Dipswitch.

[alienmastermind]

Hi!

I write and draw Dipswitch over at PlayItReviewIt. In case you'd like to take a look, it's a comic.

Not just a comic, it's a quite-well-done gaming comic, which is much rarer than you'd think. I recommend you guys check it out.

[alienmastermind]

Hey, thanks. I try my best. I'm getting better at it. The one going up later this week is probably my best one, I think. :)

I'm glad you like it!

Quality! Where were you when we needed cartoonists for Evil Avatar Comics? ;)

[Slack3r78]

I will also chime in and say that Dipswitch is rather good.

[alienmastermind]

As for EvAv, I didn't actually know about the comics area! But, it seems like a moot point, as I've found a home at PiRi and CoG. You guys are really supportive, so, I hope you like this week's comic. :)

That's awesome, you're comic is great. New comics should be posted on the front page as news...

[alienmastermind]

You know, it's the front page when it comes out...usually Tuesday and Thursday...over at PiRi.

Glad you guys like it!

Hahaha. Nice. Just read through them. Loved the sackboy one. :)

[alienmastermind]

Sackboy...Christ, what gets into these people's heads? Or, do they just not go to public schools and learn things like 'Wii is what you do when you take a piss' or 'Sackboy sounds like a gay specialty pornstar'.

Japan also sells used undergarments in vending machines. *shrug*

[pomeroy]

Impressive. This brings the count of gaming webcomics I like up to two.

[alienmastermind]

What's the other?

What's the other?

Penny Arcade.

I'm such a sheeple.

[alienmastermind]

I love PA. Those guys are pretty much the pinnacle of what the marketplace of ideas can deliver when you care enough about your dookie jokes. :)

I just hope we get people reading my comic.

This is now a shameless request for spamming Joystiq's Weekly Webcomic Wroundup, but only to get me into the running. I don't want to win, just being nominated would be an ill-gotten honor I could pretend to have earned.

[pomeroy]

I wonder what you would have said if I'd said "Control-Alt-Del".

;)

hate that comic so much

[alienmastermind]

Oh, and the Zero Punctuation about webcomics was damned funny. The wife had a good laugh about it, especially the formulaic nature of most comics.

But, I wonder if having a pair of protagonists is the right way to go? I have two older guys in the strip, and Dipswitch (the little 'un who likes videogames). It's just hard to have one guy standing there talking about video games. I do switch it up, and as I am doing this for recognition, knowing realistically that making a living doing this would be a sort of long shot, I don't want to be just another doofus scribbling and fart-joking his way to Byzantium.

You know, this is the first thing I've done that's been purely a webcomic. I didn't have any conception there was this torrent of gaming webcomics (both good and not so good) out there. I actually started out making snarky comics about where I used to work that were kind of funny, but mainly snarky, because my job was so tedious.

They asked us to come up with a comic for the monthly newsletter. I gave them Ninja Squad. Specifically this one, when the theme was, no kidding, 'Diversity'.

So...it's not 'Dilbert'. But I thought it was funny.

Keep it up the comic is dope. Good art style good jokes. yessir

These comics are quite well done. I like them, good job!

[alienmastermind]

Many thanks. :) If you get a chuckle, I feel redeemed about my purchase of a WACOM. :)

[Raen]

Any chance we'll get a forward/backwards button on these? I love the comics, but navigation would be nice :)

[alienmastermind]

I've created the buttons for Siraris to implement. He's on it, I guess. But he's the one that does all the site maintenance, I just draws the comix. :)

PM Siraris, or better, leave a message on the latest comic. He's under the impression no one's reading, I guess. ;)

[alienmastermind]

The new one's up. (http://www.playitreviewit.com/dipswitch)

[Goronmon]

Haha, those are pretty good. They have been added to my web-comic browsing list.

[alienmastermind]

New banner for the comic (if Siraris and Co. approve it, that is)...

whatcha think?

[Raen]

alien that banner is awesome. Understated and simple which is always a good mix. Like the tagline as well.
