New Comic Friday: The Notebag

Mostly based on a true story. Yes, the first comments were made, and I did on a different occasion wear a lampshade on my head, but at no time as of this writing did we feed a back pack dollar bills in an erotic showing.

I guess we didn't make that banner either. Huh.

Anywho, we, as in me and John, are discussing moving the format of the blog to a more webcomic savvy site. Seeing as only a few people may actually read this, and I really can't say it'll impact their day too drastically, it should be a pretty easy pill to swallow.

you're wife was teaching

(sort of) New Comic Friday: Yes I know it's spelled panini

Well, it's not new, barely still Friday, but here's your rehashed comic.

We ended up deciding that the joke I was going to present was too good for a shitty looking comic. So next week, new comic in a new style. Enjoy.

I Suck

Well, work was busy for the first time in a long time, which means I didn't get the comic done.

Not that it's an excuse, I should have had the thing done days ago. Thing is, sometimes I just can't get into the mood to work on any drawings. Like the creativity just comes and goes at will.

Well, the thing is all drawn, just needs colour and dialog (hell, I still might settle with no colour tonight). I will do my best to get it up tonight though, come hell or high water (preferably hell, my shoes have holes in them and I hate wet socks).

Expect the next comic in a much different style and in a new format.

throw rocks at me

I don't have a title

Come on man, the reason you like anime so much is because you lived in China!

Personally, manga is just way too damn short for my liking. Ten doll-hairs can either net me a decent graphic novel that'll kill a couple hours, or a manga that I'll breeze through in about 15 minutes. But, that's just me.

You may say you critique my comics, but you damn well know I'll just ignore anything you have to say and do what I want.

That said, I probably should get to work on the comic, it ain't anywhere near done as of yet.

It's a Problem I'd Say

Few people asked me this, "Which of you drew that comic?" Well, the role of the artist would be Shawn. My role is pretty much critique and help him brainstorm ideas. 

Compare to Shawn, I don't draw as well and as much. Even though people praised my drawings (I do secretly wonder why?), but to me, my arts lack the basics and mainly practice. Shawn has a cartoon-ish style while I am into the anime style. Besides his style of comic is a better fit for our stupid, and exaggerated real-life experience.

My interest in anime is the cause for all other geeky interests. (Those interests are for another post) It'a problem I said. If I happened to stumble upon a manga I haven't read before and after the frist three chapters it caught my interest, I would spend my whole day sitting there and read until the end or the latest chapter. I spent a whole day reading all 300 chapters of a manga before, and each chapter has about 16 to 19 pages. I feel bad doing it, but I know I'll do it again. I did it with Naruto, Bleach, EyeShield 21, Claymore, Slam Dunk, Soul Eater, and countless others. 

It's a problem I'd say, but it's ok. I'm sure someone else will save the world when I'm dwelling on my reading.

New Comic Friday: Buffet School

I would like to proudly state that each of these events did in fact take place, though they were a tad different than how I put them.

Allow me to break it down for you:

Panel1: Absolutely nothing here is exaggerated at all. This is exactly how it went down.

Panel2: The roles here are reversed, since John didn't really get a whole lot of time to shine. I pity the poor bastard.

Panel3: The words weren't spoken, and I didn't actually put hamburger meat in the burrito. Instead I replaced it with soft serve ice cream. It wasn't good.

In attempt to lose some weight, I haven't frequented a Golden Corral in quite some time. I imagine that is both a triumph on my part and quite frankly just for the best. After having unlimited access to a variety of food types for so long, my sometimes dormant autism leaps to the forefront and decides to throw some weird shit together. Of all the crimes I've committed against man, when I reach the Holy Gates, it's these sins that I'll have to answer for.

God help me.

WoW, April Fools!

For those that don't know, I play World of Warcraft. Yes, I'm WoWaddict. Compared to some of the stories I've heard from kids that play WoW, I feel like a saint. 

Anyways, for those that are in the loop about Blizzard Entertainment April Fools' joke every year, this year they presented us Dance Battle System for World of Warcraft.

OMG, WTF, that was the best joke ever next to the Pandaren joke. Able to serve your friends and people you'll never meet with dance moves that you'll never achieve, and within the safety of your computer room. Sign me up! Too bad it's just a joke, but can't you imagine it? What will WoW be like with a dance battle element? I'm sure for role players will be something to do, but for casual players like me that can't talk like people in Lord of the Rings this dance battle is just good clean fun when I'm LFG. 

Blizzard is a great video game company. Unlike EA, Blizzard doesn't have as much games released, but each game they released had been hit after hit such as: StarCraft, World of Warcraft, Warcraft Series, and Diablo Series. Blizzard knows how to build a loyal fans base, and damn good games.

If you want to check out April Fools' jokes by Blizzard for their games, here they are:

StarCraft

Diablo III

Oh Shawn, Japanese is famous for turning anything small. Useful or not, they make them cute and small and girls will eat them up. For crying out loud, they bred cats that won't grow bigger than a shirt pocket.....although.....
