But lady liberty, I'm the land of the free!
I read about the patriot act and the NDAA, you're nothing but a phony!

You have the freedom to do what the neocons tell you.

I don’t really want to do a comic addressing this because then it shines and odd light on the whole thing. The reason Amber is talking now is that I felt, as a writer, I committed a lot of web-comic cliches that I disagree with. One of them being the female of the comic is just there for 1) fan service or 2) to be a bitch or 3) to fall in love with the geeky main character. I hate that shit.
Amber didn’t talk in the beginning because I didn’t write her any lines. Not on purpose I was just like HUR HUR FUNNY JOKE DAVE AND PSY DAVE AND PSY and then people were noticing a pattern of…Amber never spoke. Then we have all that weirdness of cycling through a female lead blah blah blah - fast forward to today!
I want Amber to be part of the group and a girl. I don’t want her to be part of the group but a girl. Her gender should be secondary to her interaction with the main characters. I have plenty of female friends and they don’t come out and shout I AM A WOMAN mid sentence. Except Gina. Weirdo.
I dunno maybe I’m taking this whole web-comic thing too seriously but I really feel like I did a disservice to the female cast (and audience) of gg-guys and having Amber just kind of start speaking like it’s not a big deal is what it should be. Vs. a 12 part mini series on why Amber spoke or didn’t speak.
That's retarded. The whole fanservicey aspect started going away once people started noticing she was silent and it was an improvement of the character.

Well what the hell's the point in a webcomic if a hot chick doesn't fall in love with the geeky main character? See EGS, Deegan, Twokinds, QC, etc etc.

No, that's just a comic describing British politics and how anything further than centre left is radical now because the debate has been redefined with the extremes 'fascism - far right - right - centre right- centre - centre left (rarely)' since the 1980's.

Well. That's not actually what it's describing. But it could be. It's a well known fact that the debate changes over time, I mean if I said interracial marriage is no good now I'd be far right but 100 years ago that would just be common sense.

C'mon, Raizy. You write such good characters, but your exposition sucks.

I posted a while ago about how Namco is resurrecting old IPs as web comics. And now they got other web comic artists to do comics for Dig Dug's 30th anniversary. It's kind of strange really. But cool though.  Also, whoop, at least one of them remembered/knew the guy's name is Taizo Hori and not "Dig Dug" or any variant thereof. |
