Comic Recommendations Thriller: Bastard is probably blocked at school so here's another link. TW: death, murder, gore, abuse, etc etc. A conflicted teenage serial killer who finally has purpose in his life but finds himself in all the wrong situations. This is hands up the best thing I've ever read. Legit. Stuff happens when you don't expect it to and you're in this perpetual state of getting your emotions beat up and wanting them to be beat up but also wanting to be happy at the same time. The main character is so real and the development is great. Best pacing I've ever seen. There's not a lot of color but when you see the reddish accents they really highlight the panels. 10/10. Comedy: God of Bath slightly NSFW, no frontal nudity but it's set in a bathhouse so you can't expect much. People might think things if they look at your screen w/out context though. Keep reading. Stupidest thing I've ever read. I love it so much. Centered around this arrogant kid who takes a lot of selfies, ends up in huge debt, and stumbles upon a bathhouse. He finds hope in scrubbing away people's dead skin cells with his friends and gains purpose in life. I love it. Art is 10/10 and the topic is funny cuz it's so weird and doesn't make sense. Also has great pacing and character development. Romance: The Stories of Those Around Me Romance comics are so often written by people who don't understand romance and just want to self-satisfy with fanservice. Not this one. I'm reading a few cool romance comics but this really stuck out to me because of how realistic it is. It doesn't try to dumb things down for the reader or appeal to fanservice for no reason other than fanservice-ing. Bad things happen and good things happen and sometimes you're just not into someone even though you've been together for a long time and you get along. You need to make decisions even if it hurts. Lots of great life lessons and it makes your heart all fuzzy and sometimes sad.
Comic Shoutouts Miso, who wrote and illustrated Siren's Lament and Where Tangents Meet, has the most beautiful art style I've ever seen. Everything is so shiny and colorful and soft and you really get a feel for the emotions. Also they have the hottest soundtracks. Lovespells by Ryan and Sage is in black and white but the coloring is still so good???? you can feel the nonexistent color through the screen. Also the character designs are amazing. They're diverse, but they're so cute. The main character is definitely chubbier than your standard fantasy heroine, but while she doesn't have a dorito chin, you can tell that her body type is a part of her uniqueness. It wasn't done for the sake of realism. It just happened to suit her. Also I feel like the character development is going to be really great and the fantasy videogame setting is really cool! Probably the least angsty comic I'm reading right now XD But yeah! Have fun reading and see you tomorrow! idk that was a random pic i found that i thought looked cool but it probably has a story behind it
here's a list of articles that i liked.
anddd getting straight to the point this time.. sooo no workshop. but went over some things like official mascot (check out the new icon guys!! isn't it cool? you can find it if you search pink alien on favicon.cc.) and fundraising stuffs.
recap: art wall. make merch? video ideas? make cool stuff we can put on the website. face. see you mondayy! helloooo comic clubb here's the link to the government/cliche workshops that we were talking about today: thing what we figured out from the discussion about the winter assembly today:
please take this survey :3 thanks for reading! have some faces :))
No workshop this meeting so this will be a short recap. basically stuff is going public so we need to get it done!1!1!!!111 GIVE IZZY MONEY SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO BUY FOOD ALSO GWEN YOU NEED TO REMIND ME BC I KEEP FORGETTING have a face. or two. we'll probably be doing a thing next week where we spend the whole time peer reviewing each others' documents (character development, panel plans, things like that). so yeah have your folders and stuff ready by then! To Dos
episodes < chapters < arcs < comic, if it helps. alsooo from now on we're going to do a thing where we have one table of people who want to work on their own (or with the person they're doing their comic with), and another table where people are open to talking about their comics with each other. so the people who want to work won't be distracted and the people who wanna share can do their thing. IDEA COURTESY OF GWEN. anddd! I was thinking we should have a club mascot that just shows up randomly and it'll be great. nominate a mascot here! https://goo.gl/forms/tMkrXwTCZI8yFvPX2 Have a nice day and good work! <3 helllooo
so mccoots was talking about HAT feedback (honest, actionable, timely) and I was super inspired so I'm writing this post. tHIS. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT. It may be a life changing decision. Or at least,, subscriber changing.
Here are some tips! 1) Keep the length to a minimum. Take this screenshot I got from Tapastic as reference. We'll be referring to it a lot. **disclaimer: all the information here has been taken from other sources (forums and stuff) where people discuss platforms they’ve been on.
