Didn't we JUST review a sprite comic?

This is one crappy comic.

Jokes: Bad. Not funny at all. Offensive half of the time, just plain terrible the other half.

Presentation: Terrible, and it doesn't improve.

Art: These are sprites, and there's not even any background. I mean, in over 100 pages you didn't make a single improvement with the sprites.

Writing: Terrible. Bad. I don't even know how to describe how bad this writing is. It's like someone was smoking pot and then they were like "This would funny" so they wrote it down. But then they ACTUALLY MADE IT INTO A COMIC.

The one little thing that was alright about this comic was the short animated GIF/Flash thingy. But that's it.

2/10.

yeah, what he said.
not funny. and the sprites used was soooo overused! :-\

why is it that people are always using megaman/mario sprites?

why not Sailor Moon and or rpgmaker Sprites for a change? :roll: or are you just one of those people who jumps on the bandwagon just because?

oh by the way, half of the jokes didn't make sense to me. it was just like "WTF?"
I'm on hitatus while I redo one of my webcomics. Be sure to check it out when I'n done! :)

This is a perfect example of why people don't like sprite comics, because they are all like this, that is all that needs to be said.
Of course you will. All intelligent beings dream. Nobody knows why.

Also, tell random people they are awsome! it helps!

Okay... Uh... yeeaah... about this comic...

Artwork: You copied overused sprites onto the page. They didn't even change positions. There were absolutely no backgrounds.

Story: No story. The jokes were bad and offensive.

This comic's not that great. Sorry, but it really isn't.

This year, school's full of BS!!!

Well, I wouldn't say that this comic is like all the other sprite comics. It doesn't have Sonic powering up or Megaman & Co imatating B&G. It's farily orginal in its crudeness, lack of any background, etc. Too bad all these things are unappealing. I found some lines really offensive. And I'm not a guy who is offended easily. I suppose "I got rapped at the gynecologist" could be funny in the right context, but here it falls flat. All the jokes are low-brow stupid or low-brow offensive. Great writing can carry a sprite comic, too bad this comic doesn't have any.

It was the obvious punch line in a string of obvious jokes about Roll (err... Daphne) getting pregnant. It stove to be funny by how shocking it was. Comedy, for me at least, is the realization of the unexpected. When a joke is obvious it's not funny, it's mearly tedius. And all of Rick and Daphne is tedius.

Now I'm not agaist anyone liking offensive humor. I just want the offense to be funny. Akakios3's is not.
