Tomb Busters 1: They didn't meet in an inn
http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Tomb_Busters/5546858/
New comic I just got introduced to. First chapter is up, largely as a big "at once" push at the beginning of the month.
We have a girl with "locate object" and telekinesis, along with some nasty motorcycle riding skills, on a planet that looks only slightly more lawful than New Hong Kong. But apparently, being an 11 year old without parents is illegal.
And we find the rest of the cast/crew: a mechanic, a pilot, and some muscle.
... Did I say they were humans? No, I didn't :-).Not "fire at". I never used the word "at"

Re: Tomb Busters 1: They didn't meet in an inn
Powered through the content to date. It's... interesting, but absolutely no plot progression other than 'Vicky joins the team' happened. It *looked* like plot was about to happen, and then the comic went on hiatus until January-ish.
The early art shift did the comic no favors. It's passable art, and I mean no real offense because I can barely draw stick figures, but the first artist was better.

Re: Tomb Busters 1: They didn't meet in an inn
I agree; it definitely feels like it's almost all introduction so far.
Still, it's moving a little faster than Erfworld.Not "fire at". I never used the word "at"

Re: Tomb Busters 1: They didn't meet in an inn
Wow, that is a fun comic. Though, for the child-suitable art style and the according shallow plot, it is a bit brutal at several points, and several characters have died. So I don't get who the audience is supposed to be.
The point where I really felt the need to complain about the plot, was when Vicky refused to join the team, adamantly so. Then joined the Team in the last second for no truly compelling reason other than Gordon teasing her about her life.participate in fan translations of OotS to your native language:

Re: Tomb Busters 1: They didn't meet in an inn
The whole thing seems very focused on showcasing the author's artistic skills, and the plot, characterizations, and basic motivations seem mostly nonexistent. Nice artwork though.
Edit: also- the shoalin team (in a flying Forbidden City) from ch.3, p.7 -- I'm sure they thought that was a thrilling homage, but to me it seemed pretty tone deaf.Last edited by Willie the Duck; 2018-11-23 at 06:41 PM.

Well anyway the thing seems to be dead. Shame. It was fun in a 'saturday morning cartoon' kind of way.Last edited by smuchmuch; 2018-11-24 at 05:10 AM.
