They always want to make their own look better than the other guys. Of course, this is no contest in comparison to 8-Bit Theater.

Naw cause I mean this Mirai/WF thing isn't even the norm, usually it's just some dick who's never done a comic in his life showin' up to call something someone worked real hard on an ugly piece of shit.

This story will conclude on Thursday. For now, I have classes to attend to.

Now I think I understand Brian a bit more. "Control C Control V doesn't hit itself!"

Dun dun duuuuun...?

Well done Mirai Gen! Even I, who have only a limited understanding of Robots That Are In Disguise, find this quite the enjoyable comic.

I dunno. I'm liking you comic so far, but this one came out kinda weak. Too much dialogue, but not enough funny. Megatron's tirade could've used more flavor, something that would've either made it funny on its own, or it could've used more G1 quotes.

Or both.

(Or a snippy, remark from BB or Grimlock. Maybe commenting on his new Safety Megatron look, or the fact that he's so yelly.)

And I hope you've got fun little personality quirk(s) planned for the M-Tron. Maybe something like terrets syndrome could work (where a person can't help but swear every so often, 'cept in his case its insult Autobots), or at least something to make him other than just the cardboard cut-out his G1 character was. Of course, that only works if he applogizes for the remarks afterwards.

(Of course, doing a joke w/ an actual card-board cut out has its merits...)

I dunno, whenever I went to write for this episode I kept on going back to it and second guessing-myself. Maybe it could've used more G1 Meg-like statements, but something about "The rent SHALL rise, autobot scum!" just stood out to me.

Ah well. They can't all be winners.

Sky Warrior Bob 02-14-2007 02:11 PM

True, but on the other hand, instead of trying to 2nd guess yourself, have you considered running the draft comic by another person? Brian even admitted to doing that in a recent comic. It also makes just good sense.

And I finally thought of something that would've made the comic funnier, if you put it in the empty space under Megatron (maybe using the a colored text effect, like Brian does for inner monologues).

Grimlock: Stupid bucket-head talking in third person! Him so stupid.

Never thought about doing that. I'll keep that in mind.

And you do realize that, by suggesting you have someone read the comic and let you know if it's any good or not, you almost guarantee that I'm going to ask you to do it, right?

And now that I look at the comic again, the dialogue between Grim and BB is pretty stale...

Yeah, I pretty much assumed that. I mean, you've been vetting a number of your G1 ideas past me already, it isn't like it'd be anything really new.
