And it would be the most popular comic on CG.

This sort of discussion never says much for the interests of your average internet-surfing webcomic mass audience member, eh?

Wait... I read manga... and gaming comics... and fantasy comics... and college roomie comics...

Cool. I'm every comic writer's nightmare.

I try to experiment with styles a lot, though I've received the comment that I've become too traditional lately. It's still an experiment for me, since I've never tried the traditional stuff. I guess what I end up with is a comic that only artists like to look at, while normal readers are annoyed at all the changes.

I'm not sure how to answer this question.
My comics are inspired by the way I view the world. I put my own personal spin on things.

I try to stay away from clichés.
My character seems to get more complex every time I look at him.
The Head Doctor looks like an old man, acts like a child, and has a puppet form of his Id on his hand at all times. Plus he wears hi top hat upside-down.

Also, I have many different comics, each with its own characters and style. Perhaps the style doesn't vary all that much, but I will probably experiment more with different styles in the near future.

I'm unique because I come up with many unoriginal ideas and stuff twenty pounds of them them into a ten pound sack.

At least the ones recieving it, for the rest of us it's hilarious.

Our sole claim to originality here is we have a gay man who isn't an irritating camp fashion whore, a muscle bound rapist or an irritating overly femine shonen Ai clitfest. He's astute, intelligent and he doesn't define himself entirely by his sexuality. I like to think we're very small gnomes pissing in Sandra Fuhr's soup.

Aside from that we're a hackneyed rip off of Something positive and Penny Arcade and someone should shoot us both and put us out of our fucking misery.

I would say the characters and their absurd designs, probably. Not every day you get a robot, a smiley face man, and an army general in one room together.

Unless you're doing a CG Jam. (Phactorii, Joel Fagin, and Mr Bob... ^_^)

I don't think anything I do is unique in itself; I just have some things that aren't usually spliced together and then did them in a webcomic format rather than a movie.
