1993's DIRTY PAIR: I HONESTLY HATE YOU, pt.1 of 2
🕑 Added 2020-09-10 13:01:02 +0000 UTCFollowing up on Tuesday's post, here are the rest of the scans of recently unearthed photocopies of the 1993 story The Dirty Pair: I Honestly Hate You, which was originally done for a Dark Horse San Diego Comic-Con promotional comic, then reprinted as a bonus feature in the DH TPB collection of the first DP miniseries Biohazards.
I consider this story a bit of an obscurity, given that I have no remaining copies of either the SDCC "floppy" or the Biohazards TPB, nor do I have any idea where the hell the original artwork for the pages wound up. Some of you long-time DP collectors might have seen this story before, but I guarantee you've never seen the full-bleed artwork for the pages like this; for the uninitiated, I Honestly Hate You was published with artwork extending to the edges of the printed pages, as indicated by the crop marks on each cornerβaka the so-called "full bleed," which I used constantly during this period.
I'm presenting the pages as both grayscale and bitmap scans of the reduced-scale photocopies; neither approach is especially accurate at reproducing the delicate Japanese screentones I was using to shade these pages, alas.
TOMORROW ON THIS HERE PATREON: Prrrrrobably some Vintage Con Sketches, though I'm not 100% sure about that.

Hahahaha for the use of sims to vent unhappiness towards your partner. I full believe both of them engage in sims to vent this kind of AAAAARGH towards each other, too.

Looks to be missing page 7 for the Bitmap version.
