2017 Peril Calendar - May: Dyna the Damsel Dynamo

Published:

Description

A week late - my apologies - but here it is.

As I may have mentioned somewhere, it's hard to imperil some of my heroines, particularly Tetsuko and Dyna. But I think I've come up with a suitably menacing-looking contraption for the imprisonment and eventual destruction of the Damsel Dynamo.

I'm playing with a design idea: the text, caption and calendar bits in a sidebar color box so as not to hide any of the art.

A note about Blackbox: some of you may remember my first (since abandoned) attempt at a Dyna comic, "Menace in Metal!". The villain of that piece was named The Robot Master, a name I thought could use some improvement. A reader (whose name I've forgotten, alas) suggested "Blackbox" after the fact that many electronics prototypes are housed in generic black boxes until the functions are finalized, after which the casings are then given more attractive designs. My plan for Blackbox is that he will be Dyna's most dangerous enemy, an inventor and scientific genius whose twisted psyche leads him to use his intellect to try to subjugate the world; after Dyna thwarts his schemes time after time, he turns his attention toward eliminating her once and for all. Will he succeed this time?...

(Betcha can't tell which of those screws are hand-drawn and which are just photos of drill bits pasted into the... oh, you can tell? Rats.)

Great picture. Where can I buy the high resolution of this picture? And I hope he succeed in the destruction of Dyna the Damsel. I love to see the pictures of Dyna the Damsel and Tetsuko in perils. Do you do commissions? By the way, just joined you Patreon page. Great site. Thanks
