Your objective is to make a comic that makes me think it was made by me. If you'd like to study the style you'll be modeling look at these sets.

The basic rules are these:

1) Use the diesel1 or bluefade background.

2) Only use characters hammer2, itoldyou1, letter1 and thinking1 in any combination thereof.

That's it. I think I probably get this comic style from Max Cannon who does Red Meat. Go take a peek if you've never seen his stuff.

Judging will commence in about a week, give or take a few days depending upon number of entries. Your entry should be so funny it makes me keel over laughing, and then think about tracking you down and killing you for making something I should have thought of.

Good luck.

Please fogive my unintended use of the letter 'o' in the first one. That and 'i' are too close together for my liking.

I noticed the mysterious presence of two CC 348s. I was just getting us back on track.

Good job I immersed myself in your comic sets the other day or I'd have no idea why everyone was making comics about murdering Wirthling.

No, it just means I'm stealing your ideas.

Just kidding. I was gonna end the contest but then I realized it's only been three days. We'll give it a couple more.  Great comics, by the way.  You guys give me a warm fuzzy.

That would have been perfect if the guy on the left had said something like '362' in the last panel.

I don't believe in any of this giving prior warning to the end of a contest. It should sneak up on you, silently, like some sort of forum post ninja.

Good job everyone! I hope you enjoyed making them all as much as I enjoyed reading them. So here we go; the best of the best:

/comics/UnknownEric/387106/
/comics/HCRoyall/387127/
/comics/HCRoyall/387264/

But this one kept making me smile even after I read it a few times:

/comics/HCRoyall/387337/

It looks like HCRoyall has done the best job of capturing my style. I'm not sure if I should have him whacked or keep him on retainer to make comics for me in case I suffer traumatic brain injury.

Congratulations, HC! On with CC 351!
