Climax Comics

Hey everybody. I just started my first weekly strip a couple weeks ago, and I'd like people to check it out.

If you don't like swearing or some questionable situations, then don't read them.

Thanks a lot!

Congrats on the launch man. Good luck. What made you choose blogspot as your host just out of curiosity?

[donboody]

No reason in particular. I've never done any kind of blogging whatsoever, so I just kind of picked one.

[Rob]

Cool. There are better choices. If you are interested let everyone know. I'm sure many a suggestion will be made.  ;D

The first one was sick and twisted. Which of course makes it awesome. My first, knee-jerk impression is that this is the kind of thing that would have been perfect for MTV's Liquid Television, if it were animation. Keep up the wicked work!

[donboody]

Thanks a lot, Charlie. I'm updating every Monday, so be sure to check back for more twisted fun!

NEW UPDATE!

ALSO: due to popular demand that I stop goofing around with blogger and run with the big dogs over at traditional webcomic navigation, you can now read www.climaxcomics.thecomicseries.com

Not the re-vamp I had originally advertised, but the best I've got for now. Hope it satisfies!

[Rob]

It does navigate better but the presentation, I think, makes the comic a bit smaller than it probably should be.

But still, congrats on the upgrade.  ;)

[donboody]

Yeah, it's still kind of small. I'm having a hard time making the strips bigger without making them look all pixelly and gross. On it, though.

If you're worried about pixellation, you should try drawing bigger/scanning in at a higher resolution and shrinking the comic down to web size rather than drawing small and scaling up.

About 800 pixels wide is good for most screen resolutions, and I think professional comics artists draw at about 150-200% of publication size, so if you start out with the original image at 1,200-1,600 pixels wide that'll tighten up the lines a bit when you shrink it. Just remember to make your letters bigger to compensate for the shrinkage.
