Im making a webcomic, but I need some help. The webcomic is mainly focused around space marines, and the spoofing the games they come from (Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem, Starcraft, etc) anyways, the problem is, I suck at drawing, and I don't think the internet needs another sprite comic. Can you think of any alternatives? (I don't have photoshop, or anything mind you. Only old fashioned paint)

Another thing, I was thinking of a comic, but i can't come up with a good punchline. The dialog goes a little like this:

Panel One [Two marines are standing next to a large door with a lockin the middle of it, with chains coming from all for corners (like in Zelda: Ocarina of Time)]

Marine 1: Damn, the door is locked

Panel Two

Marine 2: It's Okay! I know where to get a key! All we gotta do is go through a zombie horde, kill a few caco-demons, cross numerous lakes of lava, defeat the Spider-Mastermind, find all the level portals...
Marine 1: [Fires a large weapon, like a rocket launcher at the door]

Panel Three [Light emits from the explosion]
SFX: BOOM!

Panel Four
Marine 2: [Gives marine 1 this look :<_<: ]

And I can't think of anything for Marine 2 to say for the punchline! I was thinking of something like "You can't let me have any fun, can't you?" but I'm sure theres something better I could put in. Also, if you wanna change what Marine 2 lists, that works too :P

ALL PRAISE YOUR SUPREME LORD CORBO

Well, you might actually want to consider writing funny comics first...

After that, it's always fun to look at pixelly graphics like if they were made with MS Paint.



fuck you all

Instead of having Marine 2 say something, Marine 1 should say something like, "What? Oh, I'm sorry; all I heard was 'Explosions, explosions, explosions.'"

Those are sprites, and I'm kinda afraid people will say "Oh no, not another megaman comic"

I thought that my comic was kinda funny. I mean not hilarious, but like worth a mental laugh. Of coarse, a punchline would help :P

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
