Dwarf and Ninja!

[squeequeg]

So after months of procrastinating, and working on "important" stuff, and doing "productive" work, and using "superfluous" quotation marks, here it is at last:

Dwarf and Ninja!

This is so shoddy it doesn't even qualify as a webcomic, I think. The humor's occasionally on, usually iffy, and the artwork's pretty lousy (in blurry pencil, then scanned in and poorly Photoshopped), but damn, has this been fun to make.

The comic springs from an incident in sigerson's game; the incident itself isn't important, only that the phrase "Dwarf and Ninja!" entered our consciousness. Someone -- I think it was anacrucis -- said that it sounded like a webcomic. A few months later, I was doodling during game, and . . . well . . . this resulted.

The humor is very heavily gamer-oriented, so not all the jokes are accessible. But I've used up my quota of apologies for the day, so I won't say I'm sorry.

Hope y'all like it.

It won't load for me right now.

You know I'm behind anything concerning Ninjas.

I only had time to read the first 25 or so, but this is very funny and I'm going to return to it in the morning. LOVE the meta stuff. There's nothing more fun than being in on an in-joke. hee! choo choo bear.

I like the comics!

[osirusbrisbane.livejournal.com]

Awesome.

So, will this start having weekly updates?

Er....probably not.

I mostly did this on a lark, really. I have maybe one or two ideas for further work, but that's about it. Maybe if I weren't working -- I really can't take much more time off from writing for this.

But I may do some more, and if/when I do, I'll post here about it. Glad you liked it.

See how the fan base grows!

I'm going to find you and hurt you for this.

Yes! I was hoping people would post lots of links! I want to watch this be the next big thing. :)

Also, word of advice - one of Maggie's favorite attacks is kicking the shins. Just so you know.

You were far too self-deprecating in your description! I think the art is better called "rudimentary" or something other than "bad". :) I laughed out loud in several places. Luckily, for a change, the kids didn't ask what was funny... I think they are still a little young for explanations of the intricacies of gaming - especially the meta aspects!

Kudos to 2h2o for spreading the word, though I suppose he should've asked first. Still, since the response is so positive, you really shouldn't complain!
