT-2442.

What does that mean? She thought as she headed to the meeting room

She finally reached her leader's office and opened the door. The leader was in a dark room with her glowing eyes. She could see two hollow projections that her boss talking to. One was the man the other was a woman that she couldn’t make out.

“I see the collider working well.” the woman in the projection said 

“Well of course with my technology from my Earth and your experience it wouldn’t been too hard.” the man said 

“Yes, it has been working. I will do my end of the deal. I give you some Compond R. as payment. I can finally go looking for the material that once and for all I can complete it.” Her boss said with her hands clapped together in the shadow of her room only to see her glowing inhuman pink eyes. “We will continue with collider work you can get someone to pick it up.” 

“We will.” then the two holograms disappear leaving only Arachindqueen with her boss. As she walked closer to her she felt something wrap around her neck knowing it was her boss's power. It’s never off, always high alert. He boss looks at her with her glowing eyes, Arachnidqueen can tell her boss is not happy.

“I see you saved Battleready. But where does the anomaly go? The one I sent you retrieved?” her boss said with an emotionless tone. Something Arachnidqueen was used to

“I tried to get them but, those Spider-man came out of nowhere and caught them. Also, I was outnumbered.”

“I see. They warn me about those Spider-men. Having the same power as you but getting it from different means.” The boss saw a video of Venomgirl fighting the hobgoblin and was losing but not before a red and blue figure came and saved her.

“Will be having more guesses coming over. I want you to prepare the other. I don’t want failure.

Spider-Man Read-Through 040: Hitman's Back In Town (ASM 172-175, Ann 11)

MASTERPOST

In this batch, Peter (tries) to shoot a movie, Aunt May is a delinquent, and we see a few villains return!

Let's go through Annual 11 first!

So Aunt May's at a protest (we've previously seen she's invested in politics now!) and gets arrested because the cops think she's violent. The bail (because I forget the US has bail) is 200 dollars, which is a bit more than 1000 current dollars. Oof. No wonder Peter is stressed out.

I think she meant, "You can't make a Tomlet without breaking a few Greggs". Understandable mistake.

So May kind of sucks.

To cheer Peter up, MJ suggest he comes with her at work. She's an actress, you see! Well, an extra, but that's a detail. The villain is none other than... Man-Spider, to Peter's sadness. Mishaps happen, and Spidey ends up saving our villain. The crew offers him a role, which is something we've seen a few times before. It never goes very well!

The costume creator is NOT happy about that though, and he recruits three goons to fight our hero with some of his costumes.

I guess the artists wanted to draw aliens.

Look, it's been a long time for Peter, you know? Let's forgive him for all this mess.

So these spiders go at it for a while, and naturally, Spidey wins the fight. But suddenly... the place EXPLODES!

Turns out the evil guy wasn't the costumer, but a producer all along! Spidey takes care of him.

...Okay, whatever. If you couldn't tell, I skimmed through the issue. Do bails even get refunded? What the heck?

The issue features a second, shorter story. At the Coffee Bean, Peter and MJ are under attack. Turns out the nice musician was in cahoots with the gangster, oooh! At the end, MJ's angry at Pete for abandoning her.

A n y w a y.

ASM 172 time!

The story starts right in the action, as Spidey pursues Rocket-Racer, a McDonald's cosplayer. Spidey catches our clown, and more importantly, we get some panels with the other members of the cast, thank Lord!

I KNEW IT!!!! He's back! He's baaaaack! I did say he'd be back, hell yeah.

Afterwards, at a restaurant, Harry asks Peter to be his boyfr---I mean, his best man. Then they notice Liz, agitated, passing by. However, she runs away before Harry can catch up to her. Harry's understandably taken aback, and Peter tries his best to comfort him.

No, there's no kisses involved, to our great dismay.

At the Bugle, Gloria seems to strive just as before. Jameson is upset, as usual. However, when Dr Madison calls him, only joy remains in his brain and he dismisses Peter. Jameson's not quick enough to avoid Peter seeing Madison, however.

Great, Peter's finally caught up. Dear Lord.

Turns out Liz Allen is in a cell! She tried to steal things at a hospital, but can't bring herself to tell Peter WHOMST she did it for. Peter calls Robbie, and the latter accepts to bail out Liz.

Spidey tracks the Molten Man, who complains that his gloves didn't last long. Friend, here's a tip for you: your underwear is stronger than anything else, maybe you should study it and understand what's going on with it. Just a thought.

They fight, then police interrupt them. Onto #173!

The most important thing right off the bat is that one of the doctors does kung-fu.

Completely random, but I love it.

Meanwhile, the Molten Man finds himself a scientist who will ~willingly~ help him create the serum he needs to become human again. And it works!

Or not. Well, this is depressing.

Meanwhile, with our cast, Liz tells the reader that Harry will soon have the hand on his father's business. Oh. The sketchy shrink miiiiight be interested in that. The cops barge in and ask Liz to come with them. Raxton wants to have a discussion!

Later, Peter receives a letter from ESU. They say that he can't graduate since his grades are insufficient. Oops.

He also receives a call from Robbie, asking him to take pictures of the Raxton/Liz situation.

Raxton tells his step-sister he knows he's dying.

She makes a point, and Raxton obviously forgets he's in a comic book. Also, I love this moment between Liz and Spidey? It's small, but it's great.

The two super-powered people fight. Liz begs Spidey to not attack the MM, but he replies that he doesn't have a choice. To this, I answer... really, Spidey? Really? He wasn't particularly antagonistic before. He apologized to the earlier scientist and he had a civil, resigned conversation with his step-sister. Every time the Molten Man comes up, Spidey acts like an asshole.

At least we get an... interesting panel. Does anyone have Tarantino's phone number?

That's a cool setpiece, honestly.

Raxton says once more than he has no chance to survive this time, which we all know is bonkers, and the more he talks about it, the more ridiculous it becomes.

The Molten Man begs Liz to not let him die alone, then he explodes. Liz is depressed.

Oof. This is an awful parallel, not only to what happened a few panels ago, but also, and most importantly...

...to this.

:(

In the readers' letters, the team says that they made a mistake previously: nobody knows Harry was the Green Goblin, they just believe he thought he was. Okay. Makes more sense.

Also, this:

Uh-oh.

Onto #174!

The covers during Len Wein's run have been interesting. They're beautiful, but they seem a bit too busy.

The issue begins with Frank Castle, alias the Punisher, going through a frankly nice battle (I don't say that often!) with the People's Liberation Front.

Spidey's about to fling into his window when his landlady opens it herself and throws out ammoniac water right on Pete's costumed face--it's cleaning day, after all! That's funny.

Meanwhile, the PLF wants Jameson out of the picture and hires the Hitman to get rid of him. I'm on their side, Jameson sucks any time he tries to kill our hero.

Later, Peter stumbles on Harry and Flash not being boyfriends, nor sir, go away, there's nothing to see here! I ship them.

Turns out Liz has broken up with Harry, who's dismayed. Flash makes a disparaging comment about Liz, and Harry loses it. He's not a fan of Flash's attempts to cheer him up.

To help Harry, his two friends bring him to his doctor. Hmm. Sure. Yeah. What a great idea. Nothing bad will happen, I presume. Huh-huh.

What's funny is that after his few few cameos, they really toned down the doctor's creepiness. But there's still something unsettling beneath his eyes...

On a date with Marla Madison, Jameson enters his office... and finds the Hitman comfortably sprawled on his chair. Marla is a smartass and opens the intercom while the Hitman and Jameson hit it off to let the Bugle know of the kidnapper's plans.

She kind of slays, but I can't imagine we'll see her for much longer.

The employees don't quite know if it's a joke. The Hitman quickly discovers the trick and blasts the machine.

Spidey and the Punisher find themselves escalading the same building to save Jameson. That's a fun idea!

By the time the police enters, it's a complete clusterfuck (so it's really entertaining).

When #175 rolls about, they're still at it! The Hitman takes off with Jameson in a makeshift helicopter. While Spidey and the Punisher follow them, Marla gets a heartwarming scene where she's comforted by Robbie and Gloria.

In his car, the Punisher tells Spidey about his life story, and particularly about that time the Hitman, pre-costume era, saved him in Vietnam.

Meanwhile, Harry and Barton Hamilton, the shrink, are having an enlightening conversation. By which, I mean, Hamilton purposefully riles up Harry, and the latter attacks him.

Well well. Seems like the therapy hasn't worked that well now, did it?

:(

I hope he's not dead.

The final act takes place on the Statue of Liberty. The Punisher and Spidey save Jameson from the PLF, who planted bombs all over the big statue. This gives Ross Andru and his mates a chance to depict a grandiose and quite impressive SoL.

The clusterfuck is back! What are you going to do, Frank Castle? Who are you?

Damn.

That was a good batch. Not excellent, but solid.

Poor Harry, though. I'm sad he's the Goblin again, and so soon...! I love the Green Goblin, he's my favorite villain by far, by far! But oof. Just... oof.

On *that* website, everyone is convinced that the therapist is dead, but is he really? I'm not so sure. I kind of hope he's not. The events certainly surprised me!

Look... I might... start the Green Goblin batch now... we'll see if there's no issue with SSM... I'm too invested :(

Part of Chapter One

Okay, let’s run it back one more time. My name is Miles Morales. And I’m my universe’s only Spiderman. I thought I was the only one, but I wasn’t. As it turns out, there are a lot of Spidermen throughout a lot of universes. I thought some of them were my friends, but they weren’t. In the end I had to go my own way. And I ended up in a universe I couldn’t get out of. I thought I wouldn’t get out, but now…I’m in Tokyo.

              …

              Miles Morales, after a narrow escape from the Spider Society, found himself in Tokyo after a massive earthquake. Or at least, it felt like an earthquake. Uncle Aaron, The Prowler (the other Miles), and everything that had been around him disappeared. Still, it was embarrassing to be in the middle of someplace with no direction. The only telling sign of place was the Tokyo Tower.

              Apparently, a lot of other universes had blended into this one, and nothing was glitching like it should have been by now. Not even himself. Something, or, more than likely, someone, was keeping things weirdly stable. And he wasn’t going to trust whoever was doing it.

              For now, he’d found refuge at a shrine of all places. He felt a little bad, especially after those American YouTube guys wreaked havoc on a Japanese shrine that one time. Luckily, the old man running the shrine seemed to have no idea about the Pauls’ or their antics. So, Miles got a free place to stay (in exchange for some minor chores). He’d been here about a week, along with a few others.

              A few people, scattered from different places, were living there under the old man’s kindness. To be honest, some of them looked downright shady. But the others were nice enough. He’d gotten to know their names and some basics about them: there was Sokka and Zuko. They were from the same world. Wherever it was. Sokka was a bit sarcastic, funny, and couldn’t draw to save his life. Miles had tried to give him some pointers, but he’d just exasperatedly slammed his pen down on his desk and went back to chores. Zuko was a bit more brooding and looked like the very definition of teen angst. Where Sokka was overly talkative and overall friendly, Zuko chose his words wisely. But he didn’t give off any bad vibes. Not like Giorno. Giorno was an enigma. Like Zuko, he chose his words carefully, and he only spoke when necessary. His ‘spidey senses’ (still a dumb name), could tell there was something weird about his biology. Just…mismatched, maybe? And he’d been here longer than the others had. Something had attacked him, but he never mentioned what—the bruises and damage on his body was evident. Then there was Luz Noceda and Arven. Luz and Miles got along the best here. Luz liked watching anime, reading, and trying to study these weird drawings she made. She also, wasn’t that bad at drawing. And she had a cute little dragon (?) palisman with her. It’s name—Stringbean. Arven was honest. He helped around the most, admittedly. And he was good at it. Like he’d been taking care of things back home—a lot. Plus, he had a whole team of Pokémon to help him out. Honestly, highlight of both Luz Noceda and Miles’s lives—finding out Pokémon were real. They promised they’d go catch one of their own this weekend together. Arven even offered to help, albeit a bit reluctantly.

              “You don’t think Stringbean will feel like I’m replacing them if I catch a Pokémon, do you, Miles? Arven?” Luz asked.

              “This seems more like a question for Arven,” Miles admitted.

              Arven, Miles, Sokka, Zuko, Arven, and even Giorno were sitting around a brown table in one of the guest rooms. The shrine maiden and the old man’s original disciple were probably in another section of the shrine entirely. This place was way bigger than Miles thought it would be.

              “Good question,” Arven said, glancing up thoughtfully. “I’m guessing it depends on Stringbean’s personality type. Honestly, I’ve never heard of a palisman before…but, they sound and act like a Pokémon to me. If you’re unsure, maybe go with an Eevee?”

              Luz pressed the palms of her hands against her cheeks, gushing, “An Eevee?! I didn’t even think of that! Great idea, Arven! I’ll catch one for me and my sweet potato!”

              Her sweet potato girlfriend, Amity, who Luz managed to sneak into every single conversation. It must be nice to have someone to love and trust like that. Miles wouldn’t know.

              “Heh,” Arven rubbed the back of his head, “Still can’t believe there’s no Pokémon where all of you all come from.”

              “Don’t need them when you have a flying air bison and a flying lemur,” Sokka boasted.

              “And where are they right now?” Giorno asked, chiming in unexpectedly.

              “Probably with a friend,” Zuko said bluntly, keeping eye contact with Giorno. Couldn’t cut the tension with an Octavius appendage.

              Miles cleared his throat, “Uh, so, Arven, you said there was like a university in Paldea.”

              “An academy,” Arven corrected. “We do scavenger hunts every year. I caught all of mine with my friend, Juliana. She’s my little buddy. Best friend, really.”

              “That’s gotta be fun, going on adventures like that with your friends. I do all the time,” Luz said. “Gus, Willow, Amity, Vee, Hunter, and I go on little adventures all the time. I wonder if they ended up here too…”

              Her smile dimmed a little. Not-knowing was the worst. And it was evident with the passion and gleam in her eyes when she spoke that she cared about them a lot.

              Miles put a hand on her shoulder, “I’ll help you look for them, Luz.”

              Luz gave him a small smile, “Thanks Miles.”

              It was quiet for a moment. An uneasy silence. Giorno reached for the remote and flipped through the channels. Language barriers be damned. Everything seemed to translate into everyone’s native tongue. It must be a part of the scheme. But why? Why go through all the trouble?

              Giorno finally landed on the news channel. “Might as well see if there are any updates.”

              Two hosts, neither being from Miles’s dimension, spoke in cheerful tunes on camera. One looked like he was wearing chrome—his hair looked like raven chrome glossed in hairspray and his outfit—a chrome pink. The woman, Arven recognized. She was a worldwide reporter in his world. She even battled people to get a good story.

              “This just in,” the woman spoke in an overly cheery voice. “This melded world’s problems may be coming up with resolutions. Leader of the Aether Paradise, Lusamine is here with her partnered associates to speak with us today.”

              “And what glamourous timing,” the chrome man spoke up. He turns to a woman entering the room. Half of her face is framed by her long, blond hair. Her dress barely touches her knees, and it’s got a huge green jewel Miles doesn’t recognize in any of his studies in the center. She wears long, white leggings. The simple way to describe her is an eyesore, bright white.

              “Hello darling!” Chrome man chirrups. “You look marvelous today! Now, I know you wanted to tell us about this little project you’ve got going on to help the little kerfuffle we’ve got going on right now.”

              The woman, Lusamine giggles, “Quite the warm welcome Mr. Meta. Thank you. And yes. We do have a task force put together. For now, Mr. O’Hara and I are the main proponents of the forc—”

              Lusamine’s words crumbled and tumbled together like TV fuzz in Miles’s ears. O’Hara. O’Hara. O’Hara. Of all the people to have ended up in the same situation as him, it had to be Miguel O’Hara. If he were here, he’d never get back to his own universe. He’d never accomplish his plan on how to save his dad once and for all.

Ask meme here

18: Are you scared of spiders?

Not really? I’d prefer they not climb on me, unless I’m holding one that specifically a pet OR I find a really cute jumping spider or daddy long legs! I’m mostly just wary about getting bitten by one…I’ve reacted badly to bug bites before so I don’t want to be reckless.

My father on the other hand is terrified of spiders but pretends not to be lol. I once came home to him spraying the entire house, every nook and cranny, because he heard the radio say that it was spider breeding season and that they love hiding in house closets to do so.

24: What is/are/were your best subject(s)?

My best subjects in high school were English and Art. My mom has been a highschool English teacher since I was in kindergarten and I went to the highschool she taught at, so I was very familiar already with a lot of the books we were reading because my mom would read them to me. Beowulf, Shakespeare, Frankenstein. Childhood stories to me haha. I can’t wait to read The Hobbit to my own kids when they’re old enough :)) Plus I got her brain so it was easy for me to write essays. I’m an excellent bullshitter and rambler when I need to be.

Art because I’ve always loved drawing! I’m a kinetic learner aka I learn with my hands so drawing helped me study too. It’s funny because one of my math teachers tried to help me learn by using a visual aid, saying “You’re an artist! You should be able to learn visually!” But I really only learn art by drawing things over and over and over until I muscle memorize it.

Worst subject: Math. I was tested when I was a kid for learning disabilities because my brother had some, and they said I had a general math learning disability. (I got diagnosed with adhd at 24 and my whole life suddenly made sense haha.) My brain literally cannot imagine numbers. It’s like aphantasia but with numbers.

Science is a close second worst subject but only because it sometimes had math in it. My senior science teacher was an entomologist though!! Had some tarantulas and other bugs. Made me pay attention more lol. She even discovered a type of wasp so it was really cool.

34: Who/what was your last dream about?

I…literally cannot remember haha. I haven’t been getting deep enough sleep to dream lately. Last dream I remember was when I was pregnant and it was a pretty sucky nightmare. It actually might have been a sleep paralysis dream? I dreamt there was a man at the foot of my bed that the proceeded to start assaulting me and my husband was still sleeping right next to me despite it all. It felt so real that when I woke up I was still feeling awful. Pregnancy dreams really suck.

The visual effects industry's future is being shaped by five developments

There is no need to explain the hype surrounding the incredibly popular design careers in India nowadays given the variety of possibilities on the market. Candidates who possess an artistic mindset and creative abilities should explore the field. Success and heights are assured with a design career from the MAAC Institute.

1. Artists don't use visual effects to economize on production

 The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers production saw the development of contemporary motion capture technology. The Matrix featured ground-breaking bullet time sequences, and Toy Story, the first fully computer-animated feature film, also emerged during this decade.

 Several filmmakers in the 2000s and early 2010s overused visual effects and relied on VFX technology to speed up the production process due to favorable reactions to such improvements. The effects of these choices, according to Seals, who has worked on 30 films for VFX provider Luma Pictures, are still felt today.

 "At the time, the available technology and resources weren't quite adequate to the task. The use of visual effects to solve issues was met with resistance from audiences, according to the Curtin alumnus.

 "Today's audiences want filmmakers to make decisions on set that interact with the film's art, design, and language."

 According to Seals, VFX artists in the future will continue to only produce things that can't be captured on camera.

 What's a better product, he quips, than getting it in the lens?

 2. There are health and safety exceptions

Artists will probably continue employing the technology to reduce on-set safety issues, particularly when reproducing firearms, explosions, and big crowds, even while the visual effects industry continues to strive for authenticity.

 However, the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in more requirements. As the cast and crew of Spider-Man: No Way Home were unable to travel to New York City while filming, Luma Pictures was charged with generating the city's backdrops.

 Because of what Spider-Man is unable to do in real life, Seals explains, "We didn't just use visual effects to heighten the story, drama, and action: we used it to create Times Square, Madison Square, and everything in between."

 3. The use of StageCraft LED technology is expanding.

The development of a production method dubbed StageCraft, developed in 2019 for Disney's The Mandalorian, is a significant advancement. Large 3D LED walls with computer-generated scenes that react to camera movements in real time are placed behind actors in StageCraft.

 According to Seals, the technique, which is reminiscent of the days of projected backgrounds, provides directors more control over artistic direction during shooting.

 "The cinematographer can respond to genuine imagery. They are no longer need to hazard a guess as to what is going on a blue screen, he claims.

 The Mandalorian and other similar TV shows are currently held to the same standard as movies, thus I believe the outcomes speak for themselves.

 4. Deepfakes are more convincing than ever.

You can find a variety of results by typing "deepfake" into a search engine like YouTube. Deepfaking is the practise of utilising artificial intelligence to substitute someone's face with another person's face for a photograph or video.

 Some of the results are funnier than others, showing imagined situations in which popular on-screen characters played by other actors, such as actor Tom Holland playing Peter Parker in Spider-Man 2 instead of Tobey Maguire, while other results draw attention to the risks associated with the technology.

 While visual effects technology has been used admirably in official and fan-made works, according to Dr. Stuart Bender, who studies psychological responses to high-emotion media, there are real-world dangers.

  The first issue is that the average person might create deep fakes as a form of bullying using visual effects. Another issue is that government-sponsored PSYOP initiatives might create profound fakes of public influencers, according to Dr. Bender.

 The public might start to doubt whether anything is a true image, much like we do when we wonder whether the news is phoney, according to a third, much more legitimate issue I have.

 5. The sector is integrating itself into the entire production process.

The most exciting development is that visual effects teams are now involved in all stages of film production, not just post-production.

 Throughout the pre-production stage as well as the production and post-production stages, more vendors are being entrusted with upgrading the graphics and choreography of pre-visualization sequences. The expanded use of StageCraft has also made it possible for VFX to be integrated throughout the entire procedure.

 According to Seals, "Visual effects is evolving into a living, breathing entity that remains with a production until the very end."
