The Classics
A huge update to the database. Nothing really new, but then again it's a huge update if you think about it. Anyone who knows about the sleepy fantasy would have seen most of the scans I added. There is the famous chloro on the cover of Batman Gotham Knights and also the chloros from the CrossGen comic Ruse. Basically all the old scenes we all know about have been added to give the database a little foundation. My sources include The Land of Nod and The Project X site. In a way you can say I am competing with those sleepy sites. Most sleepy sites are not updated anymore, probably because they ran out of content to post. One day I will run out of content, but I don't think for a very long time.
I got the best scans I could possibly get. You will notice a huge difference in image quality. You can actually read the sleepy dialog and context. I am a completist, so I included the wake up scene (if there was one). I included any scene where the damsel is unconscious. So this isn't just about the knockout; it's about seeing the girl sleeping.
I think it's important to look at each comic very carefully. For example, this chloroform scene from Mystique #008 is fairly well known:
Now that's a good scene! We see the rag being soaked with ether. Then the rag is placed firmly over the girl's mouth and nose, with Mystique calmly saying "breathe". Brilliant. This scene would have made my day, but if you read on Mystique herself gets rendered unconscious! Only this time, it's the result of a viral infection. Well, take a look for yourself:
Not bad! It was from the same issue too. Just goes to show you, there is a TON of good material out there.
So once again, the sleepy comic database has been updated with lots of the classics (most with better quality scans) so check it out.
My goal is to have a very large database of sleepy scenes in comics.
I posted a link to this site on the Chloroforum. Don't know how it will be recieved, but hopefully it will be positive. I mean I am practically doing all the hard work here! This is something I want to do though.
