Grizzly and the Bear Patrol 22

[kybearfuzz]

This issue took a LONG time to get done. I was writing the issue back in February, but family and work stuff got busy and I finally had the time to put the issue together. I drew the villain for this issue a long time back, but finally got around to using the character. I already have the idea for the next issue, so hopefully the next issue won't take so long to put together. Issue Notes are at the bottom as usual. Enjoy :)






























Issue Notes:

• Skullery Maiden was not the original villain for this story. Originally, it was going to be a character I drew in a one-off cartoon called "The Closet King" who wiped the memories of gay men so he could force them into a heterosexual life. The story was way too serious and it just didn't flow. So I pulled the Skullery Maiden out of the odds and ends of my cartoons and reworked the story to something lighter.



• The names "Jane," "Blanche," and the title "Whatever Happened to Betty Jo?" should sound familiar. I wanted to spoof a famous rivalry between actresses.



• Coloring this issue was a bit of a challenge. A lot of the scenes where in darkness, so I had to work with a different color pallet and had to put different shading schemes in place.



• I watched a lot of horror movies coloring this one. And strangely, several episodes of "Schitt$ Creek," which I have grown to LOVE!

Just put the special needs characters in different layers. You'll definitely be able to accomplish more that way.
