Arkham Asylum: It Sucks.
Oct. 10th, 2012 04:41 pmespanolbotAh, Arkham Asylum. Hospital for the mentally ill, prison for supervillains and the most mainstream HP Lovecraft reference in comicbooks! Now, when people talk about Arkham, it's normally connected in some manner with how Batman is "incompetant" in some way for not stopping the Joker, Killer Croc and company from routinely escaping from the alleged SuperMax facility whenever the mood strikes them.
Well today I've decided to have a look at the numerous ways that, really, it's really the Arkham members of staff who are at fault here, not just Batman not having the time to physically watch his rogues 24/7 to ensure they don't go walk about. Plus Halloween is coming up, and this is kind of good subject matter for the season.
Let's begin!

Sad Sack and fan stuff
May. 20th, 2012 08:29 pmskjamI went to this weekend's local comic book sales convention, Springcon (held in the State Fair grandstand) and had a good time. I picked up several books and items with the purpose of creating a raffle basket for my company's United Way drive, plus some stuff for myself. (Sadly the Three Caballeros poster signed for me by Don Rosa is too big to scan.)
In the cheap bins, though, I found something that many of our younger members may be unfamiliar with.
Sad Sack, short for the military term "sad sack of shit", was created by George Baker as a pantomime comic strip during World War Two. It was quite popular, and eventually Mr. Baker licensed the property to Harvey Comics, which ran comic books based on it for decades. It did very well for Harvey, as evidenced by the franchise supporting a half-dozen titles a month.
Sadly, by 1976, when this issue of "Sad Sack and the Sarge" #117 was printed, George Baker had passed away, so only that little bit in the upper left corner of the cover is his artwork.
A couple of inside glimpses, and some unrelated pieces picked up at the convention, behind the cut.
( Ads, story, sketches )
Your thoughts and comments?

Another round of fanart pieces I wanted to share. Again, apologies if there are any repeats.

Dudes in Distress Week - Oh come on, you MUST have known I'd be doing something like this (Pt1)
Feb. 5th, 2012 12:45 pmicon_ukAs the sun sets (or rises depending on time difference) on scans_daily's "Dude in Distress Week" (and thank you to the mods for it and to everyone who contributed such great issues), I thought I'd make a couple of posts featuring my favourites... First post will be some commissions, the second post will be some classic moments from the past, and the third will be my nomination for perfect "Dude in Distress" issue. And yes, I should probably apologise in advance for the sheer Robin-centricity of them, but frankly you should know me better by now! :D If cute guys in pixie boots aren't you're thing, please feel free to skip them all.

Saturdays of Style!
Feb. 3rd, 2012 11:37 pmatom_punkHello scans_daily! Recently joined and I'm making this tentative first post about various fanmade character redesigns I've encountered.
I'm interested in hearing the community's feedback on these alternative designs. Apologies if there are repeats from other fanart postings.

Birds of Prey #5
Jan. 18th, 2012 12:38 pmaekaSo in the last issue of Birds of Prey, Batgirl joined the group, they located their cleaner boys, and before they knew it, they found themselves on the streets with Batgirl missing from the group.
...or was she really there to begin with? Surely Poison Ivy would remember a foe she's fought! And speaking of Ivy...what other deck of cards is she playing?
( 4 pages of 'what the fuck did I just read?' D: )
