It's been months since I posted my first starter-pack of fantasy, sci-fi and horror artists in its current form, and in that time I've found dozens more to follow. And thus a second starter-pack with more than 50 new artists!

And here, the classic pack:

The trick with this sort of thing is always to just not give a fuck. The people who are totally above any sort of criticism for kink-shaming just skate by on it. The only people who get meaningful flack for it are those whose critics think they can hurt them by making a stink about it. Rise above!

Now let's see some art of them six months or so down the road.

Give her agent a call and arrange a collaboration, Al! She could really get a popularity bump by having you shine a light on her work.

The designs on the arms and legs are really cool. Are you thinking of keeping them like this, as matte paint? I could see them being like copper or gold with a metallic sheen and looking very cool.

Oh, this is almost certainly a scam. I would lay good money I know exactly what scam it is. I've seen people post about it here enough times that I feel like I can already read the next two paragraphs if you engaged with them.

There's a very funny counterfactual here where the animated series was a faithful, scene-by-scene adaptation of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run, but with literally this exact art and animation style.

Dragonball Z Abridged handled this in the funniest possible way, having them literally go off and do the whole Broly thing in the middle of Cell waiting around for them on his wrestling square for them to come fight them. Like they just got distracted by this side-quest from the main boss fight.

Imagine how delighted and confused people of faraway countries, who had never even heard of Arawn, must have been by these mysterious mammals they'd never seen nor imagined could exist, just suddenly sprung into existence all over Eurasia all at the same time!

So what happens if she depresses that extra grip on her sword? What does that do? What's that whole deal?

Quite the dashing date you had there! Making a point of getting his circular face-mask perfectly-aligned and starched white to match his tie. I imagine everyone was feeling pretty jealous of you, to have such a mysterious, roguish figure by your side that evening.

Israel wanted to do a LOT more ethnic cleansing before they agreed to any terms at all. They weren't going to waste and opportunity for a year-long campaign of genocide. They're only agreeing with it now because what they feel they could gain by continuing is less than they lose in global respect.

I had no idea you were here on Bluesky. Instant follow. I was just taking a scroll through your account and hit upon this. A wild coincidence that this page came up. This was the very first X-Men comic I ever bought, and I've been a fan continuously ever since. A formative childhood memory!
