I saw this nice comic project on a dutch message board, where they all work on one big comic, someone starts a comic, for example here about peel and then someone makes the next sequence in their own style. Do you guys think we could manage to do that for peel too? I'm sure we have some great artists  :p

I could take a whack at it.... I'm no artist though (Least not the kind who draws well :p). And I don't really have a good place to host it.

Perhaps one person could host it all? [I would imagine several people have their own webservers...I know I do]

Yeah I'll host all of it on pimpbunnies.de, and we'll use peel to make it, and maybe we can make it about the people of peel... and important is that every artist can show off his own style of drawing in a sequential story line  :p

Well Slimmy, I vote you kick it off, since you brought the idea to us. Draw us a comic!

I'll give it a try, maybe even with Flash this time instead of MSPaint... sounds like fun on a bun. Perhaps we can hammer out some kind of order of creators (I mean, who goes first, who second...) that way you can discuss what the people before and after you want to do so you can make it have a vaguely continueous feel.

Ok I'll think about a story line, I was actually thinking about us making a comic representing the history of peel.. like some island that got discovered and the entire community growing into the place there is now, mixed with some comedy, like for example when peel almost ceased to exist because of a war with the hip joint   ;) and mArc the saviour, a german army commander that leaded peel to victory! but I doubt anyone remembers all that   ;) I don't know, maybe some more ideas?

yeah like chump says, we should have some order, so not everyone goes making different story lines at the same time  :p

Slimmy: You should model it after the birth of America. That'd be pretty funny. Like the boston porn party or the civil war we had in ancient PEEL...

Make TMC happy and base it on the Bible:

"In the beginning mArc created PEEL, and it was good.  Then the nOObs arrived..."

And in the days of king Nixomon the wise, this story unfolded:
Two women, Margarita and Phoenixie had a dispute over a baby, both claimed it as their own. They took their case before the king.

Phoenixie: It's my baby!
Magarita: No, it's MY baby!
Nixomon: The answer here is to cut the baby in half and give each woman a half. Ben, come forth with your cricket bat and make it so.
Phoenixie: No! Wait! Let her have my baby! Don't kill him!
Nixomon: I said chop it in half, Ben. Do it!
Ben: okay.
*SPLAT*

And so Nixomon's name spread across the land as the guy you didn't want to piss off.

I can do that too.

After waiting many days, the PEELites saw Krytoses coming down from Mount Aachen. And Krytoses gathered them around, and started prophesing the laws of their Lord, Slimmova.

1: Thou shall not have other messageboards than me.

2: Thou shall not use ch@tsp3ak unto thy neighbour.

3: Thouh shall n- ...

At this point one of the PEELites, belonging to the tribe N00bs, spoke up.

FrozenFry: Hey, w3 dont wanna liev onder thoz stoopid rulz. LOLZ, you zuxxors!

Other PEELites joined the protest, faer caught the faithfull. But Krytoses looked at them calmly and said "maybe you'd like to discuss this with my colleague, the lovely VF?"

On these words, a heavenly figure stepped out behind him, she juggled the thunderbolt known as BanstickLight a few seconds and then hurled it at FrozenFry. The PEELite disappeared in a flash, all that was left was a few burning wigs. Silence fell over the crowd, only to be interupted by a calm voice:

Krytoses: Right, as I was saying,3: Thou shall not..."

And my drawing skills are even worse, so the best I can offer is a bit of help with stories (don't expect Shakespearean quality though).

As well as drawing in our own styles, we can also write in our own styles can't we? Just checking  :)

Nixorbo:   chopping things in half with a cricket bat
Nixorbo:   messy
TheReturnOfMark:   yeees
Nixorbo:   and criminally inefficient
TheReturnOfMark:   Every once in a while you just gotta write a story in which a baby gets chopped in half needlessly.

haha, doing it after the bible is also a very good idea and we've got some nice stories going along  :p but I'd really want the setoff to be done by a more experienced artist than myself  :p btw Teral's story VERY GOOD!

No, in all honesty, I don't think I'd want the whole thing themed after the Bible, for a few reasons.

1 - amazingly enough, it'd get a little too sacreligious for my comfort. Making fun of Solomon isn't in the same league as making fun of, say, Jesus.

2 - It'd constrain people's art and writing to have to adhere to it anyhow.

i like that bible style idea but we could have problems with PEELers that are from other religions so i would suggest something like universal history cuz you know we arnt all from the US that would be better  :)

I'd rather I tried something Film Noir...maybe everyone just writes in their own style, be it comedy, parody etc.

The best thing would probably be to pick an overall theme (fantasy, Film Noir, sci-fi, present day, etc), come up with a basic premise and then let it be up to the writers/artists to flesh out the story in their own style.

Yeah but I would want to risk getting just PEEL Comics back   :p the idea is that we work together on a common goal, a storyline... sure we could all do our own thing but that defeats the purpose. Maybe the bible thing is a bit much, the tale of peel is better, people are more free in it, you can all draw up stuff that'd represent the history of peel, you can do many many things with that, and you're not restricted that much... with the bible it would be...

or something else, like teral says, a story line, I suggest we go with the Rise of peel theme on this one, we could do theme changes every month or so

Bah, who needs political correctness when you have story goo. I am filled with story goo... well sort of.
Who would we cast as Adam and Eve? To be correct we would have to cast the first man and the first woman PEELer.
But that could bring about a few difficulties.

It could still be the Rise Off PEEL, just set in some mysterious country, far far away and a long time ago.
