The Comic Authors/Appreciators Club

[Infinity]

Approved by PsiUmbreon.

As the title suggests this is a club for the discussion of comics in general and a place for comic makers and appreciators to bond.

If you want to share with us some works in progress or looking for a quick tip for your comic, feel free to abuse this thread for them.

Just ask to join and you'll be added to the list.

Blueguy was kind enough to make a button for us to use and here it is:



Beautiful Butch was kind enough to make us another button for our little club.

The sprout that is this club has been watered and it will grow into something hopefully.

Hey, I'm here, so lets get the discussion started.

For an upcomming comic, I need some background help. I just can't seem to make a rocky texture. Could you guys help me?

 

[Bagonclaw]

I'll join. I'm a bit busy right now, so I can't discuss yet.

 

[TheDarknessWithin]

Heh, i'll join. I have nothing better to do right now anyways.

For an upcomming comic, I need some background help. I just can't seem to make a rocky texture. Could you guys help me?

I can't help you there. Although, *thinks* have you tried resources mentioned in the second comic contest?

 

[Infinity]

I'd help ya, but I don't know how to make it either.

What is everyone's favorite comic?

 

[blueguy]

Bonjour, people! Blueguy shall joininzeheimerstrudel, I suppose, as we're never going to get a Comic Café ... *grumbles*

And, Infinity, do you mean any comic, or from the Fan Comics forum in your question?

 

[Infinity]

Anything in general. I'll sign you up.

 

[TheDarknessWithin]

I'd help ya, but I don't know how to make it either.

What is everyone's favorite comic?

Does it have to be sprite or on SerebiiForums? If not, then i'd have to say, CD3 of FB20XL(shortened for post space).

Hmm never heard of that one. Do you have a link to it?

 

[Mastercougar]

Did someone say they needed a rocky texture??

Yeah, I know I should have dropped you a line first, Infinity.

BUT A COMIC MAKER WAS IN NEED!

 

[Infinity]

Well... Music make you lose control and winged Enteis take to the skies. Since you are an enthusiast I'll just add you to the list.

So what do people think of the contests? Fun? Interesting? Boring? Cheesecake?

 

[Mastercougar]

Fun to watch. I'm thinking of entering the next appearing contest, and doing something with false drama...

My fave comic.....well....

Kid Radd is a great tale with humor, plot, and animation. This is the highest expectation for a sprite comic.
NC is how NOT to do a comic visualy, but the comic's humor exseeds the lack of visual.
Pokemon X is the highest expectation on how to do a GOOD pokemon comic. 3d effects, humor, and May's Boobs. How can anyone NOT like it?
Loser Sprites may not be as flashy or funny as the other 3 above, but it is a great comic nontheless. Few clishes here & there, but I keep with it. Meta Knight as a pirate is teh roxorz.
My new comic of the month, Heros Inc, is more plot based. It might have a joke or two, but it's all plot. I gave a reveiw on N-Parody. Check it.

------------------------------------------------
Davis' Comic News:
my little segment showing what happened in my 2 comics, Shiny Man 64 DS & Meta Knight's Revenge. Once I post here, the comic news will be at the bottom of the post.

Shiny Man: Yoshi hosts a ranting show "You know what really Grinds my Gears" based off of the debate show Peter talked on in the Stewie Griffin movie. Shiny Man stops by to tell Yoshi (who he thinks is the Princess) that he's going. We also see Azumi's Fangirls pick up for Rex, and Darth Vader disagreeing to the ending of Episode 3. Check it out.

 

[Mastercougar]

I've seen Kid Radd all the way through (excellent, excellent, excellent!)

I've dabbled a bit in NC and Loser Sprites. Pretty good.

Now I'm checking out Pokemon X. It's a little crude for my taste, but amusing nonetheless. And it's visually stunning.

I plan to give Heroes Inc a try. Expandin' my horizons and all.

I dunno about my personal favorite. 8BT is the funniest, but El Goonish Shive is the one I pay the most attention to.

 

[Infinity]

The only two that I pay a lot of attention to are VGCats and Fur Will Fly. Fur Will Fly is the only furry comic that has won my utmost respect. The plot is way out there (what can you expect out of a furry comic, heh), but I love the character development and humor. VGCats is just a classic comic, need I say more?

Ctrl + Alt + Del is also funny, I don't give it as much attention as I should. Winter-een-mas!

The way you are talking about Pokemon X it sounds like you are talking about Pokemon XXX. Whoa, is that remixed music (sheesh that must eat away at their site space)? I want something like that for N-Parody now, heh.

 

[Quackers]

Mastercougar, thanks for the texture. Now, I can finish the comic I'm working on. I'll reply when its finished.

 

[blueguy]

I think people are giving Pokémon X a little bit too much praise. I've read a good deal of it, and while it's entertaining, it's not the best out there. It tended to be more funny at the beginning (ma-choking the chicken XD), but became boring after a while ... :/

Anyways... we should start up some sort of conversation about ze PCCA's.

 

[Infinity]

Pokemon X's plot moved way too slow... It may just be my bias against Journey comics, but it bored me a bit.

Well uh, not much to talk about for the PCCA's until the nominations are up on that page. My general nominations were thrown in favor of four of my favorite Serebii authors. You know who you are.

Looks like this is the unofficial hub for Serebii comic events, woo.

I am going to add a lot to the FAQ soon (now even less people will read it because it will be even longer ) here are some things I will be adding:
Usage of low IQ characters
Usage of Villans
Heros are not Uber!
Intelligent Humor
Setting up the Plot
Plot Speed
Violence
Usage of Alcohol
A Professional's work verses a Newbie's work (Visual aids!)
Extensive Critiquing Methods
Relationships

I'm considering making many visual aids so people can easily see what I am talking about. Reading all of that is tedious, but it is helpful.

Again if you see people who are in severe help in making comics, critique, etc. point them in the direction of the FAQ, Do's and Don't, and Academy. DON'T MAKE GOTH GUY MORE GOTH!

One of my goals is to make the Serebii Comics forum an elite comic forum. To raise everyone's comics to be at least semi-professional.
