I've been thinking about different ways of using the Stripcreator engine. I don't want to get too far away from teh funny, but I have fond memories of the old EC comics (no, I'm not old enough to have bought originals, thank you very much).

So for CC 340, your mission is to scare us out of our wits. The winning comic or series can be funny (EC had a wicked sense of humor), but I need a little of that chilly frisson I get from watching Rosemary grab a knife and head for the hall closet. If you can evoke that, you're in the running.

Photoshops are acceptable, but I'm leaning towards use of the materials at hand. Series of any length necessary - if you have more than five, just give us a link to the sixth one and we'll take it from there.

It was such a waste of everyone’s time and money that even the Tokyo stadium’s rape robots apologized– something they were programmed specifically never to do.

I thank all the participants. You are all too kind.

I will judge this tomorrow afternoon, so if there are any more scary stories out there, get them in!

Okay, it's judging time! It was a challenge that not a lot of people took up - (translation: bolo sucks at creating contests, and not in a good way) - so the folks who did step out there, I really appreciate a lot.

The winner, though, is crabby. He really took the contest to a new level, which is what I was looking for. The other strips are all good, biped's especially. But it's crabby today.

I really felt motivated by a contest which featured rules that could be drawn out into an artful 5 comic 3 panel per comic series. Thanks alot Bolobolon and I'll never forget this.

I guess I'll have to take your word for it that Crabby's was the best;  I fell asleep halfway thru #3 from reading all the dialogue...

We all have our own style I suppose.

I'm gonna try to think up ideas for a contest that people might actually want to participate in while I'm at work today and they should be posted shortly.

Yes.  Your comics are well thought out, intellectually stimulating, and sophisticatedly humorous.  Mine are lame-ass doodlings from a three year-old's mindset

I appreciate the compliment.

New contest rules coming this weekend.
