Question: Story vs Strip

<< < (2/4) > >>

tasteslikeevil:
Personally, I find that I tend to like story-based comics more than I do gag strips. Gag strips are capable of giving you a quick fix, but the ones with story and character development offer you the real meat and potatoes, y'know? I think as long as you stick with it and keep on pumping out a quality product, popularity will come with time.

Also, I decided to check out your comic and I think it's some pretty rad stuff! So cheers!

*blush*  Well thank you very much!

SuperPablo13:
I checked out your comic and it looks really good. I've gone through the first few comics I'll probably come back to it, but right now I'm sifting through all the links in the comic pimping thread. I wish I could manage stories in my comic, but I don't do the art so it's pretty limiting. I also prefer the story based comics to the one gag ones. It's nice to have a mix, and since almost everything is free on the internet, nobody is losing out on trying new things. I've always been a story fan and it's tough trying to come up with a gag in each comic all the time. I just prefer there to be a point to everything.

I enjoy a good mix as well.  Some humor here, some story there, all making for a well balanced reading list.  Of course, I guess that's kinda obvious by the fact that I'm here.  If I didn't like amusing comics, chances are I wouldn't be reading QC, would I?

I really admire funny comics, tho.  I cannot for the life of me write humor.  At least, not consistently.  And definitely not every day.  So I am amazed at how some people, day in and day out, can manage to produce a good, amusing, product.  I tip my hat to you, you funny people out there.

dingosatemybaby:
I'm the opposite way.  I can cram a funny into a strip (sometimes two) with  ease, but that story arc stuff is killer.  I mean outside of comics/GNs you've got a limited space to advance the story, keep things interesting and, in QC's case, not only slip in a funny but make sure it doesn't derail the story.

I bow to you, story-arcers (cue "real american heroes" music...)  If I can do that one day I'll be a happy man.
