Funny! Which webcomic is it for? BTW, instead of "(the guy in front of you standing up the whole concert)" I heard "squee squee, squee squee, squee squee"
The details are all in the original iTom post, but... the strip is Sheldon. Specifically, today's strip. And the "squee squee" is because this is the "Flaco Mix", involving Flaco the Gecko, one of the bestest comic characters EVAR.
Now if only the web comic people would return the favor. I think it would be fun for you to make a guest appearance in "Skin Horse." Maybe they could do the entire FuMP as an evil conspiracy to take over the world through demented music and they meet at science fiction conventions to plot their evil plots, and so their henchmen don't stand out as much (meeting at the waffle house is so awkward, there's never any place to put your zap-lances)
Actually, in different ways many of them have returned the favor. The most obvious one is partiallyclips' fundraiser album, and how many of them helped promote it. kobold had those excellent strips where "A Boy And His Frog" made a couple of his macho characters cry; he also gave me the idea (and the cover, when it's finished) for Herbert West: The Musical. Bill Holbrook has become a friend (and I'll have something regarding that later today), John Lotshaw and howardtayler both make my life better, and I think we all know that the Foglios are aces in my book for a myriad of reasons.
Ain't palenoue great? We're blessed with his fanship over at Skin Horse, and he has an undying enthusiasm for seeing his favorite things go together, kind of like evil mad genius peanut butter cups. (I would so totally buy evil mad genius peanut butter cups.)
Unfortunately, much as part of me would like to work his idea into the plot, the story doesn't actually get to the one musical storyline until much later, where we do a charming and inspiring romantic comedy attrition-horror musical about the Jersey Devil. Maybe if we ever get to that point I'll ask if you take commissions for a brief score, as I can kind of write lyrics but am kind of lost in the actual music part. Do you ever take commissions
( ... )
Hi there, and welcome! No, I don't mind at all. And, yeah, palenoue is great. I've got a lot of tremendous folks on my LJ.
I'll have to check out Skin Horse -- forgive me for not doing so earlier, but there are lots of corners of the Net I simply haven't made it to for one reason or another. A Jersey Devil musical, huh? ;) And, yes, I do take commissions. I should be revising that page in the next two weeks, actually....
And, bluntly, these days I think all they're selling is evil mad genius peanut butter cups....
And, I have to ask -- how many "Bad Horse Chorus" parodies have you received based on "Skin Horse"?
ETA: Okay, I've checked out the past few weeks. Weird and funny. I've gotta make time for that (and a few other strips, but we'll let that pass). And I notice your commenters have a penchant for parody....
