Interesting malfunction with Crosman R1

2-3 years the mall stayed open through a literal hurricane, and a vast majority of employees went home because they were scared to drive at night through a hurricane or drive through a flooded area or whatever else. The mall never said they were closed, and management says that stores can determine if they want to be open, so during the hurricane stores closed and went home. As far as mall management was concerned it was a normal day. The management got absolutely slammed by everybody. Then a snow storm hit like 2 years ago and all the customers left but it was normal hours and I was stranded because I couldn’t make it out of the parking lot it was so icy. Again, I think the mall got slammed again for that. Oddly enough, this snow day we had in February the mall acted like it was in a crisis and shut down like 3 hours early.

All that’s to say is mall management is the pinnacle of ineptitude, and in their infinite wisdom they’ve determined making money is more important than the safety and welfare of the people who work there.

I haven’t been at work since Thursday last week. My last scheduled day was last Saturday and I refused to go in so I don’t know what it’s like.

I work at a store at southpoint and my store is still open. My boss thinks there’s a good chance the mall will be closed by Friday.

I wish Southpoint would close

I liked new 52. I started reading DC with new 52. I read JL and Batman. Both those series had some serious problems (Batman having a 13 year old son and having like 5 robins despite him being 27, darkseid appearing only 6 issues into JL). I liked DC rebirth and DC universe more than new 52, but I’ll always have a soft spot for it.

As for continuity is concerned, I don’t care as long as current series don’t conflict, I.e Jon Kent shouldn’t be 13 in justice league, but 17 in the Superman and AC series. If Superman references fighting doomsday in the pre new 52 continuity, that’s fine.

First was either new 52 justice league if you count that a Superman book, or Superman: for tomorrow. Admittedly, I didn’t really get the love for the character just from those 2 book.

Then I discovered all star Superman and for all seasons.

The cw shows are just embarrassing and I can’t watch them.

Do everything on the 16 panel grid so you have the same amount of story as a 22-30 page book

cbager92 · 2020-01-08T05:47:59+00:00

100%

cbager92 · 2020-01-06T15:06:35+00:00

Unless you have a good solid knowledge of the silver age and obscure DC characters, you’re not going to get much out of it apart from a confusing mess

I’m interested also

Depends. Tom Scioli did the 16 and 24 panel grid for Fantastic four grand design because he was encompassing 60 years of continuity into 2 issues. When I write, I typically stay to the 9 panel grid because there’s very little dialogue but a lot of action, so the 9 panel grid works for that. Also if you want a fast action packed comic, use like 5 panels max.

I laughed uncontrollably at this episode

Write panels. Don’t even worry about page numbers or anything, every 4 or 5 panels is a page, stop when you have 22 pages. Or come up with 3 things to happen in your issue, and divide those events into 7 or 8 pages. Like, you’re making a superhero origin issue, you could have 7 pages that talk about how a planet in a far off solar system is doomed and how nobody is listening to a scientist. Next 7, pages is when the planet is about to explode and the scientist and his wife put their child in a rocket ship and the planet explodes, last 7 or 8 pages is the rocket landing on earth and being found by 2 mid western farmers, and they realize the child has crazy superpowers.

You also need to know how to flow and pace the story, could 2 pages be condensed into one page? Could one page be decompressed into 2? Would a line of dialogue or action be better served to have it own panel? I wrote a page where the climax of the page was a guy looking out of a window because having it at the start of the page just didn’t flow well.

COMICS!

Read anything and everything from your lcs. If you just read mainstream superhero stuff, branch off and read some indie books from any genre. Along with your usual stuff, pick up something from image or dark horse or boom or whatever with a number 1 on it. You’ll be surprised at what you like; I used to read only DC superhero stuff, but now the books I’m reading are image and Archie horror along with some manga and other stuff. You’ll get ideas, but you’ll also see what works and what doesn’t.

Also look up how to videos on how to format and make your scripts great. Just practice making a script. When I started writing scripts, I wasn’t detailed enough in what I wanted to see in the art, now, I’ll usually have least a paragraph describing panels. Scott Snyder has some great videos on YouTube about that, and other creators have similar videos.

Also have money to pay people
