Friday Trivia: Usually I give characters names that are riddles of their role in the story, but not so with the three protagonists in this story.  

Selena Cyclops was named after Selina Kyle, Catwoman. Anyone who knows me well knows I love Batman and the entire Batman world.

Thea was named after Thea Queen, Green Arrow's sister in 'Arrow', because I love the Green Arrow world and TV show too. 

And Friday was named after the day the webcomic comes out each week, so that you'll remember what day to get excited about :-P ...

Actually, there is a little more depth to it than that. Freya, the Nordic Goddess the girls refer to when they say "Oh my Freya", is thought to be (along with Frigg) the name that Friday is derived from. She is one kick ass Goddess, and embodies all of the awesomeness that our three girls do.

Holy Fake Photos, Batman! Used my Bat Photoshop to Create Images out of the Adam West and Burt Ward 1960s Batman Series...

In celebration of the end of Batman's 75th Anniversary Year, and the release of the classic series on DVD, I have created some cheeky photoshopped images of Adam West, Burt Ward, and their supporting cast.  Oh, and I threw in Wonder Woman and Clark Kent for good measure.  Enjoy!


The Riddler confounds chess champion Bobby Fischer
while proclaiming to the crowd it is checkmate.
Eartha Kitt amuses Catwoman.
Charlie Chaplin, The Joker and Buster Keaton.
Mr. Freeze gives a chilling forecast for Great Britain.

Daily Planet reporter Clark Kent interviews the Wright Brothers after first successful flight.
Old friends Alphonse "Scarface" Capone and
Oswald "Penguin" Cobblepot talk business.
Wonder Woman standing up for women's right to vote with the suffragettes in Britain.
Batgirl tries her wing at being a matador.
Batman and Robin race and eventually
lose to sprinter Ben Johnson.
Bonnie and Clyde and Catwoman.

And finally, a little bonus because I thought world's greatest painting needed world's greatest heroes...

Michelangelo's 'Creation of Adam' with Batman and Superman...

Freaky Freaky 2015

Happy New Year!


One more week until Freaky Freaky Fridays are back!
Hello again.  How are you?  It feels like we haven't spoken since last year.

Oh my Freya (as Thea and Friday would say), I just used that joke.  I am ashamed. It is a dad joke, and I do not yet have spawn with my surname.  What is going on??  I will now do twenty-three pushups as penance.

Never fear though, Freaky Freaky Fridays will never stoop so low as to use such stereotypical jokes.  Which is a shame because an Englishman, an Irishman and a Priest who all frequent bars wanted a role in your favourite webcomic, but were turned away at their FFF audition.

Alas, they may find work in other stories and works of humour, but not this one.  Unless the Englishman was a steampunk inventor/pilot with a mechanical piglet, the Irishman had a green face and was from the ancient race of Tuatha de Danann, and the Priest had a loose jaw that dragged 1km behind him like a limp serpent.

The barman could then say to the Priest, "why the long face?" and he could explain that his injury was the result of perpetually walking into steel bars for the laughter of small children.  The barman would then raise an eyebrow, and the priest would say "A priest walked into a bar... ouch!"  The barman would shake his head, and a small child hearing the joke for the first time would chuckle with laughter until milk came out of his nostrils to his mother's chagrin. 

You see, milk is a very sad liquid, and must escape from any hole if its consumer is overcome with extreme laughter.  Once Barry 'Boomer' Douglas Jnr. read an episode of Freaky Freaky Friday he found exceptionally humorous... however, he also blocked every hole in his body and drank milk to test what the milk would do.  He came to about the second page and his head began to shake before exploding. Barry 'Boomer' Douglas Jnr.'s head was no more, and in its place was a whitish high-in-calcium volcano spouting from his neck.

Alas, these fine British gentlemen and man of the cloth were perfectly ordinary, and this webcomic is about, for and by perfectly strange people.  Or unique people, if you like.  Like you and me.  So we had to send the normal people away with a snap lock bag of rations to consume and a map to where all the rivers meet at the mainstream.

But if you'd like a little more quirky strangeness in your life, and a little less of what she's having, then join me next week for the start of a new Freaky Freaky Friday adventure.  It is good and odd.

Oh, and have a very Freaky Freaky 2015.  I hope it is your best year yet, and it is filled with love, joy, laughter, fun, success and pixie dust.

See you in seven days for the first webcomic episode, and you shall see that it was good.

Your fellow Friday Freakster,

Daniel Grant Newton

Hang in there... Preview of the next story arc in the Freaky Freaky Fridays webcomic

Merry Christmas Friday Freakster!

Hope you've had a wonderful 2014, and are ready for an even better 2015... I know I am.

I've got a number of very exciting story arcs coming your way in 2015 (including the one previewed below), as well as more art, the release of the comic series 'Spies, Lies and Mysteries', and maybe even a new novel.  I'm 75% finished writing a very exciting new one, and will soon be locking myself away for the many months of editing to get it to you.

If you missed the epic Christmas Special of Freaky Freaky Fridays, check it out by clicking here.  It has been described as "Noel Fielding meets Doctor Who", which is one big idol meets another in my mind.

Anyway, below is a preview of the next story arc in the Freaky Freaky Fridays webcomic.

Yours in weird,

Daniel


Freaky Freaky Fridays is the webcomic for those who are brave enough to be themselves.
