[Good Tastes]

You know back in high school me and brother would always buy those little Archie comics that they sold in grocery stores when we went shopping. Your art very much takes me back to those times. In the end I probably read more Archie than I read Marvel, but never really thought of it that way.

As for your redraw, like with every other style you've taken on, you've mastered it. I think it says something, when not only can you draw the Archie characters in the style, but can add yourself and fit right in. I know you say these don't get many likes, but I honestly think these are better than your DC stuff. Not only are they great characters, but the backgrounds, the design elements and the lettering are all on point. I think the only paintings that you've done that I've liked more, where those hyper detailed Chrono Cross ones. Like you said though, those where extremely taxing.

[My Friend Lily's Pool Party]

I'm surprised, you actually drew yourself with somewhat red hair. Have you declared an armistice on your with redheads?

Merry Christmas to you as well, I hope you used the right list this year.

I'm natural(ish) for a month or so because I need to heal my hair :(. And yeah, I hate it. I guess in the drawing I could have done any hair color but subconsciously I picked what color I currently have.

[Christ Out of Christmas]

An exorcism, is that what the kids are calling it these days. Isn't the squirting of holy water usually involved in exorcisms? Great job on the characters, but also the lettering and background.

glee-chan responds:

QueenLily pointed me to a font that's pretty close to the source so I didn't have to hand draw it anymore. It looks good I think

[Wilykit the Waifu Wrecker]

She was definitely the loli-bait for that show, lol. I don't think she was actually designed for that purpose, but now that you point it out. I do wonder how many furries irl can thank the original Cheetara for that fetish. Even though this is a joke, great job on the drawing as always, your on model and that expression is great. Now if she only refereed to Lion-O as oni-san, she'd hit all qualifications.

[Three's A Crowd]

You know, you'd think I wouldn't be surprised by the quality of your work anymore, but obviously you consistently outdo yourself. It looks like you've gotten into working on bigger pieces, is it because you no longer have to put out so many drawings? Anyway, this is so spot on, from characters, to background, to lettering, you nailed the feel of an Archie comic.

Also, I don't think the comics authority would ever approve this comic, in fact I think you'd fall under a corrupter of the youth.

glee-chan responds:

I started doing more complex drawings because they're harder to steal...plus I'm doing subject matters that.a certain someone isn't interested in. Believe me, I miss the easier pictures, lol. This took two weekends. Lately I've got a big piece going on in the background with some smaller ones to make the difference if I'm not ready to post yet. Pretty sure no one is jonings for my pictures anymore anyway since I stopped doing DC pics.

[Glee is Bravo]

Seems like someone really wants to spend a weekend around some water, judging from your last two pics. You've gotten really good at these group shots and your backgrounds have been excellent. Really looks like you're back in your groove and all it took was drawing a bunch of hot girls.

[Mary-Jane's Only Good Scene]

Mary Jane has never really gotten a her due in any of the movies. She has such a strong will in the comics, but doesn't pop at all in the movies. I don't know if they've even had her use the Tiger line. Still the comics did her pretty dirty too. Everyone complains about today's writing, but I was getting the Spider-Man comics mailed to me every month, until Brand New Day. Joe Queseda saying he broke MJ and Peter up, because his writers said they couldn't write good stories if he was married, was so stupid. I mean it's not like Marvel wasn't built on the back of the Fantastic Four. Seriously if your writers are so inept, they can't write a married couple, it's time to hire better writers.

[XTINA IS DIRRTY]

Ah yes, I remember this phase. It's like the blueprint for every female popstar in the US whose career starts when they're young. Until they're about 18, they're presented as mostly innocent, then, Bam! A dirty phase. Likely it's because they're audience has grown up, but it can get creepy. Still remember everyone hounding Britney Spears about whether she was still a virgin, then throwing a tantrum when she finally said she wasn't. Extra creep points for the guys who were counting down to when the Olsen twins would be legal. Ah good times, though now I feel old.

Well great painting X-Tina.

glee-chan responds:

Being sexy is a super power. It is, and I don't care what hardcore woke feminist say. So when you're at an age where you can use that super power (and have the ability to) that what you do. I mean, forget the celebrities, think of the college girls and women in their 20s using their body to get what they want. They look back on that phase with embarrassment, but it feels rebellious and you get a power trip out of it. I think it's similar to younger guys who play sports, body build, or martial arts. It's an ego thing that once you mature a bit you just don't care about anymore. Still...while it last....can't hurt to look, right?

[Chris-chan is Free]

This lady is definitely a piece of shit. I'm surprised they were given such a light sentence.

glee-chan responds:

The theory is that the VA prison system simply didn't know what to do with him/her/whatever. (I can't take his transition seriously because I doubt he understands it, plus it all came from suggestions from trolls). Since he's very autistic, easily manipulated, and a danger to himself and others, I don't think they had anything equipped to handle his mental health needs. Judging by the videos he's made since prison, he's just as lost in all the 4-D storylines his trolls have been feeding him for year. I doubt the guy has a clue what's going on around him. It's just sad that this nation has very few outlets to help people with disabilities like that. He's highly functional, so they can't send him to an institution, but he's not mentally aware at the same time. It's a weird line.
