Pestilence - Page 7
Latest update and as always your previous comments have all been responded to.
This page introduces the second of the 4 main characters in this comic (the first being Fearless)
I thought the last page of Fearless ended up a little bit glossy and looked more like a page from Energize. So i have made extra effort to make sure this one appears darker and grittier. It's important for the mood of this comic to work that it remains dark and grainy.
Anyway, thanks in advance for those that will read and comment and I hope you enjoy.

Some thanks... @Braindonor: Exactly. If you couldnââ¬â¢t see his eyes it would be hard to tell. But also, the sparks arenââ¬â¢t that bright and itââ¬â¢s not a UV light. Thanks for commenting @MEDUSA: Cheers! @freeway: Thanks very much! I use photoshop CS2 @Fitz: Thanks Fitz! Im glad you like the dialogue. I want to make sure that they have brother-like banter @aschroeder: Noted. Thanks @man in black: Thanks! @QSAMA: Thanks! I think the next costume is much better! @SympleSymon: I wonââ¬â¢t be using that font much so it should be cool. Thanks! @PowerMan X: Thanks! @Abt_Nihil: Thanks very much! I was happy with that picture @literacysuks1: Thanks! @DAJB: Tha nks! @Matalicman: Thanks!

You'd think that super-sensitive vampire eyes would need some kind of goggles to protect them from the light of that electric arc. On the other hand showing that he's a vampire was the point of the whole page. P.S. everybody sure is grouchy.

i love the mood of your comic-very nice. Great colouring too nice crisp sharp pictures. What graphic software do you use?
Fitz at 10:18AM, Feb. 6, 2008
Yeah I had the exact same impression - although the previous page maintained the cool purple/red/gray color theme that makes it different from Energize. And I loved that page, anyway. But your effort on this page shows. And I guessed he was a vampire, too :) I like the chemistry between the two, especially the humor ("You can drop the stupid voice" - LOL!).

Midge: Exactly right. The skin tone and eyes mean that his brother is a vampire...

nice angle with the brother being a techno whiz...from his eyes he looks to be a vampire as well, amirite?

The technowiz brother in this comic reminded me of the vampire in the last one, at least in hair style. At first I thought Fearless had put the vampire to work, and I was wondering if vampires grew stubble! *Grin* Make sure your major characters are different in hair style, okay?

ahhh ha costume change already? im game...and yea this one does feel a bt grittier than the last one

The first panel is great, like you already know...but whereas DAJB says the red-on-black is hard to read, I actually found it harder to read the first caption, and it was in regular black-on-white! No kidding... But, really, awesome page - love the little brother's busy-pose in the first panel.

Looks cool as always Nepath!

His brother's pose in panel 1 looks great - some of the best "acting" in a comic I've seen. And don't worry, it looks VERY dark and gritty ;-)

Nice work. That red font on the black balloons is difficult to read but otherwise it's all cool!
Matalicman at 10:52PM, Feb. 1, 2008
I really,REALLY,like the first panel!
