<title>Issue 2</title>
<description><![CDATA[Here we go! This is the piece I originally intended to end up as the cover for issue #2. Comparing it to the piece on the previous page, I'm not sure which one I like better. But hey, it's a webcomic, so I don't have to choose (yet)! Hope you like it, in any case. It might contain a not-so-subtle hint about what to expect from the storyline.

Thanks for your support.]]></description>

<title>The Dogs Of War</title>
<description><![CDATA[wikipedia says:
[i]In English, the dogs of war is a phrase from line 270, scene 1, Act III of William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: "Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war" referring to releasing the "dog", i.e. the restraining mechanism, which has been preventing war. It is frequently incorrectly quoted as referring to canine "dogs".[/i]

This is not supposed to be the actual cover, although I made it look like one :P ...maybe it'll be an alternate cover... hm. The true cover should be up next... maybe Thursday, maybe Monday.

[b]Warhead[/b], the robot pictured here, is my attempt at coming up with a formidable adversary for Bombshell. His design is based on the robot I drew on [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Bombshell/index.php?p=563088]page 15 of issue 1[/url], but it took me a whole lot of subsequent overhauls to come up with a design which I really felt hit the mark. In my mind he should look like a walking tank, or a missile silo, but not too angular... bulky, massive and sleek at the same time. And there should also be a visual continuity between him, Bombshell and the girl I like to call Beachhead, pictured here also (and for a closer look I recommend the previous page).

Thanks for reading/commenting/supporting. [b]There's a new Bombshell pin-up for everyone who clicks on the Topwebcomics button above![/b]


REPLIES:

Legend Comics: I'm glad the design fits the name, because I came up with the name way before I had anything remotely resembling a design. Thanks a lot for your support.

fukujinzuke, legacyhero, DAJB & Wes_Nero123: Thanks a lot :P

AzuJOD: Awww... but you shouldn't judge people by their exterior. (He's far worse :P)

sux: YES :D

Nepath: Bombshell says thanks! :P

plymayer, darrellsan, Hero: Thanks!]]></description>

'nuff said.


------------------------------


*ahem* Well, maybe a bit more will have to be said: Please click on the Topwebcomics button above to see some design sketches for this character! Lots and lots were done until I finally settled on this design...


REPLIES:

sux: Exactly, and thanks a lot!

DAJB: I'm not sure anything happening on this comic will be happening in the "near future", but I sure like to hope :P

legacyhero: One of several... if that makes any numerical sense :P

khard12: Heh... sadly, she's not sporting adamantium...

AzuJOD: Satisfaction guaranteed.

melsr007: I'll take that as an expression of approval :P

Legend Comics: Thank you very much, and while there isn't too much of the actual comic yet, I hope what's there lives up to your expectations! And as for what you saw... well, how should I be able to tell you what you saw? :P

plymayer, fukujinzuke, Hero, SympleSymon, Wes_Nero123: Thanks!]]></description>

<title>Illustration by fukujinzuke</title>
<description><![CDATA[When putting together the print version of Bombshell #1, I noticed that while I had some great pinups, they were all pretty static. So I asked [url=http://user.drunkduck.com/fukujinzuke]fukujinzuke[/url] whether he'd like to shake things up a little :P

Please make sure to check out his grrrrreat comic [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/SHELL]SHELL[/url] which has numerous ties to [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Heroes_Unite]Heroes Unite[/url]. Bombshell has made guest appearances in chapters [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/SHELL/index.php?p=525272]2[/url] and [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/SHELL/index.php?p=626175]9[/url], and I hope I can repay the favor someday when including guest appearances on [i]Bombshell[/i] will start to make sense... possibly in five years' time or so? ^^;

[url=http://user.drunkduck.com/fukujinzuke]fukujinzuke[/url] also writes and draws [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Omega_Justice]Omega Justice[/url].

Please vote for [i]Bombshell[/i] by clicking on the Topwebcomics button above. In return you'll get to see a preview of the next issue's mecha villain. And my undying gratitude.

Thanks for your support!]]></description>

<title>Aria Portrait by S. A. Welland</title>
<description><![CDATA[Kicking off another round of pin-ups before we proceed to the next issue -- Out of all the numerous pieces of artwork I commissioned for Bombshell, this is one of my absolute favorites! Artwork by the very talented [url=http://kwieskita.deviantart.com]S. A. Welland[/url].

Please click on the Topwebcomics button above to see a preview of another (less girlish and more robotic) villain appearing in the next issue.

Thanks for your support!


REPLIES:

plymayer, fukujinzuke, sux, melsr007: Thanks!

MrHades: Wh-- Really? Awww, thanks! And yes, I wish it would update more often too ^^;

AzuJOD: Do you mean my original design, or this painting in particular? As for the latter, I believe it was done without any particular reference. As for the former, I channeled a whole lot of influences into Aria. Most notably: Millennium Playmate [url=http://blog.80millionmoviesfree.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/janine-habeck-200x300.jpg]Janine Habeck[/url]. Academy-Award winning actress [url=http://jollypeople.com/files/2008/07/jennifer-connelly.jpg]Jennifer Connelly[/url] (especially the way she looked in Dark City). [url=http://media.animegalleries.net/albums/GITS-SAC/kusanagi/gits-sac_kusanagi303.jpg]Major Kusanagi[/url] from Ghost In The Shell - Stand Alone Complex. Makoto Uno’s designs for the [url=http://img386.imageshack.us/img386/15/5b6356f5tb1.jpg]Witchblade[/url] anime. [url=http://www.wallpaperbase.com/wallpapers/cartoons/huntress/huntress_1.jpg]The Huntress[/url]. And probably some others which escape my mind right now. And of course I tried to make her appear Italian to some degree, according to my stereotypical image of an Italian woman.]]></description>
