Mind Control Comics Forum

From a new wonderful artist, PernaLonga, we had: Ring Cycle. Jeremy is a total geek, but he has something that makes him a big hit with the local girls anyway...

Love it.  I'm a sucker for insta-control stuff like this.

Well, you know, in eight pages, you don't have time to dawdle... :)

And for those who want to know the history of the ring but don't want to spned 15 hours doing it and/or don't speak German...

That's great!

Or, take your pick:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Ring

But that story line has 20 rings in it (which seems a bit OTT) and I didn't notice our hero turning invisible... On the other hand, Tolkien did write in English.....

Well, that would make it one of two comics here based on Der Ring des Nibelungen.

Great artwork--PernaLonga's style puts me very much in mind of the Fraim Brothers.  The rendering of the mother reminds me of Rachel Steele, which is where the incest angle comes in, I suppose.

Not too keen on the glowy eyes, but I suppose there are those who like them, so it's not that big of a deal.

I would love to see this story continued.  Perhaps Jeremy could have his mother invite all her MILFy friends over for coffee or cocktails, then turns the gathering into an orgy.  Or he could have his mother and sister become webcam models to bring in extra money.  Heck, he could even be altruistic, helping his brother geeks get laid by some of the hottest girls on campus.

Good Job on finding PernaLonga.  Hope to see more of his work soon--maybe he could do some Rapid Inductions for you.

OMG that's awesome.

Wow. That was... um... intense.

Now, of course, Jeremy must die.

Hope this one becomes a regular comic would be interesting to see where he takes the ring and what he does with it's power I can see a mother/ daughter/ son threeway.

sad well only 8 page, why not 12 pages
Love what we have see. ;D

That kid better hope not to run into somebody with a blue ring...

Did you mean "green"???... Then I would get the reference.  :)

Gorgeous art! This was a very satisfying work. I love the classic, simple, MC plot of a geek just wanting to have fun without conspiracies or excess complications looming in the background.

Anyway, I really really enjoyed PernaLonga's style and I would love to see him work in some other projects with you. And, by all means, if you have more ideas to continue this particular story, I'm 100% behind you.

Thank you very much for the bonus!

best one so far. I really enjoyed it. wish to see more of the same!

Like the implied incest at the end

The art is really beautiful and the story works well.  I like the different levels of transformation.  From studious nerd to confident anonymous guy with no vision problem to RIPPED dude and back to confident anonymous guy.  Interesting.

Implied?  It was quite obvious to me.

To some Mjölnir is subtle.

.

So, would people like this to become a regular title?

Yes.

Absolutely.

.

Seconded.  And Thirded, Fourthed, Fifthed. . .you get the idea.  ;D

I'd definitely like to see more from the artist, regardless of story.

Yes for me

That's where I'm at.

Erhhhmmmm Hell Yes!

Cry havoc and let the clichés fly!

I'd definitely like to see this as a regular title. With the member bonuses, I'd sort of been wondering if something like this might happen. 

Similar to how the "Catherine's Story" bonus didn't take anything away from the Beyond Rubies title, but offered a nice side story, something like "Ring Cycle" could easily be a proof of concept for a longer story.  I'm very much in favour of this. :)

Love the art as well.

I guess "that depends".  "Instant magical MC" isn't much of a turn-on for me, as it happens too fast to leave time for a build up and release (heh). I prefer stories with at least some conflict... even if the outcome isn't really in doubt. So... I'm not enthused about more of the same, but I would be interested if there were a back-story and more development that leaves room for some conflict.

Is there anywhere else to see PernaLonga's art?

Just wondering, there was talk that Ring Cycle would become a regular comic or we would see it again. Is this still true?
Loved Ring Cycle it's one of my favorites of the bonus comics! Would love to see more of both the comic and artist! :D

We'd love it as well! We don't have firm plans yet, but we're working on it.

So, what should we call this now? We can't call it "The Ring Cycle," because that's the name of the regular comic. "The Ring Cycle Bonus" looks weird in our display format. Thoughts?

PoweRing  :D

Can't it just be "Ring Cycle" (as opposed to "The Ring Cycle")? Or "The Ring Cycle #0."

We have a winner!

Wow. 90's flashbacks.

Hey, can we get Rob Liefeld to draw a comic or two? The boobs would be out of this world. And frankly who cares about feet, right?

Is this going to be available?

I am really interested. I didn't know there was a "#0"

Foot fetishists?

Weirdly, this kind of style works pretty well for porn... :)

And then comes issue 00. And issue (.)(.)
