Joebot Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Wow, has it really been almost two months since the last Unlikely Society update?? Geez, sorry about that. But this chapter is a doozy. It's ten pages (double the length of most chapters), and it has tons of special effects. I got some new Photoshop filters that I've been having a lot of fun learning how to use. This one is almost wall-to-wall action! It's the penultimate chapter of the N-Vasion story arc! I really like the word "penultimate," and it seems like the only place it ever gets used is in comic book solicitations. Anyway, please check it out and let me know what you think!! -Joebot Quote
Inertia Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 The special effects are great, I love this comic strip, it's hilarious... But my favorite character was killed off so early... Poor Pepperonus! Quote
Dragonator Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I love the special effects, very well done, and the brick built red dragon is awesome! That is of course my favourite build (as it would be), but some of the other scenes have some cool details as well. You've done a great job on the scenery, and the comic has some funny moments too.

zero1312 Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Well done once again, Joebot! Finally I see the "cat" dragon as a whole. Very well built. Quote
Jipay Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I so wish that for once they get the credit for saving the world and kick the imposter's megablocks ! Well done episode. Quite surprisingly, the delay wasn't that bothering, I think the fact that you stoped the previous episode at a crucial moment helped me chaining that episode to the last one. Well built, and nice to see some action ! Punch on ! Quote

Thanks! I've been thinking about replacing my brick-built dragon with the red dragon from the Skeleton Tower set. I like my dragon, but it's awfully big and bulky.

Punch on ! Maybe someday they'll get the credit they deserve! Thanks for reading, everyone! Quote
Hinckley Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Excellent work, Joebot! Those Superiors make me so angry! Can't wait to see the final chapter! Quote
Joebot Posted June 3, 2008 Author Posted June 3, 2008 Excellent work, Joebot! Those Superiors make me so angry! Can't wait to see the final chapter! Thanks, Hinckley! Yeah, the Superiors are jerks. It's funny though -- Terrificman isn't that far off from the way Superman was portrayed back in the 40's and 50's. If you've got some time to kill, check out a website called Superdickery. They've got tons of actual Superman comic covers, showing all the ways that Superman was a huge jerk. They're bizarre and hilarious. Quote

Me and my friend killed ourselves laughing at some As for the comic, I read all these the other day, I must say fantastic work here! I love Mr Fister the best. Sparkles is also great. You have excellent photoshop skills as well, with great, crisp clean photos. And of course the story is excellent, you manage to get the whole ball rolling quickly from the start. my one criticism is the character Joebot, mainly because to me atleast he seems like a ripoff of Marvin, unless this is intentional as an homage? Anyway, fantastic work! I'm off to read the classic comics, looking forward to the next one! Batbrick Away! Quote

Anyway, fantastic work! I'm off to read the classic comics, looking forward to the next one! Mr. Fister is my favorite too. He's so ... uncomplicated. I like to think I'm walking that fine line between "homage" and "rip off" with Joebot. I'm a big Douglas Adams fan, and yeah, Joebot is definitely influenced by Marvin. I hope you enjoy the "classic comics." They make me cringe a little bit when I go back and read them. We were totally making that stuff up as we went along. Some of the panel layouts are messy, and I didn't yet know how to do word balloons very well. Maybe someday I'll publish a George Lucas-esque Special Edition version, and clean them up. Quote
