#10 Kitty of “Kitty and the Skyfoxes”
#10 Kitty (science fiction/anthropomorphic cartoon characters) In the far future there are the Skyfoxes, space rangers for the IDF (Interplanetary Defense Force). The Skyfoxes’ newest recruit is Kitty, a cat person. She is placed in squad number 42, an all female fox squad. The foxes distrust Kitty’s ability to be a ranger; but may change their mind after Kitty joins them is a number of missions. Kitty herself is a go-getter type of person, energitic and full of enthusiasm. Her rushing around trying to prove herself will likely land her in trouble, but that might change with some experience. Also, Kitty has a boy friend, Red (“Big Red”, who will be seen in a later post).
Kitty and the Skyfoxes is another series of characters I’ve created but as yet haven’t done anything with them. If I start up a webcomic then this series might be a good choice to try.
10 characters on November 10th — all right!!!!
#10: The Runner With Invisible Legs
Text reads:
“Running’s a sport which is tricky to do
for the man with invisible legs.
And yet it’s the thing that he wants to pursue
(although stares are the thing that he dreads).
In winter he wears long tights and socks tall;
his transparent limbs are no problem.
Summer presents a whole new obstacle,
(but he thinks he knows how to solve ’em!)
He’ll battle the heat the one way that he can:
by baring his legs and wearing a spray tan!”
#10: The Devil
This is The Devil. He’s in The Supers, too, but he’s half good and half bad. The other team members don’t know if they should trust him.
Thanks, Xavier
#10: Rock Solid
Real Name: Tyler Hamlin
Age: 15
Powers: Arms made of brick-like material, allowing him enhanced strength.
Character info: I was a teenager when I first got the idea to make a character named “Rock Solid”. I just had the name in my head, nothing else. About 10 years ago, I got the idea to create a superhero team and an early version of Rock Solid came to life. This version was a college student, however, and he looked more like he belonged to Marvel’s Wrecking Crew. While I had a pretty solid idea for that particular team, I scrapped the idea, but the name has always stuck with me.
When I decided to reimagine the character for this challenge, I got the idea to add him to a team of teen superheroes I created. I’ve been kicking a graphic novel idea around in my head involving this team, so I want to establish the roster. The idea for Rock Solid’s look just came to me as I drew it actually. He’s a cocky, sarcastic guy who suddenly has all this power. He’ll be a great addition to the team and he’ll really be tested when times get tough…
#7 Tuff Stuff
She may look frail and non-threatening, but this tiny dynamo packs a wallop. The strongest member of the team, Merissa (Tuff-stuff or “Tuff†for short), possesses strength that has yet to be limit-tested. She has raised buildings, pushed locomotives, and lifted naval vessels off their moorings. She is impervious to damage of all kinds as her cells are unusually bonded to one another in a way that has mystified science. Her hair can of course not be cut, and oddly has not grown since her powers manifested themselves, (something Tuff is not a fan of). Like Mosh, Merissa first became an abuser of her powers, but her morality got the better of her and over the past year she has begun setting her past to right.
She is also fluent in French and loves her dog.
(PS – Happy Birthday Melissa!)
#7 Stiff dude
OMG I’ma redesign him later, told myself I was gonna keep going even if I have “off” days DX
09 – SPUNGE!
… continued from Character #8, СУПЕРЗВЗДР…
…the ever-expanding SPUNGE!
The Secret Soldiers led by the Gold Gladiator, whose public identity as Senator Trent Day was covered up by rumors of a debilitating illness that rendered him unable to effectively represent the people of Michigan in the U.S. Senate, executed a number of clandestine operations during the first years of their existence taking on the growing threat posed by Korvus Kain and his murderous henchmen and thwarting a number of international, super power related, incidents. Their presence, once a national secret relegated to conspiracy theories, became publicly known when the first American not present at the Danaian encounter manifested extra-normal abilities.
Sandra “Sandy†Summers hadn’t been feeling well and had acquired a rather obnoxious cough. She wasn’t going to let a little thing like that stop her from enjoying a day at the lake on the beach. While lying in the sun, Sandy started coughing uncontrollably. A stranger gave her a drink of water between convulsions. The water helped and Sandy stopped coughing but realized how thirsty she had become. She found a water fountain and began drinking, and drinking, and drinking. While her thirst was marginally quenched, Sandy started to grow and change; absorbing all of the water she had been imbibing.
When the water fountain began to sputter, Sandy became enraged and with he new found size and strength, tore the fixture from the ground and bellowed for more water. Turning she saw something that could quench her thirst, the lake. Shambling toward the body of water, leaving large wet foot prints behind, Sandy waded out into the water and immediately began to grow. Sandy’s altered appearance loss more humanity and gained more mass the more water she absorbed; and she soaked up a lot of water.
The beach born behemoth posed a threat to not only the people running for safety but for the nearby city as Sandy absorbed more water. In B-movie tradition, the National Guard was brought in to deal with this human sponge. When they proved ineffective, the U.S. government saw no alternative short of sending in the Secret Soldiers, though redubbing them the FIVE POINTS of FREEDOM for this public appearance. With a combination of distraction, for none of the super soldiers could harm the water-logged menace, and a surgical strike to Sandy’s mutated brain, executed by Gold Gladiator and Ms. Mercury, the team toppled the titan, who shriveled down to human size and returned the lake water to its rightful place.
The Spunge was taken into custody and the Five Points of Freedom became national heroes, more so when the Gold Gladiator’s identity was revealed. Though the first new extra human, the Spunge was hardly the last. The Five Points faced another unusual challenge when they faced…

She has enhanced running abilities and able to run around the world in over two hours according the Guinness world record. Her real name is Utende Samonto.

No. 10- Rebecca Rodriguez
Name: Rebecca Rodriguez
Age: 25
Ethnicity: Puerto Rican- American
Occupation: Necromancer, Head of the Shadows, Revenge Seeker, Demon Slayer
Short Background:
Rebecca never really stood out in high school. She was a wallflower that people barely noticed. Even when they did notice her, it was usually to mock her.
Despite being an outcast, Rebecca was able to find happiness with young man named Karl Lawson. Karl respected Rebecca’s mind and saw past her awkward personality. Rebecca looked past the fact that he was fused with a demon. For three years, there was a happiness in her life that she never wanted to end.
That was before Karl’s demon gained control and ate her family the day after prom. Her innocence died with them.
For the next seven years, Rebecca dedicated her life to training so that she could gain revenge on her ex-boyfriend. She studied several dark arts as well as joining the Shadows, a ninja clan in Kyoto Town. Despite not usually allowing outsiders in, the master sensed a strong drive within her. After joining, Rebecca began honing her body into a finely tuned instrument of death. She also began slowly moving up the ranks with in the Clan. It was only a matter of time before she took her place as the head of the clan after the Master died under strange circumstances.
Now, with the Shadows at her command and all of the power she possess, Rebecca just has to wait for the right moment to strike.
Design:
Rebecca likes to be very mysterious and because of this she wears a lot of cloaks and dark colors. She will wear different outfits depending on her mood. If she is solely there to observe, she will usually wear a dress or something very fashionable. However, if she is in the mood to get involved then you will see her wearing pants and practical fighting attire. She wears her hair long, but usually in a pony tail or a bun.

06 – Dr. Amanda Gonzales
Widely regarded as the world’s greatest living scientist – Dr. Amanda Gonzales is one of the most gifted minds in the whole of history. Completing her first PHD at the age of 15, she went on to achieve three more before deciding to focus on her research. Her most famous tool, is of course, her omni-purpose suit. In itself, it is an ingredibly ingenious piece of equiptment, but it is also infused with Dr. Gonzales advanced nanite technology – and which can be customised o nthe fly at the atomic level.
Although very iconic, the suit is merely a means to an end – it allows her to traverse any environment imaginable – high in the air, deep space, ocean ravines, the centre of the earth, alternate dimensions, planets with poisonous atmosphere, and shrink down to travel around a body at a cellular level and many more. It is also allows her to do the odd bit of superheroics from time to time, and she is known to lend aid readily to most who ask it of her. Most of the time however, she spends in the lad, planning where she will explore next!
For this character, I really wanted to create a pulpy-science superhero in the veign of Reed Richards or Hank Pym – someone who does crazy science and superheroics. Most of those characters are middle aged white males, so I thought it would be a little more diverse to have a non-white woman. The suit is perhaps a little Iron-man like, but it’s more designed for exploration than combat, although the properties it has for some of the more extreme functions of that are certainly helpful.
#9 Sleezy Shuster
My Internet was down yesterday, so I wasn’t able to post an entry. I’ll make up for it with a double-post today.

#10 – Ice Maiden
This one was based on drawing done several years ago, lost in my stash of archived art. Not 100% happy with the pose but I think it’s pretty successful. Enjoy!
#10 – The Living No-One
Anyone who know me, knows how big a fan of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World characters I am. In particular the design of Darkseid – if I get sketches from artists, it tends to be of this character.
When we started working on the Hero Code, I really wanted a big, malevolent character in the background, up to no good, out to destroy the universe – this is my Darkseid, and Jonathan nailed it!
When I saw this design my first though was “wow!” followed quickly by “this would make a great action figure!”
One day…. one day…
#10-Nitro Jackson!
Watch out, Jive Turkeys!
I’m hoping to do some mini-comics and maybe a full story with this guy and his anthropomorphic struggles against the Man. (or, you know..talking rabbit and the like)
#10 Saren lor-Esan
Magician in training. Orphan.
Vessel of the gods.

#10 – Sean Messinger
Sean Messinger has a rare and terrifying ability – he is a pyrokinetic, born with the ability to create and control fire.
His early years with the power were difficult, and not without their tragedies. He learned to control it, however, and with that came a fierce love of order and creativity. He came to view his power not as an uncontrollable force of destruction, but an ability with the potential to create. In his free time, he makes art. He welds metal sculptures and woodburning, as well as some painting and ceramics. He sells what he makes in his online shop, which gets him a nice amount of pocket money.
During the day, he is a librarian in the historical Fairport City library. He does the varied and complex jobs that a librarian does, including taking care of special exhibitions such as the display of historical journals that are on display in the library’s exhibit hall.
When a fire breaks out in the hall, he thinks he’s the only one who can deal with it quickly. What he discovers, however, will change his life forever.
Read his story in A Reason to Burn.
Minerva Martenskin
Minerva is a runaway. After her mother died, Minerva’s father remarried almost immediately. Minerva’s step mother was verbally and emotionally abusive. The only solace she had was when she helped out an old colleague of her mothers by cleaning his lab. Dr. Herkema, who took a shining to her, gave her a hand knit scarf the night before he was murdered in his lab. He also gave Minerva the control for an ancient giant machine. Minerva was the only witness to the murder, she also was the one who killed the assailant (Though she doesn’t know how). Now she’s on the run, from her family, from the government, and from a multitude of organizations who want control over “the machine”. But what is it?
#9 – Beddesh Ajaki
So far in the future that the human mind cannot readily conceive of it, the universe will be largely empty. The hotter, larger stars will burn out, the galaxies will slowly depopulate, and all that will be left will be the black holes and the red dwarfs.
Known by astronomers to be the longest-lived of all stars, red dwarfs potentially have lifespans that are longer than the current age of the universe. When this universe ends, they’ll be the last to go.
Whatever intelligent life still exists at this time will likely cluster around these stars, building amazing structures to catch every last bit of solar energy they can in a desperate bid to sustain their civilizations just that much longer. But as long-lived as these stars are, they’re not immortal. One day, even the red dwarfs will fail.
The star known as Alpha Aurelius has hosted a human civilization for thousands of years. The star is surrounded by a technological basketwork of energy collectors and residences. People from hundreds of worlds journeyed there with the hope of making a better life. Beddesh Ajaki is one of eleven administrators of Aurelius, and is an expert in navigating the byzantine bureaucracy that has emerged in an attempt to fight the certainty of existential extinction.
When the Nightfinder arrives from the now-extinct Delta-b Cygnus and asks to join them, Ajaki makes sure that the ship and its residents are welcomed with open arms. However, he manages to withhold one very important secret from them until it is too late….
#8 – Atris Parkell
So far in the future that the human mind cannot readily conceive of it, the universe will be largely empty. The hotter, larger stars will burn out, the galaxies will slowly depopulate, and all that will be left will be the black holes and the red dwarfs.
Known by astronomers to be the longest-lived of all stars, red dwarfs potentially have lifespans that are longer than the current age of the universe. When this universe ends, they’ll be the last to go.
Whatever intelligent life still exists at this time will likely cluster around these stars, building amazing structures to catch every last bit of solar energy they can in a desperate bid to sustain their civilizations just that much longer. But as long-lived as these stars are, they’re not immortal. One day, even the red dwarfs will fail.
The star Delta-b Cygnus hosted a large and busy civilization, long-descended from humans. When its starkeepers decided that its life was at an end, they set loose the diaspora. Ships left in all directions, each one hoping that they would somehow come across another inhabited star somewhere in the vast, empty universe.
Atris Parkell captains the Nightfinder, a legacy ship that spent years journeying through trans-luminal space to find a new home. They finally found Alpha Aurelius, a star trapped in a web of advanced technology. The residents of Aurelius were more than happy to take in the travelers, but they did so without revealing some very important information…
# 10 – Warf
Warf is the remnant of a sentient comet which met with disaster above the earth when it collided with a rogue asteroid. The bulk of the comet eventually became enmeshed in the asteroid belt beyond Mars. (You’ll meet him later – his name is Sterry.) A small chunk of the comet fell to earth. Warf retains some sentience, and acts somewhat as a gatekeeper for the Other Land. He can’t converse, but understands what is said to him.
<Creator comments:Â The second of two Star Trek coincidences: Warf’s name is very similar to Klingon Worf.>
[In 1974, at the age of 12, I drew a series of “comic books” detailing the adventures of Merrill, a 15-year-old human boy, in the Other Land, an invisible dimension which co-exists with our own. The characters I am submitting throughout the 30 Days are the inhabitants of the Other Land.]
#6 & 7 – Sprocket & Scratch
Long after the demise of Mankind, small mammals have taken over the Earth once again. Unfortunately for Rodent kind, cats survived too. Meet two participants in the violent war between felines and rodents.
Sprocket – Anti-social mechanical genius, tasked with the maintenance and programming of the Mekat fleet. He’s also a rat.
Scratch – Mark II Lynx Mekat, an autonomous robotic feline programmed with the thought processes of a basset hound. Ten times the strength, speed and agility of a biological cat but with the loyalty and intelligence of a hunting dog.
