Round 3-Jamez5000 VS Zebbs

[Far]

Have some fun or don't. Don't care either way.

[Zebbs]

I'll go first, I've got a pretty good idea

[Con-Con]

Can't wait to see this one.

[Jamez5000]

Thanks Zebbs, I'd like to go second for a change :D Good luck!

[Cheesymaroon]

My money's on Jamez.

[ne3]

Mine too.

[Zebbs]

Here's the first comic of round 3. Took long enough.

My character stole Relaps' hat 'cause it's badass.

[Soul]

Shouldnt it be "to much juice"? Either way nice comic I guess.

[popl8]

A very random comic, very strange indeed.

[Killer Carebear]

Why does your character get to wear the Relaps hat? It was funny, but not amazing. Nice work.

[ne3]

It's ok Zebbs, although it doesn't look like he is putting the spoon into his mouth, more looks like he didn't hit his mouth, really. I do love how you draw Jamez character though, looks like that cute dragon blubber thing from that old bubble game. where you get to a big cat in the last level of niveau 1 or something.

[Plasma]

Bubble Bobble. I think.

[ne3]

Yes it is, thank you!

See what I mean? Looks a little the same :fmita: .

[Zebbs]

Well, at least you got the idea that the spoon was meant to be entering his mouth. Also, I used to play that game all the time and I never saw a resemblance. They do look similar apart from the eyes and the feet and the arms and the claws and the cheeks and the tooth and the belly. :fmita:

[ne3]

It has the same shape. Now shhh. :stone:

[Zebbs]

+The game was called Bust-a-move!

[MistyTehMoose]

It was bubble bobble first, then puzzle bobble, the bust-a-move bought the rights to it a couple of years ago.

[Jamez5000]

I'm at work and like any good worker I spent time doing other tasks, such as my comic and I decided I would draw this one out. So when I get home (in about 2-3 hours) I'll upload it ..and I guess you guys can view it's viewity.

[Jamez5000]

PS: My character is actually goo, not a slug-like-dragon :)

[MistyTehMoose]

That's wierdly adorable.

[zimbobimbo]

Jamez, you are a GOD! :christ:

Artwork is brilliant, and I can't believe no one else thought to douse the fire dude.

Keep it up!

[Zebbs]

The artwork was top notch! I love how my character was drawn, also. Although I think the water was a bit predictable but still, great turn nonetheless.

[Derelict]

No one thought to put salt on that slug?

[Tyler_Legrand]

It's not a slug.

[Jamez5000]

Going to work soon, was hoping Zebbs would provide me with something to do at work :P

[Jamez5000]

It's not a slug.

thank you :)

(I guess it's my fault for adding the tail-like movement at the beginning, was just trying to show movement differently to add more dynamics to the character)

[Zebbs]

If it's not a slug, the what in Gods name is it? :)

I'm having a tough time trying to get my character out of this water-tight situation.

[Jamez5000]

If it's not a slug, the what in Gods name is it? :)


As I mentioned above the comic it's "goo". :)

[Mr. Crow]

His name is Slugula and he is a slug and I don't care what you say. :mad:

[Pyro]

Anybody in the world would say that he's a slug, why deny it?

[ne3]

I'd still go with Bubble Bobble cute dinoz.

[Derelict]

Yeah, his name is Slugula. SORRY FOR BEING CONFUSED. :mad:

[Jamez5000]

Yeah I didn't name it, but I went with it :P

[Zebbs]

Here you go James!

[Hats of!]

Where is fun?

[Zebbs]

Over there.

[Con-Con]

I didn't think it was great to be honest.Sorry Zebbs

[Zebbs]

I think it needed more catchy one liners and better art. It's OK Cone-Cone. :)

[ne3]

It wasn't really funny, but I loved the art and the creativity that you put into it. Good job, Zebbs.

D'oh.

[Jamez5000]

I rushed this, took me about 15-20 because my girlfriend was getting on to me about being on my computer...even though I clearly was drawing! (at my desk! :P

[PyroOwned]

I loved the "durrrrrr" on Relap's grave. It just got me. I love your art Jamez.

And the "I R DRAGON RAWR!" on your second.

[teh_kyle00]

James, both of yours were awesome and I loved the art. It was creative too. Just throwing that in there.

I R DRAGON!

[hzac]

I really wish you didnt rush the second one james (damn girlfriends :argh:) but it turned out great. Sorry Zebbs but he got this one.

[Far]

[Soul]

Sorry zebbs but Jamez had you beat from the moment you were pit against him.

[Zebbs]

I didnt realise he would come out with these awesome, freehand paper versions. I voted for him.

[Godly]

Jamez gets my vote, mostly for art, I personally didn't find the comics very funny...

[Dodger]

Jamez art was awesome, but the only thing that made me chuckle was Relaps' grave, so he gets my vote

[Urser]

I loved the way Jamez drew the Pyrobug! Woo!

[Zebbs]

Now I can start my ideas for the next one, though hopefully it won't be too soon. That would kill the novelty value of it.

[I_Smell]

I voted Zebbs because I really hate Jamez's character. I can't imagine his future comics being very different from what we've allready seen.

[azunder]

I didn't vote. Though both were well made, i didn't really find either funny.

[Zebbs]

Oh, my pride.
