Crisis
Posted September 1, 2012 at 2:01 am
A week from Monday, on September 10, I will have been doing webcomics for fifteen years. �Dumbing of Age�will also be celebrating its second birthday! �To celebrate this milestone, I have�put together a limited poster!�� Suffice to say, it's the busiest thing I have ever drawn in my life. A while ago,�Joel Watson�was all, �hey, you should do a parody of Superboy Prime punching the universe and all the pieces scattering into the Walkyverse and the Dumbiverse. �That'd be a poster you can do. �And it was a fine idea, but it wasn't "all-encompassing work of horror" enough for me. �I needed something that would take me a month to complete. �And so I've parodied a different, better crisis instead. [caption id="" align="alignright" width="240"] CLICK THIS FOR ANIMATED GIFNESS (creacted by MiracleIsYou on Tumblr)[/caption] As a result, every character who's ever appeared in one of my webcomics is in this thing. �I poured through my own archives day by day, grabbing folks to squeeze in here. �Some of them are pretty in your face. �Some may be less obvious, but still pretty easy to find. �Some may be essentially unrecognizable mostly-obscured heads in the background. �But they're all here. �There's the Ball State girl Joe introduced to Danny in 1997. �There's every member of SEMME. �There's every employee Shortpacked! ever had, including Scrubs� cast doppelgangers. There's a floating, pooping butt. �There's a legion of alternate universe kids from the future. �There's crossover characters from Fans! and Melonpool and others. �And there's both Walkyverse and Dumbiverse versions of everybody. �(You can probably tell where the split in the composition takes place.) It's an 11"x17" slab of cardstock gloss craziness, and there's only 50�100 of them. �I'll number and autograph them all. �If you want one,�here it is in the store. UPDATE: I woke up this morning to find I'd sold seventy of my fifty posters, so, uh, I just ordered a second 50. UPDATE AGAIN: They're gone! �Sold out in 23.5 hours. �Woof!
