Because I have an awkward floppy drive and disk drive that decides when it does and doesn't want to work, I had to wait until I burned a CD on the other computer to show them. Did these a while ago, but essentially, it was a prologue to a short PO comic I wanted to do, but then I got work from Arcana, and then I got sick, and then I exploded into candy.
Nothing SPECTACULAR, and the four AU(Alt. Universe) PO's shown are GaAz, Reaper, Ming, and Poo-Ting; course...the names for their AU's are (in order of how I listed them): Void, Grimm Reaper(What a change! He was mostly just going to be called Reaper), Tritan, and...well...Poo-Ting.

The premise of this was that these three PO's were hired by Poo-Ting to a planet in the center of the universe where an interdimensional gateway was opening up(the galaxy that this planet in was collapsing within itself from events that were going to be revealed as the crappy/generic story progressed). Minitopia(AU's Miniopia) had had all of it's natural elements drained from it when Poo-Ting stole the "heart of the planet"(which is why he looks all dragony). So yeah. EVENTUALLY, the "heart" was losing power, so Poo-Ting decides that he and his hired generals would waltz into Miniopia and drain the planet--- and then insert numerous PO's (from THIS universe); then there were going to be other PO's from the AU that pop in. Insert numerous PO cameos, and probably a lame, poorly written story, and that was the comic.
ANYWHO! So here are the pages, now that I've bored you

((NOTE: On the first two pages, there are blank panels- inserted INTO these panels would be the center of the Universe slowly collapsing, and then a picture of the planet that this prologue took place at collapsing into itself. Mind the poor art...it woulda made more sense colored

)
there's no dialogue...but yeah...nothing really happens until the last page; Tritan and the others are waiting for Poo-Ting to arrive; Void makes a smart-ass comment on how stupid their "assignment" is, and Poo-Ting appears to bitch him out and explain the purpose of "mission".

Blank panel( was to be filled with the galaxy)
Panel 2: A volcano-like area breaking apart and flying into the center of the planet's galaxy(the planet is located at the center of the universe but ISN'T at the center of the universe...if that makes sense?)

Panel 1: Looks crappy, but it's a sea area at an angle view. Once more, would look better colored.
Panel 2: Forest area breaking apart(see? we're establishing the elements here

). Once more, Crap, but meh.
Blank Panel(was to be filled with a Photoshop-made planet starting to burst)

(splash panel- from left to right): Void, Grimm Reaper, and Tritan

Page 4(the page I stopped on, but not the last):
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v415/Dyemooch/poprologue04.jpg

Panel 1: Tritan informs the others that Poo-Ting will be arriving. Tritan is more like a "fortune teller" with a very dark sense of humor(later on, he'll use such humor to kill an AU PO)
Panel 2: Void criticizes their being on the planet---
Panel 3: ---and here's where PooTing starts to go on about how "important" this whole deal is.

...and then the story goes on and ends with them appearing on Miniopia- and takes off from there.
Dunno if I should still work on this, but for now, we'll say it's in the "maybe" section. And sorry for the horrible art/proportions...x_x

They are excellent sketches...
Will you sell the comic or will you just post it on PO? Cuz I'm going to be incredibly intent on seeing them^.^

Dang Bee, every time I see your work I get more blown away by how you can stretch yourself. You really know how to nurture your talent

Bee! Those are fantastic! I think the elements section really helps set the feel of what we are in for. The character designs are phenomenal. I personally would love to see more.

(to answer Zinka's question: just to post up on PO- but I get so sidetracked that I always end up abandoning my many attempted AU projects x_x)

Thanks for the compliments peoples. Here's hoping that something actually HAPPENS(as far as me finishing SOMETHING goes) with this thing.
...but I figure that, worse come to worse, I slowly-but-surely draw every PO in AU form

. hehe...overkill. x_X

Bee, your work always blows my mind away. Everything looks so beautifully dark in those panels. I get excited thinking about it! Keep it up!

It's good stuff - I'd like to see the project completed, if we get the chance. And if one large comic doesn't work out - think small vignettes, once the story is introduced, where PO's and their Alters both try to figure out what to do about this new planet. Battling one's Negaverse self would definitely be interesting.
