Kevin Maher-30 Characters in 30 Days

Well since everyone else was doing this I thought I should too! (thanks for the template!) This was my first 30 Characters Challenge and I’m pretty happy with what I’ve created. I actually learned a lot, some quicker photoshop coloring, some shortcuts, and the ability to create characters in an instant. I have been planning on launching my own webcomic, but I was worried about time constraints. This whole challenge taught me that it is completely doable and I have nothing to worry about. Some of these characters will totally be used. It was also interesting to see what characters people found interesting. What creators found interesting was totally different than what my non-artist friends liked. And some things I loved no one else did. Overall I am very happy I did this.

I hope you enjoyed my work. See you in the funny pages!

#30 Turmoil

This is it! Number 30! Turmoil has no powers except some exceptional riding skills. The motorcycle however is actually an artificial intelligence, sort of like KITT on Knight Rider. It has all sorts of gadgets and weapons. Turmoil just calls him “Arty” for short.

#29 The Greek Tragedy

The Greek Tragedy is a zombie trio of three Greek Myths. Icarus, The Minotaur, and the Cyclops. An evil wizard created them and they exist to do his bidding, plus they crave brains. Yup, Greek myths and zombies together= awesome.

#28 Syndy & Sam

Sam is a resident genius for a government think tank. He created a synthetic female soldier that he called “Syndy” (Cindy + Synthetic). When they tried to dissect and clone her, Same and Syndy escaped. They are on the run from the government still, Sam is pretty much a coward and Syndy protects him like a big sister. She has advanced agility, strength, intelligence and fighting prowess.

#27 Mech Mary

Mech Mary is the pilot of a giant mech, she is the only female pilot in her unit but also the most gifted and talented. The mech takes on the personality and mannerisms of the pilot, it’s like an extension of that individual. She’s pretty “girly”, likes the color pink and shopping. So it makes the mech’s mannerisms pretty interesting.

#26 Lineage

This is Lineage, he has the ability to access anyone related to him in history and/or future. So for example he needs brute strength, he morphs into his caveman ancestor who is clearly stronger. If he needs computer skills he accesses his future self who is a complete slacker computer nerd, etc. Though sometimes it does backfire, he might morph into his ancestor who is a pirate for sailing knowledge and realizes that his ancestor is completely evil. He must now fight to regain control and try to morph back into himself. The new person has his own mind but Lineage’s mind also stays active. Sorta of like Professor Stein does with Firestorm. He’s like a guardian telling the new body what they need to do.

#25 The White Shade

An actual superhero and not a villain this time! This is The White Shade, mysterious, silent and deadly. No one knows who he is and where he comes from. He’s a master of stealth and prefers handguns and small knives over bigger weapons. He might have powers but no one is actually sure.

#24 The Wall

The Wall is a failed pro wrestler. Addicted to steroids and HGH he was repeatedly in and out of trouble. He was approached by a “friend” who said he had some new stuff that would make him the next greatest thing in wrestling. He ended up trying these experimental steroids, but they completely morphed his body. He grew to enormous size and his muscles grew super dense. He now gets hired as protection for super criminals, since no one can get past The Wall!

#23 The Unbroken

This is The Unbroken, he is from an alien race who travel the galaxy conquering weaker races. He is covered in fur, war paint, has claws, and a primal scream that can incapacitate his opponents. He is called The Unbroken because he has never been beaten, ever. He’s an unstoppable force.

#22 The Tail

This is The Tail (yes, another supervillian). Possessed by an ancient spirit totem of a lizard on an archeological dig, his skin and eyes turned reptilian. He designed a mechanical tail that is powered by magic. He also uses other weapons such as whips, chains, anything that resembles a tail really.
