What's up With That? comic series (with webpage)

I started work on a simple little comic series last week. It's basically just odd, perplexing, amusing, or just plain random thoughts that come to my mind written down in a 3-4 panel comic format. Nothing spectacular, just one of those 'check on once a week for a quick interesting read' sort of deals.

Just don't ask me why the hell out of anyone did I use Boober Fraggle of Fraggle Rock as a medium. I may just have to aks myself one of these days.

I've worked up a backlog of ideas and plan on releasing them one main comic a week (probably sunday evenings), along with a one-panel 'Random Thoughts' comic in between weekends. The good thing about this series is that it's simple enough to churn out a comic almost as soon as I get an idea, and therefore stick to a regular and reliable schedule.

So while I work on devising a main 'Latest Strip' page, quick FAQ, and old strips page for the comic when I start it up on Sunday, I'm posting the first two here. Consider them last Sunday's and yesterday's comics.

Superb! Though, in most cases the "?" means more clarification is required, at least when I use it.

That's what I always thought too...

It would be better if you could find Boober in other poses than that.

I actually find the fact he doesn't move to be half the charm.

Besides, everything else was barely 150x150 and wouldn't have given me any useful variety. So I stuck with the 2 largest clear images and let the focus be the text.

Oh, and "?" is still just a punctuation mark. "Whatcha mean?" would be a the least one could say to ask for 1-2 full sentences.

But most of the other comics aren't nitpicky.

Yeah, he doesn't have to move because he's just talking. I agree that it adds charm to the comic and it works well, graphically.

Mid-week, time for a new Random Thought. Coincidentally enough another food-related thought.
