But Is My Mind Here?

[Lycurgus1985]

Hello all.
I wanted to get your opinions on this sprite comic I've been working on with my friend Mike. So far we have made two strips.
Please give me your feedback and I hope you enjoy.

Actually I have not.
Why do you ask?

Those sprites are crap, and you need to clean up the quality of them. And the backrounds too. :/

Yeah, the backgrounds look kind of crappy. Then again, this is why I wanted feedback.
But also, these aren't the PNG files which are much cleaner.
I had to upload JPEGs because Photobucket automatically resizes anything bigger than 250KB which these were.

But "the sprites are crap" really doesn't tell me much. How are they crap?
What do you think could be touched up about them? You know, details.

Also, I'd like a critique of the humor if you don't terribly mind.

They should be more detailed like doom sprites:

also, I don't see the humor.

That's actually really a matter of opinion and perception there.
I'm not trying to make an action oriented comic here with a first person look.
Sorry to disappoint.

rambling and random are the first words that come to mind.

Random, yes.
Rambling, how so?

Besides, I figured you of all people would like random.

i know a thing or two about terribly unfunny stream-of-conscious comics and failed experiments.

that doesn't mean i like them.

Well, I know you don't like them.
I would just like a bit more than what you're offering me.
Two word replies about humor or saying you know a thing or two
about this and that tells me jackshit. It helps if you actually say
what you do you know and explain why you don't like something.

Is that some kind of sonnet?

It does look that way I admit.
I was just simply keeping the text visible so no one had to scroll across the thread to read the rest of it.
You know, promote more laziness and all.

as long as you're being considerate of other readers' viewing experience, could get rid of that horrible sig?

Only if you get rid of your avatar.

[executioneer]

Its absolute fucking shit....in fact, thats not really fair as there really is nothing there to insult. None of those comic strips contain even the vaguest impressionistic suggestion of what could be classed as 'a joke'.
Sorry to be harsh, but best that someone tells you now before you start believing you are doing something worthwhile that others would be entertained by. Back to the drawing board for AT LEAST A DECADE.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY GOD?!?!?!?!
WHHHHHHHHHHY?!?!?!?!?!?
LIFE IS SO CRUEL!!!!!!!!!!!

On a serious note, that actually made me laugh Sacks. Thanks for the amusement.

But I do think someone would have to ask themselves if there mind
was there after reading the version you came up with. Are you trying to put people in the funny farm?

What's the matter Ziggy?
Am I annoying the shit out of you?
I expected that anyway considering everyone who has tried to burn me or insult me so far have yet to effect me.
So, I don't blame you if you get annoyed.

No shit!
Are you a rocket scientist?!
Your intellect amazes me. :P

But in all seriousness, beastiality is rather disgusting shit. It's just plain animal cruelty.

[xbxDaniel]

Then why do you do it?

P.S. You hypocrite.

What happened to you man?
What happened to your brilliant wit?
The "But Cosmo... the baby!" comment was hilarious.
But this is just pathetic. Come on, try harder man.
I know you got it in you.
