benchiladaDude, my creative juices are flowing, and I'm soaking them up with bread.
BRAIN bread.
In the past two days, I've written a new Sir Reginald story and wrote a several more pages about the Mo-Lan Devils.
And now![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
the_crowchan has just kick-started my brain on how to market Sir Reginald.
As a comic, even, which I originally thought was impossible.
Anthology. Multiple stories per issue, each with a different artist, preferably new, unheard of artists. Everything fromchuckdawgesque stick-figures, to photo-manipulation, to grafunkel's weirdness and, if I could con something out of them, a few pages from man_size and zegas and rude_cutlet and...and...
The point being, three to four stories per issue, a few pin-ups, perhaps a one-page-of-text story, and then market it as a limited series. Everybody gets to do their own interpretation of Sir Reginald, in whatever time period they feel suits him, in whatever style they want, and with their own impression of what the hell he even looks like. Conceptually, I really groove on his anacronisticality and that you can't peg down when he's from, or why he's from, or where these stories take place, or even how old he is at any given moment.
My god, it'll be glorious.
Can anybody else groove on this concept? Or am Ibatshit insane pipe-dreaming again? Wait, what do I care if I'm pipe-dreaming? The point is, I think this would rock balls.
But for now, back to work.
Tonight will be movies, and trying to sleep, and more scripting of LAST SHOT. It's weird adapting a short story that's got a lot of dialogue and not a ton of "going on" for the first part into a comic.
But Karl keeps on rockin' in the free world.
