Actually, I'd say you're starting to become pretty well known about these parts, man. While your Halo short annoyed me, as did aspects of your Animation Invasion, I a have honestly been impressed by some of your work, including Valentine '29, which was a pretty unique and quality collab for the most part. You've also proven yourself quite the capable animator.
But the humility is very appreciated, and earns you respect.

The project sounds very interesting and, while I don't have the time (or any ideas) for a part, I look forward to following it and seeing where it goes.

well thanks for the support. What exactly annoyed you about the Halo short? and what exactly do you mean "the humility is very appreciated"? just curiouse. But it's too bad you don't have time, your stuff is really interesting to me. Maybe next time i guess. :/

Wow how did you get your own comic book publishing place?

and like the other guy said you are actully becoming quite well known especily with that halo thing coming (ahaha i bet ur exahusted from that and gl with that)

i wont be joining btw but id like to see how this comes about :)

With some money saving, a lawyer, and paperwork.

this looks really interesting, save a spot for me and for "Zaghawa"

ok :P

The "humility is really appreciated" was me saying how refreshing it was to see an animator around here who didn't think he was king of the world because he was getting popular (even I have been guilty of that).

The Halo thing... hmmm... I like parodies, but I don't really appreciate ones that go for all the obvious punches. That's kind of what it seemed with your Halo one. It was already short, but combined with the easy jokes (everyone, really, has thought of "What if a marine survived?" or "Wish he would close the door on that guy!").
It's nothing against you, I just appreciate parodies with deeper humor.

As for the Animation Invasion, I wrote a review of what I thought. I regret that now though, as that was way too harsh.
Still kinda embarrassing that I got that upset over something so trivial. I think a lot of it had to do with your author comments and with people's reaction. Either way, kind of ridiculous to rant like that about it.
That was about a year ago though, and I was pretty stupid back then.
My apologies.

haha no apologies necessary don't be silly. but i see your point. as for the halo thing, to let readers know, i have showed you my progress on halo and the BETA was showing just some average joking, the rest of the movie doesn't contain such obviouse stuff. I figured to save the best for the actual movie.

anyways, thanks for the comments squeak.

I've liked all your stuff so far, and I can't wait for "It's a Halo Thing"... and every now and then I re-visit Pico's Blam Jam, and seriously, you have the best made up Pico voice EVER. Seriously. EVER.

Dude! Hurry up with "Its a Halo Thing"! Us halo addicts need our fix! Halo is our cocaine and parodies are our crack to the cocaine!

I'll be joining. This sounds so cool.
I'm pming you the info now.

very interesting, but i still dont understand how it will be put togheter, you mean, every artist will do whatever they want and no matter what the others will do??, since its a comic book, i thought it needed all the artist to draw the same sequence/story/plot/whatever, dunno if im clear enough with that....

i dunno if i will be able to enter (maybe i want, but probably i cant)... just for curiosity , go check my userpage...something like that could work or is it what youre looking for??

I have a good idea for one it's about newgrounds you could have a make belive charcter walking in the city of newgrounds sometimes visiting COCK HQ or the swain.com meeting popular ng characters and such and he will confront problems when he tries to break in the mature section casue he accidentaly set his age below legal porn level( I dunno if there is one for ng) or KK is taking revenge on all NGr's ecpecially tom fulp for kill all those kk flashes, orthis imaginary char could fight bizzaro tom or waldeolf hitler, and maybe menition some flashes I will email you a pitch if you want it will take some time to finish the panels though and im an ok drawer i can do good VP's and I can draw hands very good!~ Ill PM u my email if u like the idea

NOt cock hq clock sorry typo home position is too fast

I understand that this will be an actual comic book, but will you submit a digital version to NG as well?

that's sort of an idea, maybe not the complete thing but some previews, and since its usually annoying to just see previews on newgrounds. They will probably be previewed on my website and such. again, they will be sold around few areas in the USA but mainly online. the whole idea is to start off the comic book business and make an NG artist frendly project. I want to avoid web comic as much as possible because the whole idea is the tangeble material comic book presentation that makes this project special.

Cool. I'd love to get something in there. Should we show you some drawings before hand (you know, just to show that we don't suck), or just get working on the strip?

ha,thats a great idea.will it be an ACTUALL comic,or just a web comic?

actual comic

Some questions:

1: Have you ever published anything else before? What are your credentials?
2: Are you wanting a particular format for the files?
3: Any content restrictions? (nudity, language, etc.)
4: "a comic or a strip or any resemblance of a panel-to-panel short story telling is extremely encouraged" - just to get this straight, are you looking for 28 independant short works, or for us to work together on one story?

1: This is the first project for the new copy righted Publishing company "ODD Comics"
2: .jpg, .png ".png" would be preferable, the highest possible quality.
3: Content ristrictions: no hentai, yaoi, inflation, or any of that sort. Skimpy outfits partial nudity is all up for the artist in it's design but no sex THEMED or focus art. (for all those dick joke obsessed newgrounders, homosexuality is ok :P)
4: no story correction, each person has their own page to express anything they want in comic form, anyway they want fitting into their page.

Well, this sounds like a lot of fun :D My drawing is so-so (although, it sucks for an animator :P) and this could be cool... Good publicity too, I'd think.

I like the whole idea of it - leave a spot for Games-And-Gigs, you can email me anytime about it if you wanna discuss ideas or want to get my info before we start (I'm always on it... xD)

I'd prefer it if you could use one of the business contacts listed on my website, just so I don't have to root through my Hotmail accounts spam box and such to find it.

Hope to work with you soon!

Hi Hans! I gotta say you are not only more popular than you think, but one of the most inspiring Flash artists I know. Your 'Animation Invasion' is truly mind blowing stuff for anyone to make leave alone a 17 year old! Infact I was so inspired by it that I showed a number of my friends in film making class and I thanked you in the credits of my own Flash Movie 'A PiCO Story' :-)

Sorry I can't take part in this awesome comic book project you're working on, because I live in India, but I DO wish you the very best of luck on your venture and just keep going kid cause one day you're gonna wake up and be rich and famous! :-D

Sweet! I'm also working on a comic book, and I'm going to use that extra exposure. I'll help out.

You missed some important specifics:
Copyright details on our charactors and stories?
CMYK or RGB color?
Live, Trim, and Bleed area specs?
DPI?
File types accepted?
28 front/back pages or just 28 pages?

I mean that is major stuff that needs to be addressed and should be available even the early stages of a project like this. Sorry for seeming so skeptical, but your profile says you are 17.

yeah, being 17 is somthing you should have expected being on newgrounds. I honestly don't think that should be any reason what so ever to actually make you believe that this will not happen or such. ODD Comics is an official Publisher now and all i'm doing is giving NG artists a chance to expose there work as a comic. Being that I adore the presentation and the all around aspects of comics has encouraged me to start working with them. Knowing that I'm not alone out there, dreaming to have my ideas in the form of professional comic, this project is only the first of what I plan on making ODD Comics.

so basically, if you aren't interested in the project. I would suggest you not write anything at all. The lack of specifications in the topic is intentional in the aspect that I'm giving an idea of what it's all about. any specifications needed could just be personally asked through PMing me.

in short. don't break balls, man.

Ok so you want us to do a single page? I would join and do one tonight but you blocked me D:, or changed your email

haha sry changed email...

This is really really sweet!

If you need anyone to join in, I'm totally down for it. Just PM me with any specific info such as dimensions (Letter size im assuming), as well as color options and other needed pieces of informations.

HOPE TO BE ABLE TO JOIN!
