Maybe it didn't happen that way. Maybe his powers lay dormant until adolescence, & then, amidst growing anti-mutant rhetoric, AwPhuch began attending a "school for the gifted" run by one Charles Xavier &--oh, wait, Kitty Pride was girl.

But then, so was Cat Woman.

it should be noted that if i ever get an appearance in the comic, my avatar works pretty well, except that I have no beard.......
for background info, I sell swords and knives for a living, often at conventions, so I have to deal with mall ninjas all the time- I have answered the question "which one of these (pointing at the $20.00 katana) would you recommend for home defense?" 126 times- yes, i counted- FYI the standard answer for the shop is "none, they make this thing called a gun- barring that a few years of good martial arts instruction, and one of these functional swords over here that your mcwalmart job and crack habit prevents you from buying...." and how I love the guy that wants a sword because he cannot legaly own a gun after his conviction...... The worst is probably the anime idiots that insist on holding the katana blade down, cause that is how they learned, and it works better.....( we used to keep foam swords behind the counter to show them why this is dumb, now I just settle for dying a little inside as it takes less effort than using small enough words for them to understand)... sadly, my life makes me comedy gold for this forum.......

Was wondering what you all thought of the new style? Should I keep it going, or just go back to the old style, with color? Its hard to do the new style with color, as it takes much longer to draw and ink, and would be about four times the amount of time spent on the old way if I colored it. Though I did get the suggestion to do a special colored new-style episodes on the weekends.

Thoughts?

I really like the new style… but I like the old style a little better. And I dug the floating heads & hands.

Maybe mix it up at your discretion? This is your tea party, after all.

You Could always draw it on "Paint" which is a program that comes with your computer.

Simple and easy, but some people are really good at drawing on a computer, some aren't.

Tried doing it in MSPaint, and it kinda worked. I just like the looser look and feel of fiberbrush on paper by hand. Would be a ton better if I had a tablet to use, but no budget for that so far.

as to the style question, either one works for me, and as you seem to have a lot of fans, clamoring for more, I say go with the old style, and save yourself the headache.... but you is the artist, so go with your feelings.......either way looks good.... also, color enhances stuff, but i enjoyed the black and white quite a bit as well..... ps- I have a buddy that uses a tablet for work, and he got one from a lower cost company that apparently really works well- I will try to get price and brand out of him soon....
