Unfortunately, there are bound to be some weeks when I don’t finish a full installment in this story. When that happens, I might post an Inanimate Antics. Or sometimes, I might post something cool that YOU send me (and it doesn’t have to be Our Heroes-related). If you’d like to share something you made with your fellow Our Heroes readers, such as –
a comic, illustration, graphic design, font, non-cartoony drawing, painting, sculpture, assemblage, art installation, performance piece, poem, vignette, diary entry, love letter, one-act play, skit, magic trick, hypnotic suggestion, yogic mantra, photograph, short film, puppet show, animation, video-game / card-game / board-game / word-game / sport you made up, app or other computer program, poppin’ and lockin’ routine, interpretive dance choreography, sex-tape, song, soundscape, rap, radio-play, short podcast, youtube rant, architectural plan, scientific theory, mathematical equation, philosophical notion, medical breakthrough, invention, robot, or recipe — you know, that kind of thing –
email it to me at cgarrison[at]bham.rr.com … If I like it, I just might post it here! Along with a hearty thank-you and links to your stuff, etc.
Another great installment! I really like the over-the-top “all knowing” character who conveniently can’t be of use to her team at the moment because “oh the pain, the pain of it all!” Dr. Smith style. Also, damn those are some glossy pants! I guess that’s why they keep her around when she’s not omniscient :D
I was thinking more of telekinetic comic book heroes, who are always lifting a car into the air, then after a few seconds, they’re like, “Can’t … hold on … any longer!” They have an amazing magic power, but they can’t do it for long, and it hurts? What if Superman was like that with flying?
Miss Amasia is from the distant future, from after Asia and the Americas have collided to create Amasia. So naturally, she has future powers (most of which work everyday, one hopes). Like Cupcake had 21st century powers, on that Fonzie cartoon. And of course, she’s purple. And those black-oil-looking pants are probably a genetically engineered microbe, or a light-sucking forcefield.
And yes, that IS convenient, isn’t? Maybe I should have had her be omniscient every day EXCEPT the third Thursday. That would’ve been even more convenient. I heard somebody say that people will usually forgive lucky coincidences, as long as they’re not pivotal to how the hero wins in the end.
Fritters is a level of cuteness I’m not used to on this comic. I think it’s because he reminds me so much of Felix the Cat.
Even Ultimate Victor is struck by Fritter’s cuteness.
He reminds me of Felix, as well. And, being an interdimensional traveler, it’s possible that he’s actually related to Felix by blood! But in this case, it’s not the cat who carries a magic bag. It’s Herr Doktor (you can see it in that last panel).
The Name “Ultimate Victor” cracks me up!
I’ve created a scenario in my head where his powers are sapped and he shouts “Regular Victor!? Nooo!”
You can totally use that.
Haw, good one, thanks. I’ll make a note of it!
Hey, readers. Do you use InkOutbreak.com to look at webcomics? I just added Our Heroes on there, so if you’re an InkOutbreak person, go find it by putting Our Heroes in the search bar, then add it to your Follows. That might help a few more of their users to notice that it exists there, so I’d appreciate your help on that. Thanks!
I noticed the glossy pants too. They’ve got a nice deadpan quality to them, like they’re just another obligatory part of drawing hot female superheroes.
Is that evil eye moment between Fritters and Herr Doktor a reference to “Curb Your Enthusisasm”? Larry David does that sometimes.
Funny take on their HQ – like going to your dentist’s office or some other semi-suburban business establishment.
Ha, I hadn’t thought of it, but I suppose that is kind of a Curb moment. For some reason, Herr Doktor wants to test Fritter’s mettle, but the kitty holds his own.
And yes, any superhero team worth their salt should have a waiting area and a bell on the door.
Fritters! I love that name!
(no S)
I just don’t trust that Herr Doktor…
By the way, will we ever find out more about Agent Fooky?
If we do, it will probably be years from now, in some stand alone Fritter stories where he doesn’t visit Earth. Alls I know right now is that Agent Fooky is … “gone.” ???
Thanks for reading again, readers. I’m not sure if I’ll have the next installment in a week, but I’ll give it a go.
Love it! Awesome characters, very unique stylization…
Again wonderful entertainment !!!
