Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Sometimes swearing's needed. I mean, it's useful for impact and can be very meaningful (see the latest Erfworld page for an example). Also, it's kind of unrealistic to leave out curses.
But yeah, don't just add them anywhere. Use sparingly and appropriately. Unless one of your characters swears a lot.Last edited by T-O-E; 2009-06-23 at 01:12 PM.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Okay. I've reread C2H5OH. I haven't seen any of the swears I was talking about.
I didn't mean little swears like "hell", "crap", "ass", or any other swears that OOTS has put in themselves.
I'm talking biggies, here. F-word. S-Word. N-Word! Those are the kinds of words that put people off reading the comic!
And I mean frequently, too. Erf doesn't count because they've said one of them only once at the end. That won't drive anybody away (particularly since it has ended).Last edited by Green-Shirt Q; 2009-06-23 at 01:15 PM.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
I was going to say Fireworks or w/e, but that's Nameless.
And now I fell I'm officially a member of the community; I can remember people I don't directly interact with.
I have to disagree; people like swearing. If anything, it'll increase readership.
The sad part is, I don't know whether I'm kidding or not.It's been a bit, GitP. If you're reading this, you're either digging through old stuff, or I've posted for the first time in forever.
If you want to stay in touch, reach out to me on twitter (same username).
The best answer is always to ask your DM.
Unless you're the DM, in which case you should talk to your players.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
No, no. BEST way to get people to stop reading: Realistic gory photos of mangled dead bodies that are nauseating even to soldiers and police officers.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
I care from general curiosity.
And sorry for the delays, I've been very busy. No promises, but another comic may show up today.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
This comic seems a bit above par in relation to most of the other comics. I think I'll follow it and see where it goes.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Thanks! In terms of art, plot, what?
And Jallorn: That's pretty much why I said "No Promises".

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Well the art isn't the best but it's not painful to look at, which can't be said about a lot of the fan comics. You've also got the text at a nice readable size that doesn't take up too much of the panels.
It's too early to comment about the plot, but it seems like it could be going somewhere interesting.My Awards!

Thanks!
I like your avatar's shadow... If I learn to, I may some day make my comic have shadows and light levels!

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
I wouldn't if I were you. Shading is a bit of a pain, and takes quite a bit of time. It might work every now and again for a dramatic moment, but not for every comic. Even the Giant doesn't shade his comics.

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Giant doesn't shade his comics because it goes against his style. I want to make that my style. But then again, I don't get my comics done AS IS; why would I wanna add MORE work?
Truth is, when I said EVENTUALLY, I meant When I Retire in 50 years.

If someone comes up with a good idea when talking about what they expect will happen, will you use it?

Re: Monstrous: Because Not All Heroes Are Humans
Well, just ask about the cast or something... Oh well, I'll probably get 2 more REAL comics done before I need filler, so you guys have time.
