I've always wanted to make comics but I kinda suck at it. Mainly writing them. I think I can write okay but writing a comic is different and I have yet to write one of those well. So anyone out there think they're good at it? Might want to try collaborating with someone on a short comic sometime.

FA+

The one character I do have I already have semi-written a story for but my dilemma here is that I cant turn it into a comic well. And it also doesnt have an ending. Not even a chapter ending.
And guaranteed to get views is not the most important thing, although that would ofcourse be a nice bonus. But I think you are correct about those things being very popular in this little community of ours.
What I'd like to get out of it the most is experience with comics.
What I like is; action, humour(only good humour though =P ), adventure, sci-fi, history (well certain periods of it).
What I disslike is; romance, cliche fantasy (you know, medieval with orcs and elves, like in WoW), teenagers (Even dissliked stories about teenagers while I was one).
Personally, I think I can say I like almost all forms of sci-fi, with my favorites being Blade Runner style dystopias and HeavyMetal's level of bizarre-ness/borderline mutant combination of Frank-Frazetta and Princess of Mars.
Thinking about these things makes me wish I had more time to read sci-fi stories :(
And what I dont really like is when its just cliche fantasy reskinned to seem like sci-fi (Princess of Mars, blegh, hated it. But that was also because I didnt think the guy could write a proper story, it was his first ever novel so I might give one of his later ones a chance sometime.) =P
Oh and I also like a lot what today would be refered to as steampunk. But I mainly like the stuff from before they felt they had to add annoying punks into it =P See my hatred of teenage characters rearing its head? hehe
In any case, sounds like the ideal comic story would be about aliens or robots fighting space nazis (well some kind of space fascist that is) ;P
how does future cops sound? traveling the solar system to catch interplanetery badguys on moons and stuff?
Gotta say I'm not sure what it is you want specifically, but there's always room for more swemu art and sci-fi, having both of them together would be like cake and strippers to me lol.
As for comics, I've done them myself. I have a clear understand of composition and storytelling. So I could help, if you like?
And in what way do you think you could help exactly?
Guidance and proof of concept. I am not sure how well versed you are in drama or the subtler arts of story telling, but yes all these things have to do with comics. Along with actual expecience in drawing comics, on and off for several years now.
