Punisher by Dan Greenwald
Here it is. The final Project Basement drawing. It's by Dan Greenwald, co-host of Sequential Underground podcast and the force behind the Comic Book Pitt podcast. Also, he's the creator of the comics Blue Wraith and Spacebase 01, among others.
As for this drawing, well I think it's very fitting for the final PB sketch. It's simple, it's fun, and it has personality. I don't know if it's a Bad Good Guy or a Good Bad Guy... what I do know it that it's just plain good.
NEXT: Nothing! Project Basement is over. Duh.
Green Lantern by Shawn Atkins
Hmmm... Bad Good Guy? More like Jerk Good Guy... or maybe even Asshole Good Guy. Either way, this drawing by Shawn is gorgeous and it screamed "feature me on Project Basement" when I first saw it, so I don't care how bad Hal is!!!
Also, you can listen to Shawn and I bullshit about what comics creators deserve on the latest episode of Sequential Underground.
NEXT: The FINAL Project Basement... Punisher by Dan Greenwald.
Red Skull by Dan Greenwald
Here comes a new Good Bad Guy! Dan Greenwald, creator of the Comic Book Pitt podcast and co-host of Sequential Underground, delivers this hilariously patriotic Red Skull.
And it's surprisingly well-timed. It maybe not be the 4th of July... but it is Veteran's Day today! And not just that... Dan also celebrated his birthday this week!!! SOOO much serendipity it hurts.
NEXT: I'll finally draw something. And then we've got another awesome sketch by Dan!
Sexy Spider-Man by Chris Maverick
Naughty Good Guys? Well, that's not exactly what we're going for with this theme... but I think it's best if I let the artist put it in his own words. Take it away, Mav!
The funny thing here is that I wasn't actually *trying* to draw something naughty. I was at PIX (The Pittsburgh Indycomic eXpo) and decided to do some sketching. I thought maybe it would be cute doing a nice little picture of Spidey and MaryJane (see, in my reality, they're still married, because I hate retcons... as such don't even get me started on DC's New 52). I thought it would be a nice cute and touching and romantic moment. And then I chose to fade the shot out without showing their hands. Yep, that was a problem right there. The neat thing about artistic composition is it's just as much about what you DON'T see as what you do.
NEXT: I haven't drawn it yet... but goddamn it, it's my turn!!! Or maybe just more awesome sketches by Dan Greenwald.
Juggernaut by Scott Hedlund
The creator of our Good Bad Guys theme joins the fray! That's right -- the unstoppable Scott Hedlund is stopping by the Basement to check in on us and make sure we're doing it right.
Here's what he has to say about his drawing:
Everyone has a bad day and sometimes you just need a hug. But when you string a series of bad days together, you should expect a Juggernaut-sized hug! Enter: the Huggernaut! Equipped with an unstoppable need to give you a squeeze! His Crimson Bands reflect the tender core of this often misunderstood behemoth. Can anything stop the Huggernaut? How about some brotherly love?
Hehehe good one! Before we close out for today, I gotta send a mega huge THX to Scott for helping to revive Project Basement. I was ready to let this feature die a dishonorable death, but Scott saved the day and breathed some life back into it with his theme suggestion.
NEXT: Project Basement takes a week off while I head to the New York Comic Con. But we'll be back on in two weeks with a surprise!
Daredevil by Jason Bender
Jason Bender, come on down!!! He's new to the Basement, and he's brought a Bad Good Guy with him.
For those of you who don't know, Daredevil is Catholic. And he's not just religious... HIS MOTHER WAS A NUN. Can you guess her name? C'mon, just one guess. I'll give you a hint -- it's a Maggie.
So, yeah. That's makes this Daredevil pretty goddamn bad.
NEXT: Scott Hedlund, the creator of our v4 theme, joins the party!
Superman by Shawn Atkins
Today is a special day for Shawn Atkins. It's his final day as a bachelor!!! That's right -- he's getting married tomorrow. However, as of a few weeks ago, Superman is a bachelor again. So I guess the guys are just trading places.
BUT... the Superman you see here isn't your average hero, reboot or not. In fact, he's a Bad Good Guy. I mean, the real Superman would never deep fry a panda with his heat vision, right?
NEXT: A crisis of faith, courtesy of Jason Bender!
Rhino by Eric Shonborn
Eric Shonborn enters the basement!!! And he's brought kickass a Good Bad Guy version of the Rhino with him. Actually, kickass is wrong... it's more like so-cute-that-your-eyeballs-wanna-pop-out-and-give-you-a-hug!
You can get more Eric on his self-titled website, his comics art collective Ok, PANIC!, or on the Gutter Trash podcast.
NEXT: As Shawn Atkins approaches marital bliss, he takes a break to stop by and give us something super!!!
Swamp Thing by Byron Winton
Byron "Badass Masta Blasta Put-Your-Leg-In-A-Cast" Winton is back in the Basement! And for PBv4, he's delivering an organic sketch of a natural man -- a Bad Good Guy version of Swamp Thing!!!
Here's what B-Ron has to say about it:
Ol' Moss-Face has a vice and it's sucking down the incinerated leaf. Running down ecological criminals is a tough job. A rescue from the gaping maw of a bayou gator is a laborious feat. Swimming deep dark murky waters bogs him down. Alec Holland or Swamp Thing, as he's come to be known, just wants to kick back and puff a little weed under a mighty Cypress. A stress release is as close as a pluck from a nearby bush or a twist of a sprig from himself. Mild, smooth, and earthy.
I'm SOLD!!! Move over Marlboro Man, there's a new cancer peddler in town.
NEXT: Eric Shonborn gets horny! Errrr, uhhh... tusky.
Magneto by Pete Borrebach
WHOOOPS! I forgot that Project Basementmoved to Fridays. My bad.
Luckily, I think Pete will forgive me. In fact, he probably forgot about this Good Bad Guys sketch considering he drew it all the way back in June.
Anyway, you may remember Pete from such webcomics as Time Log and Zombie Palin, or previous PB submissions like sad Captain America and crying Cyclops.
NEXT FRIDAY: Byron Winton gets wet! Errr, uhhh... swampy.
