Sad that I missed this until now Fox. I was helping to extricate a neighbor whose car got plowed in up to the windows
last night and apparently the trial of some formerly prominent person had most of the country glued to their screens today.
That said oooh where to begin? Guess I'll do a running thought commentary in panel order and try to keep it brief?
Favorite. Page. Thus. Far.
Panel#1:
Glass looks great with the variety of markers at your disposal.
The IMP has a new color scheme and I approve. It's not the Orange
from page one but it reads better than the other ½ dozen colors since IMO.
Panel#2:
A quick shot of Joe and off we go. Lash game is strong.
Panel#3:
You do "half" emotions really well. I love her ½ smile when she first notices Brahn and DD.
This is now my second favorite of all the Nyx faces I've seen drawn so far.
Also I now want POWER COFFEE to be a thing in my life.
Panel#4:
I love this panel!!! Brahn looks great in your style and I'm quite sure DD has made that expression before on more than one occasion.
I like to think that because she is an Archer by nature she always keeps one eye on her target even if the projectiles
are a +1 facepalm and a derisive comment. Love the marble texture and fluting FTW!
Thought the City Rep was more Raven haired than Brunette?
Panel#5:
Bwhahahahaha! Not at all what I expected but hilarious none the less.
Wait do we have Monkey Controllers now??? Simian annoyance is well drawn (and
the monkey looks good too
). Perspective win awarded for stairs (ruler or free-hand I wonder).
Panel#6:
Claudia Hopeshot cameo! Speaking to a Natural contact makes sense.
Susan Davies really under dresses for a division called E.L.I.T.E. There's a lot of
green in this scene, Seen2BeGreen should be happy. Door hinges make a brief cameo!
Panel#7: And they're gone!
Love the wood grain texture though.
It's a good thing the game uses Doric columns
rather than Ionic amirite??? I mean the volutes alone...
Closing thoughts:
I appreciate the higher scan resolution in recent pages. Thanks!
Monkey in a tutu with a gun lol! Nowhere gets weirder faster than Paragon City...
truth although Austin Texas might take exception to that remark.
I love the "hugs and kisses" frieze!
I'm not sure if it was intended as an Easter Egg or just a pattern simplification but I feel rewarded for having spotted it.

I know she doesn't post that often of late but Darth Delicious is here too.

As for not finding anything from me... **notices Ennvee's avatar** ahem.
Also before @Caemgen gets his hopes up I think it's an ex's art and not something racy.
Speak of the Diabhal, what's Fenian doing in a painting with General Knowledge?
Kidding aside it's good to see you posting again too Ennvee.

Phew!
What would one even do with such a slew of tutu's? I haven't a clue. Maybe ask the Tsoo?
In lieu of something new it would ruin the view and be just a few too many to do, even for you.
Also yay progress... coo-koo-ca-chew.

I think this is my favorite but when you return Healix
you can have a high rez of any or all of them if you like.
I threw in one with Healing Aura fx.
Heck there's enough of them for you to
make one of those repetitive pop art displays.

Agreed. Here are a couple other variations.

Unfortunately Healix appears to be AFK since about Nov. so it may be a while
before she receives this but I'll just say I hope all is well and I appreciate
all that you do to help new and returning players feel welcome.
Thanks Healix and cheers!
This was my first go at colors but there is more I want to do yet. I thickened her body too as she looked a bit lanky.
I'm not really loving the background either so I'll probably try a few variations later as they only take a few minutes to make.

Hmmm a red side comic, interesting.
Is this an existing arc or something you are writing?
Oh and welcome to the best part of the forums Eon Watcher.

ummm Scalpus? Stypel?
Bigby's +2 Hand-Stabbing Back Biter Pen?
Also, just speaking for myself here, I like surrealism. Horror... not so much but hey the quality
of the work is unmistakable even if the content gives me the heebie-jeebies.
That first pic looks like something straight out of Shadowrun's Universal Brotherhood
(insect shamans going around possessing people with bug spirits until
their bodies transformed into human sized insects).

Sucker eh?
You all heard him, he said "however you see fit," GET HIM FOX!
I vote for him using superspeed and ending up face down in one of the plaza
pools or stuck to the underside of the Atlas statue's foot? So many fun possibilities.
How about getting slapped by the Pay2Win vendor for claiming her prices are outrageous?
Lost a bet and has to wear a giant chicken costume to promote Up and Away Burger's
chicken sandwich and 2 piece nugget meal (for a limited time just 4.99k influ!)?
Dangling by his cape hung up on one of the AP statues outstretched hands?

Update: So @battlewraith gave me some good advice back on page two
for my drawing of @Healix so bearing what he said in mind I did more work
on it reducing the eyes and lips to more proportional dimensions and worked in my
own mental note to flatten her ears back and put them under the mask material like Spidey.
I'm already doing some more blending and detail work on her body but here's where I am at now.
Thanks for the fresh pair of eyes and constructive criticism BW. It's much appreciated.
She's still very smiley looking but I think we're safely out of Joker territory.

Yeah, for about 5 seconds... Hero!
Thought so!
I am not in the google ecosystem so no youtube account here maybe someone else can?
@ToxinFox yeah sorry I should've been more specific. I don't have any characters here on homecoming yet I only just got here a few days ago by following a link Christopher left (THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT!) on DA. I am so happy to see the game back but I honestly don't know where to start. Do I make all new heroes? Do I try and remake the old ones? Do I even remember the old ones?
For now I am just lurking about the forums finding my way about. Sorry I don't have anything for your comic right now.
Oh yeah?!? Well... actually you're right that place leaks villains like a sieve.
Somebody should really plug up all those escape routes.
YOU'RE WELCOME FOR ME DOING THAT!
Seriously if anyone knows how to find LizzieLizzie go poke
at her and let her know the game is back if she doesn't already know.
No worries I try to tell everyone and I leave messages everywhere I see CoH artwork.
I know there is a much bigger art community that love this game than are here right now.
I at least want them to know this forum section exists. I played for years before I learned of it.
As for where to start, if you meant literally, like Fox says you got the slots. Go forth and do all of the above.
If you meant it in a "trying to start all over again is overwhelming" kind of way just shoot me a DA note or PM.
I am always happy to help new and returning players get their bearings back. I have several level one's already made so
I can go tool around Atlas, run some starter missions and whatnot. Don't be afraid to ask questions either, the community here
remains one of the most helpful. I've got starter influ to help get your roster going too, just pay it forward when you get more situated.

Those'll work just fine! And thank you for giving me some (reasonable, sane) ideas for what they're up to. No one wants me to get creative. (I mean, unless you do.)
And @Seen2BeGreen , if you would like Captain Yarrrr, drop me a screenshot or some art in here, and let me know what their business in City Hall is.
Great!
You're welcome.
I mean it's really up to you if you have something different in mind I just wanted to give you
some idea about the character's personalities. Brahn could just as easily be showing off in some way over
by Ms. Liberty if you need an outdoor shot rather than indoor. Xllusya does have a post in the SYAB thread if that helps.
I believe that comment was for me, Yarr is not her character it is the obscure reference I was making.
On 1/24/2021 at 2:34 PM, Seen2BeGreen said:We'll see about that... Hero!
((actually I have mostly heroes, with a few villainous ne'er do wells sprinkled in))
Captain Yarrrr?
and that is some pretty pretty art of your heroes Christopher!
I love this comic @ToxinFox keep it up!
The only thing you'll be seeing is the inside of the Zig... Villain!
Lol yep it is a Captain Yarrrr reference, nice! It was a really short lived series but I thought it was quite funny and
who knows maybe she'll pick it up again now that we're back. If anyone has a YouTube account go holler
at her that Christopher Robin says the game is back and we need more tQoK episodes would ya.
There is a @lizzieizzie account here which is only 1 letter away from her YT (LizzieLizzie).
Thanks! I should give credit where due, the 2 first images are screenshots (obvi), the other two of Brahn
were drawn by me and the last was colored by Bobby Aquitania (RIP). The middle Xllusya
is by the talented Wernope and the last is by our very own Darth Delicious.
She's hiding around here somewhere and I am honestly amazed, being that she is such a fan
of this comic, she hasn't put her eponymous hero DD up to be a background character. I'll go poke her again.

Or there might be Angel Tina (probably in the outfit seen here and here) discussing her SG. Given the group's silly name and her relative lack of responsibility, the clerk is probably somewhat annoyed.
Nice designs @Corlagon, I like Angel Tina's look.

Not if I have anything to say about it Villain!
Sure there are rumors of a few Hellions inside City Hall doing some "translating
and stuff" for Azuria but I assure you they are likely just that, rumors.
(yes I am aware this is an obscure reference for most and an
actual current in game bug... I regret nothing
).

Sure I would love to be a cameo.
All of my characters are heroes but the most well known would
be most likely be either Brahn Fuhrnos or Xllusya.
My eponymous Christopher Robin, hero name Brahn Fuhrnos, is a Fire/SS/"Regen" tank, show off and natural quipster.
He would most likely be in City Hall chatting up City Rep. Something like asking her "Are you sure I don't
need a permit for these guns?" while doing the flex emote. Screenshot and art of him below.
Xllusya my goddess of Light and Illusion, an Ill/Emp defender, is rather stoic and not accustomed to the ways of mortal bureaucracy.
She would most likely be telling the SG registrar that it is unreasonable for her to have to pay a "pet tax" since
her "pets" are literally figments of her imagination. That or asking how exactly does one pay
for things with "influence and prestige?" In game screenshot and artz below.
Click images for larger versions, other heroes available if these are not suitable for your purposes.

Alright, count me in. I've been building custom computers since 2000.
Here is a shot of my current City of Heroes gaming rig "The Bone Dragon."
I can dig out the current specs and post more images/backstory later if there's interest.
Also, for those familiar, that is indeed Brahn Fuhrnos my Fire/SS/"Regen" tank in Croatoa.

Imminent backstory implied!
Favorite details:
1. The underlit fire escape ladder.
2. What color is red brick at night? That color.3. Despite earlier claims of bad continuity the most important
detail is present... that of course being the pizza contains pineapple.
I do have one nit to pick though, the door chain as you have it drawn without a
closed end would slide right out of the locking slot when someone tried to open the door.
Not the best deterrent but hey maybe they gave her the apartment with the defective lock because
she's a hero and won't need it? Or maybe the superintendent is secretly a Skull?!??! Dun Da Duuuuuuuh!!!!!!
