The Ask Jeph thread
Somethingfake:
I read from time to time about a song called "Freebird" is it really as bad as you seem to make it out to be?
jeph:
--- Quote from: Bearer ---what nationality does Martin hail from? We all know Dora is Italian, and, well, I guess we don't know about Faye's Heritage either... Well, yeah... also, what company made pintsize?
=P
kinda obscure, but, whatever ;)
--- End quote ---
He's American.
--- Quote from: Switchblade ---Uhmm.... who do you think your greatest influences are when it comes to your writing style?
--- End quote ---
Chaucer and whoever wrote Beowulf.
--- Quote from: nescience ---Where did my life go wrong?
--- End quote ---
Those murders were a mistake.
--- Quote from: Iwan ---Long, obsessive and creepy but I'll ask anyway...
Things I've noticed
Marten mentioning Belgian monks who brew their own beer.
Somewhere lambic-ish beverage mentioned in a news post.
The OCD girl is called Hannelore...
So, how is it that you know more about Belgium then most non Belgian folks?
Also, why do the shopkeepers laugh at you in a guitar store when you play "Stairway to heaven" as try-out?
--- End quote ---
I am an endless repository of random knowledge.
They're laughing because you're playing "Stairway to Heaven" in a guitar store.
--- Quote from: Inlander ---So I have this friend, and sometimes when he's with a girl he just can't get . . . aroused, and he wants to know: is this normal?
--- End quote ---
Hurr.
--- Quote from: LiterSize ---How far along with the story are you in your head? Were the backstories formed already when you started qc?
--- End quote ---
I'm months to years ahead in my mind. They weren't in my head when I started.
--- Quote from: ChaoticEvil ---Well there be any interesting Cameos from Pizza Girl in the near future?
Am I wearing my socks?
And what colour are the walls of the room in which you (most of the time) draw QC?
--- End quote ---
Maybe, maybe, eggshell.
--- Quote from: rawrXskittles --- Why do fools fall in love?
--- End quote ---
They're fools.
--- Quote from: Switchblade ---Agreed. Knock it off.
oh, and by way of a question: did the spartan lack of belongings that seems to afflict Faye and Marten (seriously, where are all the CDs and stuff they supposedly own?) arise out of a storyline need to reflect their lack of funds, or was it originally just plain laziness at not wanting to fill every frame with all their crap? Or an amalgam of both?
--- End quote ---
Yes.
--- Quote from: Weird-Edsel ---QC has a lot of plots going on now. I assume you let the "characters do the writing", but have you ever thought of a plot that you began to write but scrapped because you thought it wasn't that great? Lets call them the lost story-lines. I tend to do that sometimes. I end up starting over.
--- End quote ---
Yes.
--- Quote from: Octillus ---Is it just me or has Raven changed tremendously?
Like I understand the reformed goth thing, but it just isn't even close. I can't picture goth raven flashing her boobies. And I don't remember her being that ditzy either.
Then again I think she was in 3 strips before she became a serious addition, so i dunno.
--- End quote ---
Her character changes the more I write her and figure out what I think she's like.
--- Quote from: Luke ---Jeph - are you familiar with the music group "Doves"?
--- End quote ---
Yeah, they're pretty mediocre.
--- Quote from: Manta Ray ---Empire or Jedi?
--- End quote ---
Night Elf.
--- Quote from: Storm Rider ---WHY DO YOU SPELL YOUR NAME WITH THAT INSUFFERABLE 'PH'?!?
GEEZ
--- End quote ---
Because I am somewhat pretentious probably.
--- Quote from: rawrXskittles ---Switchblade & Kid Modernist: Okay.
Jeph: Have you ever considered writing a book? I'd so read it.
--- End quote ---
I've done just enough writing in my life to realize that I don't particularly enjoy it and probably wouldn't be a good novelist.
--- Quote from: practicality ---If you couldn't be a webcartoonist, what would you want to be?
--- End quote ---
Independantly wealthy and idle.
--- Quote from: rawrXskittles ---Jeph: Do you enjoy answering the silly questions as well as the serious questions?
--- End quote ---
More than I enjoy people getting all up in each others' grills on the intertron.
--- Quote from: Somethingfake ---I read from time to time about a song called "Freebird" is it really as bad as you seem to make it out to be?
--- End quote ---
Freebird isn't that bad, but yelling for it at concerts is retarded.
La Creme:
1 question, 2 pleads:
1) Are you going to make what you think Marten's band music would sound like and post it and things? Cause that would be a pretty cool thing.
2) Please please please please please please make an "I <3 Suffering" shirt.
3) I think you would like The Sugarplastic. I am trying to spread their word. They have gone too long without recognition.
Give 'em a chance. 4 minutes of your time.
rawrXskittles:
Have you ever heard of Honeywell (the band, not the company)?
IronOxide:
As you have made the comic, do you find you progressively take longer to make a comic because of the improved artwork and writing, or it takes less time because of your experience?
