Warbot_001: Don't forget to press 9!

Eldezar · 04-01-2009, 01:08 AM

I know, I know. Only mods allowed to make new comic threads. Go ahead and ban me. However, there is not yet an official Warbot in Accounting sub-forum, and almost 2 hours after update only Brian seems to be online, but his focus has been on the new site rather than starting a thread.

I figured that those heathens with "normal" sleep schedules may want a specific place to discuss Warbot, as well as Brian and Zack being able to get some feedback.

So, at risk of Fifth and Meister raining death upon me with their super mod powers (did I mention I think you guys are great?), I'll open discussion.

------------------------

I love how Brian instantly implements his theme of a robot who happens to be an accountant. Almost everybody has that same problem with a fax or office phone the first time they use them, and every time I just wanted to smash the thing to bits.

I was disappointed at first as I was expecting color, but that's just because of the preview concept art we had seen when the idea was first brought to us. Should have known better. Still, I like the art style. The grey shades throw me off a little, particularly in the more detailed areas of the art. Still, I love it and eagerly await the next strip.

I actually did a spit-take towards the end there; if that's not a sign of success, I dunno what is!
Warbot's just became my favourite webcomic.

For a first comic of a new series, i think it was quite the great start!

Just so we're clear, Warbot dosen't speak?

Zack Finfrock · 04-01-2009, 01:43 AM

As far as I know he doesn't, but I'm only the artist/co-creator. So what do I know?

I can hear Brian now. "You know nothing. Ugly."

Wouldn't even have thought of this but you had to go ahead and mention it. GET THE FUCK OUT

nah, I think we can give it a shot with Warbot threads. If we end up getting three new comic threads with every update like we used to with 8BT, we'll extend that rule to this subforum.

I should talk about the comic. The comic is amazing and I'll continue to read it.

Hey, it's always fun choosing which duplicate thread is inferior and canning it.

Sort of.

While I did find this strip pretty damned funny, I worry that the gag won't last.

I'm pretty sure I could read that one strip every day for the rest of my working lifetime and find it hilarious.

I thought accountants and lawling was a bad thing?

No no, accountants and lolling is fine. Accountants lolling themselves is like something outta Lovecraft or Ann Coulter.
