Gee, remember that comic me and _Kilburn were thinking of making? Before the onslaught of other comics assaulted this forum? Well, we made the huge mistake of actually going ahead with it. So without further ado, here is strip #01.
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w220/GrimOswald/WromAgentsmall.jpg (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/50592069/)
Note: The thread title is the actual name of the comic, but that doesn't fit on DA. :p
Note 2: Just so you know, I don't mind requests at all. And providing it's not an absoloutely appallingly crap sigworm, it'll probably make it in. Now some might say that's not such a great way to write a comic, but I say it takes only one big crowd scene...;)
EDIT: Because of overwhelming demand from myself, I've decided to add the links to this thread too whenever a new comic comes out.

Woah, a decent/real comic. Goodness!
I'd like to see more soon.
And yeah, feel free to use Slick. He's a pretty easy character to use for any story and can usually bring out the best in any comic if used right. [/ego]

Nice job.
So is this an author/artist partnership, or an alternate strips job?

GrimOswald
11 Mar 2007, 09:51
Thanks guys.
And it's an author/artist partnership. I write 'em, he draws 'em. *Nods sagaciously*

Oh so this is Kilburn's artwork, I thought it reminded me of his comic thread.:p Keep up the good work guys.

I said it in the other thread, and I'll say it again, _Kilburn's artwork is great.
Don't know about Grim_Oswald's writing yet, but if it's as good and funny as _Kilburn's art, then we've got a real winner on our hands!
Keep it up. Oh, and MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! Supreme* amazing* detective Melon!

I'm rather glad you said that, considering you have a main role. :p
And the second strip should be finished by this time tomorrow. I hope.

Actually, I picked Akuryou because of an idea someone PM'd me. I won't name this person, but I'd like to thank them from the bottom of my heart, and let them know that my door is always open.
And just be thankful you have a role rather than a cameo. (It's not easy giving someone like Skel a personality you know)

That is very disturbing.
I don't care if I get a cameo or a role, as long as I'm in. :p

Well skel is kind of random. Kind of like LBUABUABBH (maybe exxagerated) every second- but half the time he is the baron von something evil worm, if ya-know-what-i-mean?

Ooh. Nice. Good art work and what looks like an interesting story that will be developed.

Please keep it up.
And I would like to be put in, if there's any good point for a hopelessly optimistic person to be shoved in.

A comic that seems to have a well planned plot... what a rare thing these days :p And the drawings are good, too, so... *requests*

14 Mar 2007, 13:23
Ah this is so good. If you don't continue I will have to hurt you.
Seriously.

GrimOswald
14 Mar 2007, 14:29
Again, thanks for the praise. I can't deny it, I am truly brilliant. *Nods sagaciously*
Oh yes, and I edited my first post to include links to them all, as this thread will undoubtedly become filled with posts worshipping me as a god. Which is cool with me.
... i'm in it...
But for how long? *Suspicious music plays*

OH GREAT AND MIGHTY OSWALD! HEAR ME! My crops are growing in well, so there will be plenty of beer for you, oh lord, but the nonbelievers on your back-side really need to be dealt with before they cause any more harm :p

Now, THIS is a proper comic. I mean, one of those with storyline.

Some of the speech bubble order in #2 is a little confusing, but still, good job.

I'm liking this more and more. Great art and very good humour and plot. Just don't fizzle it out when the comic phase does. :p
Oh, and put me in if you feel like it.

Yes, that's you. Strip #03 will demonstrate how you're not exactly the wordiest book on the shelf.
And just so you guys know, I give _Kilburn the new script straight after he finishes drawing the current one, so you can only ever blame him for delays. :p
GERBILS.
WHERE? *Gets out knife and fork*

_Kilburn

Damnit, if only I've not become a MUGEN addict.... I would have more time to draw the comic. XD
