Art --- The Narrative --- ( A Comic By Modern)

Yeah, profit and merchandise should not be anywhere on a priority list so soon, unless absolutely necessary

 

Done.

Basically it's a daily gag thing drawn by this former NASA roboticist so it has a lot of science and math jokes. And you can't really read through all of them quickly as there are 2,000+ pages. However there's a great other comic from the same guy called What If, this thing where people read him weird questions (i.e. how would the economy be affected if a printer literally printed out money, if everyone on earth pointed a laser pointer at the moon, would it change color, etc.). That's relatively short (150 pages or so) and they're pretty funny to boot. They also involve more science and math.
The reason why Coolfood referenced xkcd to alt text is because every comic in xkcd (And every picture in What If) has an alt text sentence or two, which is sometimes funnier than the comic itself.
The link itself is xkcd.com, but some people prefer to use companyname.website.

 

Wait I have actually seen What If O_O

 

In today's comic, I do something I must do in every comic I will ever make. Have characters jump off balconies.

 

XD
Also, maybe get rid of the coming soon under the title and switch the default page away from the coming soon?
a waste of a perfectly good page though... :(

 

Update on character list. Spoilered cause why not.

Spoiler: Character list

So the current characters we know are:
Main Characters in Binary Moon:
(In order of Modern's Sig.)
Daniel Hall (Have met and is the main character) (Chapter 1 Panel 3)
Melanie Dursgrove (Have met) (Chapter 1 Panel 9)
James Kleptofan (Just met/seen) (Chapter 1 Panel 20)
Samantha Thompson (Just met/seen) (Chapter 1 Panel 20)
Holden-Schmitt

Support characters:
Ms. Erlenmeyer (English Teacher)

Unknown placement:
Narrator (have met) (Prologue)

 

I'll change the actual art to something else, but keep the comments. It's nice to have a sort of buffer page at the begening

 

The question is: Does this make you an artist, or a writer?

Almost met all the characters that we have a name for.

 

Both? I'll just form a "comic maker" revolution.

Actually, there is a name for everyone seen. The blue haired kid's name is disclosed in one of the Alt-Texts

 

Okay, Added him.

 

rip
you should make lucas play an important role later
make the kid no one knows be the hero!!!! c:

 

Lol, Lucas is based off of a friend of mines brother, as a joke. He will have a little significance later, but not much now.

 

I need to start a petition to make Lucas a major character

 

tbh, most important part of the story

 

I actually didn't notice Melanie's arm before...

EDIT: wait no shit that aint Melanie...

 

I've got a few complaints that in the most recent panel Daniel is acting quite out of character. I have two responses to that.
1) You have seen 20 panels of him. Is that really enough to judge a character?
2) He just jumped off a building. That throws people out of their element.
3) hl3 confirmed?


Well anyways I think this is a good time to say where I want to go with this in the coming summer. Lots of new info is coming very soon, and the first chapter ends in about a month. After the first chapter, I will either move into one of the other storylines, or continue another chapter of Binary Moon. Its pretty far away, but Ill probably have a poll here to decide that.

________________________________

No wonder you didn't notice it then!
That's Samantha. You can call her Sam, but unless you want to be punched by a robotic arm do not call her Sammy.

 

Should Samantha be added to the character list?
Also... Ms.Erlenmeyer sucks.... only got a kill count of 3...

 

Yes, I thought she already was?

We will soon cut away from the main crew, but lots of questions will be answered

 

OHhh... for some reason I thought the arm was Samantha... I'll just sit in the corner...
