Shen Comix

Panel 01: A ball drawn on a whiteboard. The ball has two eyes on its "sides", the sides not facing you. A wooden teaching pointer is pointed at it, and someone is speaking from off-panel, saying "prey animals have eyes on the SIDES of their head, like this." Panel 02: The teaching point now points to another part of the whiteboard, where a ball has two eyes on its front. The off-panel speaker says "predator animals have eyes on the FRONT, like THIS." Panel 03: We zoom out and reveal the speaker to be Shen, who is holding the teaching pointer and asking the class ahead of him, "any questions?" Panel 04: It's 3 characters at tables in a classroom: A sheep with side eyes on one side, a tiger with front eyes on the other, and a shark raising his fin in the middle.

I feel that original drawing so hard 😭

Panel 1: Front view of All Might from My Hero Academia, with his usual determined smile, winding up a big punch. The punch he's winding up is so strong that the yellow, red, and white background is swirling around it. He's yelling "DETROIT SMASH!!" Panel 2: Yoru from Chainsaw Man is raising one arm, as if holding a handle, and saying "New Jersey Hammer!" Panel 3: Closeup of All Might's face, still in that winding up pose from panel one, but now he's sweating a lot. He's thinking "what the fuck does that mean".

Panel 1: A fairly buff white guy with messy blonde hair and prominent eyelashes gestures forward with his hand and says "We men are perverts. That's why we objectify women." This is the Sanrio Guy from some of my previous comics. Panel 2: He puts his hand down and closes his eyes, continuing to say "women are too pure to ever objectify men." Panel 3: Closeup of a smaller, brown hand gently clasping a few fingers of his, as if to beckon him somewhere. Panel 4: We are now looking through Sanrio Guy's eyes as brown girl in a white t-shirt with a rectangular night sky treeline image, and black pants, is leading him towards a door labeled "GACHA GAMES" by the sign above. This is the Junji Ito girl from some of my previous comics. Within the door is complete and utter darkness.

i know she says not to worry about that other guy, but... he's got that HVAC autism, and i've got is the minecraft autism.....

Shen is standing in complete darkness, facing you, with a completely neutral expression and mostly neutral stance. With his right hand, he holds up a Shen plush, which has a yellow t-shirt, blue pants, and big bulging eyes. It looks a little raw, to be honest, but at the same time emanates a captivating aura.

Panel 1: Shen is riding on the shoulders of a big yellow guy labeled "INSPIRATION", who is holding Shen's feet so he doesn't fall off. Both are happy, Shen with his eyes closed going "WEEEEEEE!", and there are sparkles around them. Panel 2: Inspiration, by the feet, swings Shen full force into the ground, which he hits with his face and shatters, sending bits of debris into the air. Panel 3: Shen sits up, dazed with swirly eyes and scuff marks all over him, as Inspiration's yellow hand recedes exits panel left, having let go of Shen. Entering paneling right is a new, grey hand. Panel 4: Shen is now riding on the shoulder of a big grey guy labeled "DISCIPLINE" who has a furrowed brow and determined expression. He's still kinda crumpled and dazed, and is once again is going "weeeeeee", though now less enthusiastically.

me: don't say that, it'll hurt my saiyan pride

them: you're not a saiyan

me: (keeling over) OOUUUUUU MY SAIYAN PRIDE!!!!!

i NEVER make the same mistake twice

if i make a mistake

it's definitely gonna be 3 or more times

Panel 1: Shen is looking very closely at a leaf with a ladybug on it. He is happily saying "Oh if only I was a little ladybug." Panel 2: Shen looking up at the sky, his hands clasped in front of him, both the background and his seemingly pearlescent eyes full of sparkles at light. He blushes and says "How whimsical life would be! How free of care!" Panel 3: Closeup on the ladybug from the side, as it thinks "If I don't eat like 50 aphids and have sex right now I'm gonna kill myself."

Panel 1: A nun in traditional nun garb has her hands in praying position in front of Shen. She says "God has a plan for ALL of us, my child. Even YOU." Panel 2: Shen is sort of 'pogging' at her, clearly pleasantly surprised and excited by what she said. Panel 3: Shen looks up at the sky, his eyes full of wonder, surrounded by sparkles. Beams of light shine through the clouds above. Panel 4: God is up there with his fingers rested on his head, his tongue out, and a big sweat drop, as if to say "oopsie".

Whaddup! Here's all three parts of my recent LIFE series, with the finale featuring the wonderful @shenanigansen.bsky.social, the father of LIFE itself!!

Doing research into what it's like to be a total loser using complete immersion and method acting

Field: YOU ALL DID A YURI WITHOUT INVITING ME? Person: I thought you were into men? Field: I still like to be included! ... What's a Yuri? I think it has something to do with ice.

"oooo i'd draw that but i can't draw"

brother get this through your head

NOBODY can draw

we are literally

ALL

BULLSHITTING

Panel 1: It's a wooden doorway in a blue-walled room. The walls have white trim, the doorway has yellow trim, and the floor is a brown. Someone is yelling through the door, "THERE BETTER NOT BE ANY YURI HAPPENING IN THERE!!" In the room various noises are heard like "BAM", "SHIIIINGG", "BAM" (again), and "CRASH" Panel 2: The yeller, now revealed to be Shen, kicks open the door with a sour, frustrated expression. Panel 3: The people in the room are two girls in the midst of violent combat, one wielding double uzis (black dress, blonde hair, messy ponytail, bullet belt over shoulder), and the other a katana (dark green sweatpants, red sneakers, white tank top, straight dark brown hair). They are both looking at Shen, the uzis girl having just stopped firing, with the smoke still coming off her guns, and the katana girl having stopped mid-swing at the uzi girl's head. Panel 4: Shen points at them, infuriated, his face cloaked in shadow, yelling "I SAID NO YURI"

Twink Death is a little different from Regular Death...

Voices by yours truly and comic by @shenanigansen.bsky.social!

Panel 1: Shen is jumping into the panel with his hands up in "claws that are gonna getcha" position, and yelling "HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!" He has made a loose attempt at dressing up as Cosmo from Chainsaw Man, with a 'brain' made of pink string strapped to the right side of his head via the string. A particularly long strand of string that hangs down is tied in a bow at the end. He's wearing glasses with only the right lens inserted, on which is taped another string, suspending an 'eyeball' consisting of a ping pong ball with a black circle painted on it with a heart in the center. Panel 2: Shen holds his belly and laughs heartily, very amused as his own hijink. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" Panel 3: "... HEH ..." -- Shen's laughter slows down as he looks forward, still smiling and with his arms a bit away from his body. Panel 4: Shen adopts a calm and serious expression, standing perfectly neutral and looking forward, as we zoom in on him. Panel 5: We turn the camera around to reveal that Shen is looking at pitch black darkness. "Who am I even talking to?" he asks, "Is there anybody there?" Panel 6: We zoom out from a high angle, that Shen is in a perfectly white void that recedes into shadow. He looks to the side and asks "where even am I?" Panel 7: As Shen is still looking to the side, a gargantuan ball of flesh begins emerging from the darkness. The flesh is covered with holes in the shape of smiling eyes and mouths, most right side up, some upside down. It carries itself on hundreds of arms, each with too many joints. All of the faces are laughing.

doing a chess move and then saying "is this something?" like i just pitched a bit in a writer's room

Panel 1: Shen is talking to Hatsune Miku in her standard grey, teal, and black outfit. They look happily at each other. Shen has his hands in the front pouch of his sweatshirt. Shen: "are you the REAL MIKU??" Miku: "Yeah!" Shen: "Prove it." Panel 2: Miku begins singing Anamanaguchi's "Miku", going "miku miku oo-ee-oo" and spinning her classic leek in her left hand. Shen looks on contently. Panel 3: Shen is talking to Kasane Teto, who is wearing a mustard-yellow t-shirt with a baguette graphic and baguette style lines on the shoulders, and sweatpants. They look happily at each other. Shen: "Are you the REAL TETO??" Teto: "Yeah!" Shen: "Prove it." Panel 4: Teto keels over a bit, shaking and crying hard, screaming "AAAAAAAAAAAAAA". Shen looks on contently.

making a new restaurant type called Some Of What You Can Eat Buffet, where you pay a flat amount for "all you can eat", but for every item you order on a given round, I roll a d20 on the table, and if it ever lands on 1, I just bring you the bill.

Panel 1: The Persian army stands before the Spartans at the famous pass of the Battle of Thermopylae, which is the basis of the movie 300. One of the Persian soldiers steps forward and points at King Leonidas, saying "OUR ARROWS WILL BLOT OUT THE SUN." Panel 2: Leonidas, looking stern and cool with some hard shading, begins to reply "THEN W--" Panel 3: Shen, also in a Spartan cape, puts his hand on Leonidas's shoulder, interrupting him, saying "Bro... Bro put me in front, I have played SO MUCH Touhou." Panel 4: Shen is dodging arrows falling from the sky so fast that he is leaving afterimages. Around him are a few dead Spartans who could not dodge arrows as fast.

"impossible" is just a word to me....

....with a definition....

......and general connotations associated with it.......

reverse hallmark movie where an easygoing country guy moves to the big city and meets a city girl who teaches him the joy of being stressed out all the time and neglecting things in favor of work

Panel 1: Top-down-ish perspective of Shen pushing his shopping cart into a checkout aisle. He is looking up at a sign attached to the aisle, that reads "EXPRESS LANE - 12 ITEMS OR LESS" Panel 2: Shen picks up two bags of carrots in his shopping cart, saying "Aw jeez. The carrots are in two bags, so I think I technically have 13 items." Panel 3: Shen rubs the back of his head, smiling with a twinge of nervousness but also clearly accepting the situation. He says "ah, well, I'm sure they'll understand..." Panel 4: Shen is blindfolded and on his knees in front of the wall in the parking lot behind the store, with his hands tied behind his back. The cashier, still in apron, is pointing a rifle at him.

Panel 1: A girl with poofy dark brown hair, brown skin, and yellow beads holding the hair in a "space buns" hairstyle, is looking back at you while sitting in a computer chair in front of a drawing tablet. She wears a purple sweatshirt with a yellow "stitch" pattern going down the sleeves, and has apparently drawn a golden-armored knight standing on a cliff with billowing clouds and night stars in the background. She is labeled "illustrator" and says "It took me 10 hours to draw this!" Panel 2: Shen points at her with his right hand, a manically smug expression on his face and the other hand on his hip. He is labeled "comic artist" and says "HAH!! Just ONE drawing in 10 hours??" Panel 3: Shen continues speaking, pointing at himself with his thumb. He says "I'D have to get like TWENTY drawing done in that time." Panel 4: Behind the still-smug shen is a slouched, deformed, horrible beast of a man with a drawing tablet in one hand and the other hand holding the pen, and also strapped to a plank of wood for wrist stabilization. It wears only a ragged loin cloth. The neck is long and extends far forward, and the hair is wild, going in all directions. In the darkness of the face two small eyes glint. This creature is labeled "animator"

Panel 1: Shen is looking down at his hand from a somewhat bottom-up perspective, saying "y'know, I think it's time I learned to draw hands." Panel 2: We focus on Shen's hand from his perspective. It is very simplistic, looking sort of like a water-inflated white rubber glove with 3 fingers and a thumb. Panel 3: The text says "*horrible cracking noise*" as the hand transforms into a realistic 4-fingered hand (albeit still paper white, as that is Shen's skin color). The panel is decorated with a spiral of chaotic, shaky black and yellow lines. Panel 4: Shen is looking down at his hands, which are now both realistic, large 4-fingered hands. He says "Oh HELL yes. Now time to get that YAOI MONEY."

An idea for this guy

Panel 1: Text says "My dad was an orc". It's a green orc wearing a dress shirt with a purple tie and glasses, holding a cup of coffee. The cup is made of stone and has an ragged axe blade on it. He also has a pencil in his pocket protector, and the pencil is also a tiny axe. Panel 2: Text says "My mom was a witch". It's a woman with green skin and one yellow eye, glowing and emanating magic, gleaming from beneath her big purple witch had, which has small wood constructions hanging off of it and two pins on it: one of a mushroom and one of the Newgrounds angry face. He's wearing jeans and a Costco tank top, with a reddish purple vest over it, and is holding a broom and a tote bag with a bag of chips visible within it. Panel 3: Text says "You'd think I'd be some kind of magical berserker". We are looking overhead at a muscular green man looking up at us, with his arms splayed out in a powerful stance, and his left arm holding an axe. He has a dark purple had and shoulder-cape, and smiles with malice. Text continues, saying "but actually I ended up with my MOM'S strength and my DAD'S magic attunement." Panel 4: A normal looking with green skin, messy purple hair, big round glasses, and a pointy nose, wearing a t-shirt with the night sky in a square in the center, says "so, basically, I'm green."

Panel 1: Shen is stoically holding up a sign with his right hand that says "W O R C E S T E R" on it. Panel 2: A man clearly from Boston, in a black Red Sox cap and Bruins jersey and holding a Market Basket bag slung over his shoulder, says "WOOSTER!" Under the cap, he has messy brown hair, and is smiling innocently. Panel 3: Shen, still stoic, now holds up a picture of a rooster with both hands. Panel 4: The man from Boston smile lights up, sparkles in his eyes, and says "ROOCHESTER!!!"
