The Adventures of Matt and Chris

Post by Matthewabel »

Well, The Adventures of Matt and Chris is about myself and my friend Chris. We don't have many real adventures other than living with one another. I am ready to show it to the world. Improvements can be made, but this is what I got and I'm ready to show it off as best I can. There may be material some may find questionable, ie language, references to homosexuality, comic violence, but I doubt enough of it to really offend anyone. I don't really know how to guage.

I would like to request you say whatever you want. But, also, if you comment, I would in my egotistic way have you say what your favorite one is.

Well... it needs work.... on many levels.... You need to make your humor more available to those who don't know you.... There seems to be alot of inside jokes, which I'm sure are funny, but it doesn't reach the audience outside your circle of friends....

That and a quick spell check would help clear things up....

But other wise not a bad start... the art is clean, and somewhat developed..... Keep on truckin man...

Very good start, I like the latest comic the best "super bowl comic". My little tid bit of advice would be to space the words in your speech bubbles better, they are jumbled and close together. Makes it a little hard to read. Other than that good start.

it's okay. not really my kind of humor, to be honest. i did chuckle at a few comics, though. if i had to pick a favorite, it'd be the "believe it or not, motherfucker!"

a suggestion i would make is that there isn't really enough action... there aren't a whole lot of characters, they don't really go many places... it's just sort of mundane. i realize that it's supposed to be based in real life, but it just seems TOO real life to be really interesting to me.

also, i realize it's just getting started but something you might want to think about is incorporating some sort of plot or goal or mystery of a sort.. something to keep readers coming back because they want to see what happens next.

all in all, not a bad start though.

I love your style of humour - it's that kind of low-key awesome funny that I totally get off on. Not too fond of the art, though. I think you'd do better to simplify and awesomeafy your art so it's easy to do/reproduce and gives it a more professional feel. Can't suggest any improvements to the funny though. Bloody heck, it's awesome.

Thanks

Just wanted to post a thanks to you folks. I appreciate the feedback quite a bit.

I am working on developing storylines, hopefully with more action. I feel the lack of action myself when I have to draw it - it gets boring pretty fast. So, hopefully, I'll get some action going on, get them out of the house. Some new characters will be appearing, hopefully.

Anyway, anymore feedback will be greatly appreciated. Especially suggestions on improving the artwork. I am obviously still finding a style to fit, but like MrEff said, just got to keep on truckin.
