h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Why didn't you just SAY Christopher Walken? That man is engraved on the back of my eyelids. Did you draw that Legion, Legion? Because it's very very good. I'd love it if you ever fancied taking a crack at the other characters.


As far as making anyone look like their real selves, that's possible, but I'd need pictures. It's been a long time, and we're all so grown.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

BTW, if anyone wants a copy of Wally Wood's 22 indespensible comic panels, they should email me. My email addy is up on the Gaia forum, under the first announcement.


xxoo

Ah, I know those panels. Think I have a link to them somewhere...

As the Australians say - wollah.

I drew that Legion, indeed, and I'd be happy to have a bash at some others. I think I know exactly what Hally wants, for one, having been the cause of his...thing...for Mr Hyde. I'll take a look at the other descriptions, doodle a little.

Yes. I also have a cleaner clearer one


I'd love that, Legion... anyone else too.. I'd love for us to be able to have different artists.

Legion, I'm quite certain that you do know what I want for Hally. Hally is basically me crossed with Mr. Hyde. Mr. Hyde is like, I dunno, my idol, or something.

I've added more functionality to the site, with a drop-down jump menu.

I should point out that the whole thing is dynamic, and will actually require very little maintainence, or effort to add a comic. I'm not sure why I felt I should point that out, but there you go.

And now, suiting word to deed...

Wollah. Hally in a typical pose.

I sort of like being impish, actually!

It works out. Espoecially when I'l apparently chopping bloke's heads off and sitting on rocks and whatnot.

Also: Yeahhh, we need to hang out and stuff.

ALSO: I would love to take a crack at this whole comic thing, if everyone can handle lookin' all manga-fied and PRETTY. (That's just sort of how I roll, dudes.)

Manga's cool, too. :D

We'll eventually have to settle on a style, I imagine, but for now, run! Run free!

*Sprints around, waving arms and laughing.*

I think each story arc can have a different artist, and a different storytelling style, but within the story arc it will be the same illustrator.

Yes! Please post your go at it!

Legion, that's pretty much perfect, right there.

I know. I even included a statue of Uncle Joe there, like a genocidal little angel on your shoulder.

Multiple artists sounds great. Be interesting to see more than one take on each character, and since we all seem to be such talented swine it gives us all more to do.

Yeah, we just have to keep it canon... so everyone can be recognized, like.

Yes yes yes yes.

We were all contributors to the original story, anyhow. We might as well do ARTSY things as well.

And sell t-shirts.

With US on them.

At conventions.

Like this one.

WE WOULD //KILL//, GUYS. (Also they have alcahol at this convention. Which is a //major// plus.)

It doesn't hurt that it's near you either, hmm Jade?

Although, I admit, I like that one, because it's nearish me as well, now.

Fan-flippin-tastic! How fun! I knew I was too young to be this damn old.

You would kill guys? *worries...*

There was a comma there.

Yes I'm still here. Looking good so far.

How about car bumper stickers? 'E-vil Onboard' just seems to roll off the tongue, don't it? Or maybe 'Antichrist Onboard', with a little baby silhouette with horns...

Whatever tripe people would buy, I'm all for. Plus also, barring the antichrist one, I'd put them on my guitar case.

I have seen an antichrist one before.

I did not think it was that clever,actually?

Have we decided on a format for the comics?

As in length, colour/B&W, etc?
