Pulse Chapter 6, full-size, with and without dialog

(I know chapter 4 & 5 should have been next, but looking at the files I have, I had started coloring and re-lettering them.  They have some pages that are still the originals, some that are updated, some that don't have the lettering, or either new or old coloring.)

Chapter 6 is the start of the color pages ori...

A Day Off No Matter What 1 WIP

I did this a couple of days ago and didn't have a chance to post it.  Here's a possible opening for the beach comic.  I'll set this so all Patreons can see this.

The thought for this was to try to make something that seemed like a slice of life for a superhero, but not have more than a little combat.

Her...

Pulse 369 WIP 1

I've got the flu, so this page is going to be a little late, but here's what I've got.

Beach Comic

Okay, I think I have an idea of what to make.  Something that's kind of a slice of life, Annie and Lucy (because she's the person who could be paired up with Annie and them even consider not going on a crazy adventure).

I think it'll be called "Day off no matter what."

Pulse 368

I think 3-4 (new) pages left in the flashback.  Next page is Thomas coming to terms with this, and also trying to figure out if this means Delphi was wrong and they can't change the future.

Then maybe three pages setting up what they do wrong, and then pages where they notice something isn't following their plan. 2020-02-21 10:55:47 +0000 UTC View Post

Pulse 368 WIP 2

Might be late this week, depends on how much time I have to work on this today.  Might end up being done early Friday instead.

Beach Comic Ideas?

It -seems- like "beach comic" is going to win the poll for Pulse side-comics.

What is everyone expecting out of that, and/or any ideas for what that could be like?  It clearly has to involve bathing suits, and maybe some kind of greater reason?

One idea is that they are just at the beach?  More like a sl...

Pulse 368 WIP 1

Way behind on this, but I might be able to make it up.  I've changed this around a lot, and needed to add or move things around.

I was a little worried that last page might have seemed like they were giving up on Proton too soon, so I wanted his face to crack open like some of the other victims to show it's too lat...

Which Pulse Side-Comic Should I Make?

None of these will be endless.  Some of these might have a limited maximum page count, others can be made in segments, and I'd get to an end point and then have another poll which could be more of the same idea, or a different option.

Everyday Arim 1-2 WIP

I set this so that all tiers can see this, instead of just the usual WIP tiers.

I probably should just have a poll on what exclusive comic to make, but support was voiced for an Arim comic, so I was kinda inspired and drew something.  I figure this would be kind of a slice of life story, or a day in the life of Ari...

Pulse 367

One more page to resolve this, then probably a transition page, then the page(s) that display the mistakes they made, maybe followed by some kind of big recap showing every time history was different, and some parts to remind the reader what was going on before this jump to the past.

Pulse 367 WIP 2

Not a lot of surprising changes from the last one, just things more complete.

Pulse 367 WIP 1

One more page with Proton, then maybe 3-4 more pages to wrap up the past before we get back to the present.

I usually know what's going to happen, but I don't always know how that'll translate to paper, an what I might end up cutting for time.

Past Annie will show up on the last few pages in the past.

Pulse Side-Comics

(This is kind of a big question, so I'm asking it to everyone).

If I did Pulse side-comics that were exclusive to Patreon (or exclusive for a period of time), what kind of comics would you like?

I think they would likely be slice-of-life maybe?  Kind of like little insights into the their day to day lives? &n...

Pulse 366

I did alter the last few panels back to something more like my original versions after all.  I wasn't altering what was going to happen, but the pacing, which sometimes requires you to remove things to keep things moving.

In the end, I decided to keep Proton's comments.  I figure both his powers are still grow...

Pulse 366 WIP 3

Made a few other changes.  Still haven't decided about those last two panels, it depends on how long I want the fight to last.  I originally wanted Proton to think that the Silver Dragon was holding back, unaware how strong he had gotten.  Now I wonder if should move ahead faster.

Pulse 366 WIP 2

Thinking about changing things around in the bottom panels.

Pulse 366 WIP 1

Pulse 365

First page of chapter 28 "Divergence".  We should get back to the present in this chapter.  

The point of this is to show the first person he had to capture, to show what happened that altered the future, and remind the reader about some of the times I've hinted at differences between what Thomas expected, and...

Pulse 365 WIP 2

Almost want to make the sound effect for that last panel "FEELS!".

Pulse 365 WIP 1

The first page of chapter 28 "Divergence".  We should get back to the present in this chapter, and it also explains what happened to make the future different from the visions... or what Thomas did accidentally knowing the future to alter the future.

There's a chance there will be pages that are cut and paste panel...

Pulse Chapter 3, full-size, with and without dialog

Would you believe I have 23 more of these to upload?

In a way, this is the big chapter.  This is the first idea of Pulse as a superhero.

I made this chapter intentionally to fool readers of the older Pulse comic.  In the older Pulse comic, Annie got huge breasts from an experiment to give someone else (a...

Pulse Chapter 2, full-size, with and without dialog

These weren't in color originally, but at some point I went back and colored them.  The first panel with Annie was I think the first of these pages I completed completely digitally.

If you notice on page 11, Arim, Charlotte, and Lucy all appeared.  You also see the back of Grace on page 10.

I had shown r...

Pulse 364

Last page of the chapter.

I wanted the first victim to be someone the Silver Dragon would know.

Pulse 364 WIP 3

A lot more done.  Changed some of the dialog here and there, tried to simplify Zane's dialog in panel 3.

Pulse 364 WIP 2

Not as far along as I'd like, but changed things around a little.

I added a new blank panel to help the transition from the previous page, and a panel between the bottom two panels to help the transition there.

Pulse 364 WIP 1

I'm not sure it's obvious enough yet, but the person in the last panel is the green glowing guy that the Silver Dragon was training.

I think I need to work on the transition between the last two panels.

Pulse page 363 full-size, with and without text

A lot of dialog here.

(==spoilers alter below==)

What's left to cover before we get back to the present is the first person taken over by the being, and at least also to explain why the future is different-- or what they accidentally do to make it different.

Pulse 363 WIP 3

Can't decide if Thomas should have stubble to show time has passed or not...

Pulse 363 WIP 2

I feel like this page is as much writing as drawing.
