Chaos Chameleon




This is one of those "non villain" entries. I figured I would end the week with Chaos Chameleon. His comic is meant to be derivative and cliche' filled. Chaos himself is a bit of a mystery and oddball. He fights crime because it's there (and there isn't much else going on in the town of Dry Gulp, his stomping grounds).

The Animator


"The Animator" is another villain from the Chaos Chameleon comic book universe. The idea of The Animator was to define types of resentment in the animation industry into one villainous personality. This resentment stems from work sent to cheaper overseas jobs and the enamored feelings by companies toward emerging technologies based in 3D techniques. The Animator watched as his skill set was no longer a good fit for his job and "somehow" ended up in the Chaos Chameleon dimension.

Upon arrival The Animator discovers he can animate real life objects if he simultaneously animates them on paper. Due to his bitter nature he turns to a life of crime creating headaches for Chaos Chameleon.

War Hog



"War Hog" is a villain for the online comic "Chaos Chameleon" that I started with my friend Eric Studer a couple of years ago. War Hog(s) run across the landscape in groups giving Chaos Chameleon more than his share of headaches. I've been meaning to get back to this project but the technical needs of actually building the website have been getting in the way. Sometimes I tend to want to do things "perfect" which obstruct from actually doing something. I'm sure this tendency is felt with creative folk across the spectrum. Once Thudian and Mundoose episode 2 is close to completion and episode 3 is underway I'd like to bring attention back to Chaos Chameleon.


I'll probably be digging into the archives for the next few days since I won't have consistent access to internet and won't have time to sketch a lot. I also received some sad family news so my sketching aura will be underpowered for a period of time.

Mediocre Fortune Inserter Hag

Yesterday I decided to get thai food for lunch. The yellow curry was great. If you happen to be in Burbank California and you want to recover any sickness from a live taping of Jay Leno you should visit "Original Thai Restaurant".

Anyways, I got my fortune cookie and I was excited! I couldn't wait to find out my grand fortune for the future! I gingerly opened it (didn't want to rip my future riches message) and this is what I got:






....A safety tip??? Along with using the wrong form of the word "thing"?

Unbelievable! Fortunes have been getting really lame lately. It would have been nice to see "You will find five bucks under your couch...perhaps" as an alternative.

As I thought about this I slowly realized what has been going on. Mediocre Fortune Inserter Hag has been getting bolder. She takes the good fortunes of unsuspecting victims and replaces them with mediocre fortunes slowly building her personal wealth. I need to be more vigilant.

Ale Demanding Rhino Medieval Version





He wanders the medieval landscape from pub to pub. Wielding an empty mug he demands ale. If his mug is not filled he punishes with his mighty axe. An empty mug makes him grumpy indeed.

Many pubs have been closed because of his consumption or retribution. It is a lose lose if he enters your town. Can anyone stop the Ale Demanding Rhino?
