Perhaps even soft-covered theme booklets would work without a major expense up front. A collection of Ray's materials. Or stories from the Dude and Catastrophe. Small items that would be little more than fancy saddle-stitched print-on-demand pieces. Also, I work for RR Donnelley, but I don't think the volume and size would merit our fancy Custom Point web store for on demand ordering, etc. However, there are certainly smaller outfits out there that would be willing to do on-demand printing of small saddle stitched booklets. And readers (me) on these forums who'd be interested in dropping a couple of bucks on each.

Spillane posted:it is AMAZING how you all assume I hate achewood because I offer criticism instead of talking about how i want to gently caress teodor for being so right all the time No, retard. But you don't post in this thread, and then come in here making GBS threads on the comic and everyone in the thread, barely taking the time to use punctuation, and scream at everyone because they disagree with your opinion and therefore can't read comics, can't read your posts, and are stupid and wrong. Honestly, the point isn't that you are wrong. The point is.. what the gently caress is your point? This is a thread where people who like achewood talk about achewood. You're coming in here, I guess, to tell us that we shouldn't like it as much? THANKS! Please go away.

The latest CH arc wasn't of the caliber of the GOF obviously, but it made me think of it while I read it. I only started reading within the last year, so I ran through the old material like a freight train.. but the new stuff I'm obviously getting in real time. What reminded me of the GOF is that the arc started and developed from entirely unrelated things that should not lead where they lead. The eventual book with the arc in it will start with Cornie writing trashy harlequin novels and somehow lead to Roast Beef in the karma machine, just like Todd pitching nuts lead to the GOF. I guess what I'm saying is.. nobody puts out a solid diamond every time they open their mouth, but I haven't found a comic that I have enjoyed anywhere near as much as I enjoy achewood, and I am still excited every time there is an update or a fanflow update (like the latest note from Nice Pete, even though I thought the fellow was dead). edit: faulty memory, but I think he still should've made the hat. http://achewood.com/index.php?date=01182007 glug fucked around with this message at 13:52 on Oct 16, 2009 |

Panic! at the Fist Jab posted:Maybe the fanflow contains strips that cater towards this. I don't know. What I like in the fanflow is when there's basically a script of some situation or interaction between some of the characters. It's the kind of thing that could easily be a multi-comic small arc of sorts, but with more depth and all at once. Rather than seeing a few months worth of one story play out, you get a little mini story like a movie scene in one go. Usually they are just the kind of mundane things you're talking about.. Ray walking in on Teodor cooking, guys sitting at the bar, etc.

Sgs-Cruz posted:It seems many people here are like me and are in such a hurry to see what happens that they don't pay enough attention to the details. Spot on, you are correct. Thanks. Looking at the next strip, he's clearly sitting on the same bench-style back seat as Phillipe, and you can see an object in front of him that is more likely the headrest of the drivers seat than it is a steering wheel Ok I'm just retarded and it all makes sense. And yes, he's concerned about how a very old lady can have a five year old, and is about to discover that Phillipe is Five Years Old and this is a true thing forever. glug fucked around with this message at 15:05 on Apr 10, 2010 |

Chris Onstad posted:Would Cavender's Greek Seasoning be at home, say, on poo poo you're sizzling up for gyros, or roast chicken, or...? What's it compare to? I know nothing of it, however a fancy health-foodish market that used to carry a ton of spices and spice mixes in bulk jars had a greek seasoning mix that was awesome. We'd throw it in black beans when we heated 'em up, and they also made scrambled eggs into scrambled awesomes.

My wife and I do that all the time. "Look at Phillipe open his mouth, it's so disgusting!" and then making the face. She's about 7 months pregnant, and now her belly button is starting to make a Phillipe face. What I'm trying to say is, I love that particular comic.

As far as sucking someone in, I think the GOF stands well on it's own, especially as a nice tactile book in your hands. I had a guy reading the beginning and before he even got to the comic part he was asking if this poo poo was REAL

Happy Hippo posted:Where was this referenced again? I've heard 30 as slang for porn, as in XXX being Roman numerals, but is this a drug reference? In the new Ray's Place announcement it was mentioned: (Caveat: If he's "all 30'd up" when he answers, we will try to put a "30" before or after his answer, but he may deny whether or not he is "30.") And then there's a question (maybe only in the premium one) about it.

poor and weird posted:I'm not saying it would be better if it was male on female rape. I would still think it's inappropriate. And I didn't say Onstad was doing it consciously. But the "sex-crazed pervert who tries to take advantage of any straight guy" is a pretty old stereotype and not a very good one to invoke. A better comparison would be "what if it were a black male character trying to take advantage of a white female". If you don't think that has unfortunate implications, then welp, I dunno what else I can say to you. Seriously? He's an old dude. He happened to be gay. His late night started out with a naked man drawing pictures on his stomach and standing in front of him. It then turns into him being almost killed, locked in the back of a van with another naked man. Assuming the second man was gay was not a stretch. And then pulling a "gently caress it we're all gonna die" isn't a stretch.

In other unrelated shirt conversation, if you shop at Abercrombie and Fitch it is assumed that you are a pedophile and also enjoy being assaulted by terrible cologne. In fact, they assume this if you just go to a mall that happens to contain one of their stores.
