Telephone Comics : Round 14 soonish
« on: March 26, 2012, 11:15:08 pm »

The idea is simple. One person draws a comic. Someone else writes dialogue for the comic. Another person, without access to the original comic, draws a comic to match the dialogue. The cycle repeats. This game is essentially a reboot of the Telephone Comics thread of ages past, which was essentially a variation on the EPYC forum games of ages even more past. Because they were goddamn hilarious, I'm reviving the idea.


Look at the older telephone comics thread for an idea of how it all works if there's any confusion. Both good and bad art are encouraged, it works best with a healthy mix of both. The comics don't need to be funny on their own, the funny tends to arise organically. The only real additional rule is do not post any spoilers about the current round in the thread, as the whole point is that each participant is going in mostly blind. Ideally, people doing words should make their submissions dialogue only, optionally naming characters, including sound effects, and very minor stage direction. If you want to sign up, specify Art Preferred, Dialogue Preferred, or No Preference so I can do my best to accommodate, and

Please only sign up if you are going to be available to participate.
