That was pretty bad. Kind of reminded me of...Wow. That was pretty bad. Kind of reminded me of US-1 meets the Pumaman, except worse, since neither of them took themselves this seriously.<br /><br />I mean, we've got the whole "beloved character dead as motivation" thing, and "revenge-driven hero" stuff (as well as a truly bizarre hero gimmick) from US-1, and yet, most of the heavy lifting is done by his sidekick (a-la Pumaman.)<br /><br />I'm all for silly hero gimmicks, but there's being silly, and then there's making the hero look incompetent. Plus, it -really- doesn't work if you try to mix gruesome tragedy in with your silly gimmick in the first issue. It just leaves a bad taste in your mouth, like putting mustard on your ice cream.<br /><br />Also, is it just me, or did the scene of Scateman holding his dead girlfriend look like a ripoff of the "dead Supergirl" cover from Crisis on Infinite Earths, except bad?Tantum Ergo 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/05066362306890352470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-49093214094016232182013-02-21T05:27:22.889-06:002013-02-21T05:27:22.889-06:00So you were patient zero for this conflu?So you were patient zero for this conflu?TheFlyingPhotonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-18420164163710043182013-02-20T19:56:59.961-06:002013-02-20T19:56:59.961-06:00So...

Granted as a <i>super</i>hero it's stupid, but with the proper set-up and better handling of the execution... it could work. And as one said, the skating parkour idea sounds awesome.<br /><br />Then again, this comic made me think of <i>Air Gear</i> for an odd reason. Not sure, but it's the only thing I can think of when it comes to skating on roller-skates (or blades).Cory of PRIVATE Corphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498034843398293231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-7367451263522865812013-02-20T13:19:59.530-06:002013-02-20T13:19:59.530-06:00I know your Skate Parkour Joke was meant to be fun...I know your Skate Parkour Joke was meant to be funny and not taken seriously and it is, but I think that Idea is awesome for a video game.

I've been consistently watching your videos for at least a year and a half, and I had no idea you'd done a hilarious Let's Play of a Star Trek game. I dive to the early pages of your Blip and I'm still finding videos I've never seen before. Maybe you could post links and promote your older work on your Twitter and Tumblr, just to give you views a little boost. <br /><br />Just a thought.

But the comic...Very enjoyable live show, as always. But the comic... Even without the whole skate thing, it makes no sense from a storytelling perspective. I mean, I know you have to establish the villains as a genuine threat, but you also have to establish the hero as, well, a hero – you don't do that by having them beat the crap out of him in his first encounter, then having him need rescue (by children, even) the next time. Not saying a hero should never lose or need someone else to save him... just, not when you're actually introducing him!<br /><br />I'm going to make one small nitpick, only because you veered into my professional area for a moment there. 14:l0 – I think you mean alternative medicine, not holistic. Holistic just means treating/addressing the whole person ie taking into account other factors (like psychological, social, etc) that can affect health, along with physical ones. I'd completely agree with your comment if you used the word alternative, and it only bugs me because so many people see “holistic” as a synonym of “alternative”, because its usually presented to the world as a nice thing that only alternative practitioners are capable of. I like to believe I practice within conventional (biomedical) medicine, in a holistic way...<br /><br />... and I'll stop here before I completely lose the right to be perplexed by people who launch into a full-scale rant over one little word.<br /><br />The thing that really impressed me about this show – coughing aside, I would not have realised you were ill at the time. It still has the energy, the character voices (and some of that sounded painful on a sore throat), everything. Kudos and hope you feel better soon.Blackcat325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-49023757736095836612013-02-19T02:01:50.447-06:002013-02-19T02:01:50.447-06:00Rest easy hero, and get well soon.Rest easy hero, and get well soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13881676830017749078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-33781642097982257122013-02-18T23:33:04.819-06:002013-02-18T23:33:04.819-06:00I love the live eps, was nice to have such a small...I love the live eps, was nice to have such a small, cooperative group this time it seems with you still being under the weather.<br /><br />Very much hope you're getting non-hallucinating rest.

Whether it be an audience of 30 or 300, you bring an energy and showmanship that exhibits your history of live theater - not to mention your love of human interaction. I enjoy these most of all. They are very different from your recordings in many many many good ways. I hope to see more (i.e., you invited to many many more cons. If I had more pull, you'd have been invited to TFCon Toronto already) in the future.

This is stupid, man.<br /><br />Of course, there are worse comics than Skateman -- like Bimbos in Time, Youngblood, Superman at Earth's End, Amazons Attack, DC Countdown, Marville, Spider-Man One More Day, and Cry for Justice/Rise of Arsenal. And after hearing a comic called World's Worst Comics Award, someone needs to revive it, so they can feature all of the other comics that Linkara has had the displeasure of reviewing . . . and ones that he hasn't reviewed yet like Frank Miller's Holy Terror and Avengers: The Crossing.
