PREMIERE STRIP!

Updates

Ha... I have sketched my 3 comic strips and figured out which one I am going to use first to officially launch the comic strip of Zombie and Ghost. I have also made two new blogs that will house the strips for both Zombie and Ghost and Mental Madness. From now on, the site you are reading will be the Main Hub for you to check out either comic and others as they are created. That way, this one isn't all confusing and whatnot. This main hub will have all the general news and rantings for Metal Jaw Comics from myself and others as they are welcomed. Now... I must get back to cleaning up and getting ready the strips and deciding on a time frame as to when these comics will be posted... all that info coming soon.

First Posting of Comic Artwork!

 Here are the first two pics for my upcoming comics for Metal Jaw Comics... more will be on the way. I am not finished coloring these or anything but I was happy just to get this far... I'll be coloring these tonight and hopefully be able to post the finished product tomorrow. The top pic is of Mental Madness, a comic based off a home movie my brothers and I made back in 1987! The bottom pic is the two characters from my Untitled Comic (Zombie & Ghost) If you have any ideas let me know. May the doors be opened to METAL JAW COMICS!

"Zombie and Ghost"

I have a certain place in my heart for ghosts and zombies. I don’t know why. When I was little that kind of stuff used to scare the stuffing out of me. As I got older though, I revisited many of the movies that once did this, and upon seeing these “scary” movies I laughed. But at the same time I could see how at a younger age it would scare someone. I would think about these movies and stories and stuff and be fascinated by it all. The concepts and thought processes that go against people’s psyche. The stories in a whole are able to scare people by going to their vulnerabilities in a setting that is fantasy. I have always toyed around with the notion of making a story that played off of folklore and legends of “monsters” and what not. I watch Supernatural now, which pretty much took up that idea.

So I decided to take these ideas and make fun of them. Not so much as disrespectful to my fascination with these, but a poke at the cliché they have become. I have yet to come up with concrete names for these two characters, but the premise is going to be a ghost and a zombie chiding each other as they attack… or at least attempt to attack two Humans. My original title was just going to “Zombie, Ghost, Ted and Alice.” I look at that and I feel that I can do better, cause with that title, the main characters don’t have any personality and are just cardboard stereotypical versions of what I would like to make them. But until I come up with something I am just going to call them Z & G. These are brand new characters I am coming up with and not something that I am pulling from my back catalogue of ideas. So creating unique and interesting personalities is a little difficult. I want them to be stereotypical but at the same be a little different and play around with ideas.
