Wario is a lame character and I hope sometime down the line he gets offed or something and I don't have to read his stupid dialogue. T's real identity is a lame recolor. You need to add some gradients to the background. You used the wrong "you're".

If I didn't enjoy watching others fail so much, I would have stopped reading a long time ago.

You're a sick person. Getting your enjoyment off of giving your rude a** comments to people.

At least others appreciate this comic.

Hey, your comics have lots and lots and lots of flaws. So much that it's kind of annoying. But it's fun to laugh at the flaws, and that's why I stick around.

And others are enjoying this comic? Alink's the only one who said so, the rest really just pointed out how bad your compression used to be.

Now, onto the latest comic...

Not bad, this one. The Game Over thing was a nice little anticlimax. Evenwork's still cool. The inventor sucks, though. No funny gimmick, quirk, or anything that would make him interesting. Says nothing interesting. Does nothing interesting. Sucky character overall.

The gladiator bit isn't too bad, keep adding that every so often and you might have a nice little running gag.

Shortly after Evenwork shows up, it gets rather stupid rather fast. Stupid conversations between the inventor and Luigi. Suckage. Don't do that.

I like this comic.
Does this sound like only Alink to you Glyph?

Alright, then, Alink and Tigt. I didn't notice his latter comment, I guess I was just focused on the part where he implies that the comic is inferior to 8-bit theater. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, what I meant was this is the place where you post bad comics, so they get better, and maybe the person can start up a mildly popular site. And, sure, most stuff is crap, but saying so right out there just puts people off it. Berar with them for a while, but if nothing gets any better a couple of series later(like Joe), then you can give them the truth.
My two cents.

Oh, you're so totally right. The next time I see a crummy comic, I should just lie until we get a chance to see whether or not it gets better.

Or, y'know, I could keep going with the whole honesty thing. But no one likes that. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I just meant that you don't have to say their comic is crap 3 times in each post. Once is enough. Maybe you just have higher standards, but just friggin' keep in mind it's their first comic.
I'm going to stop before this turns into another arguement.

I though we setteled that Glyph is a power hungry critic that will stop at nothing to put people down and call them morons for making comics that are half decent.

Oh yes, that's me. I'm just a "power hungry critic", even though the only power you need to say things like that is freedom of speech, which we all have online. Totally awesome logic usage there, Joe.

And yeah, I'll "stop at nothing" to put people down. Or, y'know, stop the moment I get bored. But those two are really close, Joe. Maybe next time.

This comic looks terrible, is terribly unfunny most of the time, and uses terrible colors. What definition of "decent" are you using, Joe? Because I'd say this comic is 1/4 decent at best. Maybe 3/8 decent, but you'd really be pushing it.

I'm siding with Glyph. I really find the visuals sub-par. Well, at least on that part.I don't agree with some of his opinions on jokes, but not everyone has the same sense of humor.
Sorry for being an ass.

Ignore Glyph. His comic fame went to his head, and he's gone from a respected member of the public to a jerk who thinks he's better than evryone, even Jay's comix and the best Final Fantasy comic ever, 8-bit Theater.

The comic is good. It gets kinda bland for a moment, but you're pretty good at re-spicing it up.

and a note to Glyph: WARIO IS NOT LAME, YOU IDIOTIC LITTLE... I won't go that far. Stop thinking everyone's comix are lame because they don't emulate your specific comic preferances.

Hey Galefore. NO.
Glyph's simply saying the TRUTH.

Now, since I've got 'em back, let's rate:

Comon guys, give this guy a little slack. Anyone who makes sprite comics knows that things start out horrible at first so just bear with him. If your going to insult him, at least do it contructively instead of some crap like "This comic looks terrible, is terribly unfunny most of the time, and uses terrible colors." Let him live in learn what it takes to be a comic master. I would post the old comic I have, but im not going to....

I don't know where you got that idea, Galefore. 8-bit theatre is better than anything I've ever made. At least, the later ones. The first few weren't too good. And it's quite easy to be the best FF comic out there when you have no good competition.

Now, Jay's a speical case. His comics usually look quite bad and often have poor grammar, few updates, and lots of nasty things like that. But they are often the funniest damn things I have ever read. Funnier than mine.

And since when was I a respected member of the public? I'm at a freakin' video game forum. This is where those not respected by the public go to talk about video games.

A comic isn't lame because it doesn't fit my preferences. It's lame because of all the lame elements that contribute to its lameness. Such as bad jokes, terrible graphics, and annoying characters such as Wario. I don't have anything against canon Wario, but Auron's Wario has a crappy personality. There are only so many dumb characters you should have in a comic... with this exception...

8-bit theatre and NC both have lots of stupid characters, but they're all stupid in their own way. 8-bit theatre is a great example; Just look at your four main characters, Red Mage, Fighter, Black Mage, and Thief. All four are on totally different levels of stupid. And the jokes were good.

Auron's comic has none of these. I like Evenwork, I like the game over joke, and I liked the original costume joke. Mario Bros. + Afro = hilarity.

I neglected to mention that this is the best currently running comic in this forum. That isn't to say it doesn't suck, but it's still the best of the worse.
