Done to help promote D.Rod's Starkweather book, up for preorder now… If you hadn't heard. :) And yes, we have a horizontal wallpaper version at the bottom of the post here. I hope y'all like it.

Our schedule this week will be a pinup on Wednesday, followed by the second issue cover. And then the second issue starts on Monday.

For those curious, here's the line up on the screen and what book they belong to, left to right for the wallpaper below:

Rebecca McKay: (Shadowgirls)
Charon McKay: (Shadowgirls)
Dany Golden: (Starkweather)
Alex Starkweather w/ Solomon: (Starkweather)
Lindsey Jun Yeoh: (Shadowgirls)
Gage Campbell: (Shadowgirls)
Jackson Snow: (Shadowgirls)
Christmas Snow: (Shadowgirls)
Mother Hydra: (Shadowgirls)
Patrick Sawyer: (Shadowgirls)
Maxine Luisa Marquez: (Shadowgirls/Max Pneumatic)
Golem: (Starkweather)
Cartaphilus: (Starkweather)
Emmanuel: (Starkweather)
Fides: (Shadowgirls)
Janine Dalinde: (Davekka… Long story)
Tag: (Starkweather)
Whitecoat: (Shadowgirls)
Aspis: (Shadowgirls)
Moira McKay: (Shadowgirls)
Merri: (Shadowgirls)
Robert Olmstead: (Shadowgirls)
Deep One Progenitor: (Shadowgirls)
E.o.D. Faith Blade: (Shadowgirls)
Doc Shadow: (Doc Shadow)
Becka's spider dreamhaunter: (Shadowgirls)
Annaline: (Psychomancers)
Mordecai: (Psychomancers)
Medus: (Mythmakers RPG… Yeah, I know. I know.)

If I had the time I would have loved to sit down and draw unique battle ready images for each one of them. Maybe even has a done up interactive screen, where when you selected the character it replaced the image with the new one, while a 'Q-sound' midi played in the background. Ah hell, while we're dreaming, let's make this with art by Studio Udon, with voice acting for the characters, as an exclusive downloadable game for the X-Box 360 

*sigh*… Someday. :)

Hah, wonder which characters fall under high tier and which fall under low tier, or the dreaded god tier. Also..Aspis has the best character photo.

Just noticed.  "Merri"?  Is this the first time we're seeing Chrissy's mother's name?  If not, can someone site the original page?

Maybe possibly for issue two. Or a character I've worked on before. :)

We've unofficially referred to her as "Merri" before, to keep with the tradition of stupid names in that family. Her real name is unpronounceable in human tongue. (It's like KKkKKKkkkkKKKEEeeeeeEEEeeeeeEEEEEeeeeeeKkkkkEEEE!!!!) But whether that's what Chrissy's father called her or not has yet to be revealed.

I think he called her 'darling' – but that's just my inner romantic talking :)

The second ? from the left is Me :)   You have to unlock it by beating the game with every character on every difficulty (ensuring that, as in the comics, I never show up in the game) lol!

So I have to say, I'm a bit disappointed that the mystery was revealed so blatantly.  I was having fun trying to figure out who everyone was, but looks like it wasn't really a game for us. 


Oh wells.  Next time I guess I wont check the forum for hints.

Just a pretty little flower, but don't make the mistake of thinking it's sweet.

I think too many of them are from comics other than Shadowgirls for many of us to get them without the list / hints.  As for revealing the ones that are from SG rather than making a scavanger hunt or tease of them, it may fall into the same category as revealing that Moira is The Master.

One of the ? is Nodens, who is also the final battle. To unlock you have to beat him on "Mega ultimate" difficulty with all the "Girls" (Becka,Charon,Missy,and Christmas) :)


Actually, we all know one of the ? WILL be the full Shadowchild.

This game so needs to be made. Would make for an awesome original 2D fighting game, or a good ole-fashioned brawler beat em up (a new age X-men arcade game? Yes please!!) . :D

I'm the LAST question mark, unlocked by completing the game having wedgied each opponent at least once.

Oooh, and Moira's alternate costume is her Master garb. And for the ladies, Jackson's alternate will be "shirtless workout". And there can be transformations for the Girls and Misty and Aspis like in the the Budokai Tenkaichi games and and and and and…

*Passes out from excitement, into coma*

Do not allow yourself to ever give in to despair or self-pity…that's my job and it's copyrighted, bucko!

IT doesn't really matter how it's played, unless there's the equivalent of the unpatched Chun Lee Kick, I will loose 100% of the time. Even with the unbeatable attack, I will still loose 60% of the time.

There's a reason I prefer strategy and simulation games over button mashers.

It's time for another good idea, bad idea:
Good Idea – Getting your Insider character into the comic
Bad Idea – Joining the EOD to do so.

Gratz to Jacobus for the New Avatar!

I was referencing back to this for the Emotional Spectrum topic, and it occurs to me…

This is done to promote Starkweather via ShadowGirls, and most of the characters come from one of those two, but the rest…

Is there any material out there for Max Pneumatic, Psychomancers, or Davekka, aside from what might have appeared as filler or interlude on the old ShadowGirls site?  (And is any of that old filler / interlude material still around?)
