The V Man Prophecies - after the giftshop

Vince: Battle of the Mothmen, dude!
Nikos!: My Mothman can kick your Mothman's ass!!!
Vince: Don't judge a book by its cover, or in this case, size! This little guy packs a punch, watch...

Vince: Mothman attack!!! Coming your way, chopstickhead!
Karen: Hey!

Bobbie: Always acting like jackasses

Nikos!: Dude, we should go back and buy the whole costume! We can test it out around campus and start our own Mothman legends!
Vince: Way to make your freak flag fly, dude! Great idea!


Karen: Oh, darn it, they messed up my hair completely.

V man Prophecies - at the statue

Marji (doing a Charlie's Angels pose in front of the Mothman statue) : Quick, boys and gals, take a picture if you want, Farah Fawcett ain't got shit on me!

Vince (in his Beavis or BeaVince mode again): Check out its butt, heh heh...
Matt: Why would you be looking, dude?


Nikos! (takes aim for the Mothman with a upper cut): Now it's my turn!

V Man Prophecies -At Marji and Matt's



Matt: What the? They're not stoned again, are they?
Marji: I think we'd better drive, just in case..
Matt: Just in case of what? I'm fairly convinced they're trippin' out, so you're right, we'll drive.


(Matt and Marji walk up, Nikos! and Vince have raibow colored swirls in their eyes, as they are coming off their buzz)

Matt: Vince, dude?.....

Marji: Nikos?



Vince (in his Beavis mode, or Cornholio.. whichever): WHOA! WHAT ARE YOU DOING ASSWHIPE? YOU'RE KILLING MY BUZZ, DAMN IT, heh heh..
Matt: Relax, dude! It's time to wake up
Nikos! (in his Butthead voice): Yeah, settle down BeaVince!


V Man Prophecies - "any color you like"






"Any Color You Like" continued ... there are missing scenes in this, when they drive around town to get to downtown, and afterwards as they make it up to Marji and Matt's place

(to be added later) (note: there are to be rainbow colors all over these scenes, including when they are biting into the bagels.. in that scene both Vince and Nikos! turn all kinds of colors, hence nikos! is shown without brown eyes or black hair)

The V-Man Prophecies - Any Color You Like








But they decide to get buzzed anyway... these next sequences are to be set to the tune "Any Color You Like" by Pink Floyd (off the Dark Side of The Moon album) {I'm hoping to be able to put this together as a slide show eventually to the actual song}




[time to pour some refreshments for the trip]




Nikos!: Whoa!


Vince: Yeah dude, Love that feeling when the skull smiles back at us!

Black and White version

For now I'm putting the cartoons on in black and white. After all I do have a day job, and only after I can get enough recognition can I quit my day job, once I can start generating an income with these comics and some of my other plans, if I had that kind of time on my hands, then I would start putting fully colored versions on the blog also, but until then, they have to be in black and white, after all, even drawing them is time consuming by itself.

Marji and Matt have already made the most of their day, having gone shopping and taken care of other things, while our duo were fast asleep (a running gag of this series is that Vince and Nikos are hardly ever awake before noon on a weekend, whether over the summer session or the regular school year)


V: Yo, babe, do we have a roadtrip in store for you!

Marji: Oh great, what is it?

V: There's this legend you see, about this mothman dude....

Marji: You guys want to see that goofy statue down in West Virginia, don't you?

V: whoa, its like you're reading our minds, man!

Marji (to Matt): It's Vince, he's wondering if we feel like taking a road trip this afternoon.

Matt: Yeah, why not, I was only going to watch the game, but who would want to do that? (sarcastic)

V: Plus, I heard there is riverboat gambling down there too, dudes!

Marji: Don't worry, you've already sold us, it's not like Matt was going to watch the game this afternoon or anyhting. Meet us at our place in 20 minutes, and try not to get high this time!

V: all right! groovy! We're there dude! (hangs up and turns to Nikos, who is still trying to call the others): Well dude, looks like we sold the trip to our first customer.. put it here Buddeee! (A'la Pauly Shore) (as Nikos "hits the rock" (no not crack you dolts!)

Notice

Public service announcement!: I'm still new at this, some of the strips are slightly out of order, which I have no control over, that is why I wrote the dialogue in order along with each post, which should clue the reader in on what sequence each comic block goes in.

The V-Man Prophecies





In this episode, Vince and Nikos are bored out of their minds one summer weekend afternoon, and feel like taking a road trip. They have a bulletin board titled "who's around this weekend" which tells them exactly which friends are around, well you guessed it, that particular weekend. How two lazy slackers find out these things in advance, especially as they have so many friends to keep track of, is beyond me, so don't ask me, they just do! Anyway, they call the 4 friends that are around this particular weekend, which happens to be around the 4th of July (so you can imagine that campus is dead for the most part, even during the summer session), to take this road trip with them, after watching a TV program about the infamous "Mothman" of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, which just happens to be a hour's drive from their university campus....
Vince: Whoa, dude, I'm bored! We need a day road trip!
(on TV: a documentary about the Mothman Prophecies and the real story behind it; the narration goes on to talk about Point Pleasant, West Virginia, where this legend took place, and also mentions the fact that there is a statue dedicated to this mythological creature in the town.)
Vince (turning up the volume): Whoa!!! Dude! That's totally doable! We need to get a group together, like right now!
Nikos: Yeah! We need to call around to see who wants to come!
Vince: Well, I know Mandy and Bernie are out of town this weekend...
Nikos: Let's check out who's available this weekend.
(they both get up and go to the dining room)
Vince: Cool, we can start with Marji and Matt.
Nikos: Dude, the only other two are Bobbie and Brabs.
Vince: Well, at least it won't be a sausage fest this time! You call them and I will drop a line to M & M.

THE GANGS OF ROLLING HILLS U- 2



Vince and Nikos made it down to south campus after several "green lights". here they see Else, who is a Dutch college student (actually a ringer for the Rolling Hills University field hockey team, the Dutch are good at this sport), and their friend (who isn't around here?) whom they decide needs to cool down after jogging in 90 degree heat.
Vince: Look, dude! there's what appears to be Else!
Nikos: Cool, even if its not her, it will be worth it!!
(they carry out the "green light")
Nikos: Dude! She just flipped us the bird!
Vince: That's allright! It was worth it, plus we'll probably get her again, on the other side of town...

THE GANGS OF ROLLING HILLS U - 1




Vince and Nikos are bored in their apartment one afternoon, on a weekend, and of course it is in the afternoon on a weekend, because these two rarely get up before noon on weekends.. too much partying down at the campus bars the night before? On this particular afternoon they were watching certain shows, on probably the history channel, on gangs.. Vince comes up with a (not so bright) idea, to 'roll' around campus dressed as gang members, strapped with water guns and do drive by splashings to anyone they want, but mostly people they know. They also carry out "green lights" to certain friends at certain locations around campus... poor Keith is one of them, and all the kid wanted to do was study!

Nikos (to Tony): Greek Mafia official business! We're carrying out a green light, esse'!
Tony: All right Nikos! Smoke 'em Mo'Fos!!!

Emmy in the moonlight


in this particular episode, Vince and Nikos meet up with some of their friends and go on a midnight hike around and south of campus, here Emmy runs ahead of the gang, to be followed by Vince soon after.. she is enchanted by the full moonlight sparkling on the water as she stands at the far end of a tunnel. Not sure where I'm going with this whole story yet..

Cartoons will be coming soon

The cartoons will be added shortly. They will be whole "episodes", but will be put on in pieces and parts, as I can come up with the ideas and draw them so quickly. The cartoon pieces can also function independently, almost in a sunday comics 'style', however, eventually I will put each episode together in their entirety. I may include other drawings independent of the vince and nikos series also, as part of a "miscellaneous" section to this blog.
