theRedDeath: “Hello everybody! Been a while since I've done a page. I'm sad to say I've kind of ”fallen off the horse“ with my comic drawing. All this real-life nonsense is keeping me pretty busy. So I apologize if today's page seems a little rusty.
You can thank/blame Stephen for this sequence. We planned on a romance blooming between CP and Hoodoo for a while, but it was his idea to do this scene here. When he came to me with the idea that the two would do a ”Dirty Dancing“ inspired dance sequence I thought he was a mad man.
So of course I had to draw it, I'm a glutton for punishment. Though I'm extremely amused by CP going full-on Swayze here. It suits him pretty well.”
@Dragonfire: an understandable question, however even heroes still need a bit of downtime and, in terms of their arrival at the Knight's bunker, we are still within a 24 hour time frame here (always a bit hard to judge with a comic updating twice a week) coming out of two/three battles so they need to rest up before the action starts again... and in the new year it's really going to start again!
Great page, Red Death, even better than I dared hope. The idea behind "Dirty Dancing" was to give Hoodoo an interest beyond her magic... something with physical and romantic connotations... so I went for something waaay outside my comfort zone and knowledge base... dancing! I've never seen Dirty Dancing so watched a climactic scene on YouTube and copied down some poses from that sequence which I pushed at the sceptical Red Death, he's done an awesome job with it too! NEXT UPDATE - we're taking the next week off, Crossoverkill, and the conclusion of this scene, will return on the first Tuesday of 2012 - Happy New Year and thans for reading, y'all!

Great page, both in concept and design. The last pic of Perfect in the second panel reminds me of Robert Hays disco dancing in Airplane!

Okay, whatever happened to fighting the Doppleganger gang and saving Death?

I bet somebody will interrupt them, possibly Fusion.

Still not convinced that it is Hoodoo. :)
