What if Stripcreator was huge, hmm? Wouldn't that be nice? Sure it would.

When a comicstrip/cartoon that I enjoy gets huge, the marketing department takes over and saturates the marketplace with towels, posters, toys, toothbrushes, and anything else. The saddest part is when the fad has run its course and they sit dejectedly at Big Lot's and K-Mart's discount bins. It's depressing.

So this is the story. Strip Creator is huge, now do strips about all of the merchandise. The more craptastic and unneccesary, the better. Bonus points for making Strip Creator greeting cards. (Boy, i sure don't enjoy the Bloom County ones, i guess because I always expect them to be as funny as the series was, but hey, it's a greeting card, right?).

Old strips are welcome like a friend coming over to a party with nothing; new strips are welcome like a friend bringing over drinks and chips, but both are welcome. It's a party!

Judging on Tuesday. Weee!

mmyers April 10, 2003 9:44 AM	Yeah, those kind of got me thinking about the marketing side of things, but I felt that there might be more disturbing things to be marketed, although these disturb me because of the weird built in camel toe or whatever it is that it stuffed in the front.

jes_lawson April 10, 2003 12:38 PM	136391 That last punchline must be crap coz I think I have to explain it, it's supposed to be like the old "Take my wife. Please." gag. If you got the punchline forget what you have just read.

Drexle April 10, 2003 3:08 PM	Sadly, I don't think our judge will get this one. Good thing it's not technically an entry. 136407 And here's an oooold one that at least somewhat fits the actual theme of the contest. You did ask for greeting cards... 49191

Hello all.
Family emergency so i'll be brief.

Mentions of distinction:
To microfetus, for an excellent start into the world of CC
And dcomposed, for that noncompliant, long, bizarre strip. I read the whole thing.

The Honorable Judge Mention presiding:
137132by Umfudisi
136796by TheGovernor
136380by maddog00
136378by Zegota
136448by BigEvilDan

And the winner, often imitated, often duplicated, Kaufman's 137280.

Many thanks, all who participated. Lots of good stuff that made it hard to pick.

Kaufman, you have the floor.

kaufman April 15, 2003 9:53 AM	Well, there is one other success-spoiled stripcreator product that will be marketed. But it still has to be built to completion. That will be your job in the next contest ...
