MUMBLINGS about whatever happens to trip-my-trigger this week. This might cover books, horror movies, new music I have discovered, photo edits, tweaking panel art from a graphic novel, technical tips for your PC/mobile devices, or any other random topic.

Catwoman Climbing the Side of a Downtown Alley Building in the Snow
I pulled a panel originally drawn by Juan Ferreyra from Catwoman #25 (DC Comics 2020), and started on my work in extending the scenery into something a bit different including merging it into a realistic snowy mid-city alley. Used some of IAMRENSI's custom brushes, and I even had a chance to use Affinity Photo's transform function to alert the movement of Catwoman's leg, and the cat's tail.

Catwoman loves the feel of latex
"I love the feel of latex..." -- Catwoman original art by Jorge Jiménez from Batman issue #138 (DC 2023) but I took it over with a new word balloon and other coloring/framing tweaks after extracting the single panel out for playtime. Hi-rez link.

Martian Manhunter Fears the Flame!
The Martian Manhunter (J'onn J'onzz) fears the flame... panel extracted from Action Comics Presents: Doomsday Special #1 (© DC Comics 2023) whose original artwork was produced by Eddy Barrows, Eber Ferreira & Adriano Lucas. I pulled the panel out removed text panels and added some fire to give J'onn J'onzz something to really be afraid of.

Superman versus a giant gorilla
Superman swirls around the giant gorilla (Titano?) building up momentum, and then winds-ups for a super-powered punch. No fancy title for today's dabbling, simply "Superman versus Giant Gorilla." I scanned a page from DC's Legion of Bloom (2023) with original artwork by Dave Sharpe that featured Captain Carrot and replaced him with an image of Superman instead.

I've taken an original Bob McLeod black & white sketch that Heman86 colored and then added my own alterations. The Flash (Barry Allen) is now the world's fastest Uber Eats delivery person!

Batman Beyond Shows Off Some Magical Powers
Batman (Terry McGinnis) says "Of course, magic is real. Of course, it is. Obviously..." panel extracted from Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic issue #2 (© DC Comics 2023) whose original artwork was produced by Max Dunbar & Sebastian Cheng. I twisted the original context of this artwork and granted Batman real magic powers via my own image edits and adjustments.

Catwoman shown in an action sequence dropping from a rooftop onto three street thugs.
I dissected a page from DC Comics Catwoman #25 (released November 2020) whose original artwork was created by Juan Fereyra with coloring by FCO Plascencia and then recomposed the action sequence into my own version inside a Kodak filmstrip.

The Bat-Mobile kicks in nitro-flame mode... panel extracted from Batman issue #137 (© DC Comics 2023) whose original artwork was produced by Jorge Jiménez & Tomeu Morey. I pulled the panel out removed text panels and tried to give it an enhanced view.

Even the Joker cries aka Every clown has a sad day.
I scanned a page from Batman: The Brave and the Bold #1 whose original artwork was created by Mitch Gerads and then did some sleight of hand removing an extra character, tweaking things a bit, and adding some text to make an even sadder-looking clown. Nothing is lonelier than a wet clown sitting by himself on a park bench pathetically holding onto his last party balloon.
