If there were more dinosaur characters, I would make more characters.

Fucking mammals. Think they own the place. Fucking mammals.

They're all like that but funnier.

Movie Time!--the CORRECT VERSION! by ExNihilo 9-05-02

I'm writing an art film. It's about a young dinosaur on a sexual adventure in the Mesozoic. A coming of age story, if you will. Ja, Bob, are you ready for zee sweet sweet love? Take me, Fritz. That doesn't sound much like art. Did I say "art?" I meant "naked."

Very funny. At first I was like, "Hey, I do the dinosaurs comics around here!!! But then I realized that I don't own those characters (not the mention my severe writer's block which has lasted two weeks)

Good Luck

Mike

Sorry. I guess I should have checked out the territory beforehand. ;-)

Shouldnt that be "I make comics about Dinosaurs that arent very funny" ?

i think they're pretty funny, but then lately i'm some kind of fucking newbie cheerleader or something. may i suggest trying to make comics that aren't about dinosaurs? there are many different sets of art available here, and not all of your jokes pivot around the fact that the characters are dinosaurs. you're in danger of playing out the joke.

True. There are lots of funny things you can do that don't involve dinosaurs. Like ...

J-Park by kaufman 9-07-02

We're gonna surround you in bigger amounts, then one distracts you while the others pounce. We tear the flesh from woman and man, even the lawyer sittin' on the can. Honey, don't tell me... Yup. Velocirappers. We communicate with a gutteral beat, bang the drums while we move our feet. To escape from us there's one way only, you need a fat contract like Neill or Leoni.

No.

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't intend to use any characters other than the dinosaurs. When I first saw SC I noticed that not too many people were using them and that they were full of potential. Also, I think most of the creators here tend to stick to a stable of five characters or so, sort of like how Bill Watterson made it a rule not to introduce new characters into Calvin and Hobbes after the first year or so (and the one time he did introduce a new character he soon regretted it). In comics this is usually a good idea. It's like a painter or a designer using a limited pallette to create a more unified work of art.

Jesus Christ, do I sound pretentious. I think about comics way too fucking much.

I love dinosaurs. These are great. You know. I think I am in love with your dinosaurs. Can you arrange something for us please? I have a fat checkbook.

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

I dunno. I don't wanna make art. I just wanna make comics that are about dinosaurs. And as long as they're not all about dinosaurs, does it really matter that they are dinosaurs?

Actually, I tried making ones that weren't about dinosaurs, but I didn't like them.

The Impossible Dream by ExNihilo 9-08-02

Don't you ever feel like being the same dinosaur day in and day out is a little tiresome? Don't you ever wanna be somebody else? You mean like... small asian girls? Wow. That was possibly the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me. Suddenly, I have a new appreciation for Hello Kitty and school uniforms.

I like them Ex. They're good. But you knew that.

Mugshots by ExNihilo 9-10-02

Man, I've been meanin' to ask you. Why do you carry out that mug? There's no coffee in it. It is a familiar object that brings me a sense of security, and helps me to create the illusion that nothing ever changes and that life has no vissitude. That's deep, Bruce. Plus, it says "World's Greatest Grandpa" on the side.

Because the Professionals are Straight by ExNihilo 9-10-02

Norbert! Rumor around the office is that you're gayer than a room full of amateur DJ's. Is this true? Sir, doesn't that question invade my privacy? Privacy? Pfft. You waived your right to privacy when you signed that document that said I could break in and rifle through the possessions in your house while you're at work. I never signed that. Oh. Then I guess that means you're gonna want your penis mags back. Well, no wonder I couldn't find my copy of "T-Rexxx and the Triceracocks."

i second josh's opinion.

I like this one of yours, keyoung:

Camus' Elephant's Joke of the Day (Allison K.) by keyoung 9-07-02

hey bill, how many emo kids does it take to change a light bulb? i don't know, how many? none, because they all like to sit in the dark and cry! i'm wearing converse sneakers.

Heh. Emo.

Absorbed directly through the skin.

thanks! my friend allison has to get the credit for that one though, she made the joke up...

This thread seems like a good place to voice my appreciation for both ExNihilo's and keyoung's comics. Keep it up, guys.

The what mentioned above is total fiction. Please don't take it seriously!

KEYoung, you should make one with Ianesco's Rhinoceros. If they have a Rhinoceros.

yes, damnit! both of you need to keep it up. but both of you seem to have stopped...
