“And here's the final page of the Captain Perfect intro. I hope you guys enjoy the character as much as I do. In BGH he started off as kind of a joke: a little jab at my very real big brother, but over time I started to love the character as much as the real thing. My hope is his attitude will come off as endearing to the reader as it is frustrating to the other characters.
”As for SuperpowerGirl, you'll notice she's sporting a brand new costume. Both she and Captain Perfect have new never-before-seen costumes debuting in CrossoverKill, and this is no coincidence. This may give you some clue as to how this story relates to Bad Guy High, and why it was SuperpowerGirl who answered Captain Perfect's call for help and not his own brother…."
Two more names for the Gang are revealed. Chant is the magic-wielder, Night Carver is the crazy one with the blades, and ‘Bitten (not his full name) is the bear. But he’s not JUST a bear.
One thing I love about RedDeath is that in just three pages he captures Captain Perfect's cocky, confident personality. He'll be the Indiana Jones of the group.
Next week, we cut to yet another reality, and Energize encounters other members of the Doppelganger Gang.
Well, you're certainly entitled to your opinion, coolclay---which is the exact opposite of Algeya's, the creator of Pilli Adventures, and personally I think Dan is one of the best artists we have here. Still, we'll have a variety of artistic styles here, so hopefully you'll see something you like...
We'll look forward to when you post your comic, to show how it should be done.
I acctualy think that RedDeath's artstyle makes Pilli and Paco look Ugly as S***. That is why i don't read BadGuyHigh because i can't tolerate the art.
i wou;dn't worry about the schedule, i won't be able to read it for the next eight months or so. as long as you archive it all the important readers will be able to read it.
can't say i am too impressed with the custume of superpowergirl, although that is completely the issue of the moniter i am using, it is so dark i can't see what i am typing.
[quote=alschroeder]...but still, a lot of people might miss it if we update on Thanksgiving.[/quote]Well, not really *miss*. This is the internet, after all, and it's archived. But there's a good chance that at least half our readers might be patting their bellies and watching football (the boring version of rugby for you international readers) while Drunk Duck has Crossoverlord marked for a new update.
Actually, we just had a little schedule snafu involving Crossoverkill.com, which I run. Al and I had some miscommunication a week or two ago about the schedule. Oops. Nothing catastrophic, but we would have been out of sync for a couple weeks otherwise unless one of us fixed our pending archives.
Change in plans: we'll just do one update next week, with the first Energize strip, and then two updates the following week, and do at least two a week for the remainder of the year. I know Thanksgiving only affects our American readers, but still, a lot of people might miss it if we update on Thanksgiving.
Great page, Dan! I have to agree with Al, you so effortlessly introduce Captain Perfect in a flurry of action and mayhem - excellent storytelling and art.
BTW, Superpowergirl's first appearance is [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Bad_Guy_High/index.php?p=26819]here[/url], I believe, here's her [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Bad_Guy_High/index.php?p=27463]origin[/url]origin[/url] and a memorable place where Captain Perfect and SuperPowerGirl appeared together (with many many others) is [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Bad_Guy_High/index.php?p=67938]here[/url].
Next week there will be TWO updates---Tuesday and Thursday--and another update the following Tuesday.
December, we're going to double up, do at least twice a week, maybe more....
And January? There will be a LOT of updates.
I called it. Yay! Cookie?
I am loving the whole thing so far, but will go crazy with the once-a-week schedule. The anticipation is maddening (though I understand the reasoning).

Rereading this page I notice a truly awful pun in panel two. I don't know how I missed that the first time.

Yikes @coolclaytony, that's kind of harsh.

Oops again. I meant to say update to CrossoverKILL. Not Crossoverlord. Wow, I'm so used to saying that.
