Bond Brothers

Auron · 04-04-2005, 07:11 PM

Anyone remember my first comic? How it was so difficult because of bmp. images? Well, my computer is finally working with me, so now, I can continue. Here is episode 2-9, for those who couldn't few before.

Let me know how it is.

Tips of advice:

1) Avoid using Paint effects. They look really poor.

2) Try using better colors for text.

And I already told you about the Image formating types, so no one go nagging about it.

*twitches from the bad JPG image*

ludwigvan · 04-04-2005, 08:42 PM

the terrible jpg compression makes it look like the comic was on paper. Paper that got left in the water.

Glyph Phoenix · 04-05-2005, 06:54 AM

Well, at least it's better than .bmp. I'd rather read that crappy water paper compression than a .bmp. And I have dial-up, too...

Some parts of this comic are good, some parts of this comic really, really suck. Wario's 'success' was funny. Luigi's incredibly lame joke wasn't. An incredibly lame cliche that sucked the first time it was used, child's tv as torture, is not funny. The shyguy changing color was.

If you ever chose to continue it, it might not be bad. But it might anyway. It depends on whether or not you have improved.

And why did it take you several months to change a file from one format to another? I have a buggy, spywared, Windows 98 that I use to get online and it takes me less than a minute to change format.

Auron · 04-05-2005, 08:56 PM

Well, I hope you could at least read the old ones, because I'm not redoing them. The new ones are png. files so they should be fine, and they're longer, too. It's been 8 monthes since my last comic, so if this one is bad, oh well.

Alink - VCR Man. VCR. · 04-06-2005, 08:19 AM

;P I like these comics. They're not to hard on the eye, and they're somewhat funny. Good job, so far.

(Ah, I remember when the comic first came out ...)

Glyph Phoenix · 04-06-2005, 01:09 PM

This comic isn't quite as funny as some previous ones, but it isn't half as stupid. Way to go.

But you need text bubbles or something... Especially with the recolors, it's hard to figure out who's talking.

Your graphics aren't too good, but if you tone up the funny you might make this comic worthwhile.

thunt · 04-06-2005, 02:16 PM

Just give him some slack. What do you expect, 8-bit Theater?
I like this comic.

Glyph Phoenix · 04-06-2005, 03:06 PM

No, I just expect not crap. And while this is not crap, it's annoyingly near the border of craptown.

Auron · 04-07-2005, 02:54 PM

Alright Glyph, this is my FIRST comic series, so expect some crapness. Secondly, not everyone is blessed with adobe photoshop, so don't expect everything to be eye candy. Thirdly, what you think is s*** jokes may be funny to other people, so keep your rude crap to yourself.

Oh, and Glyph, Mario is in the blue, and Luigi is in the brown. But I'll change it just so you'll stop complaining, OK?

Episode #11

thunt · 04-07-2005, 05:01 PM

PLease don't start another arguement here...

Auron · 04-07-2005, 05:24 PM

I've said all I wanted/needed to say, so now I'm just going on topic.

Auron · 04-09-2005, 07:01 PM

Wow. Are my comics that bad that no one reponds anymore? I didn't think they were that bad. Well, anyway, here's #12.

If anyone isn't familiar with the James Bond series (more specifically, Goldfinger, I think), the name Evenwork is a spoof of of a bad guy who's name is Oddjob. Get it? Oddjob, Evenwork...

Or not.

thunt · 04-09-2005, 09:09 PM

No, we just don't have the time to post.

Glyph Phoenix · 04-09-2005, 10:46 PM

The even letters joke was funny, and I'm glad to see that you got the colors fixed. And Evenwork is a pretty funny character overall.

Pretty much everything else was pure crap.

Really, just terrible graphics, and Evenwork was really the only character in the latest ones that had any funny lines.

And the only way you can get me to stop complaining is when you fix everything. And there's a lot of crap to fix. Once you fix the big things, smaller things will appear. And then I'll complain about those.

Just think of me as the guy who tells you not to walk into a wall, yet you do anyway. The guy who then laughs at you.

Auron · 04-10-2005, 02:11 PM

Episode #13.

Glyph Phoenix · 04-10-2005, 02:41 PM

The "small barrel, heavy shot" joke is overused and lame. This one wasn't funny and it looks just as crappy as the others. But your sky is still almost the same damn color as Evenwork, your ground is still crap, and Evenwork's gun isn't of a different palette than the sky.

I still like Evenwork, though. There are a lot of characters with stupid accents in the comic world, but Evenwork's something I've never seen before. Fun to read.

But that's it. If you took out Evenwork and replaced him with a dumber character, your comic would completely suck right now.
