Pulse 406 WIP 1

The start of Mira's story in this chapter.  You know she really hasn't been in the comic all that much.  She appeared in the chapter about the cafeteria and fought Tabitha, she appear broken and unconscious in the chapter about Annie moving back in with Lucy, and then she appeared in the chapter the ended with her h...

A Day Off No Matter What page 16 WIP 2

A little behind on this.  I had some of this done before, but was waiting to post a WIP.

The Gamemaster

I asked for suggestions on Twitter for words on a tshirt and then I'd pick who was drawn and whatever else.  "Fairy Game Master" was selected, which it seems relates to a gamemaster for Dungeons and Dragons and similar games.

Tabitha seemed like an obvious choice.  It would be a way for her to be in control, b...

The Story Told Twice

My picture for the 10th and 20th Anniversary of Pulse.  It's a remake of the cover to the year 2000 original Pulse webcomic.

My attempts to make larger versions of the older comics keep running into roadblocks.  These are just the original small web versions from 20 years ago off of a backup of the old site fr...

Possibly Skeptical

For Halloween, Lucy as Kim Possible.

Pulse 405

Last page of this scene.  I wanted Zoe to seem a little crazy, but it's possible she can be more than a troublemaker.

Next we jump to Mira for a few pages, and then to Annie, maybe to Tabitha then too, there's different scenes for each of them, and how I order them depends on which one is where.  There's seven...

Pulse 405 WIP 4

A little more drawing, then color and lettering.

I have to check in the first panel what other tables should be between them and the wall, and on panel 5 how far the windows went up.  I think above the horizontal bar was covered, not windows.

Pulse 405 WIP 3

Not as far along as I'd like, but it's coming along.

Pulse 405 WIP 2

Still have to decide what the hero guy looks like.

Spoiler WIP

Spoiler from Batman (who has been Robin and Batgirl at one point, unless the New 52 reboot erased that?).

Something seems off about it, but I'm not sure what.  Maybe fresh eyes will help.

I tried to make her more busty than the what I'd draw as the average superhero.  As artists change back and forth on ...

Pulse 405 WIP 1

I worry my handwriting isn't super easy to read...  I need to add a joke into the last panel.  This is the last page of this scene, and then it moves to Mira.

I thought logically Dr. Mae would have a lot of middle-aged superhero suitors.  She's attractive, still looks pretty young, and could stay married ...

Lucy as Kim Possible WIP

I couldn't think of a cute phrase for the title.  It's been so long since I've seen Kim Possible I can't remember any of the slogans.

I used the pose from official KP art for Lucy, but with a completely different background.  Ron was in the original picture, and I couldn't decide who that would be exactly. &nb...

Maximum Max 5

I've got one strip before Max's sister is introduced, I'm trying to decide what it should be about-- or what it should explain while it's just two characters.  It might be about Max game streaming, but it also could be about Ben, or about her job.

Materia Enhanced IV, pages 1-9 (2019-)

This is as much of the comic as I've made.  There's about 2-3 more pages for this section.  I know where it's going, I just need to rotate back to this.

Maximum Max 4

I tried to keep the systems, games, and controllers look slightly generic, but also to look like specific items.

She's sitting in the chair a little weirdly in the second panel, but maybe she's sliding into place?

Pulse 404

For Zoe to ever appear again in the story, she has to either become a villain or some kind of ally.  She just seems troubled, not evil, so an usual ally seemed more likely.

One more page or so here, then off to bring Mira back in the story (who has been turned off for almost 200 pages), then to Annie to wrap up the...

Demon Storm

Raven from Teen Titans

Blood Bank

A suggestion from Twitter, a sexy Vampire for Halloween.

Pulse 404 WIP 2

Warp must not sit on chairs... or she's ready to jump into action if needed.

Pulse 404 WIP 1

My handwriting might be a little hard to read, but I feel like it's a simpler process than trying to start with lettering?  This is more like what I used to do when I made comics by hand.  My handwriting is a little bigger than the final lettering, so I know I'll have a little extra space.

I think this and one...

Materia Enhanced III (2017-2018)

The third part of the story (that first post of the comic was two parts together).  Also included is the WIP of a page I didn't end up using.

I thought that I can't have Tifa not be the biggest, so she had to grow.  I think the virus story might have over-complicated things a little here.  I got stuck at ...

Who should Lucy be dressed up like for Halloween?

Some redhead options-

A Day Off No Matter What page 15

I guess the only action page in the comic.  The Pulse side-comic continues.

Materia Enhanced I & II (2015)

This started with just the first image on Tumblr.  Someone requested "busty Yuffie", and I drew the one picture.  It was popular enough I made it into a little Tumblr comic.  There's more to this, but it becomes a normal format comic.

There's also two WIPs I didn't end up using.  In one it's a differ...

Pulse 403

I'm trying to make Grace and Zoe more connected to the main cast, and make Zoe a little more of an ally.  Charlotte seemed like the best choice, considering she didn't fight her, and she seems like the type to try to make friends with anyone.

Pulse 403 WIP 2

I need to reconsidered the text in panel 3, and finish the lettering in a few pages.

Also review the art for mistakes, and add in some extra shading layers- one that adds shading to areas of the background, one that adds a slight white layer in the direction of light, and one slight blue layer in the direction of shadow...

Pulse 403 WIP 1

Way behind on this.

Katie comments she needs to call Shadowcast, Chimera's other teammate.  Then Grace, who is asleep embraces her.  Zoe tries to sneak away, but Charlotte grabs her and offers her something to eat.

I thought that I needed to sort of turn around Zoe a bit into less of a problem.  Cha...

Which Other Pulse Character Should I Draw in a Halloween Costume?

I thought I should do a second picture too.

She's Just Drawn that Way

An early Halloween picture with Annie dressed as Jessica Rabbit.

Maximum Max 4 & 5 WIP

I think I need to change things around slightly.  The introduction of Max's sister might be a page or two later.  I think in this beginning introduction I need to show her as a game streamer.

I've never really watched game streamers, but the limited perspective I have is that they usually seem to be super-impo...
