Going
on a year of Tágide gatherings – a project that coordinates
informal gatherings and drawing sessions for local artists, along
with publication of a comics anthology, Outras Bandas – the group
also has collaborated on a cadavre exquis challenge, generically
titled Ossadas do Ofício/Bones of the Trade.
Lately,
the impetus has diminished as we've begun to also play around with
self-conclusive 'cadavre pages and such, but the goal to jumpstart
the criativity and do sequential art together is still alive; here
are some further chapters of Ossadas...

Prestes
a fazer um ano de encontros Tágide – um projecto que coordena
encontros informais e sessões de desenho para artistas locais,
junto com a edição da antologia Outras Bandas – o colectivo
também tem colaborado a criar BDs em sistema cadavre exquis,
genericamente intituladas Ossadas do Ofício. Mais
recentemente, o ímpeto diminuiu à medida que começámos a brincar
com pranchas auto-conclusivas e demais parcerias, mas o objectivo de
despoletar a criatividade e de fazer arte sequencial juntos continua
vivo; aqui ficam alguns novos capítulos do Ossadas...

mr.Judge. Thank you, Time Guardian.

1) Ugh! 2) Come on, don't stop pushing! The artefact is unstable.
We have to get it away from the force field before something
happens!... 3) Fheww! The “ball” will dissipate, without a
battery
from the artefact... 4) Ahhh, Now we're indeed confortable. I hope
she doesn´t delay. I need to go to the ladies room. 5) Seriously? 6)
Get out... 7) --Off the way!
