Well , actually , he wasnt , and hes a murderous psychopath , but i digress.

The halls of stripcreator fell silent at the sound of her voice , the weight of her stare. Even Tobor shudders at the mention of her name.

Yes , its LadyJ. And shes pretty pissed off.

So pissed off in fact , that shes killed another forumuser in a truly gruesome manner.

And your Task : Write a three part comic -

Part 1 :The Murder. How was the act done. With the lead pipe in the Billiard Room , or pushed in front of an 18 wheeler off a motorway bridge. And who was the victim?(My moneys on Nate).

Part 2 : The Trial. If they could get OJ off , they can get anyone off , right? (You can extend this to as many strips as you want , since it has endless opportunities for making Johnny Cochrane jokes).

Part 3 : The Aftermath. Guilty or Innocent? Free to do a Kathleen Turner in Serial Mom , and murder the Juror who was wearing white shoes after Labor Day? Or sentenced to 25 years of making other prisoners lives a living hell? You decide.

(I should point out for future reference , this is an idea i came up with months ago. Its just immensely bad timing on LadyJ's part to sweep me in the Serial Comic Contest at this time).

Ack! If only I hadn't used up all my good court jokes in Tobor In Chains!

...Trot and Cap'n Bill were free from anxiety and care. Button-Bright never worried about anything. The Scarecrow, not being able to sleep, looked out of the window and tried to count the stars.

Whose got the script of the court room bit in Airplane II? Lol, this could be fun, shall I do this first or the other 99? And I can see you beng the victim in many people's comics.

I am not 16 going on not 17, I know that I'm naive.

This is a bit of a missed opportunity. You could have had a Room 101 themed contest.

Is there a deadline on this thing?

Hopefully it'll be a couple of days away, I need to get myself in "the mood" to write a series just now.

I'm feeling awfully inadequate after reading kaufman's entry.

No, wait, I always feel that way.

The Irony-o-meter would have gone off the chart had she entered and won.

Sorry to disappoint.

I'm just not feeling up to a 3-parter right now.

One thing I learned from competing in CC98 is the importance of storyboarding a long series before making the strips. So that's what I did. I have just finished storyboarding, and I will now begin to make the strips. The series will be titled "Bitch Trial."

Cmon people. Theres a very weak response to this strip. Half the regulars in CC's appear to have wandered off for a bit.

Im greatly disappointed.

"Life Sucks, Then you Die. The bit inbetween isnt very funny either"

Different strokes for different folks here. For better or worse, my entry sort of wrote itself. I had a few base strips that I decided to build from, and then started filling in the gaps (it's no coincidence that the series comics are not in numerical order.) I'm actually kind of tickled that some of the things I wrote early fit so well into what I wound up doing late, but it wasn't at all preplanned. In fact, it was only around the last 3 strips that I had any clue of how I'd end the darn thing.

I follow the J. Michael Straczynski method. I usually have some sort of story arc in mind, but the individual episode write themselves. In some cases, I barely even have that... just a premise of, "what would happen if...?"

Like Kaufman did, I'll break this into multiple posts. This first one contains the prologue.
