WoW Comic

[Masquerade]

INTRODUCTION:

Spoiler:

Hey guys, I finally found a working version of WoW Map Viewer so I'm going to be making a series of webcomics based on WoW. I tried to do this once before and actually managed to make a whole 40 page flash-based comic, but then my hard drive had to be wiped so I lost everything. I've only just now got the will to try again.

I'm pretty new here so I won't be able to base the storyline directly on the lore of Conquest of the Horde, but I'd be more than happy to include your characters in the comic as anything from main characters to cameo appearances. If you do want your character included, feel free to post in this thread with a little description, race, class, how they look and details of their equipment, and I'll see how many I can fit in. As said, though, the story will be mostly fictional and of my creation, so I'm not sure how central these characters can become just yet.

But yeah, hope it turns out alright. If it does come out well, I'll likely start hosting it online and advertise Conquest of the Horde on the site.

PROGRESS:

Spoiler:

Issue One - Prologue: 4/12 Pages.

ISSUE ONE:

I'm rather interested in having my character in this, heh. If anyone, Sebastien Yursell, my Blood Elven Tinker might make a good cameo appearance.

Race: Blood Elf

Class: Tinker (Rogue)

Look: I might as well post a screenshot of him and/or list his clothing at some point.

Information: He is a successful man, claiming the title of 'The Booty Bay Handyman', renown for being able to create whatever the custom wishes or procuring it for them. This man is known to be very strange, prone to ranting about how something works and wont work due to a lack of logic, knows very little on how magic actually works, stubborn, kind-hearted and very uninclined to fight due to a distinct lack of ability regarding the matter.

I'd like a cameo, please. Any of the storylines I have, are accompanied with pictures and a little insight to their backstory and personality. The Novalights if your looking for horde chars ( mostly elves ) and Ordonis for alliance ( humans ) thanks for consideration.

Kapre is open for a cameo if you'd like to insert him I have artwork of him, plus I think he's fairly recognizable in-game. I don't expect a big role, however. In my own WoW story, though Kapre is a leading protagonist, it's a sorta "World of Warcraft from the viewpoint of an NPC people forget about" sorta story, so something small and humble is fine for him.

Cameos? Simply epic. Aroes might be good for comic relief what with doing silly things. As Anski said, I'll post a screenshot if needed.

Happy to see you guys are interested!

I organized the main post a little bit, added a sneak peek of the first issue's front cover starring the five main characters. The actual issue is still at a very early stage, so feel free to voice any suggestions, questions or even complaints toward the cast. It's perfectly possible I'll scrap those five tomorrow and start again if I get some good ideas.

So how's this coming along?

So how's this coming along?

Pretty well, though I am very much in the planning stages. I've spent about a week now just thinking about it, not making any progress on the actual issue. It'll at least be thought-out when I finally do release it, though.

Updated with a new teaser image. Criticism welcome.

Having trouble with the program.. When I click on a map to view it in 3D, it crashes. =[
