Borrowing from another topic Im trying to make my own series but first need to know which idea to go with. You get to vote on these three here, they dont have names yet though.

First: Cold-war thriller, think x-files & 'men in black' but set in the 1950s

Second: Investigation into the dissaperence of everybody living on the floting paradice city. Lots of biblical references and a giant crash

Third: Superheroes. Starts with the death of one, the mysterious company that runs the city, origon conspiracies - this one would turn into many different runs, some darker than overs, with drugs n stuff. Always wanted to see a superheroe on drugs

First: Eh, sounds kinda played out Second: You lost me at 'biblical references', but the idea is sound...Considering something similar happened in Roanoke, North Carolina Third: Sounds a lot like Watchmen...

Fair enougth, but ther shoudn't be too many biblocal references causes I dont want to get smited, the Deamon/Angel creatures are never statted as this and could just be alien.

I may do a taster for all three...

Ok, tommorow I shall write a comic about 'ace-of-spades93' and then upload it over the week, but what shall it be about. That name reminds me of 'Hitman' a bit, like hes version 93 or something.

I guess TC never heard of green arrows sidekick(forget the name,speedy maybe?) who was a heroin addict,harry osbourne(the second green goblin) used to drop a lot of acid,and as discussied in an earlier thread Cloak and Dagger were a byproduckt of experimentation with drugs. So really the one not done to death idea in no 3 actually has been done.

My mistake, I was thinking of Normon and his experiments. Back on topic though, what can 'ace-of-spades93' be about.

Honestly while i do not care for the biblical Idea,I think spazz is right about the island idea being the best. the only time I have really seen anyone explore that beyond speculation about Roanoke is the Stephen King mini series,storm of the century,but no one aqctually went missing so your idea is quite different. If you are any good it could be unique in a genre over saturated with heros and "quirky" titles.

That depends on how you see it, I was planning some other surrounding stories about some of the characters, and the 'Moon', but cant tell you that... and it is meant to be more of a floating city in the sky rather than an island, but same principle. It also has elements of the tower of bable...

So, im decided to make a comic based on 'Ace_of_spades93' who said I should make one about them. Instead im just unsing the name and come up with these three new ideas.

  1. 'Ace of Spade's' is one of thirteen assassins who decides he wants out and has to go after the other twelve. It sounds similar to the frnch In my versioseries and game XIII which I have never actually played the campaighn of or read. Also the Bourne identity springs to mind a bit. In my version thoughthey protagonist has full knowledge of himself and the other twelve.
  2. This is mainly a jumping off point for my third idea. 'Ace of Spades 93' is aclone and on the most wanted list, thus being the Ace or so. This story has less room for expansion as even though he is a clone, and there are possibly other assasins and clones, Ace is only a name, rather than been linked to a full deck.
  3. The expanded version of the above, still a clone, this time their are 12 other clone cards, each with a specific trait/skillset/expertese. The face cards will either be clones or actually people in charge, and with idea 1. there will be 3 other suites around the world.

I really hope that you're writing in this thread isn't representative of your actual writing abilities.....

Anyway, it's really difficult to say which to go with here.

Is there any way you could type a few more details about the second and the third options? I'm not really biting on to the first one. Either way, read Queen & Country much? If not, you'd probably enjoy it and it'd inform your writing.

With regards to the superheroes/drugs thing, that's sort of being touched on by Warren Ellis in his limited series "No Hero," which is currently at issue 4/7. Also, the second options sounds a little too much like the "Left Behind" novels. This is why I'm hoping you'll give more details on both these options.
