Oh man it's been a while! Life has been pretty distracting!

Blargh, school is starting in a week and the end of summer is nearing :(

On the upside, The Office, How I Met Your Mother, and Pushing Daisies are returning, and this makes me v. happy :)

HMMM. SO.

Remember that one zombie comic that I talk about so seldom that I whenever I bring it up I start with "Remember that one zombie comic" ?

Well, for the past however long I have been saying to myself. Self, I really want to make that ridiculous, self indulgent zombie comic, but this whole plot thing is being a real skank ho. Also, I am kindof lazy.

Then earlier today my other self was all, Screw plot! Let's draw someone headbutting a zombie!

And I was like OKAY!





Still debating on using purples for blacks. I think I'd have to color the page as a whole to get a feel for it. I think I might nix it. Or make the purple darker. Or just make the black black and use purple for the highlights.

Blargh, I hate coloring a lot.

Plus one random doodle. Perhaps later I will put up character sheets.





So I was thinking about Dr. Horrible, and how after watching it a couple more times I was feeling less and less sorry for Billy. I mean his story is tragic and I'm still sympathetic, but at the same time his whole downfall is all because of his selfish and poor decisions. Which leads us to the thing that bugs me the most about Billy. I mean he talks about wanting to be with Penny and how much he loves her, but then he gets his chance to actually talk to her (and not stalk her from the bushes while taking photos) and blows it off to be Doctor Horrible. While saying his reason for being Dr. Horrible is for social change and to get Penny to notice him. But then, he blows his chance at doing both by ignoring Penny and her petition? Clearly the things he's saying aren't really on par with what he wants. It seems to me he's being selfish and petty like all the people he hates and wants to change. But he does have second thoughts, which in the grand scheme of things don't matter much, but they do let me see a possible happy ending.

See I think the cool thing about Dr. Horrible is that I can see it going both ways, I mean I'm a fan of good tragic storyarcs but I also really like happy endings, and with Dr. Horrible, I can imagine a cliched happy ending somehow involving Penny saving him with love and frozen yogurt, teaching him the power of good and awesome while still being able to just as easily imagine a creepy tragic Dr. Horrible mad scientist ruling the world and killing people because he hates the world ending.

And also the Penny dumps Captain Hammer and Billy and goes off and does her own thing happy ending because omg Penny = most awesome.

Damnit Dr. Horrible, you make me think much more than I should about a 45 minute web show.


Billy and Penny being cute. Uhm. They are sitting on the folding clothes table. Or, they would be, had I not been too lazy to draw it



Also, ever since watching Dr. Horrible, I have been noticing a lot of people being in love with Joss Whedon. I am embarrassed to say that I did not really know who he was until I did a little research. I did not know he wrote Toy Story! So because of this I started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer on hulu. I'm on the fifth episode of season one and so far it is ridiculous 90's vampire fun.

Is there anything I should be warned about? Like a stop watching after season x because x happens and you will be sorry kindof thing? Because I mean, there are seven seasons, and if tv has taught me anything it's given enough running time shows can get pretty bad.
