My 24 Hour Comic Challenge Comic!

Kinoko · Wed 24/10/2007 10:16:10

This year, Patrick and myself did the 24 Hour Comic Challenge.

Did anyone else do it? Where's your comic?

It hardly matters anyway because this is mine!

Please comment here or on my LJ here to make me feel like a movie star: http://kinokofry.livejournal.com

The cover was done outside of the 24 Hours but since it's the 25th page, it's all good.

Patrick Alexander's comic, "Mr Fuzzywhee" can be thoroughly enjoyed here: http://community.livejournal.com/chickennation/24316.html

That was an extremely brilliant comic Kinoko! Well done!

I didn't know of such competition. It would have been fun to enter.

Nice drawings! by any chance inspired by a 'shroom trip? hahaha.

It's fairly hard to read due to using pencils rather than pen, low-contrast scanning and laziness on my part to clean it up.

It's been my third time so far. This is the second one, done last year. We do a yearly one in the summer, me and a buddy of mine.

As zor said. This weren't possibly inspired by actual shrooms, was it?

Excellent comic anyways!

The swearing and violence that started was really disturbing. I mean really. I'd rather read a clean version of this. Well drawn though.

Kinoko · Wed 24/10/2007 14:51:30

Wow, Voh... your mum really made you "Good Riddance" cakes? SHE IS BEYOND AWESOME!

That was really cute ^_^ I enjoyed that insight into your life! Usually I get really bored reading comics about peoples' life experience but that was pretty well told because you kept it very unique and honest. Also, it got very meta at the end, the last page was nicely done!

voh · Wed 24/10/2007 15:17:26

You know how it goes - near the end all you want to do is finish the damn thing

Even if there was a story - even merely the semblance of - who cares

Looking very good! I tried this year but I can never bring myself to work on a comic for that long. So I just drew a buffer of half a dozen strips for my webcomic.

Eggie · Wed 24/10/2007 19:23:37

Yeah, I made one. I'm E-mailing it to anyone who asks for a copy. It's like a secret society!

LimpingFish · Wed 24/10/2007 21:04:34

Excellent stuff, Kinoko and Voh. \o/

In Kinoko's strip?

You find mushroom-ocide and the word "fuck" disturbing? $:-\$

Rant

When people say something like "clean version", it really bugs me. There are no versions. There is only what there is. If I write a story with violence/sex/whatever, and somebody comments "Yeah, but I'd prefer to read a version without the violence/sex/whatever.", I explain "Then it wouldn't be the story I wanted to write. It would be the story you wanted to read. I am not here to give you what you want."

/Rant

You like. You don't like. Fine. But you don't edit.

Frankly, I'd like a dirtier version.

Awesome work Kinoko.

Kinoko · Thu 25/10/2007 04:46:17

Why, thankyou everyone! I'm such a comments-whore so even someone saying they didn't like the swearing is delicious passion-fruit-flavoured candy for me.

I have to say that I thoroughly agree with LimpingFish about "versions" and so I'm glad he said it and put it so nicely.

Yes, it is what it is and that's that.

I'm very understanding of people being disturbed by the "violence". I found the stabbing a little disturbing myself but that was my 22nd or so hour of pain and exhaustion, and nothing in the world could have delighted me more than the idea of violently killing off that character.

Honestly, I was cackling like a crazy cat lady to myself. "I'll never have to draw you again! HAHAHA!"

The whole experience has really made me want to draw comics again and so I think I will. If anyone wants to make me feel extra popular and special by posting on my LiveJournal, please do so here - at my LiveJournal!

EDIT: Oh! Also, please don't let yourself continue another day of your [whatever kind of life you lead] lives without reading Patrick Alexander's comic.

I so thought of doing this, unfortunately all my friends turned down the coming. Besides I had tons of school stuff to do.

Maybe next year I'll participate.

Good stuff, thanks Kinoko!
Mr Alexander's was better but you knew that

No, I didn't

Now I'm crying, Steve. The tears taste like sour pie.
