Rofl - three words- Erotic Murder Trip. And I was all about it! As always, killer composition and the colors in the beginning especially were super groovy. You did peter out around the end, but I really want to see what happens to Cruz and how other characters in the tourney tie into his plight. Rad!

Tank - It's a funny gag, short and sweet, but it definitely felt like a rush job. I do like the brushed look though, play around with that some more, and definitely get some colors goin.

@RoflQu I'm not one who finds story in erotic fiction, but your colours and composition were great, that being said, I do agree that considering the graphic nature of the first half of the comic, the lack of graphic violence feels off. Regardless, I did enjoy the characterisation.

@love tank Interesting, and abrupt. I like the loose grey scale painting, but I felt like you fell flat on the last two pages. perhaps you were rushed? layout was also very readable.

Rofl:
I loooooovvveee thhheee atmosphere you've give with each scene and letting your colors express that. You've done an excellent job associating your colors with the appropriate moods. I gotta agree with Barrel though- I think the weakest part of yours was Mag's death. A black panel with Thunk on it doesn't satisfy the body we discover. Gimme some gore! Orrr show me she's about to get messed. I'm interested to see how things go! Great job man!

Love Tank:
This was short and sweet! First thing that came to mind though was... where/what is this place that Cruz went to? I kind of assumed it was a place where magic shows happen being that Mags was attempting to perform some? And who would be the person Cruz is trying to get info from? Cruz looks like he about get some answers in a threatening way with your first panel, but then he immediately looks intimidated by the whole place, so his motives were confusing to me. I think if you had hinted at some panels earlier to see what Mags was up to, we could have gotten a little more of her personality in there too as opposed to her popping out of nowhere for no reason. Cuz I would have definitely loved to see more of her!

Rofl:
I gotta admit, I was a little concerned when you first showed me the sex scene. I wasn't sure how it was going to fit in, but you made it work! The drug effect was a little confusing at first, but it wasn't a dealbreaker since it's pretty clear after the first few panels. Your colors are great, and your lineweight is pretty solid! I would have liked to see a bit more buildup before Cruz "Thunk'd" Mags. Maybe a shot of him grabbing his tetsubo or whatever he used. The story hook at the end has me curious!! (And thanks for the cameo! Really caught me off guard!)

Love Tank:
POOR MAGS LOL! Though I didn't get a chance to actually get attached to the character. Your entry was really short and really breakneck with how fast things happened. It wouldn't have hurt to put in a page showing Mags casting the teleportation spell, but I appreciate the attention to Cruz's story details! Speaking of details, though, it says on Cruz's sheet that he's full of candy.. Not blood. Or, if that is candy, it's kind of hard to tell. Your choice of grays and blacks is really good, and I like a lot of the little details put in. I just wish there was more to see!

Roflq: gorgeous colors, reminds me of the legend of manolo, fitting for a pinata ! that sex scene with drug enhanced hallucinations was golden, especially that nightmarish vision in page 3.

LoveTank: awwww aren't she adorable ^^ that finisher was MK grade tho ^^
