Weekly Sketch Group #247
Welcome to another Weekly Sketch Group! I'm your temp-agency sketch group moderator while Manji is trying to figure out what recipe the Rock is cooking. Every PJ member can join the sketch group, no invite required! So why don't you sharpen your pencil and join us this week? If you have any ideas for future topics you'd like to see in the sketch group PM me the details and I will do my best to use them in a future installment! All 3 of this weeks topics were requested by contributors to the WSG!
And now on to this weeks topics:
1. Silver age Batman and Robin: The Dynamic Duo from the 1950's and 60's. More fun and much less grim! For bonus points draw Earth-2's Robin!
2. Ben Franklin with super-powers: In the spirit of Abraham Lincoln-Vampire Hunter draw ANY of the Founding Father's (or Mothers ;)!) of the USA embued with legendary powers or abilities!
3. Original Character or Concept:
The Collector
by Tudore:
At the moment of death, the soul is forcibly ejected. This is usually somewhat traumatic. Often, souls try to continue on their past lives, in complete denial of their situation. Some undergo a post-existential crisis: overwhelmed by the experience, they become catatonic, hysteric, or otherwise relieve themselves of their rational faculties. Only a small minority accept their condition, and wait to be collected.
The Collector's decrepit frame can barely support its own weight, let alone the heavy leather robe and dog's head that are necessary to the collection process. The robe allows the Collector to shape shift into persons or animals: to evade detection, or to imitate a familiar form that the target will be drawn to. The dog sniffs out lingering souls; its bite cleanses the soul.
The collection process is very rarely straightforward, but necessary: if souls are not collected and cleansed (stripped of memories, personality, and, as the increase of the population requires, split into fractions), the next generation will simply not be.
And there you have it my fellow sketch group peeps! Keep those pencils sharp and have a great week of drawing!
