I'm really surprised there's not a topic here already about it!

This Saturday, October 3rd, 2009, is 24 Hour Comic Day.

For those who don't know, I'll just explain it real general like...

24 Hour Comic Day is a day where comic book artists (mostly amateurs, some pros) all get together and draw a 24 page comic book. Within the 24 hours, they script, draw, 24 pages of an original comic book. Now you don't have to necessarily be with any group of people during the 24 hours, it just kinda makes it for a funner night.

Some places have set-ups where you can eat, drink, go to the bathroom, and all that, while you chill with other people and draw.

I'm curious to see who here from Drunkduck is participating.

If anyone's interested, we could start up some sort of AIM chat to where we could keep in touch, and see how it's going.

So who's all doing it?

I didn't realise it was so close.

I keep considering entering, but I don't think I'm good enough an artist to crank out pages that fast. Hell, I'm not good enough to crank out pages at all.

Hey buddy, you should be a Russian Cosmonaut, and here's why.

Tomorrow, huh?

Kinda late to come up with anything, also my sleeping schedule is wrecked enough as it is.

I know, Instead I'll pencil 24 sketches for my sketchbook (will have material to ink for almost two weeks then, hah)

Haha, divide it up! Make it 24 hour comic weekend. 12 hour or even 4 hour spurts, with no working allowed in between.

If I do it, that's what I'll be doing since I can't afford to stay up all night.

Damn, not a single venue in all of Australia. I don't even get a chance to pretend to consider going.

I wrote a script for a 24 page comic, but I didn't make the comic yesterday, so I'll have to do it another time

My school had a bunch of people doing it, they all just holed up in a room for the whole 24 hours and drew stuff. I didn't know about it until it was over, but I probably wouldn't have done it. I likes my sleep. I also likes my Rock Band. I don't likes my homework, but that had to be done too.

I wish we had a group doing the challenge again. I have a nice script just waiting. As it happens, Robot Wars started out as a 24/24 challenge comic, which I completed in 21:45 hrs complete with the cover as it is. Like to do it again sometime...

I too participated, but since i was making a collab with another artist, and i also worked in doing their script; my comic turned out awful, i just uploaded it if anyway wants to see how time gradually breaks up an artist's will, and quality.

last year i gave up at page 18, it was 8:00 AM ...
This year i finished at 7:00 AM, but i started to work on my comic at 3:00 Pm
