So, I’m going to try something a little different with the BONUS material. It might not always be THIS every Friday, but our new porch cat, Random, inspired the idea for some Random doodling. In this premier gag, it showcases the JOY of usually being the first one downstairs in the morning, being beset on all sides by cats meowing for food.
Lucipurr… however… tends to be in the basement with Rick, so I get to him right after these two vultures.
Another fun aspect of these Doodles is that they are drawn traditionally with ink and paper, and even hand-lettered! (Zod help us all!)
I have been wanting to have a reason to try a Jack Kirby homage piece FOREVER, but couldn't come up with a valid concept to work a strip around. Getting loopy off of NyQuil gave me the inspiration to really have fun with Kirby's trippy, cosmic goodness.
This idea DEMANDED color, for obvious reasons, and trying to mimic both the color style of the 60s and 70s, along with the look of newsprint printing was a LOT of fun to figure out.
Now, on FRIDAY there will be an extra special... variation... on some of this art on my PATREON! Something extra groovy! ;)
