comics

If your life was a comic book/cartoon/animated work, what sort would it be? A traditional superhero comic? Dick Tracy gumshoe cartoon? A newspaper strip? Saturday morning cartoon-- or featured on Adult Swim? Twisted Underground Comic a la Robert Crumb? Or maybe more Harvey Pekar and American Splendor? Yaoi manga?

Martin: My life would be great as a comic... oooh, or one of the CGI films!
Donnelly: We'd end up getting voiced by idiots.
Martin: Nah, if I sold the rights to my life story I would make sure that I got to voice my own character. I'd have a midget voice Maku though.
Maku: I'm right here.
Martin: Heh, couldn't see you.
Maku: You're mean. I have questions. 1. what is Yaoi? 2. Who are Robert Crumb or Harvey Pekar? 3. What is Adult Swim? and 4. who is Dick Tracy?
Martin:  Japanese gay comics, dunno, dunno, dunno, and he's a detective.
Maku: Oh. I wouldn't mind having a comic about my life. Maybe one of those little newspaper strips. I used to like those.
Amber: There could be an excellent comic for me and Chris.
Chris: We could fight crime!
Amber: Except we don't!
Chris: But we could in a comic.
Amber: It's meant to be our life as a comic. Fighting crime is not our life.
Chris: Ok, fine. We could have a kick ass comic where we kick Kalmari ass! You as a dragon would take up a full two page spread for visual imact!
Katalin: I'm with Chris on this one!
Richard: I'm not sure that I would want to have a comic about my life. I'm sorry.
Martin: Why are you apologising? You don't have to have a comic. It's hypothetical anyway.
