so, NEW DW group project?

[paul brian deberry]

Creating your own character for something like this would be more work than probably anyone would want to deal with.

Because this place is essential a fan site. A Spawn/Hellboy story would be cool and timely, both are expected to have movies within the next year and a half.

Perhaps a Spawn/Hellboy team up VS Krampus or even funnier Santa Claus.

I would love to help with the writing and lettering. Could probably bring in an artist or two to help with the art.

thanks for finding those BISHOP. yeah..my Deviantart got nuked when my life fell apart a year and a half ago so...those links are all dead. I do still have files of the original art tho.
I just went and re-read all the comments and relived the experience of doing those 2 projects. kinda got me excited to do this new one.
when ED gets an official sub-forum place for this, we can put up a "sign-up" thread to see whos still interested.

I figured it was something like that. Glad you’re working things out, and that you’re back on DW.

[Duane Korslund]

Im definitely in for whatever is decided.

on a side note: I think there are enough artists and writers to really draft out an entire original DW universe...do it old school Stan Lee style building up Marvel. Split up a few teams to cover 3 or 4 different books, have the writers interweave them in the same universe. But that's probably over reaching.

Ok... but think its good to keep it not so complicated.

Im gonna say something with Hellboy and maybe Spawn. Does anyone have a different suggestion rather than spawn or is that good enough for everyone?

I also have an idea from a witch character to be an antagonist in the story. The one causing trouble.
This could be an original design.

So...my thought...all artists looking to participate...how about you all start doing some female evil witch designs and we can see what design we like best and use that? Is that an idea? Lets get some sketching going and create a villian type.

Anyone game..?

One of my aforementioned characters actually IS a witch who is a good guy, but I could easily see switching her over to a bad girl if you're interested. Or perhaps it could be a case of classic misunderstanding...?

Hellboy and ..... Manthing

Hellboy and ..... Frankenstein's Monster

just brain storming.

Good ideas, sevens. What about a story with Hellboy interwoven with several of the classic Universal monsters; Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, The Mummy, The Wolfman, The Invisible Man and The Creature all while on a mission that transports him to different locales AND time periods giving each participating artist a chance to have their own particular arc depending on which monsters they dig. Heck we could even toss in a few of the more obscure UM, as well...

[Duane Korslund]

Hellboy/Constantine for a weird dynamic

Hellboy/Angela for some duality.

Hellboy/Purgatory for....shizz and giggs.

[Bishop]

Hellboy/Archie
Hellboy/Bone
Hellboy/Darth Vader
Hellboy/Casper
Hellboy/Maxx

[jeffchris50]

Since we’re brainstorming....

Hellboy/Scooby Doo
Hellboy/Clifford, the “Big Red” Dog

or, since Big Red has a penchant for cats,

Hellboy/Garfield (purely for yucks and yahoos)
Hellboy/Pink Panther (who never says a word)
Hellboy/Felix the Cat

this one.. so far..i think has the best potential. I had suggested some kind of universe jumping thing.. but him facing off against classic monsters could be fun.. as well as any other weird monsters we want. each artist could take a specific monster... and handle that part of the story for however many pages they wanted to make it.

we would need to start the story off on a foot that sets up the concept that keeps Hellboy jumping around from place to place. maybe hes being dragged without his control...like getting sucked thru a vortex? each jump takes him to the next creature he encounters..

being that I have experience with managing these things from the last 2, I would suggest that I can take the opening of the story, do a few pages where the story is set up and hellboy is set upon his adventure...setting up everyone else to do their portion.. this also gives the artist the ability to be creative where we can say...for example.."okay BISHOP, your story has hellboy meeting Frankensteins monster. the only must haves is that hellboy needs to emerge from some kind of portal...and goes BACK into one at the end of your pages so the NEXT part is set up".

this gives the artist freedom to write the encounter visually as the want...to be horror themed..or funny..or adventure, or whatever they want.

and when its all put together with the art, we can have the writers that have wanted to join up script the thing with collaboration with the artist and add whatever dialogue they want.

I like this concept. leaves it open to a lot of variety and fun. anyone else agree...?

Maybe some sort of Mcguffin he needs to assemble that has him jumping through different realms to get parts?

[sevans]

Maybe Hellboy has been sucked into old classic monster movies, ie Last Action Hero and has to solve a mystery to get out?

You could even throw an old Scooby doo episode in, for a crazy interlude.

[jeffchris50]

Perhaps have Hellboy and whomever he is set against being used in a big game of cosmic chess, checkers or RISK? Perhaps having big Hollywood studio heads (fictional, of course) as the gamesters using Hellboy and his various opponents as the pieces until their game has ended and someone is the winner, not realizing that their game pieces have minds and wills of their own and come to collect at the games' end. Just spit balling, but it would be a great excuse for having the "game pieces" being moved around and transported from place to place....
