THE MOST POWERFUL MEMBER OF THE X-MEN IS....

Marvel Comics and [DC Comics as well] have never been known to fully honor any sort of strict "code of power levels", so often a certain character will stand out in one particular storyline and beat up all of his opponents; while in another storyline, that tough guy will end up getting pounded into the ground, by an average super-opponent. And that capricious issue often makes it difficult to incisively highlight the toughest X-man on the roster of X-men.
But honestly, the most powerful member of the X-men is not really a man. It's a woman. And that person is Storm [aka Ms. Ororo Munroe].

No man can walk through an incoming tornado with wind speeds that exceed 500 miles per hour and remain unharmed. And there are a host of other elemental powers, ranging from giant hail, to aquatic storms located out at sea like maelstroms, which Storm can generate. Imagine what would happen to an entire city, if Storm rained down giant frozen rocks that were the size of bulldozers? That feat shouldn't be too hard for her, since she can manipulate the elements, not just lightning.
It is said that tasers use about 50,000 Volts, but with a very limited / brief current. Now imagine 50 Million Volts, channeled at a mans chest for an extended period. Storm can do that with ease, if she chooses to do so. And not even Thor can play with lightning, without his puny hammer.
I can't give you a reason why Marvel and DC notoriously marginalize / belittle certain "A Class" characters and treat them as if they were weaker "B Class" characters [BTW, think of Batman vs Robin Boy Wonder, if you want to know an obvious A and B Class comparison].
Nevertheless, I still strongly feel that Storm is in an elite class all by herself. Even Cyclops [who has eyebeams that are more powerful than those of Superman] has never really stood out in the comics as a powerful "A Class" character, although he has that potential.
As for Storm and the way her powers are poorly presented in the Marvel storylines, perhaps it's due to a bias linked to gender, or race; or maybe it's just poor writing or horrible editing. I dunno. But I do know that regardless of the way Marvel portrays her in the comics / cartoons, Storm is still the most powerful member of the X-men team, not in terms of her muscles, but in terms of her comprehensive abilities and destructive potential. Figured I'd do a fan art of Storm [shown above], as my first poster of the year.

A NEW YEAR BEGINS - SEXY SCI FI ART AND MELYSSA FORD'S BOOTY

All of that stuff is good, but it's not as important as these two points: Learn to love and accept yourself. And never give up on your dreams.
Now lets move on to the other issues on the table. Although I've written 12 ebooks, I plan to write lots of DSNG ebooks this year... and I hope to draw more sci fi related art, linked directly to DSNG. Drawing Superman, Powergirl and Supergirl is good, but drawing my Original Characters is even better for me. Plus I've found a few new models online, whom I can use as references for my female characters like Elena, Yatalia, and Sam.

BTW, Buffie the Body was also popular at that time; and she is shown below.

Remember Jadakiss and his "Knock yourself out" music video, back in 2001? Well Melyssa was the featured model in that classic video.
And now, fast-forward to 2014; and Melyssa is back in a Reality Show on Cable TV called Blood, Sweat and Heels. And it features her and some girlfriends trying to make it in NYC. Honestly, Melyssa has always been known as a chaste disciplined young lady, who didn't mess around with the rappers that she was seen in the videos with. She's always been classy and apparently she has a fetish for collecting high heels...
Don't worry about who else is on the reality show. There are roughly 5 other chicks along with Melyssa, but trust me: "Ain't none of them as hot as her" - LOL.
I'm probably not going to keep up with the TV show, but I will keep up with Melyssa, and see what she's up to this year....
BTW, the sci fi art poster above with a futuristic female soldier was done by Boosoohoo, over on the DA website.
Stay tuned for more stuff from DSNG!- Article written by the artist & author of the DSNG Sci Fi Series

SUPERMAN IS DATING WONDER WOMAN - SNU SNU TIME! LOL


I did an article a few years ago that listed the many girlfriends of Batman, who is a certified billionaire playboy [that article is over HERE].
And unlike Bruce Wayne, who is clearly a player, Clark Kent has always been mild-mannered and gentle, almost like a good little boyscout. But now the boyscout from Krypton is probably doing "the nasty" / "the dance with no pants" with an Amazon princess.
And according to Futurama fans: HOTDAMN! SUPERMAN AND WONDER WOMAN ARE DOIN' THE SNU SNU!! :)

Traditionally, comics have been predominantly bought by fan boys [although there are lots of lovely geek gals out there, like those who read this blog]. And most male fans actually buy comics because of the dynamic action & adventure tales. The guys do enjoy the romance, as long as the art is fantastic and they like the male & female couple. But if the entire story over several books is watered down into a tender soft soap-opera, then it tends to be a turn-off to the guys.
Perhaps DC Comics is aware of this issue [they should be, after being in business for over 50 years]; therefore, they have released the cover image of Superman / Wonder woman #6, which shows General Zod and Faora, fighting against the Kryptonian boyscout and his Amazon girlfriend. But that's in issue #6; and issue #4 will be hitting stores in the next few weeks, on January 15, 2014.
So will the entire series keep fans entertained? I dunno; guess we will have to wait and find out....

EXPLORING DSNG - PART 20: AZDA, CINDERAH AND ZELINDA!
In this post, I'll briefly talk about three beautiful ladies from the DSNG sci fi series.
The first is Azda Makeshdag, the second is Cinderah Kha'Lin and the third is Zelinda Denzo. These three ladies are featured in the latest DSNG ebook [DSNG Chronicles Book 11, which was launched last night, over here at Amazon.com!]
BTW, the lady shown on the cover of DSNG Book 11 is Yatzat, and the "t" at the end of her name is silent.
If you've been keeping up with this Overview series of blog articles, then you've actually met Azda before, about 2 years ago. She is the mother of King Titron [the lascivious monarch of planet Avera] and she is from planet Entrados, the Steampunk world. Azda is an ex-gladiator and she is a strong-minded lady. Azda was first presented in DSNG Book 1, so she's quite a notable character. And Azda is 10-times stronger than She-Hulk, since she is gifted with super-strength and agility - although she can't fly. Since Azda is from planet Erion, she has orange skin; and most of people from that planet have either red skin or blue skin. And the lizardians also hail from that world, which is run by the infamous Red Witch. Azda is a veteran martial arts trainer, an she plays a major role in DSNG Book 11.
Next, we have Cinderah; and she is a female Kataran hailing from the icy world, planet Planoris. Clearly she was designed to be thick / sexy / phat / curvy / voluptuous etc. And in terms of her personality, Cinderah is very laid-back and she is rather secretive. Cinderah is a powerful female Kataran, and she is an ex-MMA champion.
Actually, you've met other female Katarans in the past, since I've done articles on Wandah and Chebeyah, who are regular characters that pop up in the DSNG sci fi books.
Cinderah is an NCI operative, thus she works as a senior Federal Agent in the Organized Crime Division. She first showed up in DSNG Book 10, when Azzar was hunting down the razerbacks / werewolves, while he also battled a super-strong villain known as The Tank. But if you recall some of the brisk details within DSNG Book 6, that volume [with the cyborgs on planetoid Darosa] contained one of the earliest mentions of Cinderah - and it was Yatalia that mentioned her, while Yatalia was arguing with Vince.
Anyway, Cinderah has a strong crush on Prince Azzar, and they both go out on a hot date in the latest volume, Book 11.
The last female in the trio is Zelinda, and she is a neurosurgeon with a lovely hourglass figure. Plus she makes her first appearance in the latest ebook. Perhaps the best words to describe Zelinda are "crazy, sexy, cool", since she often comes across as a bubbly dumb-blonde, even though she is super-smart. She loves to joke around and she trully is blessed with the gift of youth, since she is older than Prince Azzar [the main protagonist in the DSNG sci fi series], yet she looks like she's younger than him.
Zelinda hails from planet Erion, where there are animan characters like Mieka, the wife of the suave mob boss Jut-Hun, who hails from a panther species [Mieka was shown previously in This Article].
Zelinda loves to flirt, and she is fond of grinning broadly and saying hilarious things.
And Zelinda is a character with a very peculiar past... yet she keeps her past as a highly guarded secret, while she works as a veteran surgeon. She and Azzar also meet in the book, but under very chaotic circumstances....

WOLVERINE VS. IRONMAN VS. SUPERMAN [MAN OF STEEL] - WHO WOULD WIN?

Yeah, they'd make an incredible team. But on the other hand, if you could place them all in a vast arena like the Colorado plateau beside the Grand Canyon [over in Arizona] and ask them to go at it until we have the Last Man Standing, then who would really win the all-out brawl??
At the Box Office, Ironman reigns supreme; and he's got an army of remote controlled armored-robot-suits that can answer his beck and call. But honestly, without his armored exoskeleton suit, he is a mortal man, void of special powers.
Wolverine is also a mortal, but he's got a peculiar thing called the healing factor, which helps him to practically cure himself from all of his internal and external injuries. Plus his adamantium endoskeleton comes in handy every now and then.
Superman is the only alien in the mix. And while he has the power to literally leap over skyscrapers [or just lift them out of the way], he is almost invulnerable. I say almost, because he is still limited by respiration requirements, and therefore he can suffer from asphyxiation - he can run out of oxygen.
But once the bell rings, what would happen? Here is a brief clip of my envisioned battle:
Tony Stark would be brazen enough to attack both of his foes simultaneously. Wolverine would be knocked down but he'd able to recover from the repulsor rays that pound into his chest, while Superman outruns the heat-seeking mini-missiles that Ironman would send after him. Next the two guys that can fly would be battling in the sky, trading heavy blows; and the first person to get knocked down into a mountain would become prey for the Wolverine. And Superman truly won't be able to regrow a hand that gets hacked off by adamantium claws. Since he is wearing an armored suit, Ironman can probably take the most immense pounding once the other guys gang up on him; but Tony has some laser-styled weaponry that can easily lacerate flesh and cut off their arms and legs. But if Superman gets angry enough to use his ice-breath and eyebeams as a lethal-combo, then he can freeze the leaping Wolverine in mid-air, before blasting off his head with his heat vision, unleashed at a wide angle. And once his suit's power-cell is down to 10-percent, Ironman truly is nothing more than a playboy in a heavy metal tuxedo. Perhaps that would be the time for Tony to pull out some kryptonite-coated brass knuckles....
I could keep going on and on. Perhaps the battle would be easier to debate, if there were two rather than three opponents. But on the other hand, I think you probably know who would win this battle. Yeah, they're all Alpha Males. And they are all incredibly strong.
But only one of them has the "hope symbol" on his chest.... - Article written by the artist & author of the DSNG Sci Fi Series

FEMALE SCI FI / FANTASY CHARACTER CONCEPT DESIGNS - PART 4
I've gathered a few more concept art posters and wallpapers from around
the Web. They showcase mostly fantasy armor concept designs for female
warriors, including light knight armor, light exo-suits, mecha, heavy armor, future policewomen, barbarians, and other sleek battle armor.
And some costumes are just skimpy bikinis, added for the horny fanboys who only view this blog so that they can see pics like that.... BTW, the original name of the first pic on the left was "Spider Woman". Not sure why the artist from Asia chose that name; and don't ask me why he drew the skeletor panties on her LOL
Special Thanks to the following artists: ZWY, Igor Bulygin, Moof Anderson, Khezu, Taesi, Shin Tae Sub, and Zeronis. FYI, thera ere a few pics that I found randomly in various blogs, so i don't know every single artist behind the amazing works above.

WHY THE AVENGERS-BASED "AGENTS OF SHIELD" TV SHOW SUCKS

Just take a look at this list of 5 characters, tagged historically as the founders of The Avengers, datign back to the comics in 1963:
Ironman, Thor, Antman, Wasp and Hulk.
BTW: Guys like Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Quicksilver & Scarlet Witch came later, as recruits.
Now, here is a jumbled list of just some of the characters that have joined various regional branches of Shield [Many of whom will never make it into the Marvel Movie Adaptations, but they'd still be good for a TV show]:
**War Machine**, Luke Cage, Sentry, She-Hulk, Spider Woman, Hercules, Ares, Black Panther, Tigra, The Vision, Black Knight, Captain Marvel, StarHawk, DarkHawk, Sandman, Namor, Mockingbird, MoonKnight, Firebird, Demolition Man, Machine Man, Stingray, Crystal, Thunderstrike, Justice, Firestar, Captain Britain, Silverclaw, 3D-Man, Echo, Mantis, Jack-of-Hearts etc,
That's over 30 characters, and there are more, listed over HERE. War Machine got the stars, because he was underrated in all of the Ironman movie sequels. It was shameful to see such a great character used so poorly...
Anyway, you can see that there is a wide array of comic characters that the TV show's writers and directors could have freely considered. And the TV show does not have to be linked directly to a movie - remember Smallville and the Man of Steel movie? That's basically the case and point. Hence, when the superhero TV show is entertaining, then the fans will give the franchise a lot of liberty to be creative, even if the show isn't tied to a known canon / any previous comic legend.
I'm not sure if Joss Whedon had a hand in the production of The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, but even if he did / didn't give those guys any pointers on creating a respectable cast roster, any true fan of Marvel Comics will agree with my incisive bottom-line.
And the bottom-line is this:
ANY TV SHOW BASED IN A SUPERHERO UNIVERSE SHOULD HAVE ACTUAL ‘SUPERHEROES’ AS THE MAIN CHARACTERS ON THE SHOW

YATALIA AND KATHY BENTLEY! - PART 2
Most fans of the DSNG Sci Fi Series know who Yatalia is [and the premier articles about her are posted Here and Here]. Yatalia is a strong female character. She is an Alpha Senturi soldier with the rank of Commander. And she is a trusted ally of Prince Azzar, the main protagonist of the DSNG series. I posted the pencil version of the Yatalia pic over at facebook, so here are the inked and colored versions. And yes, baby got back. And hips. And thighs... etc.
On the other hand, if you've been following this blog over the past year, then you've probably seen some of the articles [created for drooling fanboys], which are solely about Pawgs. One such female is Kathy Bentley, who is a Cuban Web model. Not sure if Kathy Ferreiro is pursuing a serious modeling career; and I really don't care. I'm more concerned about that phat ass.... I mean using her physique and her lovely curves as a reference model, when I draw voluptuous characters like Yatalia.
You can check out the previous articles featuring Kathy over Here and Here.

SCI FI FUTURISTIC CONCEPT ARMOR AND COSTUMES - PART 5
Been a while since I posted anything on this blog, since I've been super busy. Plus the Batman casting announcement of Ben Afleck had left me too stunned / angry / pissed / shocked to write anything good, so I stayed away from typing things in this blog that would be offensive to my readers.
Anyway, today I'll present an assortment of digital concept art posters and sexy pinups, which showcase a variety of styles by some of my favorite artists. The first pic is some sort of latex tentacle fetish pinup; it was part of a coloring contest done over at CGHub.com - yet it kinda looks like sci fi, so I boldly added it to the mix. The next pic showcases Geriva, one of the characters from the DSNG sci fi series. I've done an article on Geriva's home planet, in the past - and yes, baby got back.
The other three posters showcase sexy female mech / mecha designs and sci fi armor. Special thanks to: papa ninja, d3mon, saturnoarg, matoel grande, felsus and Mr. DSNG.

THE COMPLEXITY OF PRODUCING A REAL JUSTICE LEAGUE MOVIE

Nevertheless, the proposed Superman & Batman Movie is probably going to be a springboard for future epic action movies that will be a shameless attempt by DC Comics to contend with Marvel's The Avengers movie franchise [which has the Agents of SHIELD TV Show spinoff, coming later this year].
Yet I stand back and take a look at the numbers; and I wonder if Warner Bros is truly ready to "give" before they "receive", in terms of their future major "investments" and their desired "profits", as they try to keep up with Marvel & Disney.

That's one of the points that I'm trying to make. Zack Snyder, as good as he is, is the sort of director that will go "over the top" if you give him the money and the creative freedom. Zack is not like Micheal Badaboom-Kaboom Bay, whose idea of "over the top" is a ton of explosions plus explosions and multiplied by explosions.
I will say that the Man of Steel movie had some segments that seemed to need more expansion [like more scenes of daily life on Krypton, so that we would care more about the sad fate of the people who died on that world]. And there were other segments that could have been fully excluded from the movie, in order to cut down 5 - 10 million dollars.... like the scene with Superman battling the "terraforming tentacle machine" that was sitting in the shallow end of the Indian Ocean, after Superman flew halfway around the world through space, with no oxygen mask, and yet his cape was also fluttering in the wind of space as he flew there to stop the giant machine.
FYI - there is no wind in space; and anyone flying through space will freeze to death, per the subzero temperatures outside of Earth's encasing thermosphere :)
Anyway, Zack Snyder could have cut out that tentacle machine fight and included more of Faora, either interacting with Superman, or just kicking the crap out of him - since Faora was born and raised as a soldier back on Krypton, and Kal-El was not [I did an article about that sexy femme fatale that assisted General Zod over HERE].
Yet Zack Snyder is the kind of director that thinks on an epic grand scale, and that's why he seemed to keep trying to create exponential chaos in the Superman movie - it's also the reason why he spent a ton of time and money on the final battle between Zod and Superman, which wrecked more than half of Metropolis, practically turning the entire city into rubble.

So what about including a storyline that will properly honor and introduce The Flash, Green Lantern, Cyborg, Aquaman and Wonder Woman? What sort of budget / realistic setting could possibly be created to accommodate a running-man, a guy with a power ring that can generate anything green except veggies and Kryptonite, a water-world-king that can walk around and breath freely underwater, and an Amazon princess who has an invisible fighter jet?
Don't worry about Cyborg - he is basically a one-suit-Ironman, without the human limitation of fatigue and without the cocky playboy persona. But just imagine the complexity of the sort of script that could include all of those heroic characters.... AND THE EVEN HALF OF THE EVIL INJUSTICE LEAGUE??

BTW, there was once a rumor that Christina Hendricks [shown on the right] would be the next Wonder Woman actress, per some things that a director named Nicholas Winding Refn was saying a few years ago. The article with more pics of that voluptuous actress are over Here.
I don't mind if Christina plays that role sometime in the future, in a Justice League movie. I'm more concerned about how the pieces will fit together properly [in terms of balancing the comic-book-lore and fantasy along with believable reality]. Plus I'm still wondering how much money such a a movie, which is intended to be an epic masterpiece, will cost. Remember that "big budget" doesn't always automatically yield a "big hit" at the box office; there are a ton of major films that have flopped this year, including the infamous Western that cost 250 million dollars to produce - The Lone Ranger.
