Okay, well I had wanted to try and finish up my Halloween Themed strips by today (Friday) but I have so much fun drawing I.R. Hungré that I have a few more Halloween strips that I’m still going to do. So, for this year, in the Capes & babes universe, Halloween is going to be an EXTENDED holiday!
I also wanted to mention that as I started this strip, I wanted I.R. to have a bunch of his movie posters displayed on his wall. I was brainstorming, I had thought about putting up the poster from the first movie Joey and Marc saw together (check the archives way back when) but then I got a brilliant idea to do movie posters like the old B-horror fest of years gone by – the ones that tried to totally exploit sex whenever possible. Once I came up with THAT idea, suddenly it hit me to put Jamie and Hazel from Girls with Slingshots as the “stars” of one of the posters.
I almost immediately came up with the title: “Zombie sluts from Planet Z!” since that was sort of in the same spirit as those old 70’s drive-in movies. And, if Jamie and Hazel were my own characters, I probably would have stayed with “sluts” but since they aren’t, I decided to change the title to “Tramps” instead. Tramps is a bit more tamer than “sluts” but still conveys the same message.
The other problem I had was their pose. How do I draw them? I tried a couple of different sketches until I got ANOTHER brilliant idea… since I was paying homage to scream queen movies, I figured I’d also pay homage to Danielle herself by copying the same pose Jamie and Hazel are in on the cover of Danielle’s first book.
Here’s a larger version so you can see the details (the coloring was much more simplified than I normally do since I knew the final image would be drastically reduced in size):
