The Maleficent MODOK #1: A Marvel Masterwork Pin-Up Page Finish

Hey all!

I plan on continuing my comic from last year, The Maleficent MODOK #1, which I never got to finish due to time constraints and, let's face it, after each March, I'm always a little burned out on MODOK to keep going! Not that I don't love the big guy. Here's the finish of the Marvel Masterwork Pin-Up sketch I posted last year, and I hope to follow with the rest of "Boyos' Night Out" soon. If I have time, keep your eye out for The Maleficent MODOK #13...

Some bloggy business: Be sure to follow March MODOK Madness on Facebook and Twitter this year, links on the right. Glad to see submissions coming in, we welcome all to submit their renditions of MODOK by emailing your work to the address found under "ENLIST!", also to the right. Welcome to March MODOK MAdness 2011!

The Maleficent MODOK #1: A Marvel Masterwork Pin-Up Page Sketch

Hey....

It's over? I didn't even finish... I feel like a Liefeld....

Thank you to all the talented peoples who contributed, thank you to all you bloggers. tweeters, facebookers, and newsies who promoted, thank you, Mr. Pedro for your assistance as co-creator/curator. Extra shout out to Kasra, whose massive MODOK collection continues to delight and amaze.

Here's my final piece for March MODOK Madness 2010, a Marvel Masterwork Pin-Up of the Mo-man, however I didn't get to finish... So here's a look at how I sketch my work out, red with the blood of the innocent! MODOK would be proud.

I will continue The Maleficent MODOK #1 issue at my blog.... Come see the finished pin-up page, the end of "Boyos' Night Out" and the final arc, "Hydra Comes A' Callin'" soon. All at http://brendantobin.blogspot.com/.

I must be going now....

A bit late and behind schedule, here's the part of the comic celebrating St. Patrick's Day, as every year I try to incorporate Banshee into a MODOK piece around the holiday (see March 17th entries from me this year, and the past two as well). So I am proud to present "Boyos' Night Out", the annual battle of the drink featuring MODOK vs. Banshee! Who will remain standing at the end of the night?

Thus concludes "Dinner In The Dark Dimension" featuring the defeat of the dread Dormammu and the ordering of pizzas. I have 2 more story arcs I wanted to do, but time runs short and life gets away from one, however, I'm going to continue on with posting what I can of issue 1 until the 31st ends it. Next up: "Boyos' Night Out!", a Marvel Team-Up of sorts featuring nobody's favorite X-Man! See you soon.

Hey it's back! Here's some knock-down blistering action as Dinner In The Dark Dimension continues! Who will prevail? Time shall tell as MODOK tries to reclaim AIM's breakroom from being enveloped into Dormammu's dark realm! Join us for the postliminary page of our pulse pounding tale to be professionally posted at a perfunctory pace!

The Maleficent MODOK #1: Page 8

The Maleficent MODOK issue continues with "Dinner In The Dark Dimension", the meeting of the dread Dormammu and the malignant MODOK and, of course, the debate on whether egg salad constitutes a decent lunch! Hope to have another page up sooner than later, my perturbed, but persistant perusing public!

Dinner In The Dark Dimension continues! Oh yeah!

The Maleficent MODOK #1: Page 6

Dinner In The Dark Dimension begineth! Where's MODOK you ask? Sorry, true believer, however, he appeareth four times on the next page. In the meantime, enjoy some dread Dormammu! And some Mindless Ones. And another AIM guy trying to eat a sammich.

The Maleficent MODOK #1: Fruitpie Advertisement

MMMmmmmm...... Boastess Fruitpies. MODOK loves them enough to turn corporate shill. Hey, a guy has to eat. What does he eat? The only snack with real fruit filling and a light and tender crust. Boastess Fruitpies. Available in apple and two other flavors that MODOK cares not for!

Thus ends "One Hell Of A Headshrinker!", the first arc in The Maleficent MODOK issue one. Join us next week for an awesome action-packed account of abstruseness called... "Dinner In The Dark Dimension!" After an advertisement from one of our duly devoted and astounding advocating advertisers, naturally. Hey, someone has to pay for today's printing costs!

MODOK, death, and parent issues... The Maleficent MODOK saga continues.

The first arc of the Maleficent MODOK issue one continues with psychological hijinks. Our man has issues. And back issues. And trade paperbacks...

The Maleficent MODOK #1: Page 1

It all begins here, true believers, in a titantic tale titled "One Hell Of A Headshrinker!", starring the malicious MODOK, wherein he matches wits with Marvel's super-powered sentinel of psychology, Doc Samson!

Yes, there seems to be mistakes right off the bat and believe you me, it won't happen again! Marvel's new Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Devastation, has promised swift corporal punishment to and perverse, painful experimentation on the ragged, remaining Marvel editorial staff for any and all neglected missteps! Corrections: The banner should read "Maleficent", not "Malificent" and the colorist credited is actually the letterer! The non-credited colorist? We didn't even get to catch his name before AIM workers hauled him off as a test subject for something they called the "Brain Buster"! All because he forgot to color in one of MODOK's boots!

The Maleficent MODOK #1: Cover

Here it is, Face Fronters! The cover to the Maleficent MODOK issue one, guaranteed to be a collector's item without lenticular holograms, polybagged trading cards, or variant covers that make your breakfast for you! Why? Plain and simple, it's MODOK, fool! Come back each day for a new page in what may prove to be the Mighty Marvel Age's most maddening marketing moment in many moons: The Maleficent MODOK!
