I wish they still drew Morrigan with earrings.
Hell, I wish they still DREW Morrigan.

I’ve never been a Shatterstar fan. I didn’t like his look; that doofy mask, the asymmetrical costume and that damned hair! A ponytail I understand… but a ponytail AND pigtails!? Overkill. I also didn’t care for his personality. He felt flat and boring and his background felt ripped off of Longshot, another character I never loved.
As a matter of fact, even his gay love storyline with Rictor wasn’t enough to conjure up some iota of caring for me. But I told myself, “Well I’m definitely drawing Rictor… and these two are Marvel’s hottest gay couple right now. Gay comic boys are going to want both.” So, I kinda HAD to draw Shatterstar.

And guess what? Now, I think I like him! I guess I had to see him under my pen. And of course, drawing his cock (on Anti-Heroes.net> Members Gallery > Fan-Boy) also helped. So is it arrogance that the only instance of Shatterstar I care for is my own?
ROLL OVER for the nekkid version!
On Synch, Lobdell was quoted in Wizard saying, “I’m going to do something crazy and introduce a black character into comics who isn’t angry.”
I really liked all the characters in Generation X. I really appreciated the thought and effort that went into these guys’ powers, looks and backstories. Alas, the series petered off into wackness like most x-books in the 90’s, but that doesn’t change the pure strength of those character designs. Each one just seemed so much more depthy than… say… any of the Academy X kids (blegh.)

Here’s the hilarious thing though. When you Google Image Search “Synch Generation X,” SOOO many porn art pics of the kids in orgies come up. Pretty awesome, huh?
So I’m working on this drawing at work, which is really bad but fuck it, and the straight guy in the next cubicle goes:
Who’s that? Solar Power Girl?
Me: Haha. Nah, her name’s Boom Boom.
Straight Guy in Next Cubicle: Boom Boom? Why is that her name?
Me: Cuz those are bombs.
Straight Guy in Next Cubicle: Fuck yea they are!
Haha– I had to share that exchange with you guys. I always pictured Boom Boom as very sexy and thought it’d be appropriate to give her double D’s.
For my Tabitha design, I called on a bit of her original look with a dash of her 90’s look, with a pinch of Pris from Bladerunner mixed with Anime-Madonna in the opening sequence of Who’s That Girl.
Personality wise, she always reminded me of my high school barber’s girlfriend D’Neil, who was the most delicious trailer parkiest diva ever. This one’s for you D’Neil, wherever you are. Hopefully it’s not obese and bed ridden surrounded by 8 kids in your mobile home. (I’m goin’ to hell.)
Every time I look at my old fanart, the pieces I love the most are everything from my X-Men Remix collection. It combines my 2 main loves: X-Men and character design/redesign.
(Remember, Flash animated raunchy versions of each of the boys are @ Anti-Heroes.net > Members Gallery > Fanboy Gallery. What about the girls? Hey that’s sexist! How dare you think such a thing!)
I’ve expanded it by adding some figure drawings and villian portraits. In fact, here’s a new one featuring everyone’s favorite Malcolm X metaphor, Magneto.
And for the naked low-hangers version,
So now I think it’s time to get down to the nitty gritty and add some more characters to the original set of drawings. I compiled another list of 20 second-tier X-kids to add (because apparently it’s impossible for me to undertake small, simple projects.)
First up is Madrox AKA Multiple Man. Given who I am and what I do, I’m sure you guys don’t need to stretch your imaginations too far to figure out why he was always one of my favorites. As with all my versions of the male X-dudes, there is a naked version out there for you guys to discover. To the left is a preview of said image; full version at Anti-Heroes.net > Members Gallery > Fanboy Gallery.
So who should be next? I mean, I’ve already made my list but maybe you guys can influence the order in which I post em…
