Title: Genesis - The Cartoon
Post by: Phemar on Sun 04/04/2004 13:02:16

Heh, I finally finished it. Genesis - The Cartoon:

Check it here: http://www.zorproductions.eds.saix.net/genesis.html

Please note that Genesis is an offensive cartoon to some people. Do not read this if you're in the mood to be offended.

Please note again: Genesis does feature bad drawing, I have improved as I drew this a while ago.

Tell me what you think!

Heh, I realised that, and then thought to myself, "Hey! That's pretty funny!" So I left it.

Glad you guys like it.

Haha, didn't noticed it some time earlier.

I on;y read the first page and I must say it's quite "original" (I'll save the rest for reading later).

The only thing that bothered me was that the texts were a bit hard to read (probably bacause of the scanning, I think), maybe you can refine them or type them with your graphic app.

/me likes the comic.

Advise... never write in the comics that have to be scanned if you don't have nice "comic" writing... you can add the text in any painting program... :)

Haha, that was funny- good work! I especially liked the first two pages.
What amuses me is, that i'm just drawing similar thing. It's also called Genesis and it's parody on Bible- mixing it with Darwin's theory (of course, since the comic is for kids, the writer didn't go all the way with offensive humor). Really funny coincidence :)

Here's part of one of the tables (hope you don't mind me posting this in your thread- if you do, i'll remove it :))

Igor never stops from amazing me --> us. ;D

Spoiler
And finally I know a bit what the comic strip you last posted was about now.
[close]

Hopefully we will have a chance on reading the whole set of comics with complete dialog texts later.

I like your humour, and by that I mean it's ok to like Monty Python but don't copy word for word from them. Take the inspiration from them but let your own style shine through.

The comedy that I recognized as your own was much funnier than reciting the holy handgrenade part from Holy Grail.

The whole Adam and Steve thing was funny [not to be rude but did you come up with that yourself? If so I enjoyed it a lot]

also, may i suggest having actual thumbnails for the comics and not just resized in browser comic pages?

otherwise keep up the good work and i look forward to more from you

Um yeah, about that, you see I had seen the Holy Grail ages ago when I was small, and somehow things like that crept into my subconciuos, ao when I drew that last year, I had these ideas in my head which weren't exactly mine, but Monty Pythons, except I didn't know that. Then recently I got the holy grail on DVD, and I was like "WTF?d00d?" and I realised what I had done was copyrighted material, and I said "Damn!"

QuoteThe whole Adam and Steve thing was funny [not to be rude but did you come up with that yourself? If so I enjoyed it a lot]

Yeah that part I came up with myself. Thanks.

I like the comic!

I'm a christian, [so insert random comments about how various bits were oh-so-slightly offensive blah blah blah], but on the whole, I thought it was very well done.

Your humour is similar to mine... 'bout a year ago I wrote a whole series about a pickle who was granted super-powers. Surprisingly, his name was Super Pickle.

I loved the bit about the spinach and the 10 commandments...

"well...not really"... haha :D
