How many webcomics have you had?

Kalle B · Post by **Kalle B** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 2:25 pm

Hey!

I'm sure I'm not the only one here who has a couple of failed webcomic projects behind them. What did you work on before you started the webcomic(s) you're doing today?

As for myself, I'm on my fourth comic. Of the three previous, two were gag-a-day type comics, and one was a superhero/fantasy story about dinosaurs from the moon

Not failed...Just hiatus'd. I have... Mohawk, IftP, Chat Rouge, World X, and I use to do X Review.

So we're on 5, is it?

Just the one. I have several several ideas for others, tho'.

In addition to the two running on my site right now, I've finished three previous comics: Carface, a miniseries about a guy with a car for a face; A God's Life, a graphic novel about a teenage god; and Mnemesis, a graphic novel about dead people. I've also done one comic that I abandoned after two pages, and another one is in progress but currently exists only in print. Whew!

Started, but aborted (and never online, just for me):
-A fantasy comic about an archeologist's son who finds a winged girl. (12 pages).
- A little girl who finds a lamp (an electrical one) with a genius inside. She asks 100 more wishes as the 3rd wish. (3 pages and I got bored O__o)
- The story of a girl who fails nearly every subject and has to study during the summer (WTF?)
-The story of (yet another) girl who moves to her dead grandma's mansion and finds out that her grandma's assistant is a kind of Golem that was made from a cute plushie. A cat who is a really good poker player and the ghost of a grand-uncle living in the house, too. (first chapter).
- Another fantasy comic which underwent several versions >__<
- when I was 11, a spinoff of Sailor Moon, crappy as hell, made with a friend (aaaagggghhh).

-probably, more...

I don't have any previous ones. Noir et Compagnie is my first and hopefully my one and only.

Before "Skunk," I had planned to bring a comic called "Disaster Squirrel" to the 'net. Problem is, I was trying to give it continuity, which, for a strip based on the random funny things that pop into my head, didn't work. I may bring it back later though in some form. Anyway, here's a sample:

Um, I have another that I stopped, and another that never got put online. Which is for the best, I guess. It wasn't really going anywhere, and gave me a few ideas I could use for the future.

MixedMyth · Post by **MixedMyth** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 3:04 pm

Nope, just the one for me. And 3 and a half years later, there it is!

ISOHE is the first (and so far only) of my comics to ever get posted online.

I started a couple of others, and did about a dozen pages worth of each before quitting. One was an urban fantasy about a girl whose magic power was sealed, because an alien princess's soul was feeding on it to stay alive. I stopped working on it because I really liked the story and the characters, and I thought I wasn't able to do them justice. The other was about a woman who woke up in a strange alien landscape full of lacework trees and ant-centaur people. I stopped doing that one because I have enough trouble drawing real-world objects and people

I currently have 2.

Reinder · Post by **Reinder** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 3:28 pm

Goodness...

Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan is my ongoing project. Five years and counting, with some success.
The Lives of X!Gloop is my new pet project that I can't shut up about. The material is very old but I've only recently started putting it online.
Courtly Manners(2) is a recurring thing that I'll get back to in a few months' time.
White House in Orbit hasn't been updated in two years, but I still haven't given up hope that I'll have an opportunity to get back to it some time.
Tips for Lazy Buggers went on for years as an irregular thing, sort of a precursor to How Not To Run a Comic, come to think of it...
Pin Drop and The Eye of The Underworld were one-shots, which doesn't mean they might not some time have sequels.
And there's lots of odds and ends scattered across teh intarweb....

Uncaringmachine · Post by **Uncaringmachine** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 3:31 pm

I have another idea for a comic called "Hell Toupee" and it's about, well, a computer geek who unknowingly purchases a toupee from Hell with special demonic powers. Hilarity ensues! But I dunno if I'll ever use it for a webcomic. And I've also thought about doing another superhero comic with the characters I created ten years ago.

Joel Fagin · Post by **Joel Fagin** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 3:55 pm

I had another comic called the Conversations Within Elsydeon which was a fan-comic for a series of Sega role playing games called Phantasy Star. Ran for just over a hundred comics and was correctly finished and tied up.

I'm still on my first, unless you cound the deliberately short-lived series of comics I rattled of and only ever posted on the Worms forum. Which I don't.

Axonite · Post by **Axonite** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 5:13 pm

Just Station V3 and its spinoff Z7 for me, and they're both still going. No other comic I've done has made it online, unless you want to count the time I scanned one single panel comic I had drawn and used it as a Station V3 bonus (as "One of Emmit's relatives?").

There was one comic I was working on 5 or 6 years ago set at a radio station that probably would have gone online if I had kept working on it. I don't remember if I ever scanned any strips in before I decided I didn't like it much and buried it in a file cabinet drawer.

Warren · Post by **Warren** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 5:25 pm

I've had six... three no longer available online, three available on my site (2 on hiatus.)

And a new project starting soon, maybe.

JBerserk · Post by **JBerserk** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 5:46 pm

I had 4 miserable, failed comics. Back then, I couldn't draw as good as I could today! Almost 6 years of failure has brought me shame, but I kept trying, and I finally did it! My years of practice finally paid off!

The Geek Adventures - about me and 4 of my friends doing incredibly stupid shit. [2 pages]
Dragon Stone - a guy who travelled all over the world to find dragon stones to kill evil and save his sister. (I can't believe I did this crap! I also tried to put this in Keenspace! T_T) [2 pages]
Cyber Hero Rax - The internet needs a hero to find a hacker involving several murders. [3 pages]
Vasarune - The future of the earth after a meteor crashed, and wiped out the human race. There were survivors, and they lived peacefully, until beasts started attacking the villages. A team of fierce warriors will find out why is this happening. [10 pages]

Well... these were never published on the internet, so they are never to be seen by the human race! Mwahahaha!

Levi-chan · Post by **Levi-chan** » Sun Jul 17, 2005 5:55 pm

I had...uh...a lot, really.

S.Hell - a comic about the day a guy decided to kill himself (6 pages.)

Ashes of Lindisfarne - a semi-factual account on what happened during an attack by Vikings on a place called Lindisfarne (10 pages.)

Ashes of Lindisfarne 2 - a made-up account of two lovers when the attack on Lindisfarne happened (8 pages)

Binary Man - the adventures of Binary Man, and his nemesis, Analog Bob! (3 pages)

Graphite Dreams - Love Hina ripoff (3 pages)

I'm so disgusted with myself right now.
