Comic Collective, Consortium, Collaberation, blah blah etc
Ok first things first. We have a motion from Shishio to become a collective of sorts who's in? Also we need a name as well. So if anybody has any ideas lay em out. I don't believe we need a leader or anything I think it'll be just fine as a true democracy. This is kinda what I was planning for the future anyway so I guess there's no time like the present. Totally brainstorming here for names I came up with:
BastArt Comics (don't ask and I promise I won't tell) Shit someone has that one too
Hive Mind Comics (you know because we're a collective... get it?) available
Fuck our Yankee Bluejeans (sorry I watched Clerks last night)
Broken Press Comics (Seeing how Nick and I are always late) Available also should get bpcomics for short hand linking
The Daily Llama (heh that one is kinda funny if you get the pun) whoops monty python has that
so there you go. let the carnage begin!!

I think we should brainstorm a few more titles. But out of the two I'd go with Broken Press, since it vaguely has something to do with comics.
I must confess I'm sitting on a good name for a consortium (Wandering Mongrel Comics,) but I've been saving that one for when I have my shit more officially together. I even have a logo devised.

I vote for Broken Press. Heh, sorry about being late, Kev only just brought this to my attention, and i'm clearly lazy about checking forums.

<Zero_Hawk> Grimace vs that Robot from T2
<Zero_Hawk> The one that regenerates
<MoogleGenocide[Bork]> Grimace couldn't lose.
<MoogleGenocide[Bork]> But he couldn't win
<malevolence> Grimace can breathe fire
<malevolence> he'd melt the robot
<MoogleGenocide[Bork]> Because he has no offensive capability
<MoogleGenocide[Bork]> He's like the Thwomp from Mario Party
<Zero_Hawk> The robot would regenerate
<Muddbogginredneck> you all need a life
<Zero_Hawk> You need to stop sleeping with your cousin.
<Muddbogginredneck> no
Hmm I Like the Wandering Mongrel as well... Well it seems we have a bit of a tie here.. anymore ideas? Also those in favor of their respective names make a logo. seems Nick is one step ahead of us in that dept. Also no Idea is a bad idea, no matter how crazy even if you whack out a crazy name it may spark an idea in someone else. (notice i came up with Broken Press after fuck your yankee blue jeans) I'm trying to bang together an extra Halloween filler but I'll get on a logo after that.
Thought I'd add some tag lines and bring some new ideas to teh table.

Well there you go some more things to ponder. I guess we need to ask ourselves this. I think it is funny but would the average person get it? No doubt some of these are nasty but just think would your mom get it? oh the +/- thing is just my thought on whether or not the average person wold get it and or not be offended by it (not that it matters) but just the way I think about things.

Silicon = High-tech, computer related stuff. Silicone = Breast implants. I guess you better keep that "-" there. :-)
"Abhorrent" (meaning 'loathsome') is more of a contradiction with "Greatness," which is what I was going for with that one, but "Aberrant" is always a useful word too.
Have to disagree with your "-" ratings on Sensory Burn, Brainfuck Comix, and The Axis of Indecency. What's there not to understand? I do agree that Brainfuck is probably too offensive to use as a name, though.
The more I think about it, the more I want to go with Intravenous Comics. I'm surprised no one's thought of that name yet -- it's a great metaphor for the more immediate delivery of the webcomic medium versus regular print comics.
We could use the slogan "Your Daily (Webcomic) Injection" and set our schedules up so that there was a new comic from at least one out of the group every day (or at least Monday through Friday.) For the main page we could have a banner at the top with a horizontal hypodermic needle filled with headshots of our main characters, and the Navigation section could be an IV bag.

The other two were possible turn offs. Not by me per se' but thinking like the general public (it ain't that hard, they are idots afterall) sensory burn and axis of indecency just sound negative, cool as far as I'm concerned but negative none the less.Tenma wrote:Silicon = High-tech, computer related stuff.

google dictionary needs updating or i mispelled it when I typed the A word I used the other one cuz it was hte first hit.
I agree Intravenous sounds pretty cool we could even have a special collaberation everynow and again called The Weekend Fix.
Stepping back I wonder if Blank Label and Cornstalker went through this. It's real hard to agree on something when everyone is so creative
Oh and the silicon thing I totally knew... no really... I did... oh who the fuck am I kidding I totally messed that one up Oh does anybody remember the one that that DND with Satan guy is a part of from webcomic battle? i'd look but i'm too tired from being silent bob tonight for Halloween.
