Good Morning Everyone!
The auto update feature is a little wonky, it may have overwritten what Matt had written at like 12am… if you were lucky enough, you may have caught a little preview of a working image. If you didn’t… BRONTOSAURUS!!!
Have a happy Tuesday!
-Don

…So about that blog, my only back copy was here at work , lesson learned.
The Bar of History’s Greatest Villains is a setting I have plans to get back to on occasion. It’s an undisclosed location that’s definitely not in Boston where historical, movie/television, and comic book villains can come together and discuss their woes and triumphs.
Just to clear up any confusion the fancy chap in the center there is Jack the Ripper. Modern crime solving techniques have been rough on the hooker stabbin’ trade. I wanted to include an actual “historical” villain in the strip, but the only other really physically recognizable villain I could think of was Ghenghis Khan. But I thought there was no way they’d let him into the bar on a skate board, with bat in hand, with Bill and Ted standing behind him (of course I also thought of Hitler but didn’t want the comic to degenerate to internet puss so quickly). And if you don’t recognize Anthony Perkins in a dress when you see him, you have some movie homework to do.

Lolz at Freddy’s new line
Shhh you’re not supposed to have seen it yet.
and now nicks gonna get nerdy! Have you seen /heard of the musical Assassins its about the men and women who attempted to assassinate Presidents of the United States cuz they too hang out in a bar.
Nick, I have not. Please provide links to said tomfoolery.
At first glance I thought the guy in the center was Moriarty. The effect of the funny was still great.
Smith, I’m glad it worked. I was worried that he might need a mustache so that even if people didn’t get it he seemed like a generic ‘tying woman to railroad track’ type villain. But in the end I’m glad we went with just a monocle. Moriarty would have been good to though.
You spelled “marathon” wrong. Fire your editor!
You’re ruining the magic for the spelling challenged they would have never known!!! Good eye, and thanks for the comment.
Hahaha! Pretty funny! I like seeing these guys hangin’ together. Nice art, too.
Love the potential with the villian bar. Also I laughed even harder the 2nd time on Freddy’s 2nd line.
