Remake: Skyrocket Steele

From Whitechapel’s Remake thread this week comes Skyrocket Steele, a character with the single defining characteristic of living in the year X:

New week?

Looks like I survived the weekend there. I seem to have forgotten to post anything on Friday though, so here’s something from my Christmas TV binge:

Oh and this is me today:

Zombie Kitty tomorrow, yes?

Mister E. and the Kolah King

I seem to have gotten a bit carried away with this week’s Remake thread:

Mister Ellis had this character description -

From 1941, when the drugs were apparently very good:

Mr. E appealed for guidance and assistance to a statue of a ancient tribal god named King Kolah which he housed in a subterranean temple beneath his home. Kolah presented Mr. E with visions that led him to criminals. The idol also gave Mr. E the assistance of his elven messengers. The messengers were small gnome-like creatures who could shapeshift into a variety of creatures and wreaked mischief against Mr. E’s enemies. One of the messengers was named Butch. Mr. E used his visions and assistant gnomes to fight crime in Washington DC. Mr. E dated a girl named Miss Terry.

Dredd again?

I think I might have gone the other way and overdone the chin slightly on this one:

I am made of tired

Back on Wednesday I was slightly less knackered, so I went hunting and found the 2000AD forum, with this possibly dangerous 15 minutes to draw Dredd’s head thread. This one took me about twenty minutes with no research, which made me realise that in the years since I last bought 2000AD I had somehow managed to forget what shape Dredd’s chin is. I’ll be trying this again soon…

this one right here

This week’s remake/remodel is Zero the Ghost Detective. Mr. Ellis’ description this week was a single line from a wiki that reads:

Zero the Ghost Detective would exterminate evil ghosts by any means necessary.

How can you say no to that? Here he is, and he’s not too happy:

I think I need to colour this.

Super what?

I return to Warren Ellis’ remake/remodel thread, which this week is SUPER ANN!

Warren’s description:

When Ann Star was a child, she was caught outside in a fierce snow storm. She managed to survive by taking refuge in a cave until the storm was over. In the cave, she discovered and old hermit from another planet who could not stand the light of day. He taught her secrets that gave her super strength and increased resistance to damage. Now known as Super Ann, she is depicted as always running on tiptoes, ballerina style, and as having many Superman-like powers. These powers include super speed, super strength, and the ability to leap tall buildings.

Which would mean her fatal weakness would be… this?

king prawn?

oops, that’s more than a week since I last posted here – I think this one owes more than a bit to District 9 trailers and playing a bit too much Devil May Cry 4 this week…
