Avengers Assemble And Then Have Intercourse!

by James on May 17, 2012 at 12:01 AM
Posted In: Comic

In the past 5 years there has been an outbreak of superhero pornography parodies. One of Gentlemen may even be an avid fan of these parodies (name them and congratulate yourself). Well in being a purveyor of many a nerd news website I came across some comments that disturbed me. Comments stating that this is out of character for these specific characters to fornicate. How dare they make certain people “team-up” and what about Mary Jane!? These people are forgetting that this is porn and the story is the least of the directors concern. Dear other nerds, how about pretending that this is an alternate reality tale?  I personally look forward to the inevitable Aunt May Doc Ock honeymoon parody.

 

Also you may see an invasion of two other webcomic characters in today’s comic. The green haired one is Bearman who is doing a charity contest over at his website. If you mention his site or character in a comic he will donate some funds over to some worthwhile causes.

 

The little bastard doing the damage to Bearman is a Frump and this comic is pretty much a call back to the guest comic Saeed did for us last month. Right now the Frumps is a weekly comic that will move to 2 a week if you like their Facebook page. So go over and make this happen!

6 X 2 Questions with J. Babb The Creator of JBabb Comics

by James on May 15, 2012 at 12:00 AM
Posted In: News

JBabb comics is another web comic I recently found through Twitter and instantly fell for. Jbabb has an old school feeling to it that makes me wish I could write as well as he does. His artwork reminds me of what a comic strip should look like with his well detailed panels that he sometimes brings to life with animation. Everything I like about webcomics is right here in Jbabb Comics. I can only see more greatness to come each week to come.

The OG: In 2010 what made you want to start doing a weekly comic?

I’ve always wanted to do comics – I’ve been doodling random comics and cartoons for as long as I can remember. Despite my love for it, I was really critical about my art. I didn’t finish much of my work, and I only showed what I did do to a few good friends.

 

Luckily, one of those good friends met up with me in early 2010. After a few beers and pleasantries, he gave me an ultimatum: Start a webcomic in less than a month (and don’t miss an update for at least a month after that), or he’d come to my house and beat me in my sleep (and yes, he was serious).

 

So there you have it: the threat of physical violence helped me get over whatever artistic fears I had and actually start my comic. Violence can be a pretty good motivational tool.

6 X 2 Questions with Kevin Coulston The Creator of Stale Bacon

by James on May 1, 2012 at 1:00 AM
Posted In: News

One does not read web comics without knowing of Stale Bacon by Kevin Coulston. Kevin’s comics are absurd joy that decimates pop culture with quick wit. His characters are simple humanoids that bare witness to many vulgar tragedies that other web comics may not tackle. Stale Bacon is over 300 comics strong and will continue to be on the forefront of comics in my opinion. I have read many a Stale Bacon comic and gotten pissed off at myself for not thinking of what he writes myself. Stale Bacon is easily on my top 10 list.

An Obscure Gentlemen Banner Contest

by James on April 27, 2012 at 3:37 PM
Posted In: News

When redoing the site we learned that we can have multiple banners rotate through. In doing this we sat around and came up with different genre costumes to make our characters as (up now: casual Gentlemen and superhero Gentlemen). That being said we are leaving one banner up to the fans. The banner that we choose will be created by Aaron and posted in our rotation. If your suggestion is chosen you will also win: a handsome Obscure Gentlemen mug or  Obscure Gentlemen T-Shirt of your choosing and a cameo in an upcoming comic. All just for wanting Trevor to dress up like a dildo (or whatever you would like to see him as). Entries will be accepted on Facebook and the comments section below. Contest starts now and ends at the end of May.

6 X 2 Questions with Eric & Glenn The Creators of Inconsistent Comics

by James on April 24, 2012 at 12:00 AM
Posted In: News

 Before you is an interview with two men who delight me on a weekly basis in every sexual way possible or these two men create Inconsistent Comics, one of the funniest web comics out there. Glenn and Eric deliver humorous comics that don’t hold back in any way but carefully execute set up and punch lines flawlessly. If they think it’s funny they will create it, which always ends up with me laughing. While their name is Inconsistent Comics they are anything but. Every installment from beginning to end is consistent with greatness and jokes about tumors that I hope continue on for a very long time. While I only found this comic a few months ago it became an instant favorite of mine and I made love to their archives in no time. Never has a comic made it OK to bash baby seals as Inconstant Comics has. Find out what I mean by looking at their archives after you read this!

The OG: Give me your origin story and give it to me now!

Glenn: It all started with 12 acid hits and a bad burrito.

Eric: Of course there was the acid and burritos but I’ll honour you with the specifics. Glenn and I met in grade 3 in Ottawa and have hated each other since. While in University we had an idea, drew it up and sent it to the engineering paper (they usually beg for submissions). They printed it, we rejoiced. THEN we made another the following month (The Seal Club) and it got REJECTED. I was furious and vowed never to submit anything ever again, then we thought: “If only there was a place where we could post whatever we wanted… like ANYTHING…without getting rejected…” and that’s why we invented the internet.

6 X 2 Questions with Eric & Rob Hatefarm The Creators of Hatefarm

by James on April 17, 2012 at 12:00 AM
Posted In: News

I was first introduced to Hatefarm when I was looking through some of the I Am Arg archives awhile back. They did a pretty well known comic where Arg walks in on his girlfriend and the character from Skyrim going at it. I was instantly hooked and thought, what else could these deranged fuckers come up with? I ate through their archives to find that Hatefarm is a brilliantly thought out comic that is drawn beautifully . Every week I wait to see a new comic from Eric and Rob Hatefarm, but sometimes have to wait longer since they post every other week or whenever the hell they want. If this was any other comic I would probably have lost interest but Hatefarm is different. If they posted monthly I would wait around to see what else they produce. It’s worth the wait to see well crafted jokes and art that are missing from most comics today. Hatefarm is one of my top five favorite comics and I have no doubt after you read this interview and go to their site it will be one of yours too.

 

The OG: You’re both men of varied sexual presence. What brought you two to meet and create this farm of hate?

6 Questions with Andrew Gregoire Creator Of I Am Arg!

by James on January 11, 2012 at 1:01 AM
Posted In: News

Today we bring to you the first of  6 question  interviews that I’m doing with the disturbed minds who create some of my favorite web comics. I’m starting out week 1 with Andrew Gregoire the artist/writer of I am Arg! If you haven’t read this web comic before then you are missing vulgar well thought out madness. The first time I read Arg! I had to go back and read the entire catalogue and instantly wanted to felate the guy.

The OG: Why do a web comic? 


ARG!: It’s something I’ve always wanted to do. It’s something I wanted to accomplish. I find so many weird things funny that I just felt the need to share what I think with other people. Comic strips were the ideal place to convey that. I love to draw, I love to laugh. Thankfully the two things mesh really well together. Also bitches love Webcomics.

The OG: Your artwork is on the higher end than most web comics. What other artist’s souls do you steal when you draw or who do you admire enough to place on your artist Mt. Rushmore.

6 Questions with Javis Ray Creator Of Legacy Control

by James on January 25, 2012 at 1:00 AM
Posted In: News

Much like I am Arg! I came upon Legacy Control about 4 months ago. Its humor and art style was everything that I love about the web comic strip medium. After reading every new comic from the writer/artist Javis Ray I think “Shit that was brilliant, why couldn’t I think of that?”  I’ll also allow his answer for the final question since nobody can beat a Super Saiyan.

The OG: When and why did you decide to enter the crowded realm of web comics?

LC: I had wanted to do traditional comics since I could hold a pencil, which happened to coincide with when scantily clad comic heroines started to make my wee wee tingle. I grew up, went to art school, and realized I didn’t have the attention span to do long form stuff, or for the meticulous detail traditional comics oft have. I naturally migrated towards cartooning, and traditional syndicated strips. Once I learned how few strips actually become syndicated, I pretty much gave in to the fact that I was going to be a graphic designer. I am embarrassed to say, I only found Penny Arcade 5 years ago, and didn’t even realized that  webcomics was an option. So about 2 years ago (a little more) I started working on getting Legacy Control crackin’. I finished 40 strips before I launched, and they all hit the web at once on April 25th 2010.

6 Questions with Mark Stokes Creator of Zombie Boy Comics

by James on February 22, 2012 at 1:00 AM
Posted In: News

Mark Stokes is an exceptional individual who created one of my favorite web comics, Zombie Boy. Originally, Mark created Zombie Boy in 1987 in comic book form. Take a look at his website to see the difference between Zombie Boy then and now. This comic mixes the supernatural world and comedy seamlessly. I’ve never been a fan of voodoo-related stories but Mark has a way about writing that brings me back every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. His unique art style and cast are memorable, to say the least. His comic overall has a touch of old school comic strip class that lacks in our comic and most others today. Mark was also classy enough to include a bonus image of the Gentlemen and Zombie Boy as the JSA, take a look at the end of this interview!

The OG: Zombie Boy started out as an indie black and white comic book in the 90s. What made you decide to move Zombie Boy into web comics?

Mark Stokes: This year marks the 25th anniversary of the character Zombie Boy, I self-published my first book back in 1987. My next book, Zombie Boy’s
Hoodoo Tales #1 came out in 1989, then I did Zombie Boy Rises Again in
1994 and finally had a one-shot Zombie Boy issue published by Antarctic
Press back in 1996. After years on hiatus, not drawing or even thinking
about him, I began to notice all these other Zombie Boys popping up all
over the web. There’s this guy in Canada that is tattooed up all over his
body who goes by the name Zombie Boy and about a half dozen comic books
with that title. I figured I wanted to take the name and character back,
so I revived him once again as a webcomic. I wanted people to know the
original Zombie Boy.

6 Questions with Sareen Akharjalian Creator of Ink On The Side

by James on February 28, 2012 at 11:34 AM
Posted In: News

Ink on the Side is a weekly comic created by Sareen Akharjalian from Beirut, Lebanon. Sareen’s style is reminiscent of classic comic strips that I enjoy. Her subject matter doesn’t go for the cheap laughs by being overly vulgar (much like us) but instead she tells stories that are close to her but relatable to anybody. Each week I’m delighted by each comic she creates with Sareen adding unique spins on ordinary problems.

The OG: You’re one of the first web comicers that I’ve talked to on the internet that doesn’t come from the US, Canada, or the UK. Living in Beirut what comic strips or webcomics inspired you to start creating? Or were you inspired by something completely different than comics?

Sareen: First of all, it’s really exciting to be interviewed by a fellow web comicer! So I have to thank you once again for including me in the list of people you’re interviewing!

6 Questions with James Grant Creator of Crazy Sunshine

by James on March 13, 2012 at 10:50 PM
Posted In: News

Through InkOutbreak I found I am Arg! Through I am Arg I found another wonderfully offensive yet brilliantly done web comic called Crazy Sunshine. Crazy Sunshine spilled out of the insane head of James Grant, a madman who dwells in the shadows of Japan. His comic is brightly colored and will give you diabetes with its power and majesty. He knows when to be vulgar and when not to, making Crazy Sunshine a balanced comic that I’ve become a lifelong fan of. Now stop reading this intro where I’m apparently felating James and find out more about this comic you should be reading.

6 Questions With Saeed Faridzadeh Creator of The Frumps

by James on March 27, 2012 at 12:00 AM
Posted In: News

Let me start by saying that Saeed Faridzadeh the creator of the Frumps is a great fucking web comicer to know. Like a lot of my current web comic finds I heard of the Frumps on the Twxxd podcast. Saeed captivated me with tales of large British people mating through the thin walls of his apartment. While his stories were great on the podcast his comic was even better. Simple comics done with two blob like characters that are crass yet endearing. I urge you all to do yourself a favor and read through the archives as I have a few times over. I see big things for the Frumps in the future and will continue to follow this comic as I already do each and every week. 

The OG: I am well aware that you say “fuck if I know?” as to what a Frump is. Now answer the damn question what the hell is a Frump!?

Saeed: A Frump is an adorable, foul mouthed, creature.

6 X 2 Questions with Colin & Brandon The Creators of TWWXD

by James on April 3, 2012 at 12:00 AM
Posted In: News

To know class in comics, one needs to look no further than Twxxd.com. If you have run into the brothers Oliver on the social media landscape you already know what awesome guys they are. Twxxd is a webcomic powerhouse that does things a bit differently. Not only do they have their standard webcomic, but the brothers Oliver also create other type of webcomics on the very same site. Twxxd appeals to the nerd in all of us with brilliant takes on pop culture. I feel that these Canadian bastards write comics just for me, with each and every update making me wish that I could come up with some of their witty observations. Another treat that sets these gentlemen apart from other web comicers is their podcast. Every Monday I look forward to downloading their newest 45-minute-or-so conversation with other web comicers. After you read this interview, go to their website and download a couple of these podcast episodes and find out more about gaming culture and the webcomics you read. These guys work ethic and creativity make me proud to be a part of the web comics community.

The OG: What and why is a Twxxd? 

Colin:  The name Twxxd came from the game Gauntlet: Dark Legacy for the N64.  For those who haven’t played it, it was this horrible mindless hack’n'slash game made great by the four player co-op mode, a relatively rare thing in those days.

When a player wanted to start a new level, they had to stand on the appropriate glowing circle on the hub map.  All players had to move to the circle in order for the next level to start.  So if someone was taking their sweet time getting there, or just being a dick, the game would remind all involved that someone wanted to depart by saying something like “Green wizard is read to exit”.  Except the audio quality was HORRIBLE, so for the longest time, we thought the guy was saying “Green wizard is really Twxxd”.  It became a thing.

6 X 2 Questions with Gary Cohen & Mike Shea The Creators of Mallville Rules

by James on April 10, 2012 at 1:00 AM
Posted In: News

Mallville Rules is Saved by the Bell with Superheroes if Saved by the Bell wasn’t a pile of shit and had clever writing. Being a fan of comic books I have come to love these characters from their original incarnations done by creator Gary Cohen and their more recent versions with art from the great Mike Shea. I first came into the Mallville Universe when I was attacked on twitter by Mr. Cohen’s always on point humor. He smacked me in the face with his verbal genitalia and ever since then I’ve become a big fan of Mallville Rules. Listen to these two masterminds talk about their creation and how they may one day murder each other just for sport. Do yourself a favor and follow these whores in all manner of social media they hang out on.

The OG: What brought you two bastards together to create the Mallville Universe? Love or some other sordid origin story?

 

G: Well, I’ve been writing about the characters in Mallville since I was in high school. All of them are based on my childhood friends. I did Mallville solo for about 9 months. But it was just too much work. And I can’t really draw which is a distinct disadvantage.  I put an ad on Craigslist and found the most amazing artist. But that didn’t work out. So, then I found Mike.

M: I had some downtime between my MOMA retrospective and my upcoming re-paint of the Sistine Chapel so I figured I’d give this whole comics thing a shot. Gary lucked out with the timing really.
