Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXXIV - "Go Go Power Lanterns!"

[HalfTangible]

We noticed.

Magneto, head of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants is doing a better job of being a good guy!
Note: The evil in "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants" is generally not used by the members, because that would be stupid.
Also, does anyone know how to spell Antidisestablishmentarianism? I can't seem to figure it out. See what I did there?

Considering the goal they were trying to achieve in the first place, he's ain't got much to work with =P

[Mina Kobold]

Antidisestablishmentarianism? Just like this: Antidisestablishmentarianism... :smallbiggrin:

And thanks, I'll think I'll set about joining in, then.

What plot are you joining? :smallsmile:

Also, I finally got an excuse for not doing a comic! Homework!

Wait... That came out wrong :smalltongue:

[Worlok]

I'm sinking ABR Corps, currently. It just looks so gloriously weird. :smallbiggrin:

[Maxios]

I don't know how many of you guys post in the FFRP section on these fourms, but I started a thread there set in the Nexus. The thread is a super-team with power rings, and I'd much appreciate it if some of you join it.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I don't know how many of you guys post in the FFRP section on these fourms, but I started a thread there set in the Nexus. The thread is a super-team with power rings, and I'd much appreciate it if some of you join it.

Note: Our power rings are a little bit different than the usual power rings. Pink is fear, and there is no love. Apathy is replacing fear as yellow. Also, nobody knows anything about these rings whatsoever and they are definitely NOT the same as in the Green Lantern stories despite being VERY similar.

I tried to join FFRP once. Did for a little while with a number of characters. But quit after everybody became such jerks after it became abundantly clear that I wasn't really fitting in, and that the kind of story telling I'm proficient in, fancomic style, is incompatible with FFRP style of story telling. So thanks but no thanks.

[Maxios]

I've got Rae to join in it, as well as a ffrper called ThirdEmpower.

To explain the differency of your rings, it could be that their unique, and the plot of the thread would be really similar to the fancomic.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I wouldn't support a shared universe between any FFRP thread you start and our rings, but if anybody else wants to do that it's your prerogative. As long as you don't bring any of it back into our comic (I would hate to have two completely different sets of power rings mixing together to make things really confusing).

I aint joining it, but I won't stop anybody else from. :smallsigh:

[Maxios]

Alright. And don't worry, I won't mix the two universes together.

[Worlok]

Concerning ABR Corps: Is there a stated limit on the number of rings and if yes, are they all already "taken"?

[-skimmer-]

Concerning ABR Corps: Is there a stated limit on the number of rings and if yes, are they all already "taken"?

No, there's no limit. Just refrain from making up new colors and you'll be fine....

[Threeshades]

Concerning ABR Corps: Is there a stated limit on the number of rings and if yes, are they all already "taken"?

the only limit is on how many rings you are allowed to have and that is one. But there are enough rings of any color so anybody can have one.

[Worlok]

Alright, thanks. My actual joining-in may be delayed until the weekend, though, I have a few graphics-related problems. :smallbiggrin:

[Mina Kobold]

I post in half the FFRPGs here, unfortunately I don't post in Nexus :smallfrown:

It's too fast-paced.

Sorry.


To explain the differency of your rings, it could be that they're unique, and the plot of the thread would be really similar to the fancomic.

Why do we need a difference? The two are unrelated at best :smallconfused:

It's okay.

[Darklord Bright]

Okay, yet another "Fantasy DnD story based on a campaign" has popped up, and now I want to go make a comic and put it here just to stop the flow of comics with the same premise...

[Threeshades]

Is it my fault? Did I start this with campaign peter?

[Rae Artemi]

We should make comics out of our Pathfinder campaign. :smalltongue:

[HalfTangible]

We should make comics out of our Pathfinder campaign. :smalltongue:

I thought about it. Then i realized half of the laughter we have is because of how we react to it IRL.

"Does this <censored for safety> employ hobgoblins?"
'Seriously? You really say that?'
'Yes, she really says that.'

I'm pretty sure we're allowed to say brothel...

[HalfTangible]

Can't be too careful. :smalltongue:

[Darklord Bright]

Just do what DnD did for a while and replace all instances of the word with "Festhall".

[Bradakhan]

I've got prelims (back ups for the main exams) coming up for the next two weeks, but I'll try and make at least one comic this weekend, probably FFF:R as I've got an idea for that.
The only one I've figured out for any of the plots right now :smalltongue:

[Worlok]

So, yeah, here's regretfully postponing my actual start of participation. Minor issue, really, related to me not getting it together to make a comic. Back to lurking now. :smallbiggrin:

[CrimsonAngel]

I think I'll make Rae stripping a running gag somehow.

[Rae Artemi]

I think I'll make Rae stripping a running gag somehow.

...

I'm actually pretty okay with this, so long as you include the scar in any back-shots.

[CrimsonAngel]

Heh, alright. :smallwink:

[Rae Artemi]

Heh, alright. :smallwink:

It can't really get any worse than I've already done, what with the harem and a random naked avatar and the beatings and accidentally stripping himself with denimancy and Violet Lantern Rae and... No, actually, I think that's it. Huh. Oh, wait, no, I forgot putting him in a skirt and making him confront himself genderbent. Yeah, that's it. So far.

[CrimsonAngel]

I lol'd... :smallbiggrin:

[Rae Artemi]

Alright, Q, Rae was ridiculously out of character for that, but I don't even care!

Also, Horril is Valtiz's, not Rae's. :smalltongue:

[Green-Shirt Q]

Thanks. Here's the alternate comic.

http://i52.tinypic.com/14e75o8.png

(Inspired by this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glUf4PQ-vuU))

[Rae Artemi]

I'm just posting to elaborate on the level of out of character Rae was in that comic, because I just remembered something that I forgot. Yeah, let's just say when the Yo mama jokes started, Q's head would probably have been off in... oh, about three seconds.

But, as I've said before, Rae is absolutely bonkers, so I'll let it slide. Also because I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

[Zefir]

I think I go join the Latern thing since one of my Nexus char is a Latern now. But could someone tell me how to make the light around the char?

[HalfTangible]

Pose your character.

Duplicate.

Lower.

Change stroke to the color you want.

Make the stroke several pixels thicker than the rest of the character's strokes.

[Zefir]

Thanks I try it out maybe I got a short strip tonight.

Ah. Good thing he didn't. You know, I didn't think he was that crazy. :smalleek:

Here's why I figured the yo mamma joke contest would've been in character. This comic (http://i53.tinypic.com/346vslu.png), which you have confirmed in-character for him (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=9351416&postcount=965), shows him to be a smart ass. And, aside from getting himself whipped, he hasn't demonstrated any seriously insane behaviour in this plot (or any other ABR plot yet, if I recall correctly). I know you told me he was crazy, but you also said it was only when his hair was down. I figured he was a non-comprimising hero/smartass at all other times.


Also, Horril is Valtiz's, not Rae's. :smalltongue:

I know! But haven't you ever heard of Actor Allusion? :smalltongue:

Either way, I'm gald to see that my comic was enjoyed.

[Rae Artemi]

Yes, he can be a smart ass, but he's a smart ass with mommy issues, and that's why it would be out of character. And I said that he is less crazy with his hair down, not absolutely sane. As for why he hasn't shown any real signs of his insanity yet is twofold.
1: Nothing has really happened to set him off yet.
2: I haven't really made enough comics in ABR to really flesh out his characters, partly because of laziness, and partly because I'm still deciding exactly how coocoo bonkers he goes at what points.

Anyway though, I now have an idea for a comic that I will do after I'm done with the thing that I'm doing now. It should probably be up by Thursday, at the latest.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Yes, he can be a smart ass, but he's a smart ass with mommy issues, and that's why it would be out of character.

Ah. Well I didn't know that when I made the comic, obviously. I don't follow the Nexus, so unless you characterize him I won't know how to write for him.

Though now I know "when in doubt, make it funny" and nobody will care. :smalltongue:

Characterizing him is exactly what I'm planning on doing with the comic I have an idea for, and the mommy issues haven't really come up anywhere yet, so it's completely understandable for you to not know of them.

But, yeah, make someone laugh and you can get away with almost anything, a lesson learned well by watching Gabriel Iglesias's comedy routines.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Characterizing him is exactly what I'm planning on doing with the comic I have an idea for, ...

...You're not going to have him take Q's head off, are you? :smalleek::smalltongue:

[Darklord Bright]

If it makes you feel better, I could do it for you.




:smalltongue:

[Rae Artemi]

Not yet. :smallamused:

[HalfTangible]

You know you've thought too hard about magic when you start believing necromancy can be used as a medical treatment.

[Lyinginbedmon]

Well it actually shares a lot of tenements with Conjuration, which is the school that governs the Healing subtype of magic, so there's actually quite a few aspects of Necromancy that can be applied to healing.

Then again, Necromancy also shares some concepts with Illusion.

"Necrotise their bone marrow to fight infections" is enough of a weird stretch without you endorsing it :smalltongue:

[Darklord Bright]

In Arcanum, I believe the only real difference in the Healing and Necromancy skill sets was that they used positive and negative energy, thereby reversing the tasks. Positive energy necromancy = heal, negative = harm. Positive energy necromancy = resurrect, negative = creating zombies.

It was cool, and makes more sense to me, since the only difference between necromancy and healing is that necromancy does the same sorts of things for negative effects. They're two sides of the same coin in my books.

[Silverraptor]

Just wondering, are we doing the fan comic christmas santa this year?

[Lyinginbedmon]

It didn't really come to anything last year, and I imagine most people will be pretty busy with their own arrangements for Christmas as well this year.

Fun little Laws of Magic tidbit:
Necromancy animates intelligent and long-lasting undead creatures by forming a "gravemind" (So called because it was initially developed to have zombies and other minionary undead follow orders with some common sense) with magic that mimics the sapient brain's naturally-existing incarnum networks (Effectively creating a disembodied magical computer).

The gravemind allows the spell to remain stable for much longer periods of time (as the magic generally cycles around within the gravemind rather than freely disseminating into the world) and to react to external stimuli. The more intricate and finely-crafted the gravemind, the more complex behaviour can be produced and the longer the spell can last.

Consequently, Necromancy is responsible in part for almost all modern long-term spells.

[HalfTangible]

I always thought of Necromancy as redistribution, strengthening and sustaining of Life energy through (arcana? incarnum? mana?) whereas resurrection is the reconstruction of a body so that life energy flows naturally (which would be why death from old age would be unavoidable).

That's what Ketham does: he takes life energy from those he kills (or himself, depending on the spell) and uses it to fuel his spells. When another is involved, it's usually in the creation of undead, as he has unlimited life energy due to a specific event in his past. It's one reason he can't use anything but necromancy: he just isn't able to "map" - for lack of a better phrase - the energy properly.

I'm trying to distract myself at the utter abomination i have created to represent DBright until i fix it =(

[Maxios]

Hey guys, I have a question about FFF:
Is FFF: Reboot still active?

If not, I'll make a strip for Endless Winter.

[Mina Kobold]

Hey guys, I have a question about FFF:
Is FFF: Reboot still active?

If not, I'll make a strip for Endless Winter.

I'll be making a FFF:R comic once I've made an entry for IA, an EW comic and played Playstation...

So no, it's not dead, but it's only crawling slowly forward without using it's legs :smalltongue:

Help it up with a comic if you want :smallsmile:

[Maxios]

Thanks. I'll have the strip up tonight :smallbiggrin:

[Maxios]

OK, the strip is up. Constructive Critism is appreciated. Any tips would be appreciated.

[CrimsonAngel]

Grog and Grod should meet, Grog is like a tiny, furry, sophisticated version of Grod.

[Maxios]

Indeed they should meet. It'd be...interesting to say the least.

[Mina Kobold]

A little bit of background info. Maxios is on top of the pirate/air ship that was in the last strips of FFF: Reboot.

That would be the airship of Team Good, no orcs there I'm afraid.

It does have a rather creepy tentacle monster, a crazy captain, a ninja cocobo and some people who are more powerful than is legal in the UNA but no orcs.

Which of course means we now must make a wacky story about how he got there! :smalltongue:

Get thinking guys! We need at least two buckets of mashed potatoes and a stick of dynamite to explain this!

He's the tentacle monster's lover. He's got 2 pounds of mashed potatos in his underwear and eats dynamite.

[Maxios]

To clarify, the guy with the yellow hair is Maxios.

Maybe Grod is a secret agent "0.07" with many ranks in disguise to appear he's human, feeding info to the villains. Maxios is simply the clever guy who found out about it, and set forth to stop Grod.

[CrimsonAngel]

Grod is clever? :smalleek:

But we have only kobolds mooks... Everybody else is somebody's character.

Maybe he is a double agent and disguises himself as a kobold when reporting to Team Evil but secretly works for [Insert third group with access to mashed potatoes and dynamite here]?

[Maxios]

Your idea works Keveak. He works for a secret agency, dedicated to being neutral. They have spies in Team Good, and Team Evil, and will soon try to destroy both.
Maxios figured it out because the cook made Orc food for "Orcish Day", which no one else liked except Grod. The food was 3 pounds of Mashed Potatoes. Maxios followed Grod around afterwards, suspicious, only to find out Grod was going to blow the airship up with TNT.

[V'icternus]

Oddly enough, Team Evil has harsher hiring practises than Team Good, which includes/included an Alien bent on world domination.
And killing birds.

[HalfTangible]

I just noticed your avy has heterochromia. Or whatever the word is.

[Green-Shirt Q]

And Qs. Don't forget about the couple of Qs.

...

Actually, you know what? Forget about them. One of them has been capturned and brainwashed by a gnome and the other is on a path of bloody, torturous revenge, so really both of them aren't a part of Team Evil anymore. :smalltongue:

[V'icternus]

I just noticed your avy has heterochromia. Or whatever the word is.

Yes, it does.
And Heterochromia is correct.

[Zefir]

Damn I made my char yesterday and then Inkskape crashed and I lost the data... I will make it tomorrow. I would make a respond to Raes post, cause he is still on earth^^.

[Rae Artemi]

Damn I made my char yesterday and then Inkskape crashed and I lost the data... I will make it tomorrow. I would make a respond to Raes post, cause he is still on earth^^.

Earth? Rae has never been to Earth. He has been to Avbaroy, though he is quite obviously in space just after a Yo Momma battle with Q at the moment.

[Zefir]

And the all have three free hit thing is over? ((Excuse my bad knowledge))

[Rae Artemi]

And the all have three free hit thing is over? ((Excuse my bad knowledge))

Now, yes, then, I dunno, it depends on whether or not one of the blue Lantern PCs want to have a go at him in a comic.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Now, yes, then, I dunno, it depends on whether or not one of the blue Lantern PCs want to have a go at him in a comic.

Also, that comic takes place chronologically before the space battle. One could make one taking place in the same time, but I wouldn't unless you're a blue lantern.

Though I was thinking of making a comic where Q tries to sneak in and disguise himself as a blue lantern just to take advantage of it. :smalltongue:

[Darklord Bright]

You should make one where he repeatedly comes in with increasingly worse disguises just to get two more shots.

[Rae Artemi]

You should make one where he repeatedly comes in with increasingly worse disguises just to get two more shots.

Three shots, is what you meant to say.

[Zefir]

Actually I have an idea that may allow me to enter without beeing a blue one and leading Rae through the space battle. The important word is 'may'.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Actually I have an idea that may allow me to enter without beeing a blue one and leading Rae through the space battle. The important word is 'may'.

Lead? Sounds like you would have to be in a position of leadership to do that.

And Rae is kinda the big boss. At least amoung the blue lanterns (every faction has an individual leader, and there is no overall leader for all the corps).

[Zefir]

Damn again my bad english show up or maybe I just use words with to many meanings. I don't mean to be the boss more the situation could make Rae to go to space on his own.

[Mina Kobold]

Damn again my bad english show up or maybe I just use words with to many meanings. I don't mean to be the boss more the situation could make Rae to go to space on his own.

Everybody is in space, every single lantern is attacking the base of the Superheroes.

He is not there on his own, at least three other lanterns are withing poking distance of him and at least two (who I will be using for my comic once I get that far) are in reading-big-cuecards distance :smallsmile:

By the way, anybody remember who killed Steel Guy?

[Zefir]

Steel guy was killed by the captain of the green laterns forgot the name...
If the thing with Raes punishment is over I have to thought other way

[GrlumpTheElder]

Actually, you know what? Forget about them. One of them has been capturned and brainwashed by a gnome and the other is on a path of bloody, torturous revenge, so really both of them aren't a part of Team Evil anymore. :smalltongue:

Oooh, the possibility when I make a new comic for FFF:R :smallbiggrin:

Laptop is back online so I'll be able to start making comics again (not that I made that many in the first place...)

[CrimsonAngel]

Skimmer misspelled Lanterns.

[-skimmer-]

Skimmer misspelled Lanterns.

No I didn't >.< thx, fixed....

[CrimsonAngel]

Lanters? :smalltongue:

EDIT: Clever move, Skimmer.

[Darklord Bright]

By the way, anybody remember who killed Steel Guy?
Zexion's green lantern girl ripped his head off with her powers while he was surrendering, and there was a bit of a buzz about it for a while.

Great! That means I can make a comic involving Yelloveak, Steel Guy and Deadpool-esque textboxes* >:D

MWAHAHAHA!

HA!

*In design and in how serious their content is, they are not going to break any walls... Yet :smalltongue:

[Green-Shirt Q]

*In design and in how serious their content is, they are not going to break any walls... Yet :smalltongue:

I just realized how little we've actually broken the fourth wall in this plot. ABR is usually (read: in FFF) containing nothing resembling a fourth wall, and yet in ABR Corps there hasn't been any wall damage that I can remember.

I made Q lean on the fourth wall a couple of times, but I don't think he's actually outright broken it yet.

Wouldn't it be lifepond or something?

And if he doesn't know that he's a parody i'm gonna sock someonething

[Threeshades]

Wouldn't it be lifepond or something?

Why would it be?

We also have fantasticman, not Inframan and Arachnidude, not Flyguy.
We have the Bulk, not the Shrivelled Remains.

Do you see where I'm getting at?

Does the first half of Deadpool's name have anything to do with his character? Far as i know, his superpower is breaking the fourth wall, causing anger in everyone he talks too, and rapid respiratory upset of the audience.

And Arachnadude has three As =P

[V'icternus]

Dude.

They are not opposites of their counterparts... they are parodies. Meaning they are the same, but played for laughs.
Deadpool = Deathpond because Death is similar to Dead and Pond is similar to pool.
The names are similar in the same way as the characters are similar.
This is the entire concept of the names being the way they are.

And when Threeshades adequately exemplifies this, you somehow take it to mean that we are assuming it has something to do with the character's powers.

So, to recap, names of parody characters = similar to names of actual characters.


V'icternus, clearing up misunderstandings wherever he goes.

I thought you said 'Deadpond' :smallconfused: my bad.

I assumed that the names were kept similar when it had something to do with the character (not their powers specifically) but were still made different to exemplify that it was a parody.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Either way, I had a better idea for "Deathpond".

Anybody else rememeber the scene from Superman/Batman Annual where there was this guy who looked an awful lot like Deathstroke, yet had all the characteristics of Deadpool? And something happened each time before he was able to say his name?

That's what some in the business (by which I mean what some of us who visit TvTropes regularly) call a "Lawyer Friendly Cameo". We really don't need to name this guy, and we could pretend he IS Deadpool (and have the character himself make note of it as traditional Deadpool style, but never outright say the his own true name). It'd be great! Really! :smallbiggrin:

I don't remember it, but I read about it, on that very website you mentioned in your post there. I was just going to have him pretty much flat out acknowledge that he was a blatant parody of Deadpool, among other things, but your idea could work too.

(Looks at recent FFF: Reboot Strips)

One question: Is Rae on Team Good, or Team Evil, as it appears in one recent FFF strip, he attacked someone on good's airship?
Also, my next strip will be up tomorrow

Can he be a lawyer?

Also: Didn't you do that with Spiderman already?

[Green-Shirt Q]

Can he be a lawyer?

Also: Didn't you do that with Spiderman already?

I suppose we kinda did it for all of our heroes. Or did we? >.>

I've already revealed in the second last comic I made that these heroes aren't exactly as heroic as they appear to be. Though the Deadpool copy could probably just be himself, without any of the changes to the personality we're giving to these other characters.

Also, before I forget...


Does the first half of Deadpool's name have anything to do with his character? Far as i know, his superpower is breaking the fourth wall, causing anger in everyone he talks too, and rapid respiratory upset of the audience.

Firstly, Deadpool got his name in the Weapon X program (the same program that gave Wolverine his special skeleton), when all the other test subjects had a betting pool for who would be dead first (though in actuality it was because Deadpool was originally a rip-off of Deathstroke of Teen Titans, and the name was a joke about that).

Secondly, his powers and noteworthy abilities are:
1. Super Healing Factor (heals REALLY quickly due to getting Wolverine's healing factor from Weapon X experiments)
2. Super Insainity (causing him to be completely unpredictable, as well as break the fourth wall and make other hilarious jokes, non-sequiters and pop-cultre refrences. Also makes mind reading or mind control impossible)
3. Completely immortal (due to the results of a love triangle with Death and Thanos)
4. A teleporting device he usually has
5. Great martial arts skills and gun skills

Other notes for those who have never read Deadpool comics: his speech boxes are yellow, as well as his caption boxes (unless they're white with courier font).

[Maxios]

I never even heard of Deadpool before Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. And because of his costume, I thought he could have been one of Spider Man's clones.

Or a whole bunch of other colors, sometimes, each with different personalities. Y'know, cause he's crazy.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Well, apperently Deadpool's costume was the costume they were ORIGINALLY going to give to Spider-man (or so I hear. I think it's just ripping of Deathstroke again with Spider-man thrown in to make him more popular). He could be considered a "darker" version of Spider-man, though. Their pasts and personalities do have some similarities and many have compared them in this way.

Also, you've never heard of Deadpool before then? Strange. He's so present in the current comic industry, a lot of people say he's overexposed.

Than again, if you don't read comics, it's understandable.

I read a bunch of comics, I just never read one with Deadpool in it

Edit: I'm going to begin working on my next FFF: Reboot strip right now, so it may be up tonight. Maxios is going to tell a Team Good character why he attacked the Half-Orc. Does anyone volunteer their character?

Which is even more strange, because he has so many different series.

Deadpool (classic)*,
Cable and Deadpool*,
Deadpool,
Deadpool: A Merc With A Mouth,
Deadpool Team-Up,
Deadpool Corps,
Deadpool MAX,
Deadpool Pulp*,
Deadpool: The Circle Chase*,
Deadpool: Sins of the Past*,
Deadpool: Suicide Kings*
Wade Wilson's War*,
Hulked Out Heroes* (where he is basically the villain)
And tons of other guest apperances in other Marvel comics.

* Miniseries or ended.

He's basically the new Wolverine (in that he's become a sure way to get people to buy the book they're trying to sell just by putting him on the cover.

Seriously. He's got more comics coming out monthly than SPIDER-MAN. :smallamused:

Which is weird, as there is a character named Juggernaut

[EDIT]@^: Stinks? IT ROCKS! Deadpool is awesome! :smallbiggrin:

I loved Cable and Deadpool. :smallbiggrin:

So did I (though I actually haven't read much of it).

Fun fact for those not in the know: It focused more on Cable (which is why his name was first) yet in the upcoming collections they actually changed the name of the comic to "Deadpool & Cable". Because of Deadpool's popularity, obviously.

[Maxios]

Sure Deadpool is awesome, but Spider Man is awesome

He is the single character from marvel that nearly (as in, my great-grandfather may not, since he's older than WW1) all Danes know about.

I assume he is the same among most other countries' non-comic reading population :smallsmile:

But you are right, he is not the top selling character anymore, and hasn't been for longer than Deadpool existed. Frankly, was he ever more popular than the X-men? I'm not sure.

But fear not! He is still hilarious in anything he's in, we are just reluctant to read it because of what Marvel did to him :smallfrown:

But we'll get over it, once the responsible have been sacrificed to Mephisto to undo it :smallwink:

Aww, they both look so sad in the last panel.

Now I have a chance to actually have Deathpond interact with Steel Guy and Yelloveak's boxversation once I get to that comic. Hurrah!

One notable thing, Grlump. You made two comics, one being your character killing Bulk, and they other having your character explain how bulk was going to be killed to Green Lantern Q. I included both in an order that made BOTH canon. :smallwink:

It was live, meaning that you've already missed it.

They said during the stream that they may have it tapped and put up on the site, but it's doubtful.

Which is sad, because I only got to see a small part of it. They were making fun of each other, calling people who donated (with hilarious hijinks involving answering machines and possible wrong numbers), Spoony showed off the pilot episode of his new show Deadliest Character, where he made Mechagodzilla fight the Megazord from Power Rangers (complete with the Angry Videogame Nerd and Linkara fighting about which side would win) and was every bit as epic as it sounds, they did a live Brad Tries trying a soft drink called Bawls, a marshmellow pizza and a penis made of corn, and a Coffee With Bargo where he discussed the sexual subtext of Alice In Wonderland. That is all I got to see.

That is a good question. I believe Mad Mask was making a comic (and said he was going to include Green Shirt Q in it, so I didn't want to make another FI incase it interferes with it) but that was a while ago. I may just end up making an FI comic and forgetting all about it.

Looking back, I'm not sure I really like the portrayal of the Qs in FI. I think I'm going to bring them both back to their original mannerisms and personalities through some kind of half-baked handwave or something.

Oh, and when the Christmas break starts, I should be making comics like there's no tomorrow. It's just that this week is pretty homework-heavy, being the last week before school ends.

I have a little FI project in making and grand plans with the setting, so yes. Right now I'm just using the time when nobody makes comics for it to invent a different way to tell it's story and I'm totally not going to let it die....

From what I know, we'll see MM uploading like 12 comics at once when the time comes:smalltongue:
Speaking of which, wasn't there a comic where GSQ talked to Sultan about transport to Merinas? It was deleted, but I still thought GSQ is going to be there somehow:smallconfused:

It could be just played differently. I'm not really a fan of gory scenes and unnecessary violence, but I like the idea of an avenger with nothing to lose destined to save the world. Perhaps try to imagine how else a character with such a cool title could behave like in this setting....
As for RSQ, except that he's no longer that evil plotting jerk I liked so much from the old FFF archive, I don't see many changes here....

Uh, yeah. He's coming to Merinas, he's just going with the group instead. In Mad Mask's comic (I'm assuming).

I did make a comic with him getting on the plane, but I took that down due to controversy of the technology level in this bizarre, utterly messed up fantasy setting.

Yeah. I have a lot of fun drawing very gory scenes, but looking back it REALLY doesn't fit Green-shirt Q. I'm thinking I might find some way to change him so that he is STILL "an avenger with nothing to lose destined to save the world", but a heck of a lot more light hearted. I'm not sure how I could even possibly manage to take the character down to that after, well, killing to UNA guys in cold blood by smacking them with one another until the streets ran red with their blood, but I'm sure I'll think of something.

As for Redshirt Q, that's EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Again, I'm not sure how I'd make him manipulative again (what he would be plotting about) but again, I'm sure I'll think of something.

He calls down lightning and uses lightning by shouting(in this version of the character) "Alakazam!" I don't think he has laser eyes or super breath like Superman does, though. Oh, and his powers are fueled by magic and a bunch of gods, which comes up more often for his mainstream counterpart than you might think.

Oh, and FYI, his secret identity is actually a 10 year old kid. You might wanna restrain your character from doing anything too violent.

EDIT: Also? Ketham's going to do whatever it takes to disable him if he thinks Spectacle's gonna kill somebody.

Because even though he's a kid, he's been giving the ability to turn into the superhero Captain Marvel by a wizard. So can turn into the adult-sized Captain by saying the magic word, and saying it again to change back into his regular self. Basically he's a kid in a superpowered adult's body. That's why he's so hammy, it's because he is how kids see superheros.

Fair enough if Ketham kills Captain Spectacle. Just remember that he has the maturity, knowledge, and experience of a 10 year old kid. You may, MAY, want to go a little easy on him if you don't want people making the mistake that Ketham is evil.

Ketham prefers disabling to death. (see ripped wings) if it comes down to it, he'll kill him. But it won't come down to it.

Also: How, exactly, is Ketham going to know the guy is a ten year old?

I just realized it was irrelevant since he's a mage himself. And i actually already thought of a way it'd be irrelevant beforehand.

You could do the same thing Superman did to him in JLU.


Marvel was holding him up and shouting Shazam! (Magic word!) to zap Supes when Supes switched them, turning him back to Billy (the kid) and just holding a hand over his mouth so he couldn't turn back.

Do a variant of that and everybody will be happy :D

If they're not, I'll send more hammy superheroes at them! :smalltongue:

[Bradakhan]

As for Redshirt Q, that's EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Again, I'm not sure how I'd make him manipulative again (what he would be plotting about) but again, I'm sure I'll think of something.

Well he did manage to get a casino manager/ALF spy into UNA-owned territory. Sounds pretty manipulative to me (or just simple ignorance :smalltongue:).
I will make the next part of that eventually.


If they're not, I'll send more hammy superheroes at them! :smalltongue:

But how can we get Aquaman into space? :smallwink:

[Green-Shirt Q]

I'm thinking I'm gonna try to find the time to make a comic sometime soon with Captain Spectacle, letting some comments pass. Whether that be today or when Christmas break starts for me highly depends.

Dammit! :smallmad: Now it's gonna look like you gave me the idea... :smallfrown:

The guy solved being chained to a rock while a villain was planning to murder his son and rule his empire by chopping off his own hand and attaching a harpoon to the stump.

I don't think physics dare stand in his way :smalleek:


Dammit! :smallmad: Now it's gonna look like you gave me the idea... :smallfrown:

Teehee. Sorry.

You really had that exact idea already?

Coincidences are fun :D

Ketham was going to hit his nervous system with magic in a way that transformed him back into his non-powered form. At which point Ketham would express surprise that it was a kid and start asking questions about the necrotising of his forces allies.

It would take about four questions before he remembered they were in space and without magical powers the kid would die via the air in his body expanding within a few seconds. At which point he would be plane shifted to the altruist plane for healing.

Might still do that =/

Yes, by shouting Alakazam! and be hit by divine lightning from the gods, or have it hit somebody else in which case it just hurt. As I said, covering his mouth prevents him from transforming

Well in that case
shut up :smallfrown: i just wanna fry someone's nervous system, is that so wrong?

JA:frying his system transforms him BACK and the fact he's in space (and also not breathing) prevents him from doing it again

[-skimmer-]

Uh, yeah. He's coming to Merinas, he's just going with the group instead. In Mad Mask's comic (I'm assuming).


Uhh, don't wait for him....as far as I know, he is currently working on some sort of FI backstory series about Igon minoblendy(cca 3-6 comics, first one here (http://kinogo.com/victor/fi/comics/fi13.png)) and then about Ikaeru Blaine and wanted to post them all at once + he's still suposed to wrap up that revolution thingy (two (http://kinogo.com/victor/fi/comics/fi11.png) comics (http://kinogo.com/victor/fi/comics/fi12.png))

Any future events involving Merinas are pretty much left up to me and anyone else who makes comic for it....oh, and you know what happens when you wait for MM:smalltongue:



I did make a comic with him getting on the plane, but I took that down due to controversy of the technology level in this bizarre, utterly messed up fantasy setting.


It was about how it would take Q days to fly to Merinas by plane, which was something that could be simply handwaved for plot convenience....

Citizen, all territories belong to UNA! The air you're breathing? It belongs to UNA as well! The whole world is UNA! Any citizen thinking otherwise is an ALF-wizard-traitor and should immediatelly report to the nearest peacekeeper office for termination. Have a nice day:smallsmile:
haha, don't laught, it's true

[GrlumpTheElder]

Oh, and FYI, his secret identity is actually a 10 year old kid. You might wanna restrain your character from doing anything too violent.

Wait, so he's sort of like Banana Man?!?!

Awesome! :smallbiggrin:

Looks like I won't be able to make any comics for a while, work is getting in the way. If anyone wants to use Grlump in a comic in any way, feel free.

Geez, I'll need different hosting site....
You're entering new location, please stand by....

I can't see it at all.

If you're looking for a new hosting site, I would recommend Tinypic (http://tinypic.com/?t=postupload), though I have a feeling there's a reason you're using a more complicated hosting site, isn't there?

...Man, this discussion thread has been quiet lately, hasn't it?

For some reason skimmer's and Q's avatars and pictures aren't loading for me anymore. Also the flash thing that skimmer linked to in the main thread isn't loading. :smallconfused:

Ohey now Q's avy is working but mine isn't

now it's only skimmers link. That's what they mean when people say it helps to talk about your problems: They solve themselves.

[Bradakhan]

I'm guessing the reason so many people aren't around is due to the holidays.

You said 'the one with the bloody angel wings'. The wings that, for all we know, no longer exists.

Under his skin. He had to learn to hide them really well when he was younger. Also Magic.
