Bringing out the fake supporters, since they apparently can’t find real ones. 

Scumbags.

Shadowfax doesn’t always start up too smoothly.
And here it is, a Broship of the Ring anniversary offering! I drew it while watching The Fellowship of the Ring with my family tonight, just like old times. It should be big enough to use as a desktop wallpaper if you should so desire!

Concept art from a reboot of my old webcomic Ice (warning: seriously NSFW). I have more of this which I’ll post another time. If you’re not familiar with Ice, the basic concept is this: England is locked in a 20 year winter and a brutal energy crisis that has ground society to a halt. Sarah (the red-haired girl) finds a lost item which may be the key to the energy crisis. The corrupt government wants it back, willing to kill for it, etc etc. 

I boiled the idea down to its basics and rebooted it set in the US, which was a lot of fun. Originally I thought the story wouldn’t work set in the States, as class hierarchy is a big issue in the original comic, but then the Occupy America stuff (not to mention what’s happening in Montreal right now, or what happened in Toronto for the G-20 summit) made it completely relevant. Scary. :P

Yeah, I know. This photo is stupid. Ironic B-boy posturing is rarely amusing to me, but I came back from color correction to find the studio empty, closed early for Memorial Day weekend. I put this hat on Kevin Coppa’s puppet, and one thing led to another…
RANDOM END-OF-THE-WEEK MUSINGS
–Sorry, it is true that there is no new episode airing this weekend. But a new Korra will be on next Saturday, June 2nd. And it’s a doozy. A REAL DOOZY. In the meantime, Nick.com wanted me to let you all know they made a playlist where you can watch the first seven episodes online, in case you need to catch up, or convert friends, family, babysitters, family pets, etc. Here’s the link: http://at.nick.com/Lv4P9O
–As some of you may know, Korra has been the number one show with teen audiences in the U.S. for some of these first seven episodes. As previously mentioned, I don’t put too much stock in ratings, but this is mind-blowing to me. How is a Saturday morning “cartoon” beating out prime time network shows like American Idol, Glee, The Voice, and Family Guy with teen audiences? We’re all surprised, honored, and baffled. My guess is that the 12-year-olds who were growing up on Avatar are now 16-year-olds, and Korra has sort of aged up right along with them. Whatever the reason, thanks!
–Mike and I love you guys, but we don’t take requests. We make the best show we can, telling the stories we want to tell, and then we put it out there in the world. By the time you guys see it and have “all the feels” and/or get all mad at stuff, we are working on something far, far ahead of that. It may not always go the way you want it to, but at least it is honest art, straight from our hearts. And a lot of these reactions may turn out to be knee-jerk ones in the long run, once you see where the stories and characters go. I’d rather do that than make some watered down “design by committee” thing that attempted to please everyone. If it were up to the majority of the audience, we’d probably have a show where Tahno and the Cabbage Merchant play beach games on Ember Island for 500 episodes… In short, as you guys say, I REGRET NOTHING.
–This is funny, but it never happened. I’m vegan.
–And lastly, my favorite quote from Mike this week, commenting on a cool, momentous shot from the Book 1 finale, addressing the whole fandom: “GIF that and put it on yer Tumblr.” HA!
Have a great, long weekend!
Love,
Far-from-perfect-Bryan
