I'm working with Druu on a super awesome comic system that will do everything I want. Prototype soon (I hope). Basically, the system I have in mind will allow us to post comics out of order. So, we could put up some Twin World images, and then later go back and put some lead up or history "before" that the timeline. It will also let us elaborate on any event. So, for example, we could have a single "battle" image, and then later add a bunch of panels "inside" that battle to show exactly what happened. This should free us up a lot to keep adding whatever kind of stories and panels that we want. We can put "goofy" stuff in the "goofy" sections of the story, without throwing off the overall story (since posting order is not viewing order). If done right, it should allow us to revolutionize webcomics, which, up until now, have been "produced" in the same order as they are supposed to be "read" which is quite silly when you think about it.

Comic Format

I'm working with Druu on a super awesome comic system that will do everything I want. Prototype soon (I hope). Basically, the system I have in mind will allow us to post comics out of order.

Layout of Website

I think it would be really fun to have multiple skins, or appearances for the website. One skin for the "normal" world, plus a "Zarth" skin, and a "Faiery" skin. We could work the below ideas into another skin, the "characters" skin, where each major character has a themed section of the website.

Character options for general layout.

  • Hugh: the graphic novel
  • Oswald: fan interaction
  • Zack: store
  • Ziggy: blog

An old paper I found: Ziggy

  • Hugh - Comic, Story arc
  • Oswald - Competitions, puns, randum stuff, audio, podcasts
  • Zack - Awesome stuff, social anecdotes, zombie stories, response letters
  • Ziggy - Text, more stories, real stuff, reviews, blog/rant

The idea of having interaction with readers (even if we don't have very many) is great. Stuff like answering questions about world lore, or doing pun contests, or featuring fan art.
