Mike- Not as interesting as your battle against Estrella, but it was still ok. I agree that the self depricating comments brought the comic down a bit. Keep working man, but don't shoot yourself in the foot in the process, alright? I know you can do better than this, like in the last two bottom panels on page 4, where is the love? You could've done better silos (and different shots, maybe vary it with a different angle?) than the little aol dude shapes. You're getting better, keep going.

Drawdan- Improving with every fight, good composition and coloring. First page confused me a bit, but the storyline you introduced proved to be interesting. Weird thing I noticed, in page 2 you gave Michael a lazy eye. His left is focused on the prone form of B&D, while his right is still looking skywards. It just looks awkward, unless it was intentional...? On the same page, Boot's hands and fingers looked pretty wonky. I really liked the shot of Robo-Mike's flying, screaming head.

thanks for the comments everybody.  the reason i left those comments in is because a friend saw them and said "leave those in, it would be funny" so i did... lesson learned.

when i saw 22 shooting dreads with a gun i was like "aw man not again, 2 out of my 3 fights has 22 shooting someone."  but it was just a robot.

glad my hit list idea could help out your own story, but for those playing at home they are not the same, i have my own thing planed with my list.

that should do for now.

Both pretty good, DD's stood out more for me thou...

Red2Z: Come on man, if you don't have confedence in your own art, then you'll never be willing to improve yourself man. Besides, don't we do enough bashing on your art ourselfs ;) . Anywho, you know what you need to improve on, so there's no need to repeat what everybody else has said.

Drawdan: It was a close battle against P2, but this comic feels like a step down from that to me (probably because there isn't as many pages as before). The main thing that put me down was the villan himself (shadow guy), he just didn't seem that intimidating to me, if he was like Teen Titan's Slade (Keniving, sinister, smart, relaxed, almost insane)... then we'd have a rather intimidating villian for Dreadnaught to fight (but I trust that his personality will also develope perfectly in the future). Um, I'm with Mase on the balance issue (page 4, top panel, he looks like he's gonna fall down)... but other than that, I can't say much man.

My vote is for Drawdan, you both did amazingly well thou! Keep it up or something?

Drawdan - solid work.  You should do some life drawing to brush up on the human form.  Its good, but the foreshortening was off and the stances seemed a bit off-balance.
red2z - don't bash your own stuff - leave that to us! haha.  I followed the action well enough, so nice job.  You should download some better fonts (try blambot.com).

As far as knowing more about michael 22- I stated earlyer that the back story for this battle was inspired by Michael 22's bio where he talks about receiving a list of Void Fighters that his name is on. As a matter of fact he made reference to it in his battle as well. This is simply my take on that idea. I had already decided that I wanted an arch villian in my battles, I mean -whats a hero if he doesnt have a nemisis- and the idea of a list of fighters that he was targeting just seemed to lead into that backtory. Most of all-I liked the idea of fighting Michael 22(whos basically a morale good character like Dreds,) but it not really being Michael 22.

Sorry about the beginning, didnt have time for a lead in page, but this battle immediatly picked up afterthe P2 battle which I guess I took for granted was still fresh in most peoples minds. The evil shadowy dude is evil and shadowy because I havnt finished the model sheets on him but I see your point on the inspector gadget reference.thanks for the input..

Red - yeah dude, don't knock yourself!  Although, I'm afraid I did laugh at the "AWKWARD!" comments, I couldn't help it.  Your stuff isn't bad, I like your character!  Obviously you need some work, but if you keep it up, I'm sure you'll improve as time goes by.

boots - not bad man, though what the fuck is going on in the beginning?  Was there a story that I missed somewhere?!  And you seem to know more about Michael22 than he does, but that was on purpose, yes?  Art wise, very cool once again.  Though that part where the shadowy evil guy shows up for the time first time, I immediately though of Dr. Evil (is that his name?) from INspector Gadget.  ;p

Dude red, don't leave stuff like "I'm not proud of this" or "awkward pose" in the pages... you're just slamming your own work and that just gives us even less reason to feel anything positive about it. Personally I think your part was fine on the whole, but it does get extremely difficult at some points to make out what's going on.

Page2 would be a good example, I think. In the second panel, we have Michael supposedly leaning over the top of the building. There is NO perspective in this panel at all, and it makes him look like he's gonna just flip and fall right over. Work on your angles.

Dan, whoa, ow. The last scene was just... whoa. Your marker rendering is cool. My only complaint would be the fire bits where the smudge tool ran over them, it kind of detracted from the rest of the image. But the rest of the comic was smooth and easy to read, so yeah. Cool. =)

I hope this battle is an upgrade from my previouse ones. Despite the fact that its only a 4 pager, I tried to include more back story that I will be carrying into my other battles and even managed to squeeze in some color..yeaaaa!
Good work Red-you pulled and wrote from my back story very well, and thanks for the inspiration-it was your hit list idea in your bio that inspired my new arch villian that I will be using in future battles as well.
