Smackwell Comics: (Title Too Long and Stupid to Enter Here)

edited August 2015 in Fan Base Alpha
This is the first of four short stories that are going to appear in a compilation when all four are done. I couldn't post this before but I've gotten permission to do so now, so here it is. For those of you keeping score, Knuckle Down is actually the third part of this compilation. Part 2 is still being inked, and part 4 is still being penciled.

This was my first short story, with a limit of 8 pages (and in my dumbness, decided to squish it down to 7). It was a good exercise, trying to fit a whole story in a third of the pages normally allotted to a comic book story. If anyone finds any of the story hard to follow, please let me know. Any other comments and critiques are welcome as always!

The pictures might be a bit small. If they are, I'll reupload higher-resolution versions later.

    Pretty great.

    Also, the aliens wrote and spoke in English because they bought into the Nazi Propaganda from WW2, remember?

    It makes perfect sense.

    The aliens kind of make me think of the Gadroon.


    Oh and the sploog sound effect on Dung Beetle from the Galactacid gun is kinda gross, and casts the "Makes me kinda sick to my stomach" line after it EXTRA gross. A little too close to "Splooge", IMHO.​​

    That propaganda would have been in German!

    And thanks for naughtifying my comic. :| Now I'll have to change it!

    Thanks everyone for the compliments! :)

    Oh my god, that's hilarious. The new one he did is much better, ah ha ha.

    Hey man, I was only trying to help.

    For all I knew it was intentional, but just in case it wasn't...​​
  • biffsmackwellbiffsmackwell Posts: 4,739 Arc User
    No, definitely not intentional. I intend to publish these as all-ages comics. I wouldn't put anything in here I wouldn't want my son to read.
