| Yeah, if you're a real oldbie, you might remember those pretty crappy comic strips I churned out. (If not, they can be found here. Yeah, really bad. I know.) Anyway, I decided to restart the strip, with an actual plot this time. See how Adamant got his powers, watch him join up with other heroes like SomerZ and Goldor, and cheer as he throws fireballs in the faces of various villains. Fun for everybody. I'll eventually create a thread at BnG once I have a decent amount of strips (4-5 or so) and have finished the logo I'm working on (pretty simple. Just the 4 main heroes (Adamant, SomerZ, Goldor and Maijin) facing the 4 main villains (Platinal, Lord Zort, Red Blazer and Master C) (Those characters should be known to at least some of the SF-ers. They've all been in more than one story) in front of some flashy background. ) Anyone, here's the first strip. No plot or anything yet, just a simple introduction.  EDIT: Yeah, I should probably reword it. It doesn't really sound right. Especcially not the first panel. (edited by Adamant on 04-21-04 03:03 PM) |

| I remember that, with that one person using a Ness sprite. And for some reason, Norway looks like a giant wang. Sorry. But the comic is still good. (edited by CY4STFU on 04-21-04 04:17 PM) |

Originally posted by CY4STFU Your maybe mean that Sweden and norway together look like an wang... thanks for that.  (norway alone dosen't look like the famous genital.  )Good start at least, it seems promising when I compare it with the older comics. I'm not fond of the quality of the maps however but... it's an good start.  |

Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer Yeah, I know. The original had better-looking maps, but the file size was more than 3 times this one. (Hm, the area that's being magnified in the third panel is way too huge on the scandinavia map. I really should work more on this strip, and clean up the script a bit as well. It's not very good. I'll see what I can do tomorrow.) |

| Hopefully. These are a lot more work as well. I no longer just paste some sprites onto a two-toned background and write something stupid in a speech bubble. Anyway, here's strip 2:  And yes, that last panel looks horrible. Anyone have any idea how I can make it look decent? (and look, "hidden" anti-communism propaganda. Yay.)

Well, here's the third strip. I believe this turned out pretty well. The broken monitor looks much better this time (not perfect, but stilll...). Yes, there is a reason for the darkness. You'll find out next time, but I'll just say it has to do with me being lazy. The final line is something Adamant would definitly say in a situation like this. I've also decided how to present the comic. I'll do the 6 first strips, then I'll redo the crappy ones (1 and 2, currently), finish that damn logo, and THEN make a thread at BnG. |

| The computer looks like an terminal that is stuck to the wall (Goldeneye cradle style...), but then it's dark in that comic so it's hard to see if that is an table or a wall. I feel like my monitor is sucking me in right now... |

 The cast doubles as we introduce a new character (yes, he looks a lot like "Adamant". He'll only be around for 2 strips anyway, so who cares about his looks? This is also the reason it's dark.) So, anyone remember Gamey? Apart from having a horrible name (Yeah, he'll eventually drop it), he didn't have much of a personality, so he was kinda shoved aside most of the time. I know he was in the FF3 parody, where he drank all of Cid's beer. (And yes, that's all I remember him doing. He likes beer, there's his personality) Also, our only clue to what's going on kinda went down the drain. Oooh, the suspense. (edited by Adamant on 04-26-04 03:40 PM) |

| A: As I already said in the AIM convo, way to go with a Hot Shots! reference in the thread title. B: I think it's great that you're starting the strip up again... Maybe we should remake an Aelj-site, hmm? C: Looks good so far. An improvement from the last strips, graphically. D: It is Sweden and Finland together that looks like a Wang, if you remove Norway. This was actually an argument used for Norway entering the EU, because Sweden and Finland on the Euro coins looked indecent without Norway. |

Yeah, it took some time, and you probably all thought I had abandoned the comic, as I tend to do, but.. Yeah, it's bad, I know. Don't mess around with the paint bucket tool, or you'll see the horrible job I did with it (there's about 5 different shades of black there, but they're all very similiar, so..) The door looks pretty crappy, and I don't think the text boxes look too good. But yeah. Only one more strip left, plus the logo, and I'll start redoing the bad strips before making the BnG thread. |

| Yeah, I should've been done with the intro and logo by now, but Sprites.inc is down, and I don't have the sprite sheets I need (if anyone happen to have a Power Battle/Fighters Mega Man sheet and a MM7 Bass sheet, I'd be happy). But since I didn't have anything better to do, I redid strip 1 and 5. (I can't get that damned computer in strip 2 to look right, so it'll stay like that for now.) Anyway, compare the two versions and stuff.   |
