For those of you wondering what it’s like to work for the Action Age of Comics, Woman of ACTION‘s Chris Piers has the answer:
On a related note, I have yet to decide whether Piers should be classified as Threat or Menace.
In either case, why not head over to the Action Age today for some of Piers’s other work–specifically, some concept and design sketches for our upcoming pop-spy adventure comic, Woman of ACTION! Just click the image above and you’ll see girls, guns, and quite possibly the sweetest turtleneck sweater in comic book history!
Who says this isn’t the Action Age of Comics?!
A mall caricature artist that JJJ-isizes people. Brilliant!
According to Wikipedia, JJJ is quoted as saying:
“Even the real heroes can’t keep it up all the time.”
I can only imagine the research that went into that statement.
So, just like how you treat your blog commenters. Sir.
“PAAAAARKER!!!”
Ha! Nice plug. I will now totally read that.
Threat or menace… There is a subtle distinction.
This Chris person is overstating the specificity of your requests. No one can deny that you accept bears being kicked in their own faces.
That’s pretty much how I imagine your inner monologue going every day.
It’s hard to build up a decent moustache when you get so many face-kicks.
However, once you do have the moustache, it acts as a kind of protective shield against further face-kicks.
I vote Menace.
That is a scarily accurate rendition of what would happen if Sims and JJJ wound up in some melding machine together through a Serious of Hilarious Misadventures.
Think positively, Chris. All of the cool comic book characters have premature gray temples.
Oh, and Hal Jordan.
Can’t wait to see what A.C.T.I.O.N. stands for.
Man that takes forever to type.
Aren’t “bears kicking faces” the standard that all great literary works are held up to?
I’m amused that my quick “caricature” is what you’ve used as “content.”
Um… I’m hoping that’s just a cigar… otherwise, this is all the more frightening since that rant would be the mellow, toned-down version.
When are you actually going to, you know, write actual content again?
Chris Piers is seriously good. Like, really good to the point that I might actually read this thing DESPITE it being written by you.
“I WANT PICTURES! PICTURES OF GOAT C!”
Seriously, Chris. Get off Andy’s mom and make some content!
Chris will write actual content when people stop being dicks in his comment section.
So never.
DEAR MR. SEAMS:
PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FREE CONTENT THAT IS MORE TO MY LIKING, OR I WILL TAKE MY “BUSINESS” (SO TO SPEAK) ELSEWHERE.
ALSO, PLEASE PROVIDE FREE CANDY, OR ELSE WE’LL KNOW YOU REALLY DON’T LOVE US.
YRS. – M.
Thank you Chris Piers. You speak for those who cannot speak.
BACK TO WORK, SHACKLES.
Do you know how many “‘Chris Sims as JJJ’ getting punched” drawings I have to weed out before I get to real “Hitler Getting Punched” sketches?
None.
This saddens me.
But new Action Age product EASES THE PAIN.
aw jeez chief! I was just funnin’ ya! I’ll get back to working the beat in a jif boss!
I imagine, if they ever Ultimatize the Ultimate universe, this is what edgy, young JJJ will look like.
Also, EVERY character will be based on Sam Jackson. “Parker, get those motherfuckin’ PICTURES on my motherfuckin’ DESK!”
Does this mean Chris has been elected Mayor of the Action Age?
Because if not, that is totally going to be the title of my first webcomic.
If Chris is Mayor of the Action Age, I hope he wears a sash that says “Mayor” at all times.
