The Official Short Comic thread of bitter tears and smiles.

[McDuffies]

Read faster, Duff.

Heh.

I've actually read a few of em. I like how yours jumps from the mundane to the bizzarre like that. Was hoping for an image of a worm riding an a-bomb at the end, though.

Nah, it'd be too much, I don't like when people are hommaging their favourite films too much.

Paul's was cool, too. Cute animals playing out the violent absurdity of today make for good television.

Yeah, it's one of the best so far. Which makes me think, either I'm mixed up, or it's only a part people who said they'd participate.

You're right. I just like the image in my head.

Uh, yeah, what the fuck. Some event this turned out to be. Far more people on the list who didn't post something than those that did.

[McDuffies]

I'll assemble wall of shame now.

Edit:

WALL OF SHAME (mean comments for free):
K-Dawg (wimped out on his own dare)
CJ (there's no sex, lesbians, Keon, or comic in this comic)
KWill (he was detailing the stone wall so much, he only got to draw one page so far)
Senshi (those most enthusiastic fall first)
Phact (the file name of that preview should have been: fail.jpg)
Merc (was too busy posting conflicting sketches)
Prettydragoon (thought if she quieted down, we'd forget)
Birdie (got drunk. for three consecutive days)
Dotty (tried: two, finished: none)
Tellurider (thus there were no zombies)
Almighty Pyro (his photoshop exploded. bear lady was taken with the explosion)
Tynan (he missed like a wrist that is pissed)
Magpye (uh... I have nothin')
Laura (she missed the deadline with style)
Keffria (she wimped out among the first... like, when she applied)
War (where'd all the giant tits go?)
Phinmagic (Why the hell yes?!!!)
Pimpette (good news: she decided on what style to use yesterday)
Sin (she's still never written a story between 5 and 10 pages in her entire life)
Squaz (and we never saw him again)
Jesusabdullah (his liver and spleen are MM's)
Tri (we'd laugh at him but we already did that earlier)
Claude (he thought he'd drop out. he was right)
Komi (she was very quiet... too quiet)
Robin (she had a plot! and posted concept art!)
Lunar (from the wimpy list to the wall of shame: bad trade)
Mort (he hoped we'd forget about him)
Bean (he had a plot)
Steverules (he is holding the five pages story about me all for himself)
Risky (didn't get a birthday tablet)
Joel Fagin (wasn't participating but I want him on wall of shame anyways)
Sput

LATE LATEES
Mason
LC (noone shot him a decent script)

[CaptainClaude]

Hey, at least I know myself.

[MixedMyth]

Sweet! I'm not going hungry tonight!

[KWill]

I've done two, only that one is a map. But page two is nearly completely pencilled...

I hope to get it done some time.

[Jesusabdullah]

Sweet! I'm not going hungry tonight!

I was using those..?

Also, I never said I'd draw something. :/ In fact, I clearly went from "maybe" to "I got other shit to do!" Though, this is kinda making me want to make comics now.

[Risky]

I got my tablet!


Aw... too late, already shamed. Insert bitter tears.

There are almost three times as many who made the wall of shame. That's slightly disconcerting.

So... who's up for doing a 24 hour comic on October 18th?

[Mason]

A heavy dose of Mignola and Miller. Late though, I'll admit.

That IS slightly disconcerting, I shall now mock those wall-of-shamers; Mock mock mock. There, enough, you've been mocked now.

Urgh, the dread 24 hour marathon of backaches and dizziness. I am game however, if I'm not sitting alone doing it.

Prequels and preludes? I call shenanigans, shenanigans, you hear!

[Jesusabdullah]

So... who's up for doing a 24 hour comic on October 18th?

I should do this.
Hell, I'm thinking about doing one this weekend--but only thinking about it! I still need to work on the thing that I decided to do instead of this!

[May Day]

24 hour comic? I'd be up for that!!

[Prettydragoon]

I made the Wall of Shame! Yay me!

[Pimpette]

I only ended up finishing two pages, and spent the rest of the month randomly working on other comics and constantly rewriting the script for the last few pages.
It'll get done eventually, but it's safe to say I've basically failed this.

You call that enough?

[Foob]

It's more than adequate. Nothing burns as the deep shame of failure, and nothing anybody can say is worse than the self discriminations of those who breaks their word.


*wriggley eyebrows smiley*

[McDuffies]

Thaqt's better.

[Ti-Phil]

24 hour comic? Hmm, if I don't have work that day, perhaps.

[BrownEyedCat]

24-hour comic? Dude, it took me a month and a half to do TEN pages. If I tried to do 24 in a day, I would DIE.

I might pick an utterly less interesting realistic goal and devote a day to comicking, though.
