I posted this video about Concoction back in January of 2015 on my seemingly dead YouTube account.
At the time, unhappy with the quality of the final product, I decided not to share it far and wide.
And now, I’m sharing it in hopes it might offer a few minutes of distraction for those who have interest in learning a little about False Positive and can brave the poor audio.
I’m pretty sure I have no idea what’s going on now.
lol. Wendigo is all “ugh, fine. i’m out.” For some reason their reaction was really funny to me
Oh my god I absolutely love the imagery in the first panel: Featureless people dressed in rags, their faces absorbed (with bone structure!) into the antlers of the deer they’re reined to by their necks. I don’t understand it, but I cannot stop thinking about it. I’m sad they seem to be gone already! I also wish we got a closer look at their feet. Are they bloody, as I first thought, or tattooed? The lines seem to have symmetry.
Kind of a reverse Santa situation in panel 1.
No face victims….faces collected….Wendigos can shapeshift according to legend…and the colonial French had many friendly associations with Native Americans…friendly to the point sharing ILL REPUTEd pleasures….
And now I recall that “Copain” was the monster from “Ill Repute”. But that name was given to him by the Madame. Did he keep it? Or is there something about him that makes people want to call him that?
Stylized unearthly squids rule!
Ryan has it pegged, and the Wendigo’s handle, “Copain”, had to do with the lordly fellow who recommended him to the house of ill-repute where he wiped the smiles from all the faces.
So, so very creepy … even for this comic.
Creepy, but also very sad, as Legend also says that Wendigo only prey upon the lonely at heart. Prostitution is a paradoxically lonely business.
this one started great but it’s kinda losing me now… i have no idea what’s happening. let’s hope that payoff is good.
Hmm, Rudolph may be Copain from Ill Repute, but seeing his faceless victims tied up by the neck in a string behind him puts me in mind of the goo-chain parasites from Specimen. Coincidence, misdirection, or connection?
