The first comic contest had much more interest than the other ones. Is it that you guys can't choose good themes or are people just too lazy? :P

Also I've been thinking that maybe we should shorten the deadline. 15 days seems too long time and people get bored in waiting for the next contest. From the next contest deadline should be 7 days. Would this be okay with everyone?

Be advised, disgusting.

Nice comic, Inkoddi. Haddas, haven't you posted that somewhere before?


Okay, my first Flash comic ever:

Plot: Huh...? Oh.. it's pretty simple. That guy in blue shirt was bumming around the crypt and...

Huh.. I wanted a more serious work, but I haven't any good ideas and -simply- got stuck. Anyway, hope you like it! ;)

Skurwy, I thought your comic was more of a fun thing than an horror. :P But It's really great, either way.

I just love Inkoddi's comic! ;D I bet it's really hard for Eggie to choose the winner from these great works.

It's not horror in the werewolf&vampires -style, but somehow I think it doesn't matter.

I'm sure he just borrowed it.

[EDIT] I should point out that only the last panel is from III Spy. I do not take responsibility for the rest of the strip.

Sorry, Brat, you've been busted. The Judge sends you directly to jail - do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars.

Ahoy. Here's my entry into the contest: Enjoy.

For a two-hour throwaway piece, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. He was supposed to be sitting on the edge of the bed in the last panel, but I messed up in the inking process, so he ends up not looking like so much of a necrophiliac... Oh well. Hope y'all like it.

Teh New Cook - Page 1

Are 3 or 4 paged comics are allowed for the contest? I'm thinking of drawing the other pages before the deadline.

It seems that only you played for keeps. The theme is truly abhorrent and you should win this time! It's great!

Yes, the last panel is quite illegible, but I think everyone will catch the sense.

Good luck for the rest of you

You're not out of the competition. You're outside THE LAW maybe but even it you didn't draw it, it is art and it is in sequence and it's in a sequence because you put it there. So you're still in...

Post by: Ubel on Sat 11/06/2005 10:53:09
Actually the original rules (wich I invented) say that "you are not allowed to copy and paste ready pictures". That means you have to draw everything yourself. But it will be forgiven this time because Eggie didn't copy the rules in the first post. Here are all the rules that should have been pasted in the first post:

The blood of bugs is transparent! It gets the color of what they eat... So I doubt the blood would be red like that even if it ate other humans.

Nevermind though, I'm just trying to act like the smart guy who finds scientific mistakes. But good entry! :=

Actually...

I read this black-and-white comic ("you can't just sleep forever") but I still don;t understand what exactly is drawn on the last panel.
I mean, what is the guy doing? It seems hes taking off his clothes (to wear pajamas).

He is. But - and I hope I didn't get it right - the woman is dead.

That was awesome!Funniest entry so far.

Aaaanyway. I think it's time to announce that the winner is...SpacePirateCain for an entry which excelled in pretty much every aspect of the comic-making type...thing.
So...yeah...Outstanding achievement in the field of exellance kind of thing...

Post by: SpacePirateCaine on Thu 16/06/2005 06:56:35
Wow, thanks a lot! I'm glad the comic was liked - I realize the last panel was a little hard to understand, but JudgeDeadd nailed it with the 'getting undressed for bed' thing, and Rui was right on the nose with 'honey' being very dead. I was going for abhorrent, and it would seem as though that was achieved. Thanks, everyone, for reading the comic - I'll start the next contest right away.
