I Like My Weird
Hello everyone!
Just wanted a bit of an opinion.
I'm typically a fan of Science Fiction or Fantasy genres, but does anyone here enjoy love story comics that have no fantasy concepts?
I only recently hatched this idea for two artists falling in love in a big modern city and it's honestly the first story I've written in over 10 years that doesn't have some sort of Sci-fi, or fantasy edge to it.
Do you think people would be interested in reading it?
Eh....there's a market for it, but I'm not it.
Granted, I'm not a big fan of the romance genre. Sci-fi and fantasy usually has romance as a secondary feature.
Yeah, same here. I always told myself that if I ever did a love story, it would need to be, like, at the end of the world, or something. Of course, then a love story crept into my suburban fantasy slice-of-life...
I just can't find myself interested in a straight-up romance. Or anything that's just "Normal people," really. I need that touch of the bizarre. I crave abnormality, I guess.

Have you written other comics before this one?
Yes... I'm great at starting things I'll never finish.
Why do you suppose that is? Just too much else going on, or...?
gonk
Might as well get in on this.

How long have you been working on your current comic?
Four years on one, about five months on the other. Which makes me feel sad that I only have about 24 pages on that newer one... but I guess it'd be worse if I only had 24 pages in 4 years, huh? Hahaha... ah, I'll get better at it soon though.

Have you written other comics before this one?
Yup. Quite a few, but one I've actually finished! So yay for that.
Emerlia
Is there a planned end in sight with your current comic?
About a month left on Gary the Alchemist. Power Rush I actually want to run for as long as possible, but I do have a plan for the ending, and hopefully it will be epic as balls.
Emerlia
Any plans for other comics after your current?
Um, well, after Gary the Alchemist finishes up, I'll focus solely on Power Rush, but I do have plans for things if I can find an artist. I mean, I love challenging myself with all these different art styles I want for certain stories, but sometimes I just feel like... I just want it to look good, you know? And I can't always promise myself I can do that.
