“Swordfight”
Unused storyboard panels.
Still cleaning up the old folders. This bit was edited out of the final battle. A bit sad, as it would have been fun to have seen more of North’s sword fighting, even if only for a few extra shots.
(timing is all off, but should hopefully read clearly)
So I was cleaning my room the other day and I found some disks with some old artwork on them. On one of them was this old comic I drew and posted anonymously on 4chan back in 2009. I never signed it because I drew it in a rush to troll* the comics board (it was a few days before the film would come out and everyone was feeling very emotional about Watchmen) and I was just in the habit of posting doodles anonymously around then. There was a short thread, a few people reposted it for awhile, and then after the movie hype and Watchmen discussions died down I kinda forgot about it.
I found out a few years later that the thing kinda blew up on reddit and some other sites some time after that, and some people even wrote articles about it. Someone even drew an alternate happy ending lol.
It was pretty cool but kinda weird haha.
*When I say troll, it doesn’t mean I take any of the subjects represented here or in Watchmen lightly. I just mean I made it with the intent to cause extreme emotional impact.
OH MY GOD
THE MYSTERY IS SOLVED AT LAST
you beautiful creature you
Nobody asked me to prom, so I took my calculator.
Pics or it didn’t happen
His name is T.I.
He brought me flowers.
Obligatory outdoor photos.
Here I am, introducing him to friends.
A close-up shot of his dashing visage.
My principal talked about it in his weekly email, but he got it wrong. That tux was some damn fine imported silk.

and runs off into the wilderness shrieking his victory
