I can, from this thread alone, despite not having seen any serious art by you, predict that this comic will be utter crap and dead within a month, unless you RADICALLY change your attitude towards the project.

Why so serious negative?

[SHAD0Wdump]

Well armok, lets see what you can do. I predict, despite not having seen any srs art by you, predict that will be utter crap and dead within a month.

Careful... He's good.

Two... three year old gamers? Or do they times their candles by six?

As for what Armok said, I think I can put it in a way that makes you feel less angry.

You have to do this yourself. If you go into a project with no idea of what you are doing, it's not going to work out. You can't depend on us for ideas, and if you need to then I'm not sure how you'll do a comic, be it gag a day or arc style. And then you say you'll be doing a comic about a couple of gamers, with stuff. That idea is so creatively drained that I can't even think up a metaphor for how creatively drained it is. Sure, we can help you along, but you need to start and have a very clear idea of where you are going.

So what is stuff, anyway?

Two 80-year-old gamers?

Back in my day, the Game of Life was played on circuit boards with LEDs and had the best graphics of any game available. None o' your schmancy polygons and 2d models.

[Jackrabbit]

And it blew up every so often, but we were happy so long as it blew up near someone we didn't like! You kids these days, fancy schmancy non-deadly gadgets that don't blow up when used makes me sick wish I had a cane my teeth just fell out goddammit.

And your roguelikes...
Well, I beat the original Rogue.
Twenty gajillion times!
Back in my day, there was no z.
It was just good ol' x and y.
None of your diagonals either.
We could only move up, down, left, and right.

Eh. Yeah its not that creative. how about you guys give me some ideas, I draw them, and if I like it Ill keep it going

[Jackrabbit]

I'm not thinking up the ideas for you. If you want to do that, start a request thread.

[Org]

Well geez, dont get all offensive. I was only asking.

Do you not like me or something.

[kholhaus]

Draw Gordon Freeman highfiving Albert Einstein in a 20 foot jump-five, while Black mesa blows up in the background.

Well geez, dont get all offensive. I was only asking.

It's not that, sorry if I sounded offended.

Basically, a comic is something you have to do yourself. One thing that will guarantee it's demise is relying on others for your ideas. Especially considering you'll start out almost totally unknown and it will take you, by my reckoning, upwards of a year to become popular. Depending on other people for ideas is a death sentence. If you just wanted to start a thread about drawing comics of what people request, well, everyone knows you on this board so that would probably work. A comic though? No chance.

Draw Gordon Freeman highfiving Albert Einstein in a 20 foot jump-five, while Black mesa blows up in the background.

If you just want to do requests within the thread HELL YES DO THIS.

[Org]

Sure, Ill do requests

[Jack_Bread]

Draw a nuclear explosion and a hallway explosion hi5ing.
