I humbly submit to you a comic that I'm starting. Only the first strip is up, and it's not very good. And probably not very entertaining, although the pace will pick up very quickly. Any feedback would be appreciated (but keep in mind that I can't draw and I am very new at spriting.)

How curious

So are the characters found elsewhere, or did you draw them in paint or something? Looks like it can become something pretty good, So good luck with it!

They're from a Mega Man game, I'm sure of it!
The Dean is obviously Dr. Light, the Blue Kid is a palette-swapped Mega Man, and the little girl is probably Roll.

exactly. Someone with entirely too much spare time created a sprite sheet from screenshots from MegaMan 7, I believe. Then I downloaded the sheet, and made some minor alterations. I don't if I'll use sprites from other games or not. Hopefully, I'll get good enough to actually make the chars look different. (Particularly finding another way to pose the Roll sprite...)

"Got caught filling the elevator with potatoes."

Isn't the professor in the cartoon also the maker of Mega Man? i seem to remember a doctor looking like him in a mega man game from snes, but i can't quite place him...

CaptainPenguin · « **Reply #6 on:** April 07, 2004, 04:25:48 PM »

The professor is Dr. Light, Mega Man's creator.

Grevenon · « **Reply #7 on:** April 07, 2004, 06:09:06 PM »

Yes! i thought i recognized him from somewhere! I haven't played a snes mega man game in years! maybe its because blockbuster doesn't carry them anymore...

The sad thing is, I didn't make up the potatoes thing. I have friends who actually did that.

Grevenon · « **Reply #9 on:** April 07, 2004, 10:43:27 PM »

you mean the entire elevator? or did they get caught only part way through?

Ria Hawk · « **Reply #10 on:** April 07, 2004, 11:58:04 PM »

I think they filled it about a third full. But they didn't get caught at it.

CaptainPenguin · « **Reply #11 on:** April 08, 2004, 08:24:10 AM »

What, did they run out of potatoes?

Ria Hawk · « **Reply #12 on:** April 08, 2004, 10:29:40 AM »

I'm not sure. It would have to be a hell of a lot of potatoes to fill an entire elevator.

Grevenon · « **Reply #13 on:** April 08, 2004, 05:49:49 PM »

Wow. that must have been quite a feat. Did they just get tired of throwing potatoes in the elevator? i would think that a lot wouldn't stay in and then roll around on the floor.

CaptainPenguin · « **Reply #14 on:** April 08, 2004, 05:54:53 PM »

Well, in any case, the thread isn't about potatoes filling an elevator, it's about Ria's webcomic.

"Called Professor Zane Satan"

haha. is that his name or did he call him Satan? If he called him Satan, then that reminds me of one of my teachers...

Ria Hawk · « **Reply #16 on:** April 08, 2004, 08:27:54 PM »

called him Satan.

Ria Hawk · « **Reply #17 on:** April 10, 2004, 01:43:47 PM »

next one's up

Grevenon · « **Reply #18 on:** April 10, 2004, 06:39:11 PM »

what one's up?

CaptainPenguin · « **Reply #19 on:** April 10, 2004, 09:24:48 PM »

The next comic strip is up, smart one.

Ria Hawk · « **Reply #20 on:** April 17, 2004, 11:52:16 AM »

So, the first part of my first major story arc is up.

I like it. Kind of 8 bit theater. It makes me want to learn how to rip sprites from the rom's I've downloaded and make my own. And I have 527 roms downloaded for just such occasions...

Just plain FUN.

Knives? No....Dammit.

Should you be interested, The Shyguy Kingdom is where I've gotten most of my sprite sheets. And there are a lot.
