Anyone here make CoH Comics?
Well, I did try, several months ago. Ravenswing wrote a few pages of script to get us going and I roughed out a few pages of layouts, but it all got back-burnered when other work (the sort that people sometimes pay me for) stole my time.
Still, it's reminds me that I should try and get moving again...
IIRC there were quite a lot in the old "Creative" section of the late European forums. Good luck tracking them down, because whoever built this place forgot to read the spec and neglected to offer a map...
Hey all. Was wondering (now that I can communicate with people across the sea... technology JUST now allows us to do this, you know) if anyone makes CoH related comic books?
Anyone make any or have made at least one in the past? |
All issues freely downloadable via www.udsg.co.uk as a ZIP file containing each page as a PNG. Extract before you view or sometimes it wont display certain pages correctly in the 'preview' manner.
Each has been a labour of love and the stories revolve around my SG - Ultimate Darkness and our associated enemies and allies. Its also quite different in that it is all 100% from the villain perspective. Even the 'likable protagonists' are to actually be despised if you read all of them. This is all my own brainchild with everyone I get involved having their own little say in what they add.
Also you'll notice the first 2 solo stories are a bit cack both in appearance and approach. I was still finding my style and learning the apps I use for it at the time. When I came to write Darkbow and Usurper (still ongoing) I had a clearer overall view and plan for the longterm with tie-ins all over the place to the other stories and plot threads, as well as ingame canon. Oh yeah, and I won a NCSoft Creative Genius Award last year for Usurper 3 "Prophecy".
Catchup with the stories thus far as the finale of Usurper is coming soon...
And thats probably one of the longest ways of answering 'yes' to your question lol
(PS. Bring back Creative sections properly!!!)
EDIT - oh yeah and it would seem that I lost the 'Custom Forum Title' that I had previously as an award from Creative Genius - great forum transition....
Looking over your work. Looks good. What font did you use for the Sea of Stars btw?
And I am guessing you are using Comic Life?

But yes, the main editor I use is ComicLife Pro (on OSX Leopard). I use a few other apps too. I use iPhoto as my organiser with a handful of freeware apps for minor tweaks. I also downloaded a ton of font packs and individual fonts too. I forget which ones See Of Stars had but they were all defaults (ComicLife's and OSX Tiger's defaults). Nowadays I download new fonts as and when I feel it appropriate for the specific lettering customisations I do for each individual named character.
Also for reference, later in the year I intend to probably get a license for ComicLifeMagiq in order to allow even greater possibilities and options giving me 2 applications to create that which I want.
I take it you are trying to refine and master your own comics stylisation? If theres any queries ya have - do just holler here or on PM mate.
I already PMed you about something. So check your pm box.
As for the rest, yeah I try to pick up as many tips as I can. I have both CBC and CL. I wish had a mac so i could get comic life magiq. Looks really nice and it would be so cool to have that editing software...
Anyways, check your pm box and get back to be through that please.

I'm not sure if he's still doing them but Chase Arcanum did two of the comics listed on the main page, the I-12 was a joint work between him and Cinder Flame. I bet he's got some tips and stuff.
I can PM a link to this thread if y'all want.

Theres a number of other EU comic writers around but I know many let their projects die alas.
Oh, thank you but I already know of chases work. If you look at the www.cohcomicindex.com link I put in the first part of the thread, some of his work is there (as is mine).

I think most of the American dudes post down in the Fanart section.
