You Are the Comic

Glyph Phoenix · 07-16-2007, 12:51 AM

Why did I make this

Better yet, why am I posting it here

Argh

Dylan · 07-16-2007, 06:30 AM

Holy crap, Glyph is back.

Seriously man, good to see you again.

-Dylan

Rainbow Dash · 07-16-2007, 02:46 PM

yaaa-

Uhm, you deserve better than "yaaaaay".

I'll get back to you when I think of something.

**X-3** · 07-16-2007, 03:23 PM

Hey, it's Glyph. Knowing your comic skill, this'll probaby turn out great. I'll be sure to check back often.

SephirothKirby · 07-16-2007, 05:16 PM

Oh snap, everyone's always talked about you, and I've always wanted to meet you.

Rainbow Dash · 07-16-2007, 05:17 PM

*kicks SK out of the topic*

No you haven't. Stop lying. Liar.

Glyph Phoenix · 07-17-2007, 12:22 AM

By reuploading the first comic with newly introduced spelling errors the second will look good by comparison

Any indication that the errors were always there is a side effect of your feeble brain attempting to comprehend the non-euclidean curvature of spacetime introduced by my new medium and failing

I can honestly say the art will not remain exactly this quantity of bad--interpreting this statement optimistically or pessimistically I leave as an exercise for the reader

**Crazyswordsman** · 07-17-2007, 09:02 AM

Well look who showed up.

It has it's own beauty in its own way. -CSM

Dylan · 07-17-2007, 09:23 AM

I'm actually quite fond of the style. It's very gritty, sort of reflective of the moods of the characters.

Okay, I'm done being artsy for right now. Way to be, old chum.

-Dylan

TheEvilDM · 07-17-2007, 10:00 AM

This amuses me. Nice to meet you old person that came back to VGF

Glyph Phoenix · 07-17-2007, 10:39 PM

Dylan's use of language leads me to believe he is Batman's secret identity, which means Hugo Strange totally ripped me off

I demand to know, what, if anything, is going on in this place at this time

I am proud to say this series of panels has the most inconsistant art yet

Dylan · 07-17-2007, 11:25 PM

Wouldn't two monocles be an oxymoron? I mean, it would contradict the whole "mono-" thing, right?

-Dylan

"Brilliant!" - The New York Times
"Phenomenal!" - Roger Ebert
"Wonderful!" - Richard Roeper
"Magnificent!" - Me
"This may possibly be the greatest comic ever!" - Somebody Clearly Exaggerating

Yeah, some pretty awesome stuff here, Glyph.

The Willful Wanderer · 07-18-2007, 02:23 AM

Pretty good. More of a quiet kind of semi-surreal funny.

Glyph Phoenix · 07-18-2007, 04:43 AM

Have you ever had an idea where you had an idea you thought was so good you wanted to make it and show it immediately

This is a comic I was so proud of I wanted to make it in its entirety and present it on this day

I am far too tired to tell if I did any of it right or if the idea was worth it in the first place

Glyph Phoenix · 07-18-2007, 04:45 AM

Glyph Phoenix · 07-18-2007, 04:45 AM

In the early formative stages of this idea, I believed it to be so good and so big I could never top it and should just post it and quit. Then, as time went on and I realized that my personal favorite, the "poof" bit might be seen as pathetically trite rather than hilariously trite, so I even added more to it. I'm not sure if that was a good idea. Should I have just stopped it at "It was all a dream!"

Dylan · 07-18-2007, 06:37 AM

The robotic clone part was priceless. Great job, man.

-Dylan

**X-3** · 07-18-2007, 09:52 AM

Monocules are always funny, as are robotic clones. Good job so far, Glyph.

That was definitely the high point, but after that, it didn't seem to drag on or anything. I think you should continue.
