Well, looking over the site, the winner of last year was Hero by Night, so I don't think they're aiming for anything other than superhero stuff.warofwinds wrote:Well, congrats for them!

Pity they don't list any links to see samples from their top 50 (not that i found).

How about parodies of parodies of parodies?mcDuffies wrote:Even superhero parodies are old.warofwinds wrote:Well, congrats for them! I hope something new and original comes of this, and not just superhero-in-spandex. Unless it's satirical of course.
Or a tarantino-esque "Tribute".
Both superheroes and superhero parodies are old, but either can be entertaining if done well and, well, differently. The adventures of Superman have been done this way that way and every other way, but there's no reason why the adventures of paperclip man or a superhero running around the 1800s couldn't be interesting.

yes, i'd love to see more college roommate strips, strips all about videogames, and most of all, a fantasy featuring magic elves that fight evil orcs. Yes, they've all been done before, but not "in the manga style."warofwinds wrote:Well, congrats for them! I hope something new and original comes of this, and not just superhero-in-spandex.

...sorry for the embittered rage. I just uploaded some art to DA and got pissed because I couldn't figure out what fucking catagory to use. I don't speak/read japanese so I don't know where to put my shit.
