Bleh, sometimes it hurts when I see so much of this...
I decided to go over the lists just to see how other creators do...and...Ouch. Sometimes I forget how many people do this, and I'm reminded how tough it will be to just plain enter into this field...
Whats more is, seeing so many hits on the top comics; especially the one that just crushed my soul. It's rough, and it has me thinking "how the hell am I going to do this?!" I know my art s-t-y-l-e [gamespot! stop censoring this!!!] isn't as great, or original as some of these, and that drives the nail in harder... it's possible that the only thing that I'll be really differentiating myself with (I hope) is the depth or everything. I like to think that I'm putting more depth into my plot and action sequences than others will be; yet, who knows? It's kind of hard to look at all of those comics thoroughly...
Guess the only thing I can do, is hope and continue these pre-date PR tactics here (and maybe start some elsewhere). I guess I can take to heart the fact that I'm pushing to have things ready before everyone else. It's obvious that those that update frequently are very successful and popular...but still...
UPDATE FOR NEW USERS [and those that just wanna catch up]
Hi, I'm Scott Deisner!
I'm currently working on an online graphic novel that I hope to launch soon [maybe by the end of september]. It's going to be seven books in total and each book will probably contain somewhere between 25 to 30+ chapters. You can view a couple teaser images in my images tab here on Gamespot. I plan on differentiating myself as an online comic creator by having massive, intense, off the wall action sequences, by trying to have a proper balance between drama action and humor, having a great deal of depth within my plot, and most importantly: UPDATING ON TIME AND 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK. What is coming up next week is what will probably be the biggest reveal about my book series, a four page teaser [that I refer to as an action strip], and something else...
Feel free to view the first time I revealed info about my book in these guest blogs by Thomas-Crown and theycallmeryan:
Thanks, and hope you guys enjoy reading my blog!
