New Words Contest

Post by Allan_ecker »

http://us.vclart.net/vcl/Artists/Allan- ... test03.gif

On my Live Journal there was talk of making this into a "caption" contest, so I'm making it official by posting her to the forum.

When I did this for filler a while back, I took something like 70% of the entries and used them. Essentially, what'll get your entry put up is it being "cool" by my extremely fickle estimation, but I figure everyone's having a good time either way, so hopefully there'll be no hard feelings if it's, like, two people who don't get their entry put up.

Feel free to have Pierce talk; I could always redraw a mouth or two for a good enough entry.

Those entries which pass my profoundly arbitrary system of judgement will show up on fridays after Unit Zero dropps to one comic a week, starting March.

I haven't forgot about my forumite drawing, but it's looking like the next few months are going to be cuh-razy in many ways, and I'm going to be starting a career -gasp- outside of college this summer so...

We'll see how things go. But since I'm terminally addicted to comics, I can easily promise to always at least have weekly content of some kind on this space, pretty much indefinitely.

Rhonda: So this is where the family met for the first time. Dad payed to have the football field repaired finally.

Rhonda (off screen): Kinda swet of him... hey, where did the folks go?

Rhonda: Nope, nothing new up there. Take a look over the side, Pierce, and see if there's anything that appears.

Pierce: Nothing! Two posts and that's it? C'mon people, this contest isn't that hard!

(Couldn't help myself)

Rhonda: Well, admittedly there's not a lot to really drive the comic. Sure, the scenery's kinda nice but we might as well be talking heads.
-------------
Pierce: Well, talking heads on top of a forty story building.
-------------
Rhonda(off camera): Pierce, do you ever get Deja Vu?

I'm finding it hard thinking of anythign to be honest, I usually put the comic strip to the dialogue I'm already thinking of, not the other way around.

Rhonda: Isn't that you up there.
Pierce: Looks like me.

Pierce (from below): You're a week too early. Recalibrate and try again.

Pierce (thought balloon): I'm giving myself such a slap when I see me again.

nice one DB.

i think this one is alot harder due to there being more panels and details then the last one.

This is what happens when I don't want to go out shopping for groceries - procrastinating.

C'mon, I can't be the only one doing junk like this. <.< >.> o.o Am I?

Nice one, DB. And just my theory on ancestral bloodlines:
