My heavyset Roy Harper commissions by “Arsenal” artist Rick Mays.

Why Roy/Will Harper’s dad bod is such a big deal for me

So I gather I’ve spent the last several hours being incoherent about

And I’ve come across as rather… hysterical.

But you have no idea what this represents to me.

For years, nearly a decade, I’ve been writing stuff about chubby/fat dad Roy Harper with Lian, stuff about him still being a hero and still being able to kick ass despite having a belly and still being considered attractive and sexy.

And at the end of the fifth chapter, Spooky Jones finally releases the soul, in what I can only describe as an enormous psychic burp, saving all the hostages. 

Happy ending!

At the end of the chapter 4 of “Engaging the Enemy”, Spooky Jones decides to save hostages from a sacrifice to the king of Hell by taking all of their souls inside of him.

As a result, he becomes a human-balloon, floating in the air and unable to do anything, filled with human souls and psychic energy.

(I like the nice touch of having the pants unbuttoned)

This is “Spooky Jones” from the webcomic The Young Protectors. It’s the arc “Engaging with the Enemy”. 

He is an occult magician healer type of guy in the super hero team, and he has quite an interesting moment in the story. Again, a finding of @joejoepotatowedge.

Now, as you may note, this is a webcomic originally published on Patreon but that got then released freely. As a result I’ll try to limit the screenshots I’ll take and I will always link the original website where the comic is published: (Right here. https://webcomics.yaoi911.com/archives/the-young-protectors-webcomic-archives/ )

And if you want to go support the artist, go do it. It’s a cute little comic about gay superheroes (and this Spooky Jones is bisexual by the way)

I was looking at some pictures of Ha'wea, and it likely wasn't the artist's intention, but I enjoy how he seems to have gained a bit of weight throughout his apparitions.

I mean he looked like this from the side at first:

But then later, still from the side, he distinctively looks rounder:

Woke: Chubby/fat Tim who’s gonna eat marshmallows and not put up with shit if it helps him deal with the fact he has gone to far too many funerals in the last couple of years

From “Journey Into Unknown Worlds”, another comic found by @joejoepotatowedge . 

In this story, a young chubby and bullied scout discovers a meteorite. It opens and reveals a pink goo that attacks the boy and gets down his throat. It fills his belly, expanding it and even making one of his shirt buttons pop. 

After that he turns into a giant bug monster.

Ugh… Roy Harper’s hair and just… his whole body is being annoying. Finishing the colours on this is just not happening right now. I think I’m gonna veer away and doodle some Blue Beetle or something…

Reblogging this here because it is a webcomic, and comics usually go on this blog

I found a unique webcomic sighting from "Harpy Gee". The character Prince Humphrey Albermarle starts off as thin as a rail to looking more plump.

Indeed!

For those of you who don't know this webcomic, there was an animated short version you might have heard about. And as it is usual for these kind of works, the body change actually occurs after a given time-skip, between chapters 4 and 5, as the character of the prince gains in height and thickness.

And, since Lightning Lad was hugging Bouncing Boy when the sickness spread, they swapped their power.

Bouncing Boy got the lightning power, and thus lost his overweightness, becoming as fit as the Lad. As for the Lad, not only does he gain Bouncing Boy’s power, he also gains his overweightness. (He also has the lava pimples at first, but they quickly disappear). 

The Lad is horrified, screaming “I’m all swollen!” as the other members of the Legion makes joke about his new girth. “The fat-head’s fat now!” or “I’m ripped! And so is Lightning Lad’s underwear…” (the last joke may be true, because we never actually see Lighting Lad from behind). 

Later, Bouncing Boy has to explain to Lightning Lad how to use the “turn into a ball power”. He says “When you get that gassy, expanding feeling, you gotta hold it in like… y’know.” to which Lightning Lad answers “Why am I not surprised?”

And at the end of the comic, when everyone is safely back in their ship, Infectious Lass explain that everyone should recover soon enough, in about forty-eight hours… but that returning to normal may take longer for victims of greater weight and mass. (It is unknown if she tries to tease Lightning Lad or if she is serious). But given that back on the ship, Lightning Lad is already snacking on a chocolate bar… maybe he will indeed have a harder time getting back into shape if he allows himself to snack like that (even though maybe it is because with his new girth he got a bigger stomach, and thus gets hungry easily?)

[thefatteningpicture]

The comic is about the try-outs of new members for the Legion of Super-Heroes.

One of the candidates is Infectious Lass, who can control diseases of all sorts. At one point she infects the arrogant lightning lad with “proactian lava-pimples” after he tries to seduce her with a cheesy pick-up line, giving him an acne-covered face (and apparently “it burns”. After all, these are “lava pimples”). 

To prove even further her powers, she unleashes a very specific sickness - one that is apparently supposed to block people’s powers, no matter they race or ethnicity. However, she modified it so that the disease would be temporary and eradicate itself. But by changing the sickness, she also changed unwillingly its effects, resulting in the “power-stopping” disease becoming a “power-swapping” disease

[thefatteningpicture]

From the 3rd issue of “Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st century”. 

The characters we will focus on here are Lightning Lad - the muscular, athletic, red-headed, arrogant guy. And Bouncing Boy, who shares many things with the original incarnation of the super-hero (being rotund, overweight, black-haired, with a blue uniform and having the power to turn into a ball). (And yes, this Legion of Super-Heroes are apparently teenagers. Or they look like teenagers. It would be weird if they were adults drawn in this style.)

And yes, in the third picture Bouncing Boy is thin and Lightning Lad is fat. Yes, this is a “body swap” story, kind of. And yes, we could make the joke “Lightning Lard”.
