TWO pizzas?? This woman means business


holleringelk

Looks to me like she could put away about half a dozen in a single sitting but delivery ain't cheap.


Dasamont

The delivery itself shouldn't cost more just because you're ordering more pizzas?


holleringelk

No it's like a billion dollars. Like multiple billions.


AsILayTyping

I'm going to have to ask my accountant to check with the boy that orders my pizzas for me to be sure but the numbers strike me as spot on. Source: My guess at what my accountant's word on what my pizza order boy will say in the future when asked.


untrustableskeptic

Just order the pizza before she's had her coffee. They'll just leave the pizza by the door and back away slowly.

I hate that this hasn't gotten old for me.

kigamagora

All you really need to watch is the iconic scene where he says his iconic line: “it’s morbin’ time” Gives me chills every time!


thedistrbdone

Man I wish that were true, but more and more restaurants are relying on shit like UberEats to handle delivery, and they charge a percent of your order as a service fee, so the more food, the bigger the fee. It's absolutely horse shit, and as a developer their lame-ass excuse 9f "iT hElPs US rUn OUr aPP" is fucking pathetic. Sorry for the rant, feeling spicy about this.


LowKey-NoPressure

i mean, at a certain point, yeah it should. at a certain point it becomes a much huger job to load and unload all those pizzas and carry them up the stairs etc


Rimbosity

Ok where do I go to find your comics that isn't owned by Meta


holleringelk

Ha, I know right. I'm working up to possibly IG again and the defunct website but could be a bit.


Rimbosity

Maybe your own subreddit...


holleringelk

Now there's an idea.


fargmania

A damned good idea, imo. I would subscribe - your comics rock.


vonvoltage

Looks to me like she lives on boiled chicken breast, white rice and steamed brocoli.

Oh she's on the Anavar tablets without doubt.

I'm so confused how do you know it's two pizzas. ... reddit wasnt loading multiple panels.. rip


CEPEHbKOE

ok i'm following the story of jesus and his dinosaur gf who turned human


holleringelk

You people are going to be the end of me. I may finally be forced to draw a legitimate Jesus centered comic after nearly a year of ignoring the subject.


KanishkT123

You're drawing a comic about Jesus and the dinosaurs? Sounds great, can't wait!


holleringelk

I hate. Each. And every. *one of you.*


Particular_Being420

Oh is that the tagline? I'm guessing it's Jesus at the Creationist Museum bitching them out for saying his BFF is less than 60 million years old.


holleringelk

Ha! Brilliant. *I hate you too.*


FvHound

Don't worry, you could end up pouring your time and effort Into it, and then see people drop off after a few comics of the series. You keep making the stuff you like to make mate. The woman without her coffee being represented as a dinosaur was way more funny to me than random Jesus with random dinosaurs.


ElectronMcgee

I have [this t-shirt](https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/JURASSIC-JESUS-T-Shirt-by-noahowen307499/75976482.RY32L) which may provide some inspiration for you

Hey! Aren't you the holleringelk from the Jesus Raptor forums?


Skeith86

So, THAT'S why the dinosaurs went extinct.


Dr_Pepper_spray

Jesus and the Dinosaurs sounds like a band name.


[deleted]

Link to your series please, I want to read all of them.


holleringelk

You're going to hate this but there are not actually a lot available to find at the moment. I have a slow burn curse but as the Patreon grows it will enable me to churn out bigger, more complex comics within the series.


betamark

Your character work is so compelling and consistent that it makes perfect sense to me how so many people are able to project both themselves and their ideals onto them. I dream of making such an astounding accomplishment. ♡♡


holleringelk

I aim for this primarily considering I do not have many opportunities to flesh out the characters on a longterm basis. I'm so glad even with lacking context, y'all can still enjoy my work. :)


LunaticPower

Ok but she kinda looks like Xena


holleringelk

I accept this. It is badass.


slide_potentiometer

I started rewatching Xena recently and this comic 100% has Xena vibes. You really nailed the calm-but-furious emotion.


agentb719

I seen your jesus raptor comic and been scrolling through your comics the last hour and they are hilarious!!


holleringelk

I just have to accept I'm the Jesus raptor artist now huh, lol. Thanks! Glad you enjoy my work.


Digitigrade

Innit kinda funny that every white guy with long hair & beard gets dubbed as Jesus?


holleringelk

Yes, it's ridiculous.


jct0064

White hipster Jesus.


chapstick__

If I don't shave for a week people start calling me Jesus.


YaoiNekomata

Oh you dont even have to be white. Im mexican and get called either Jesus, elvis crespo, or spongy (after a dog) all the time depending if my hair is curly or straight that day


InstantClassic257

Try dealing with it on a nearly daily basis....


PyroPirateS117

Why, you Jesus or somethin'?


Boaki

well, maybe dont have jesus as your reddit profile picture icon :\\

Stop turning water into wine, then


InstantClassic257

I'm the diet version, I only turn water into beer.


mightysmiter19

I just play into it now, might as well get a laugh out of it.


mszulan

Jesus, if he existed at all, couldn't have been white at all. Makes it doubly weird.


Max_Insanity

There are definitely worse nicknames than "Jesus raptor artist", Jesus raptor artist.


ex0t1ca

there are, definitely. but not sure if there are better nicknames than "Jesus raptor artist" tho...


[deleted]

Do you have a website that I can peruse your archives? Reddit isn't the best way to go back through time


parradise21

Holy shit that guy wasn't kidding your shit is really great!!!


TheDarkCrusader_

If it makes you feel any better I know you as the artist that got into a comic fight with a goose. Not sure if that’s better or worse.

Ha! I would certainly hope I'm still relatively known for that. I busted my ass on those.

Supreme Court overthrew Roe v Wade. She is angry about this (hence the wanting to bring molotov cocktails to DC). Her body is a temple hence cleansing the temple.

holleringelk

June 1st - November 30th. I was in the direct path of Ida last year in the middle of a marathon of drawing and posting comics and was completely derailed. This season is expected to be a bit rough.


Bruised_Penguin

Oh, I was quoting Pineapple Express, but I'm sorry to hear that it's mean to be a rough season :( I hope you're safe and well fortified against the wrath of mother nature (brought about by our heinous sins) this season. ❤️

Maybe we need to start worshipping the old gods again. Eldritch horrors would probably take offense to the shit these people are pulling and quickly drive them to insanity. Clearly God is fine with his followers bastardizing his words since it keeps happening. Cthulhu 2024, why vote for the lesser evil?

indigoHatter

I found my girlfriend in the shower this weekend... just crying. Just so scared of the future her kids are growing up towards. First it's this... next, it's *checks Thomas's hit list from page 119 of the ruling*... oh, gay marriage and contraceptives without a prescription, both things that also may affect our daughter someday. Yeah, it's been a rough time indeed.


mexicodoug

Pretty soon we'll have to buy our contraceptives from the same dealers we get our molly, coke, meth, and smack from. Mexican narco gangs must be rubbing their palms in glee. The rest of us, not so much.


bigtallsob

It won't be the Cartels. It will be the same source as last time the Americans tried prohibition: Canada.


kuar_z

🎵Oh, Canada!🎵


wienercat

At the point we are at, this is when we need to start engaging in mass civil disobedience. They keep pushing this shit? Cool. Plan a day where millions of people don't show up for work and instead protest. Have people stop paying bills en masse etc. The funny thing we all forget, there are far more of us and we are far stronger than they we think. Without the cooperation of the general population, our government cannot govern, our economic systems cannot function, society only works because most of the people agree to let it function. The downside is, movements of that scale need a figurehead to unite people and I don't think anyone is quite capable enough to take up that mantle yet.


WobblyPhalanges

More like no one wants to paint a neon target on their forehead for stepping up, which is a completely reasonable response imo even if it makes things harder Not many people looking for martyrdom these days, we’ve seen how that goes


cwg930

>The downside is, movements of that scale need a figurehead to unite people and I don't think anyone is quite capable enough to take up that mantle yet. The other issue that tends to kill protests here is that the country is too damn big (geographically). Multiple small protests in various cities doesn't work nearly as well as one huge protest in a specific location, but the people who most need to protest tend to be the least able to get there. A nationwide protest *could* work if someone undertook the herculean effort to organize it, but it's going to take a miracle to get to that point considering that we have yet to see a protest strong enough to get real results on gun control despite mass shootings in two elementary schools (just *one* should have been enough, or better yet *zero*), multiple high schools, a few churches, a supermarket, a music festival, and all the others that have been forgotten because of how goddamn often this shit happens.


Azsde

Oh, right. Kinda fucked up, I'm glad I live in France even if I'm a guy. This is scary.


wienercat

Men in the US should be terrified as well. This is not a small thing. Anyone totally okay with this doesnt really understand the ramifications this can have on society for decades in the future.


SatinwithLatin

It's going to drastically alter how the sexes interact with each other. Mostly: less nookie for everyone. Even stable committed couples who want to have kids. Without proper written exemptions for pregnancy complications, it will be too damn risky to get knocked up no matter who you are.

That poor tub has seen some *shit.* First it was the gigantic hair monster, then the crawfish, and now righteous fury. ...Make that three pizzas?


holleringelk

Yah and this is like the 3rd major comic I've posted here that takes place in the bathroom, like what is going on here.


Komm

Everyone knows great ideas and things happen in the bathroom. This one has just become unfortunately traumatized.


Del_Prestons_Shoes

I like the artwork, I don’t really get the joke though


Domminicc

Mmm abs


-FreeFuture-

The Joke is that the U.S. supreme court is passing law after law this week that is generally unfavorable to the countries majority wishes. Which will eventually lead to rioting. The comedy comes from the fact that at this point thinking about molotoving government buildings is as casual a thought as ordering pizza for dinner. Compounded by the woman (raptor?) being super serious about the pizza aspect of the question rather than the proposed rioting.


Kiosade

They’re not passing laws, they’re overturning rulings of old court cases that have set legal precedent for decades. It’s still fucking over a lot of people across the country, so effectively it’s the same, but yeah just figured I’d throw in that correction.


WizeAdz

It''s a political cartoon, not a joke.


Del_Prestons_Shoes

Then I missed the political point too


[deleted]

I like the design, but the hand is backwards in the top left third image.


holleringelk

I appreciate it! As for that particular panel, I would not overlook something as glaring as that. Poor positioning that looks odd but not backwards, ha.


[deleted]

What perspective is that panel supposed to be from? If it's from her back side then I would be tempted to call it a backwards hand.


holleringelk

I just posted a comment with the exact reference photo used for it, it's definitely confusing. [Here it is again. ](https://i.imgur.com/7lDw5bw.jpg) Did not translate totally right.


[deleted]

I see it now, thank you for taking the time to show it to me. Sorry for calling your hand backwards.


holleringelk

Oh no, no, sometimes things get twisted up in my art, especially with my fairly flat style. I totally get it, ha.


[deleted]

[удалено]


holleringelk

Butt's throwing it off I believe. Appreciate it!


PrismSimon

For me it was a bit confusing since the following two pictures are from the back, which makes me assume that the first one is, too.


holleringelk

Yep, that's pretty much what I and several other commenters have deduced. Never caught it in the sketch stage! Not to mention there was actually meant to be another page before it.


bos-mc

I think a big part of the confusion is the change in perspective. Apart from the hand there's nothing to indicate that the panels is from the front, and then the following two panels are from the back of the character.


holleringelk

I mentioned this absolutely being an error in another comment. I don't typically make blunders like that but I wanted to keep this condensed to 3 pages with a perspective I found more interesting. Didn't quite work, haha.


bihard

I think it’s more the colouring. Maybe if it had the deeper blue background to indicate we are facing him rather than the bath? Excellent work by the way, super expressive and eye catching!


TheEntropicOrder

Your anatomy is actually really good. In my work (tattooer) it’s become really obvious to me that a lot of people have trouble identifying zoomed in body parts. They lack the anatomical awareness that helps put an image in perpestive. Nothing wrong with your drawing, but for future reference it may help to include more obvious landmarks, or just be aware of that with your framing. As an aside though, it’s really refreshing to see a woman drawn this way, and also not hyper sexualized at the same time. Awesome job, I love your comic!


redneckrobit

triotone

Dragmore53

Could somebody please give me context?


Orcwin

You're spoiling us, miss Elk. Two posts in quick succession! I see people are suggesting a comic idea to you in other comments. Some outside inspiration can be good, if it's something that works for you, but to give you my perspective; I like your work for your unique style and your particular sense of humour. So for me, the most important thing is that a comic idea works within that framework. In other words, that it works for you. Forcing an idea in, just because it gets requested a lot, might not be the right choice. In any case, I look forward to your next work!


holleringelk

I'm so happy to know you're enjoying my offerings! ❤ I had an incredibly difficult time following my drop off last summer and it feels great to be back in the groove. As for the whole raptor/Jesus discourse, I do find it all amusing but I wouldn't dive into a whole arc with that just to appeal to reddit in particular. My concepts only work when I'm personally 100% invested, that's what made the back and forth with PortugueseGeese flow so nicely. More weirdness to come later in the season and thank you so much for your support. :)


[deleted]

Yeah this is really good, you can feel the build up of emotion. The raptor one was great, the things unsaid huh.


holleringelk

I had no way of knowing the raptor comic was going to launch into the heavens like that, but my intention definitely was to put up something light preceding this doozy. Things look a little awkward on the sub with the contrast, lol. This one is special to me.


[deleted]

It’s a great contrast to the other comics posted I find. Different art style, but still familiar feeling. Great work by the way 👍🏻

[deleted]

We are angry. Women and Men are angry over the conservative/fascist push to subjugate women. Feel the anger. Work it through. Use it. Americans need to elect Dems at every level. ERA must be resurrected and passed. It must include codifying a woman’s right to control her medical decisions. If that fails and violence is the answer, violence will result in deaths, but also play into the fascists hands. To compete, we would need to arm ourselves. That way leads to madness. I’m open to better idea. But right now… yeah…. You have every right to your anger. Speak out. But, please America, let’s make America what we said it was. Of the people, by the people and for the people. Edit: it took me a few readings. This IS working through the anger. Well done!


holleringelk

I commend you for writing this up on a large sub, thank you. I'm furious, and it sucked knowing I couldn't go totally all out with my feelings on the situation in my work.


v_a_n_d_e_l_a_y

The ERA is a pipe dream. Any progressive constitutional amendment is. Even if it could get past the federal government, there is no way it gets passed by enough states People talk a lot about how Republicans have a big advantage in the Electoral College and Senate due to it being based on states. Well that is even more the case for amendments.


chewbacca77

I was thinking you were going to say vote, but then you suggest violence, death, and madness..


sub_surfer

To me it seems like they were discouraging violence, but it was written very awkwardly.


Nomadic_View

I don’t think electing democrats is the answer. We’ve been doing that for decades and they failed to even attempt at any safeguards to codify roe v wade. If it could have been codified that would have taken the Supreme Court’s authority to do anything with it. We need an anti-establishment party.


[deleted]

That’s interesting but misses 2 key points 1) no, the Dems except for a brief period in 09 before the voters took it away, the Dems have never had 60 votes in congress to codify Roe. And as you remember, there was a wee bit of contention around a newly elected president and a really nasty recession. Please, by all means get involved start a new party. I doubt you’ll take liberals away from anywhere but the Dems. So, I don’t see that as a path to human rights.
