"Invasion of The Malice Circus!" 3/6



What's this? More new characters? You betcha. And -- not to give anything away -- we've now revealed the full extent of the Marauders team at this point. There were two other characters we originally designed to be involved but they would make the story needlessly busy. Divinus is my favourite member of the team. He's the spiritual powers guy, coming onto the scene this time as the "Ghostbuster." I think La Spectra (as she is called) turned out nice and creepy, and I'm strangely proud of how well the whooshing bottle came out in the top right.

Once again the strip printed a bit darker on the newsprint than I meant it to... but I think it at least works this time around seeing as it's supposed to take place in the dark, and Divinus is supposed to be ethnic. You'll notice I've also tried playing around with some SPECIAL EFFECTS-ECTS-ECts-ects-cts-cs dealing with light sources (ie. flashlight and glowing hands). Exciting stuff.

Fun Fact: Twelve-Eighty is the on-campus restaurant and bar, formerly called Quarters. Alot of people didn't like the changes made, but it seems to be winning others over.
