I had one story that I thought of trying to write. It's still in my head. In the story, a young man finds himself the owner of a very large island somewhere in the middle of international waters (in the middle of the Pacific Ocean). He turns the place into a wildlife preserve and imports many endangered species into it, and many wildlife scientists volunteer to live on the island to study and help watch over the them. Seemed like a nice idea...

I was "discouraged" out of writing it by my high school Literary Arts teacher who advised that I should know about what animals can exist on the island, how all the science works, and also how the island would fend of threats such as multi-national corporations who will try to take the island to turn it into a resort, or the various poachers who will try to invade the place to get at all the rare animals...


Anyone else have wierd story ideas you thought of but never really worked on? :)

I have a weird story idea. I am gonna work on it and its somewhat related to MAG-ISA.

Anyway so far its gonna be about this guy (or girl) with a reptilian bloodline whose mission is to assassinate a guy who is totally based on David Icke's character... plus a whole bunch of other missions that will play it out like an RTS game or something.

I dunno. Maybe I'd make him/her into a crossbreed between a reptilian, a human, and a bird-like race known as the Sarimanok.

Its basically gonna be a demon playing the role of a protagonist. To accomplish the mission, he (and the forces of dark) must overcome threats such as the Galactic Federation, Andromeda Council, and various light beings trying to stop the plans of the New World Order.

I plan throwing in more crazy things into the plot like the orchestration of wars, you know... throwing in politics to make various factions of the human race fight each other. Until we have Christian vs Muslim vs Communist vs Jew vs Atheist... where every damn country in the world is throwing missiles at each other.

Also the idea that the Philippines has been experimented on by the illuminati-reptilian alliance based in an underground base in Capiz, the chocolate hills, and banaue rice terraces. There are secret labs underneath those places where horrible experiments are going on. Everything from pedophilia to satanic rituals to cloning of mind-controlled assassins.

There's gonna be aswangs in the ranks of the commies, muslims, and christians who battle it out. As well as throwing in questions about religion, science, and all that. Also people switching sides. Also battles taking place around the world and in different time periods. So far I have Pre-colonial Philippines and the 1896 Katipunan revolution as potential battle sites.

Maybe the question... Just because I'm reptilian, do I need to really do this? And the cliche angst and feelings of alone-ness that is always found in every comic I do.

Crazy stuff.

And the insertion of other characters from MAG-ISA and Brood Knight. Like you know, Brood Knights are actually a hybrid between a reptilian and an insectoid.

meh... too complicated. I dont even know where to start. lol

I only get weird ideas, but then again I have a gigantic e lodged into my head...

I've got one which I haven't written a whole lot on (it's still kicking around in my head) where Charon, the ferry man of the underworld in Greek myth, lives in the boiler room ('cause it's downstairs :P) of an apartment building owned by the seven archangels.

Gabriel is a car mechanic, and Uriel is a closet pyromaniac. >.> I swear I don't know where these things come from.

This discouraged you? Are you out of your tiny mind? Researching and incorporating these things into your story would only serve to improve it.

Oh wait, you can't, because research is hard isn't it? Who told you writing was easy? I want a full name and address so I can smack 'em one in the gob.

Research is even fun, if you do it right. They say write what you know, but if you don't learn new things, you'll be stuck writing the same thing over and over. Kind of boring, isn't it?

Most of my ideas are at least a bit weird. Like recently I came up with a drag queen superhero...

Then there are things like pirate ships using catapults instead of cannons, a blood-drinking axe, a planet where all metal rots, polar bears running a penguin slave ring, and a guy so far called Plantman, who's sort of like swamp thing but wears suits and somkes cigars (and maybe other stuff) :)

One storyline I'm toying with happens with one of the lead characters in my comic - Desmond.

He is frequently the victim of...discipline in his home (His mother whups his ass). Now, growing up as a kid, my mother has said things to me that in hindsight, I find funny. A metaphor like:

If you keep acting up, I'm going to knock you in the middle of next week!

Well, what would happen if that ACTUALLY came true? If his mother had some sort of strike with the hand which opened up a temporal rip in the fabric of time and it knocked Desmond into the middle of next week? What would he do if he saw his past self?

The arc would end with the PAST self finding a way to get back in time. Perhaps coaxing his mother into hitting him again.

Who knows...It's a storyline for the comic's seventh grade year anyway.

The whole premise of Off Hours started out as a weird idea-! lol!

I thought about doing a spin-off story where Creature turns out to be evil and goes on a killing spree and eats people. I called it "Creature Eat Everything!"

I've had ideas and I've had ideas. Sometimes I based my ideas on dream or just something weird.
My comic The Other Me (http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Other_Me/ ) started in the middle of my studies of chemistry when all of a sudden(I'm really absent minded) I thought what if in an alternate universe I was good at chemistry. Anyways that was pretty tame compared to some of my other just odd ideas, now I don't want to reveal everything but let's just say one involves math and I don't mean anything like XKCD, I mean an actual story that involves math. I won't ever write it until I feel like I have enough knowledge in math...so maybe in another 7 years if I'm still alive or writing and have gotten my degrees.

Whoa... if you got knocked into next week... literally... then there couldn't be a "past" self; you'd be missing since last week only to be found THIS week... okay. I need to put a cold towel on my head before my brains steam out of my ears. :)

come on! The weird ones are the best. The weirder the better. I will disregard my normal run-of-the-mill ideas for the weirdest one I have. All these weird ideas are great! I want to read all of them! I wish I had ideas as weird as that! Power to the weird!
