Things are heating up at the studio, so to let off a little steam and get ready for the insanity of Comic-Con next week, we've got our first Steel Cage Match here at the 'metti!
Four men will enter and only one will come out victorious!
JJ "The Fresh One" KIRBY
MICHAEL "Boom-Boom" LOPEZ
OLIVER "Fierce" NOME and
FRANCIS "Undefeated" MANAPUL
Francis was the first one to enter the 'metti challenge way back in January '05 and has gone on to win his second battle to remain undefeated. Can he do it again?
Will Iron Gelatomettista rookie-winners, Oliver and Michael make a repeat?
Or will JJ finally win after losing one,two,three,four times?
Post ONE character you'd like to see them all draw and they'll enter the ring at 5:00pm today to see who comes out on top!

I've been on a Hellboy bender as of late. So that would be cool. Or hows about Black Bolt?
How about Mr. T...or Storm...or Mr. T dressed like Storm...or Storm dressed like Mr. T...

TIMES UP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bendis as green lantern
anybody want to take bets on who will win?
i always go for the underdogs so i'll say jj or pick out the 2 with the highest votes
btw how much time do you have to draw
who are you creators rooting for?
who's the one who thinks he will win the most?
nevermind i know its 1 hour
a half hour to go !!!!!!
i'm curious, what are the fans on here doing during this hour
are you an artist who is also joining in?
are you like me going through your comic-con schedual that you printed out online from the SDCC site?
what are you doing?
come on guys lets have this be more interactive, it'll be fun
this is also a good time to ask these guys a question each
10 MINUTES!!!!!!
ALRIGHT, THAT'S IT!
PENCILS DOWN!!!!!!
who did they draw?
don't know yet
so who are you rooting for?
and what are you doing while waiting?
and which character would you pick?
is it over? i would have suggested spawn for the hell of it. and i have no idea who i am rooting for.
francis would do a good spawn
oh and i'm at work watching client servers and surfin the net.
Eddie should be posting the images soon from what I've been told. I'm excited to see what the other guys did!!!
oh! its not over i guess their just waiting on the others
fjm who are you rooting for?
and how do you know, are u a part of it?
broneal,
ooooooooooo exciting :)
damn, I wanted to see them battle it out over Scott Pilgrim..
0.o?
that would have been cool
i'm guessing broneal doesn't know scott pilgrim
bro' just pick up a copy you should like it
well, it's been 22 minutes now, i hope something soon
boring.... :)
anybody got any questions for these guys?
heh, c'mon comikxguy, it'd be less annoying if we had some SP action to look forward to ;)
oops, meant boring, not annoying... three beers into the afternoon...
no doubt man :) hell, erik larsen digs it
so whatcha doing right now?
that'll do it :) layoff the sauce man and read some comic books :)
besides getting sh!t-faced:)
I am actually working on a script for one currently... who says drunken accountants sufferign from multiple mtn biking injuries can't do up some comics.
if yer bored check out www.alpineunderground.com and tell me how much you hate 'em :)
and I won't hear another bad word said about being 'sh!t faced,' 'shnockered,' 'blitzed,' or Scott Pilgrim iron chef action!
... damnit, still too early for the bars..
will do but why you change your handle?
good luck, really :)
um...ok :)
this steel cage match is intense!
no doubt! yyyyyyyaaaaaawwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnn:)

yup, i'd say by 7:00pm

i was just there readin' erik larsen's new post
hey fjn are you still here?
i guess they never announced what character(s) they were going to draw?
well they are located in el cajon so they are in "real time"
i guess it takes way longer than we think

hey guys, well the subject was Hellboy... I'm on pins and needles much like you guys waiting for the post! I'm pumped to see what the guys did.. We've all been finished since a quarter to 9 but it probably took a bit of time scaning all of their images and stuff. Just be patient.
hell no man, here's my monthly pull list: New Avengers, Ultimate X-Men, Amazing Spiderman, New X-Men, Thunderbolts, Pirates of COney Isle, DMZ, Gen 13, American Virgin, Casanova...
That's it for now I think...

Unfortunately, I had to finish some work before posting everything, but thanks for keeping the spot warm while you guys waited.
We all got a big kick out of Francis' piece and you can be sure everyone's gone out to the art store to buy some colored paper for the next challenge. ; )
Anyway, voting's open all weekend, but keep an eye out for some new Comic-Con posts as we get ready for the show!
