Comics ahoy!
Jan. 30th, 2005 07:35 pmI'm not much into comics, either online or hardcopy, but I think some of you guys are? (Meg/Matt/Liz, maybe? Sorry, I don't have a reliable memory, so forgive me if I'm way off base!).
A chap came and posted this on Kansas. It's basically an online beautifully rendered colour comic - looks *exactly* as if it was drawn for print - which is labelled a space opera. It has cool aliens, space ships, gun fights etc etc. The characters are all original, though the chap says he was influenced a bit by the feel/humour/whatever of Farscape. It is NOT Farscape but I can see where he is coming from on this. It has grreat touches of humour that remind me of FS.
I'm not sure how long it's been up and running, but there are two chapters of roughly 16 pages each. I think the idea is that they get up dated whenever a new one is finished. And they look incredibly detailed to me. I don't have much to compare them against, (not being a comics gal) but hey, I was impressed!
So, here's the link in case anyone is interested in what I've just waffled on about (oh, it's official name is Wayfinder):
