Caption contest! (Write dialogue and win comics!)

Post by Gothboy »

Hi all,

I'm running a little contest to celebrate my new website. All you have to do is write the dialogue for the page below. All entries get a spot on my site with a link to yours (of course) and the best one gets a set of Amaranth comics (that's my mini-press effort, which has only just started to appear as a weekly webcomic. Visit the page for more info.)

This is the page: (sorry for size)

You can either write a script or put your own balloons in. Image manipulation is allowed and, indeed, encouraged.

More information on the contest and the prize can all be found on my spiffy new home: http://www.williehewes.co.uk

Hey! I know you! Not really, but I was a fan of Free Z since I first saw it a long time ago. I'm actually citing it in a bibliography for a report I'm doing.

I could give the word bubbles a shot, but I'm on the family computer this weekend and the only image application available here is MSPaint...

I get into bibliographies? :o Cool! Did you know the book's coming out soon? (Well, I say book, it's a colour print mini-comic really.)

You can just write a script if that's easier, I'll put in the balloons and letter.

I have a question: does it need to fit the tone of your comic or can it be completely random? Can it be like one big joke, or should it be somewhat serious?

Nope, it can be humorous or surreal or whatever you like. You can go as mad as you like. :)

Now you're stuck with the "outrage guy" label. You're never gonna shake it off.

Though, still better than "the guy with no nipples", I guess.

Don't feel bad; I probably would've chuckled at it ten years ago.

It's not the joke that's important, it's the audience!! Get ye to an elementary school, pronto!

Denial is not falsification. You can't avoid a fact just because you don't like it.
"Data" is not the plural of "anecdote"
