Holy Smokes, gang! Can it really be? Rv. Xen is hosting a contest?! with ACTUAL PRIZES?! it is a beautiful thing indeed... so let's get down to business.

The DEAL:

You've now been injected with Hot Bat-Maloy Action with the thrilling 5-part saga, "What's Left of BoB KANE", the magnum opus of the Bat-Maloy mythos... i have a few other related deviations in my gallery, so go search and read and fill your heads because... here it comes... YOU GET TO TAKE OVER MY CHARACTER! That's right, i'm relinquishing my copyrights, giving up control, letting loose the BoBs of S'mores! ...er..right.

I have had this character sitting in my head, only escaping once and awhile into the material plane, he's growing stagnant, stuck in the convoluted world i've created for him. So what am i asking of you fine artists? well unlike a lot of copyright holding companies who have been revamping their tired characters over and over again, but really just rehashing and giving us the same product for almost 70 years now,....i want my character to grow, to change, to become split apart and remade IN YOUR VISAGE! intriguing, no?

The RULES: Rules? we don't need no stinking rules! okay...maybe some guidelines... What i'm looking for is for someone to take my character, toy with the idea, and create their version of my character. does he get a name change? a new costume? stop fighting crime and start selling insurance?! new sidekicks, new villains, new worlds, new sex, new toaster?!? It's up to you, Bat-Maloy is now your vehicle, you decide how to drive him. And anything is allowed: if you want to talk with me about some of my ideas (which there are many) that's cool. if you want to work with others and collab, that's cool too. if you want to make costumes, draw pictures, film movies, write novels, poetry, ANYTHING! the winners will be decided upon how much time and energy they have placed into Bat-Maloy and his world. so the more love you give him the more love i give you...

which brings us to The PRIZES:

Grand Prize: a YEAR LONG SUBSCRIPTION, a COMMISSIONED INK 11x14 DRAWING BY ME, and mad props in my journal...and my love?

2nd Prize: a 6 month SUBSCRIPTION, a COMMISSIONED INK 9X12 DRWING BY ME, and mad props in my journal... and my kissy face?

3rd Prize: a 3 month SUBSCRIPTION, a COMMISSIONED PENCIL 9X12 DRAWING BY ME, and mad props in my journal... and an electronic high-five?

4th Prize: a COMMISSIONED PENCIL 5x6 PENCIL DRAWING BY ME and mad props in my journal...and i'll tell people you're cool?

5th Prize: because we must follow the law of fives, a DRAWING BY ME of some sort... mad props in my journal... and grocery coupons?

everyone else will have a link in my journal during the course of the what-not... the DEADLINE will be...what's the date today...uh... November 23, two days before my birthday and the start of the Sagitarius period!

I think this'll be cool and people like prizes and let's hope i can deliver, eh? haha! SO, HAPPY MALOY-MAKING CHUMS!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand GO!
