I'm working on Jace and Nissa. This is going to take some time though. Here, have a Chan for now:

I'm imagining a sketch were Gideon is all anxious to show off his new ride (a Smuggler's Copter daddy almaharet just bought for him - forget the Part about him being an orfan) then when he gets to school, he notices that everybody else also has Smuggler's copters.
Then all of a sudden lightning Falls from the sky and everybody dies.

Or...

Principal Ulamog shows up in his skysouvereign and fries gideon's copter. That sort of thing.

Believe it or not, i have a short scene with Gideon and that damn smuggler's copter (which i hate) but involving Jace, whose control decks are having a hard time with it.

But yeah, that's the idea so thanks for it, really appreciate ;)

Lol Havens idea is perfect and exactly what I'd love to see in a Magic comic

The details are important too, like the door of the copter is closed but you see his whip things stuck in the door, like it's something that just always happens. World building and such...

Basically, they are normal kids, but as the mystery progresses, and they find out more and more about the weird new teachers, they start to develop certain skills and abilities.
I suppose at this point you have to ask 'why use the Gatewatch at all'? I mean if they are normal kids from a normal school with no knowledge of the greater MTG universe then you've basically just got a bunch of kids (and supporting cast) who happen to have their looks inspired by the Gatewatch & Co. If that's all you're looking for then that's fine and dandy but I figure the point in making them the Gatewatch was to draw upon the Magic universe, you know?[/quote]

You are right to ask, and for a while, I couldn't properly put into words what my motivation was in so radical a departure from canon while wanting to use the same characters (sort of). It mostly boils down to two things: juxtaposition and defying expectations.

First, juxtaposition creates comedy by contrasting the known personae of these characters with a comparatively mundane setting. Think of Darth Vader managing a grocery store. Why use Darth Vader if he isn't the dark lord badass we know and love? Because it's so out-of-sorts that it creates a logical dissonance which makes it more funnier.

Juxtaposition: imagine a sinister galactic theocratic inquisition, but their spaceships look like pizzas.

Second, when we have preconceived notions of how these characters think and act, the fun comes in both playing to and against these expectations. We expect Gideon to be the somewhat stubborn, but noble and well-intentioned herp. So, you play up that he's a real standup guy, but then introduce that he's also easily startled by raccoons or something. (Plus, and this is probably just me, but I want to see Gideon Jura with a bad teenage mustache.)

And none of this is to say that things mightn't get more like the canonical plot as things go on. Using Scary Go Round as a comparison, things get more and more outlandish as stories introduce more disparate elements of supernature into the setting. There's no reason an Archie-type Gatewatch Gang couldn't become more fantastical as it progresses.

So rather than "funny", you chose to go "pervy"

Eh, who am I to judge? Everyone has their preferred comedy. And some people also like Adam Sandler.

I find it helps if you think about the WNBA.

Wanted to make her the sexier in the group but also the most naive.

This sh*t is ready. I'm ready :evil:

I like the one longer boot, very cute.

Shouldn't Chandra be the most naive cuz she's the youngest? Maybe not cuz she's been through quite a bit. If Nissa is just chilling in the forest, she would be pretty ignorant of the world, "What's black history month?!"

No way! Chandra is chaos, rebellious, don't give a damn about concequences. Actions!

Nissa is the tenderness, the peaceful keeper of the "mother" land, which would make her the perfect milf. But that is for another story...

But yeah, now that i see her better, i did make Chandra look too young. Will fix her.

Nono! Make her even younger! :)

I like that you made Jace gay, I think it's very in line with blue mages

About Chandra, i don't know if making her a loli will work.

About Jace, come on he isn't gay. He's just a bit confused, that's all.

lol, i was just thinking that if ever that pic is made into an actual Planeswalker card, the title should be: "Jace, Gender Confused"


Also I don't know what a 'loli' is but if it's anything Japanese-related, then yeah that's what I was going for
