New Around Here??
Well hey there! Welcome to my www dot comic, Buffet of Lies! There’s a lot of comics on here, and the early ones are a little unfocused, so you might be looking for some PLACES to START. Well, the way I see it, you have three options.
1) Start from The Beginning! The comics you’ll see here are pretty different from the ones on the site now, but they go down pretty easy, and the comics’ evolution can be pretty fun to watch!
2) Start from The Wonderful World! Here’s where the comic as it is now started to take shape. It’s still finding its legs, but the basic, rough elements are all pretty much there.
3) Start from Some Crummy Cryptid! This one’s just my favorite.
But before you get started, why not take a look at
~THE CAST~
MISTER SAD
Mister Sad is a talking green lump, standup comedian, and the mascot of this comic! That’s him, up in the logo!!! As you might have guessed, Mister Sad struggles with depression and anxiety, but he’s been doing a little better lately, with a little help from his friends.
PENNY AND SPENNY
Penny and Spenny are a couple of stepsisters from just around the block. Spenny has a proclivity towards solving supernatural mysteries, and tends to drag Penny along on most of them. They care about each other a lot, but a lot of the time Penny is unenthusiastic about Spenny’s interests, and Spenny is inconsiderate of Penny’s feelings!
Just like your crummy siblings!
CINDY THE MAYOR
Cindy is, well, the mayor of Danson, a town located in a remote valley, somewhere in Wyoming. Cindy is sharp as a tack and recklessly impulsive, much to the chagrin of her assistant, Benny, but she really does care about the town and its people, and I can’t think of a better person for the job. Can you? (If you can, please leave a comment on this web zone)
THE CAPED COD AND ECLIPSE
The Caped Cod and Eclipse are a dynamite crime-fighting duo who go way back, mostly because Cod raised Eclipse. Cod is Loud, Brash, and coming your way, while Eclipse is considerably quieter (read: he can’t talk!) and more thoughtful. They got their issues, but hell, what family don’t?
“TENDER RHYTHMS”
You ever see a fella so fit for crime? Quick-movin’, sly-talkin’, and friendly to a fault, here is a man who’ll rob you twice before lunch and use the goods to get you somethin’ nice. Then he’ll steal that, too.
Tender Rhythms ain’t his name, but damn it if ain’t what he’s called.
TYRONE AND TIM
Tim is a headstrong Police Detective who came from ~circumstances~. He’s got a lot to prove and he intends to prove it. Tyrone is a big friendly lizard, who also works for the police!
They’re the original odd couple!
NEMO
Nemo is a duck.
SOME OTHER CHARACTERS!
I’m going to level with you here. There are a lot of other characters. Like, waaaaaay too many to go over on this page. So why not get reading, and find out who all of the rest of the dudes and ladies in this comic are!
~Enjoy!~
Hooray! You finally have a site! I’ll check in as much as physically possible, Alex!
Well you only REALLY need to check in Tuesdays and Fridays.
Also comments on the about page are a kind of silly place to have comments I may have to get rid of comments on the about page and, by extension, your comment.
Nothing personal.
So you think we shouldn’t be able to comment here? I don’t think you should be like everybody else, Alex. I think you’re BETTER than that.
Well I mean I just didn’t think there was a lot to say.
But if people like commenting here then what the heck.
Your art is awesome, but the comics aren’t that funny. If you want some ideas you should email me.
I’m glad you like the art, but I’d feel kinda weird if anyone I didn’t know/wasn’t me was writing the comic.
I appreciate your patronage, tho!
Ignore Drew, I checked The Whole Internet and couldn’t find his hilarious and universally celebrated webcomic anywhere! Full disclosure: I did not check Internet 2.0.
We (the rest of the internet who is not Drew) need better webcomics, and I like your style. The humor is good, I laughed at most of them.. Which is better than 98% of webcomics out there. Keep going man. We believe in you! *wipes a tear*
Throw some advertising up on this mofo, and I will try to give you hell of clickthroughs when I check back.
The ART is better than 98% of web comics out there.. I just feel that it’s being wasted. Sometimes criticism is what you need…
Man you’re still snoopin’ around here being an ass, huh. Well no one wants your “critique” of “make me your writer please.”
There are issues with some jokes, and I’ve told him that straightup as a good friend. Until you’ve got something real to say, Drew, shut your trap.
I’m not being an ass, you’re all just overly sensitive. And I did have something real to say. I even gave him a compliment.
I’m “snoopin” around because I love art and I’m waiting for the comic itself to get better.
Hey, protip, sunshine: “your comic isn’t funny, e-mail me so you can turn my awesome ideas into comic strips” isn’t constructive criticism.
Picking a specific strip and explaining what’s wrong with the humor is constructive criticism. What you did is obnoxious self-aggrandizement, which is why everyone is telling you that you’re an ass.
