The Army of Two strip was indeed pretty good.

I think my personal favourites from the Honorable Mentions are Escapist Radio Theatre, Dropped Frames and Manly Guys Doing Manly Things. Fables From The Rift was trippy and cool, with an appropriate style, but given the context of The Escapist, I'd go with the game-centric entries.

Congrats to Decoy Doctorpus.

Hmm. Mine appeared not to be in the entries at all. I can only assume that I didn't get it in on time, or fluffed it in some other manner.

Oh, and by the way, i'm not a gamer so i just crammed Michael Atkinson in there so the comic would have something on games. Sorry for the non-vg humor.

/* Drama Mode

I wonder if we are placed in order of rank. If that's the case, I got 300 out of 346, which means I'm in the bottom 13.3 percentile. I knew I was deluding myself into thinking I was any good. I might as well cut off my left hand and delete Photoshop from my hard drive so I'll never inflict my semi-retarded ramblings on the world ever again.

End Drama Mode*/


Well, that was fun. Good luck to the winner, and I'll win next time.

Didn't even make the honrable mentions. Oh well, Mine wasn't exactly what they were asking for anyways. Lol I figured it would hurt my chances.

I doubt it. It's probably listed in order of submission...
Shameless plug time : http://www.escapistmagazine.com/content/webcomic/view?id=74460&ix=16

I think the fact that none of my 4 first panels had anything to do with gaming kinda killed me...
It was more of a long-winded storyline comic...

Heyyy, honourable mention's not too shabby! I'm kinda relieved, I have to admit, I just got word that the studio I was at may be gearing up for another seven episodes. Might've been kinda tough to juggle a webcomic with those nine hour days if all goes well on that front.

Shamus Plug: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/content/webcomic/view?id=74414&ix=14 I'd be interested in comments from the community.

Also, who was interested in continuing their comic? I know I and my artist will be; I'm sure I could be persuaded to host other comics on the site as well... but I don't want to plug my site lest I break forum rules. PM perhaps?

What the hell? I couldn't even find my submission in the gallery? Was it that bad or was there some sort of mistake with the upload?

Aww well I'm gutted. But I do think the winner's comic was superb and it's a relief it's over! It must have been hard picking a comic out of so many great ideas.

Also, I'm not sure if they knew, but my comic was animated (it wasn't animated in the gallery)
http://www.michaelgeorgiou.com/duffray_003.gif <- That's the original version. My comic was called Dave Duff and the Pussycats.

Images are definitely in, so probably missing the contest entry w/description (would have been entered in the form on the main contest page - http://www.escapistmagazine.com/contests/register/webcomic10 ). Comics missing either the description or one or more images won't show up. PM the short description and I'll try to work it in so your comic'll show.

Also, for those asking, comics aren't shown in any sort of ranking order.

Came in after the buzzer, and one of the images didn't make it. I can probably get that last image in which will let your comic appear in the gallery; send me a PM.
