life sucks!

[arcade999]

we are living in an awful, absurd, grotesque and stupid world full of crap, so why not making a comic about it?

episode 1: arguing with idiots


I mean, it's not even like if it worth it or something

[Cedur]

I hope you're not too serious with that.

The philantrope claiming "the world is beautiful" will also find plenty of evidence for his theory. The truth is not on any side of the coin.

new comic
neat

well the "like you could do it better" argument is the kind of stuff that makes me instantly hate someone

[erkyp3rky]

Ah yes, the old "ur gay" arguement destroyer.

[xDestroy]

this comic should be sticked

[ADMAndrew]

People like that are not lacking in this world

[Snessy the duck]

next episode should be about SJWs.

[arcade999]

Thank you guys for giving attention to my comic. It's really appreciated.

episode 2: irresponsable parents

next episode should be about SJWs.

thanks for the suggestion; I'll think about it

[Cedur]

being in contact with digital media from the age of 1 or such ... that's quite a challenge for the future generation. I'm already talking about friendly apps that are labeled as "playful learning". It can work out if a little kid still gets enough real-life stimuli - things to see, to smell, to taste - and I can only hope these will remain the main content of early childhood for anyone born these days.

The moral of the story is that life truly sucks.


Do more please.

episode 3: pernickety star wars fans

1: Oh, yeah, you mean, the thing I apologized for like days ago. In my star wars comic, I even asked what I could improve. I sure did rage and I shoudn't'v done that, but hey, try to swich paradigm sometime; can you really blame me for thinking people wren't getting the joke of my comic? I was in a moment of confusion. As I said, being angry wasn't the good way to act, but mocking the dowside of my work is probably the worst way to deal with the problem imo.

2: I never, but NEVER used the ''you cannot criticize because you cannot do better'' rhetoric. I never using such shitty fallacies like this and oh, and have I mentionned it's totally out of context anyway since my comics aren't even well known whatsoever?

3: What with the red text everywhere, reference to the ''cringe'' episode when I explain I cannot do good comics at the moment because I am on my mac, and the creen then get covered by a red text saying ''cringe'', but I don't understand it in the context; mocking grammar errors or something? As I said, mocking is probably the worst way to deal with the problem.

4: what's wrong with the guy? Is it that the guy has no point.... ? I don't get it. Also what comic are you mocking right now, arcade's aventures or life sucks? And I would really appreciate if you could make a contructive comment rather than MOCKING.

5: Ok, so now we REALLY get into whole new magical world with what seems to be a... retarded guy screaming? Uh, ok. Next we have a screwed-up plan of a guy saying he has no arms and... what the hell is even the background. What the hell is even the context. Last of all, we have two last sketchs, the first one appears to be a bunch of stickmens running saying ''oy'', and the last one is uh, a scene with, then again, fat stickmens running everywhere in what seems to be a much richer city, wich I assume went to the McDonald or something. Oh and I forgot, they are all saying ''eh''. What even is that thing; mcoking the arms I drew? Me screaming? Uuuuuh, a denounciation of capitalism?

Wait, how is that even relevant to my comic anyway.

[RudeGuy]

do you make these with your left hand or something

[FireyPaperMario]

episode 2: irresponsable parents

That totally describes what so screwed up about modern gamers imo

[arcade999]

episode 4: ostentatious signs

That totally describes what so screwed up about modern gamers imo

more likely immature 12 year olds insulting people online lmao

do you make these with your left hand or something

That's a pretty silly remark; you are talking like if everyone were right-handed. There is also a great total of 0% of constructivity within it.

I thought I would step in and offer some constructive feedback on this comic series, considering you flamed both Aero andd RudeGuy for their comments.

My first major point regarding the comic is that I think the jokes and punchlines are often lost or misconstrued because you are not completely fluent in English. Take episode 1 for example:

episode 1: arguing with idiots

I mean, it's not even like if it worth it or something

At first glance I didn't even completely understand the joke. I had to check the comments before I knew what was going on. It's not your fault that your English isn't perfect, but I feel like you should have either a fluent or native speaker check your comic for you before you post them. Unless part of the charm of the comic is supposed to be that it's full of grammar mistakes?

---

My second point is that I feel like they don't often consist of any joke. Episode 1 had (albeit a very poorly explained) punchline of "ur gay". I get that it's funny to say "ur gay" but there are a range of better punchlines you could have used which better illustrate the fact that the character is pissed off and doesn't want to argue about it any more. Even a simple "shut up" or "fuck off" sits better in my mind.

Big-ass images: show

episode 2: irresponsable parents

episode 4: ostentatious signs

To be honest you haven't really gone the right way about these two. There has to be a visual element as well as a pun which is immediatelly recognisable in a single-panel comic. Episode 2 is almost a commentary on a stereotype based on a political opinion. South Park does this very well. The comic does not. It's too vague of an idea to fit into one panel. Episode 4 is based on a word that even I had to look up (I am 20 years old and native English). Also it doesn't??? make any? fucking sense??? What's the joke in it??
See some better examples here.

Finally, I think you need to learn to accept feedback (in whatever form) on your comics. Maybe you were upset by Aero's parody of your comic. I think it's the funniest one in the series so far because there is a punchline. But it is no way to reply with a five-point angry message without trying to understand why he might have posted it.

Also, now I am going to reply to some of your responses.

In my star wars comic, I even asked what I could improve. I sure did rage and I shoudn't'v done that, but hey, try to swich paradigm sometime; can you really blame me for thinking people wren't getting the joke of my comic? I was in a moment of confusion.

That's because people weren't getting the joke in the comic. You even admitted you raged.

I cannot do good comics at the moment because I am on my mac.

This is not an excuse LMAO macs are most often used for graphic design. No one is criticising the art style (that's another thing for another day). What Aero was criticising was your imperfect English and the state of the comic.

Ok, so now we REALLY get into whole new magical world with what seems to be a... retarded guy screaming? Uh, ok. Next we have a screwed-up plan of a guy saying he has no arms and... what the hell is even the background. What the hell is even the context. Last of all, we have two last sketchs, the first one appears to be a bunch of stickmens running saying ''oy'', and the last one is uh, a scene with, then again, fat stickmens running everywhere in what seems to be a much richer city, wich I assume went to the McDonald or something. Oh and I forgot, they are all saying ''eh''. What even is that thing; mcoking the arms I drew? Me screaming? Uuuuuh, a denounciation of capitalism?

It's referring to Hawkeyeone's comic. Spoiler: it's shit. It had no punchlines or jokes other than pointless xenophobia.

That's a pretty silly remark; you are talking like if everyone were right-handed. There is also a great total of 0% of constructivity within it.

Fun fact! Left-handed people make up 10% of the population. The implication here is that it looks like you're drawing them with your non-dominant hand. It's a criticism of your art style.

---

TL;DR MY MAIN FEEDBACK POINTS:
- Either improve your English and learn from your mistakes, or have someone read the comic before you post it.
- Make sure there is actually a joke in the comic.
- Find an art style to make your comics more aesthetically pleasing.
- Learn to accept criticism in all forms and don't bother replying to them to seem clever.

That's all the feedback I can offer. Please do not ignore it. I am not attacking you.

[Thehelmetguy1]

I am actually going to point out that Arcade already sent some comics to me, however I ignored the grammar. I basically am already used to arcade's lack of fluency on english so I don't mind it as much as others would. So you should blame me as well here.
