My FanComic RE-Redux! - "Adventurer"!

Post by Big Momma » Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:32 am

Hmmm...let's see. Since I really don't feel like typing out another synopsis, I'll just copypasta from a post I made awhile ago:


----------

Explanation:
"Adventurer" is about a young saiyan boy who travels the universe looking for the "mystic dragonballs".(A little bit on the cliche' side, but oh well. That's what this fan stuff is about.) They are like the regular dragonballs, but are much different. Instead of spreading throughout the world when they are used like the regular ones, or even throughout the galaxy like the black stars, these go throughout the entire universe.

When he was just an infant, the Adventurer's parents were killed by an evil tyrant. They were killed even before they could name him. Raised by a family friend, Adventurer decides that he will not have a name until he can avenge his parents. He trains on the war-torn planet that the tyrant has ruled over for 15 years. Then, the tyrant attacks and kills once again all of Adventurers loved ones. Remembering what the man who raised him said about the "mystic dragonballs" he decides to travel the universe to find them, and restore the damage that has been done to his home and so many others. Along the way he travels to many other universes in a "Kingdom Hearts"-esque story.

Here's some back story; This isn't the first time I've posted this Fancomic up...in fact, this is the 3rd time(Hence the RE-Redux...I guess you could say it's kind of like an...."Adventurer KAI" type of deal :P), haha. I've just been so busy that I haven't been able to work on it. Here's the deal, though, I'm not redrawing the first few chapters(Well, not yet, anyway) so the art is gonna be pretty crappy at first, but don't worry. I'll start in soon with the recent art, and I'll be sure to let you know when!

I've discovered my main problem, as well. I tried to put out a new chapter every week, and this simply isn't possible with my current schedule. So I'll just be uploading the pages as I get them done(Hopefully I'll be able to at least get a few every week like DBM does).

Anyway, I was sure to have at least the first chapter done before uploading, so without further adieu, chapter one of "ADVENTURER"!

NOTE: It reads right-to-left, like the typical manga format (I don't really do any of my other comics like this anymore, but I didn't really feel like flipping everything. So I'll keep it like that for this, haha).

Sorry for the double-post, but I figured it'd be fair to show some recent work, so you know what you'd be expecting with the redrawn chapters. This is something I just drew today:

It's not a finished page, just a little draft.

Sorry I haven't updated with any pages lately, but I do have a small sketch I did:

It's the main character plus a bunch of enemies that will show up later on.

Holy Necro-post, Batman!

Sorry, but I didn't think I needed to create yet another thread on this.
Anyway, I finally got around to updating again with some of Chapter 2. And I've gotten to the newly drawn pages!

You should be able to navigate through the pages by clicking the arrows. Pages 3 and 4 are where the redraw starts...but I goof'd and they read Left-to-Right, as opposed to the rest of it which reads R2L.

I really want to check this out but my work computer blocks deviantart.com :( I found the first page on the first post hilarious. I read it from left to right, so it seemed that 2 kids where charging at eachother with everything they got, and then next there's a baby playing with a butterfly. The baby's face is priceless! I'll make sure to check it out at home. Or you could PM me chapter 1 if you don't mind.

Ah, I see. Well, thanks! I'll get to work and see if I can't set something up. How about photobucket?

Yup. Photobucket works just fine. I never got a chance to check it out at home yesterday.

This is essentially a minor nitpick, but I still think it's something that you should be aware of. "Adventurer" is written as "アドベンチャーラー " in Katakana, not as "アドベンチャーラ".

Ah, thank you. The one thing that confuses me about Katakana is knowing where to put those dashes >.>
