I'm coming down off of this incredible, euphoric, insomniac fugue-state, and can't sleep, despite the fact that I haven't done so in almost 48 hours, now. This happened to me Saturday night, too. So I thought I'd post some of my favorite passages from THESEUS.
This particular panel features a big ol' eye.
And this page (SURPRISE!) is full of yellow-ellow-ellow-ellow.
Because of the difference in scale between combatants, I wanted the fight to take place on what is essentially an infinite plane. Every once in a while some background will show up for orientation or the sake of a composition, but I tried to keep the figures fighting in space. It was fun to do, but now I really want to do something environmentally heavy... so expect some of that soon.
Wow. Loving this. Looks great
ReplyDeleteHi Jake! I'm up in the middle of the night too. Nice work. I want to read.

Beautiful stuff once again. I love the character's mangled fall on the first panel of the second page... oh, and the heavy crumpled way he gets up in the last two panels... Okay I really just love the who page A-lot.
ReplyDeleteIt means I leave you in ANGUISH...
ReplyDeletewallowing in freakish misery forever.
Jake, these are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteSoo goood you're SO GOOD!!!!! *flails around from how good you are*
ReplyDeleteI stagger under how great these are.
ReplyDeleteI'm absolutely in man-love with what you're doing on these pages, Jake. The coloring is just brilliant. I have a fever, and the only cure is more YELLOW.
ReplyDeleteJake, this is great! my hands hurt in empathy to look at these last panels - like the feeling you get falling off your skateboard when you try to ride it over gravel on asphalt. I felt the compulsion to pick out small rocks from my palms. Keep it up!
ReplyDeletegreat work
