Hello! I am Clarissa author Jason Yungbluth (Proof: https://www.whatisdeepfried.com/proof/), and how I wish I would get more commissions like this one instead of requests for filth!BTW: at the insistence of a bullying fan I have just launched a Discord (because I always want to be 15 years behind any trend). Now I need friends!! Feel free to join so you can ask me inappropriate questions and such: https://discord.com/invite/nrNzSKRz
>>151964513give you $20 if you draw me Anya Taylor Joy feet tickle torture
Make more comics, Fag.
>>151964542You only get three toes for $20.00.(Jesus these new captchas are annoying!)
>>151964513Isn't this the comic about raping little girls?
>>151964617Er, umm.... it is ultimately about NOT doing these things.
>>151964594Anya only has three good toes anywayand the captchas are better when you get used to the ones where every other one is just counting the empty boxes
>>151964617Is about a little girl that gets molested but you are not suppose to side with the predator.
>>151964513>I wish I would get more commissions like this one instead of requests for filth!I don't believe you.
>>151964513Give us the sales pitch as to why you want us to join. What do we get in exchange?
>>151964659I feel like Sesame Street came up with these challenges.
>>151964736Good question! I confessed to being a Discord dimbulb. What do people expect? Emotes? Are emotes still a thing? Maybe I could solve these captchas for you.
>>151964697Well, not CLARISSA filth.
Watching the comics right now from the site, and honestly, it feels like is just misery porn.
>>151964617In the same way that Schindler's List is about killing Jews.
>>151964792"Just"? Sir, I created the genre!
>>151964513>I have just launched a DiscordYou may live to regret it, Jason. Discord channels are absolute drama magnets, but best of luck. I like your comics and art a lot (please keep making stuff) but I'm afraid I'm too miserably poor to commission anyone.
>>151964832Oh gawd... we'll see how long I last ! I have been permabanned from Reddit, SA, the Star Trek BBS... can I be banned from my own Discord?
>>151964804Do you write this character to convey a message, personal experience or just sadism?>>151964861Nope, unless you do something retarded like giving ownership to other person
>>151964832Get yo ass in the server boy, we finna Deep Fry the condom I'm gonna equip before I fuck you like a pig.
>>151964513I have a question.So what's the creative process behind coming up with a story? Do you just take the average nuclear family and completely invert its tropes? Watch a lot of true crime docs? Do you have some real life person from your past that you parody?What's greasing the gears in ur brain case?
>>151964795...is that movie not about killing jews?
>>151964861>I have been permabanned from Reddit, SA, the Star Trek BBSOh no, what did you?
>>151964861How the fuck do you get banned from a star trek bbs? Did you post ascii art porn?
>>151964904It does not paint the killing of Jews as a good thing.In fact, it does the exact opposite.That's the point.
Just checked out your site. I have seen the Clarissa strips floating around here for a few years now. I had no idea that you were also the one behind Weapon Brown. I placed that on my wishlist on Amazon over 10 years ago and then forgot about it. I found a copy at a local used bookstore last week, but maybe I should purchase a copy from your site, now that it has been inserted back into my memory and you are here on /co/ right now. Cool site, and commission prices are pretty reasonable. Thanks for reminding me about Weapon Brown.Would you say that the book currently on your site is the definitive edition? Or are there plans for a "little red" edition of WB + Aftershock in a cool Hardcover through Kickstarter or anything I should be on the lookout for?
>>151964861Just try not to let any real life Clarissa's Dads operate in there.
>>151964513Is there somewhere a clear table listing all your works? Did you only do online or also print?who is your favourite other comic artists? thanks kind regards, i enjoyed(some more some less) many nights reading the comics on your website
>>151964917Well you know what, I guess it's just one of those "art is subjective" situations
>>151964878Father Flannnery? How did you find me??
>>151964890My original inspiration for Clarissa was a made for TV movie that suggested counseling for a family that had an incestuous father. I thought "That is going to make for an awkward Thanksgiving!"
>>151964513How much for you to do one of my superhero characters, non-lewd or weird?
>>151964915Let's just say that me and the Kurtzman fans have our issues.
>>151964513Also, use a name/trip, will be easier to track
>>151964924I am sold out of the original GN, and I did not succeed in a Kicsktarter for a new printing in 2025. Maybe this year! Aftershock has new stories however. I'd love to do an omnibus edition of all the material, but the cost is enormous. I need a publisher!
>>151965007Ahh, carry on then.Fuck Kurtzman Trek.
>>151964936If by list you mean all my self-published comics, you can just consult my store (Oh wait, my original four issues of Deep Fried are not listed. But they are contained in "The Great Taste of Deep Fried". https://www.whatisdeepfried.com/store/product-category/comicbooks/
>>151965003https://www.whatisdeepfried.com/con-artist/
>>151964513Do you have any favorite artists or works?
>>151965118So many! John Byrne, Bill Sienkewicz, Evan Dorkin, Barry Windsor Smith, Frank Quitely and Frank Miller to name a few.
>>151965144which member of The Eltingville Club do you hate the most and why is it Pete
>>151965144>Frank MillerFavorite work of his?
>>151964513>how I wish I would get more commissions like this one instead of requests for filth!>Posts on 4chanthere is like 5 loli threads on /b/ this very second
>>151964513Totally unrealistic. In reality she'd love being daddy's little fuckpet
>>151964513I love you so much, Clarissa is so cute.When is the cartoon coming out?
>>151965155Sorry! It's a toss Bill for me. It should be Josh, but I feel for him.
>>151965090Might sound like a dumb question but how do you go about ordering an art commission? And I guess this is also a general question for multiple different artists and not just specifically (You).Is it just like shooting an email saying "hey I want a com" and then listing or what you want drawn? How detailed should you be? Is there such thing as being too autisticly detailed?I've never ordered a commission but have been interested in getting some done. The fear of "doing it wrong" and embarrassing myself or angering an artist I especially like has prevented me going through with it.
>>151965157Dark Knight and Sin City (at least until Family Values).
>>151965039doggone it I didnt even know there was a kickstarter. Good luck yo! Maybe reach out to the Comic Tropes guy. He does weekly live streams and is usually happy to plug indie books in the chat or feature them in the video. Maybe reach out for an interview?
>>151964513God damn, if I hadn't recently spent a bunch of cash on a rifle from James Earl Jones' collection I would have immediately tried to commission you for something. Definitely gonna keep this in mind and reach out to you at some point.
>>151965230Just shoot me that e-mail! And yes, the more details the better. Size, number of characters, color or not... helps us give you a quote.
>>151965266Thanks! I'll check him out!
I appreciate everyone replying to this thread. You can ask me all of these questions in the Discord, of course... and then I won't have to count all thee fucking boxes!
My first exposure to your work was in MAD; how did you end up as one of the Usual Gang of Idiots
>>151965090Would you be open to doing a cover for a novel I'm contracted for? I'd like something akin to the old painted covers from the 40s.
>>151965441Luck! I submitted a batch of cartoons that was perfect for a new feature they were starting.
>>151965450Sure! Go to Whatisdeepfried.com and drop me an e-mail.
>>151965473Great, I have a general mock-up I can send you, but I'm not professional-level enough to do it on my own and would prefer not to use AI.
>>151964513First I just want to say huge fan of these comics, excellent stuff.When creating stories with emotionally sensitive themes such as this, is it difficult to find the right balance between the black comedy and the depressing subject matter? What would your advice be? I always thought you managed to balance the two very well
What are Beepo and Squints up to lately?
>>151964513The fuck are you doing hee?>instead of requests for filth!Where do you think we are?
>>151964617Is it?
>>151966265>The fuck are you doing hee?This isn't even the first time he's posted here.
I'm curious, have you ever seen those fan comics that depict a grown-up Clarissa with her own son? There were like three pages I think, and only one was fit to be posted on a blue board, but I remember it was called something like "Vicious Cycle End" or something.
>>151964513>commissions like this one instead of requests for filthsurely a family photo of Clarissa is still a sort of filth of its own...
>>151964513I like your work.
>>151964924Pics of the copy you found at the bookstore?
>>151965090I know you’re pitching it as affordable, but man, are you undervaluing yourself in some of your digital slots. A full color chibi for $35 seems absurdly low. I’m very much eyeing the physical comms though.But>I accept half down in advance by PayPal or personal checkPersonal checks in this day and age?
So is there an idea in mind for the endgame of Clarissa, or is it just a constant that you revisit whenever you have a story? We seem to have a pretty good idea of how the family dynamic works and how each of them feels about it, including the otherwise sadistic older son after the Halloween story. I guess there's not much to the mother, or that we've seen yet anyway.
I found out you made a lewd image of Janine-Jean Jade and Sandy Bakerman from Patty CakeYou're alright
>>151964513Jason I'm gonna be honestI like you but the comic strip with Kai Trump was too cynical even for me (and has aged poorly since she genuinely likes her grandpa)I don't like the current President as much as the next guy and I strongly believe he's guilty of a lot of shit but I doubt he'd go as far as to do horrible things to his own granddaughter like that
