Today begins a week long improvisational comic project presented by myself and O of CommissionedComic fame. The goal is simple: Every other day, for a week, we each take a turn improving a drawn response to the other’s previous days work. Some of you may remember me doing this with Len some time ago.
This time, O and I have a few ground rules that are different: Each of our installments will be pencil only. They will be two panels long each day, and the entire run of this improv project will be 7 days. Next Tuesday, it will fall to Obsidian to create an ending. If this goes well, and serves its purpose (which is mainly to give us a fun challenge, and work together on something cool), then you can expect new runs often.
For now, I give you day one, drawn by me, for the epic story that is: “Fertastico!”
I am so waiting for this!
When I was in high school me and 2 of my friends did something similar. There was a single sketch pad that we passed around and created a joint-comic with. The rules were that we could only draw one panel while we had the book, and it had to actually respond/relate to the last panel before it. After 5 months we had the funniest and most random comic ever.
(I wish I knew where that sketch pad was! o_0 I have only one page of it in my possession (why? I don’t remember acquiring it). It’s like a quest marker, somehow. Some random bit of crap in my inventory weighing me down.)
Just how many projects are you doing now? (For some reason, I have the image in my head of a bunch of Scotts running around from computers to drawing tables.)
The last one was a “to be continued”. So are you gonna finish it?
Did you read the post, Bud?
Words allowed? I think it would add an interesting twist if they were not….
words are allowed, but you are right about that, and we have talked about that too. It is up to O tomorrow so we will see.
Not this recent one but the one you did with Len some time ago.
Awesome project, you should do a 4 way: Scott, O, Brian and Len, now that would be the mutha of all comic sharing projects!

Brian would kill it the first round.
Bud: AHH! Yeah, that one. Probably not. len got so much grief from everyone that I doubt he would want the abuse. I still don’t get why people did not like his contributions. I thought it was a blast.
This sounds like a fun challenge for you guys! I can’t wait to view the next one. Nice job!
Too bad. I liked the bizarre-not knowing what happens next-theme it took on.
You should have your readers finish it (or add to it each week). You could pick or have people vote. But that would probably take up a lot of time and energy.
I’m going to criticize you every step of the way.
LOL! I am getting requests for a four man job…me, Brian, O, and Len….we might explode the universe with such a thing.
Bud: This will be the same sort of thing.
I’d be open to doing a 4 man comic strip. As long as people understand it’s an EXPERIMENT and it’s improv art.
“Fertastico” I see what you did there.
Hey Len! Yeah, I liked the Len/Scott comic you guys did a while ago! I don’t know why everyone was so down on it?!?
It’s pretty much like “The most AMAZING story ever told” done by Killfrog, Joe Cartoon, Camp Chaos and what not ages ago.
Personally, i love it. Ressurect the original one with Len as well i say! that was good. What happens to Mr Ford and the floating eye?
I just read the previous one just now… loved it. People just don’t appreciate talent at times if you ask me.
Looking forward to what this brings.
