Just your own or every ones?

Well, if you could forward me (somehow) your comics for DYOS 10 and DYOS 11 (I already have all from DYOS 10.5) that would save me quite... quite a lot of time. Your comics amounts to probably 70% of the time it takes me to download the comics in these threads (Stylesrj's counts for 28%).

Here's a little pilot comic I had cooking in my mind for a while:

Spoiler :

Spoiler :

This is basically a trailer for my next comic series in the DYOS saga (DYOS 12).

Given that my character is also my author avatar in the series. I tend to take things to heart and seriously (Consequently angst and beat himself over it). So this would give him an initial start on why my character is hesitant to even return back to the DYOS world. The other idea came from pointers from Lord Joakin who've mentored me in improving my comics and he suggested that I'd look into The Hero with a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell and the idea of the Monomyth. I'd figure that DYOS 12 would be a good place to start my Comic Renaissance (and hence why I am eager to have DYOS 11 a closure).

The main plot revolves around the idea of an internet censorship (Think SOPA/PIPA, but on a much larger scale). With Kasumi being the successor to Motoko Kusanagi, the congress of the Republic regressed back to the ways of Roster's Administration (Thorvald suggested to me "Think what happened to Obama" =p) which sets me up to go out on my own with Ayane along with a rag tag band of mistfits that I could find (Only some will remain aboard the Talos unless there is a need in the plot). Of course there are going to be some subplots that I am keeping under my hat .

The "Explosion" at the bar is a call back to Stylesrj's first comic in DYOS 11 when he was at the bar and the ship exploded from underneath him. The "Holding down the base or they've moved on" is just my explanation as to why most of the characters from DYOS 11 would be making very rare appearances, giving me time for character development for the rest.

The reasoning for including Tifa Lockhart from FF7 is not because she is an unselfish, caring, kind character, and a brawler. Given how I routinely introduce other characters from other games and movies that people know little about. This gives me a chance to have that happened to myself and my cast of characters. The plan is once in a while Tifa would reference something in FF7 that would confuse the heck out of my characters and think she's crazy.

As to why Nozomi Valentine is present and the Republic is the victor in the Battle of Coruscant can be chalked up to Stylesrj's idea of having Deila and an unnamed son being the main focus in his story . I've tried to give the "Mysterious Old Man" a troll face, but somehow, the faceposing on his model won't allow it .

I'll see what I can do.

"Id like for you to come with me to take down the conspiracy behind the censorship of the Internet"

You know you're the hero when...

The Hero with a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell

Very good book. Me own mum pushed me to read it.

Ah yes, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
That's why I moved to speech boxes.

A brawler eh? Well she'd probably make a great drinking buddy with Qara.

Oh that unnamed son will have a name very shortly...

Most of my DYOS V to VIII comics are horribly out of order and some may be deleted.

I think I started organising roughly at DYOS IX and even then they were not numbered. I started numbering at X...

 

[e350tb]

Well, I'm stoked. I might do a teaser comic myself, now I think of it...

 

[choxorn]

I don't have any of my IX comics anywhere, as far as I can tell.

I'd make a teaser comic, but I really need to get working on my plot-forwarding comics.

 

[Stylesrj]

I once thought about doing a teaser comic like you, until I took some procrastination in the mind...

God damn it, it's all my fault introducing that Skyrim meme .

 

[Stylesrj]

It must have taken some sort of tactical genius to...
CIIIIIIIVGEEEENERAL!

Don't forget the Space Core Meme... you ruined my "Meanwhile in SPAAAACCCEE!!" thing with that...

 

[choxorn]

I've never played Portal 2, and all I know about it is that Space Core.

 

[Tee Kay]

DYOS 6 done.

It took me 2 1/2 hours to go through the thread, and that was mostly flaming. It was such a painful thread to read.

 

[Stylesrj]

It was such a painful thread to read.

Ah yes, the old shames... those were the times when I was trying too hard and picking more fights than Qara in a tavern at midnight.

 

[DaemonDD]

Isn't there also a DYOS-episode appropriately named "The Flame Wars" or was that just an event during one of the DYOS'es?

IIRC, it was a pre-DYOS story serving as a background history told by the tactical genius of...

KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNN!!!

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

All righty, all my comics from DYOS 10 onward that only used a single file have been rehosted. Since TK's done what he can for 6-9, unless there are any urgent protests I shall delete the old archives from ImageShack.

 

[Tee Kay]

There were quite a number of comics that I couldn't view. Do you still have them on with you offline?

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

All of them.

Hell, I might even remaster a few if I find the time.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

Alright, I'm finally safe with ImageShack.^{Bloody IOT!} I only got an official e-mail about twelve hours ago; I can't thank CG enough for alerting me sooner.

What's still needed?
