About Me
I like Metroid. And stuff.
Oh. And I like making sprite comics.
I know a large number of SJ immediately writes a sprite comic off as "terrible" without even giving the comic a chance, but I say screw those people. They've never considered that sprite comickers may suck at drawing, or lack a scanner, or lack the patience to make a quality drawn comic. For me? I can draw well, but I can't draw the same character model twice for a different pose, like, for crap. So technically, I lack the patience, and to an extent, the skill.
LARG.
As for drawn comics, usually I will not like them unless they are blatantly obvious comedies. In fact, the same goes for sprite comics. I think the comic medium only works with comedy, adventure, mystery, and occasionally, thrillers. Everything else (action, romance, etc.) I find to be rather boring in the comic universe. My favorite genre is comedy, however, and that goes for any medium.

Comment on U.R.'s History, Part 2 (ARK and SNM) of Let's see how far we've come

While the Crulic Gargoyle background was nice, it stirred some difficulty in maintaining
non-noir colors. So I went to a simple black background.
And so, this explains the beginning of my sprite comicking career. I know the excerpts look pretty bad, but as you might expect, I do improve with later comics.
I expect to have Part 5 done by tomorrow, or Wednesday at the very latest.

Certainly. I might have my Phantoon 8-bit custom as the centerpiece for Part 5.
Oh, and also, my 8-bit custom Draygon appears in Part 2 (almost finished), found in an excerpt of ARK.
Otherwise, I did not really do quite that much with Metroid sprites that someone would call "original"...

This just covers my general spriting history. Part 2 will cover ARK and Saturday Night
Mudkipz. Part 3 will cover Buttshot. Part 4 will cover Pogeymanz, then Part 5 will be the
conclusion.
Also, the first sprite wasn't supposed to turn out black and white. Somehow, the Crulic Gargoyle picture in the back turns everything else into a noir color. I'd better stick to a simple black background, maybe.

Comment on Buttshot (Re-Review) - Zanoh of Let's review, shall we?
Ultimate Ridley, 22 Nov 2009 02:30 pm
Aha, told you I knew it sucked!
Still, at least it did better than ARK. I got good news and bad news.
Good news is that Pogeymanz is most likely a lot better than my first two comic efforts combined.
Bad news is, Buttshot will always still be updated, at least for as long as my cousin is living with me. The comic was his idea, he just sucked at comicking himself (see: The Coconut Chronicles, look it up). See, he doesn't want to see his favorite portrayal of his crazy side (Coconut) to die in the name of a Pokemon sprite comic (he's a stereotypical Pokemon hater). So, he keeps commanding me to make more "Coconut" comics (Yeah, he doesn't even memorize the title I gave to the fucking comic). It's not that he has power over me; he is just an excellent persuader, carrying his persuasion methods out by being a persistent annoyance. What a douche.
But thanks for the review. I was shocked about ARK's score at first (really, I was, but I got over it), but I expected a score like this for Buttshot. So, in no way am I butthurt (not that I'd expect you to think I was).
I want Coconut to die as fucking much as you probably do, trust me.

Comment on 40 of ANOTHER GODDAMNED SONIC COMIC FUCK!

It started sucking as of the 15th issue, but it's getting its ahsumness back slowly
now.
Fireballs is the red Sonic recolor that has no other pose than the one portrayed right here. He was likely made to be symbolism for typical bland Sonic recolors in the hands of children who don't understand how to use MS Paint well enough to use more than one pose for a character.
Haha, Evil Agram, there's symbolism in this comic! If that doesn't help define satire, I have no idea what does.

Yeah, I like how he accuses [Nameless] of being gender-confused, yet he has the following
lines:
"Do you honestly believe that this man is a man?"
"He's obviously a woman!"
"I didn't scare off the manlady, YOU did!"
:D

Well obviously you don't like the sense of humor this comic has, and that's fine. But
seeing as you're a part of an extreme minority in that regard, I'd like to inform you that
coming in here simply to say that the comic sucks balls when clearly everyone else has
plausible reasons to disagree, people WILL begin to suspect that you're a troll. You're
free to express your opinion let alone having one to begin with, I'm just informing you of
the inevitable.

Yes it does. It's a fucking parody sprite comic. Look at the description. It says Effort +
Parody Sprite Comic = Fail.
Last time this comic tried effort, it failed. It became another goshdarned Sonic comic, fuck. Not a parody of other Sonic sprite comics, fuck.
But now SexyBrianPuppet sees the light again, and no effort is returning to the comic, resulting in one of the best comics I've looked at in a looong time.

Yeah, this comic was what I once called my downfall in comic-making... but looking back, I find it much funnier than ARK. If you don't mind excessive swearing and gore, I recommend you check the comic out.
Up next: the history of Pogeymanz.
