The Hero's Handbook

Post by Silver »

It's a bit early, but this is the only chance I'll get to post it - so here goes! The Hero's Handbook!

Plot Summary: Lute sets out to become a typical fantasy hero. Unfortunately, he's... not exactly qualified. So it's funny.
Art: The art is pretty good. Anime style and stuff. The early strips don't look great, but as with all comics, it gets better.
Things to Know: Well, there's lots of author intervention... it's cool.
Favorite Strips: I'll post these later. Obviously, I really can't right now... though I can direct you towards the Halloween Special. Eh heh.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

I read the whole thing. Considering how long the comic has been going, I was kinda expecting there to be more strips... So, the art is cartoony and somewhat anime esque. Not super detailed or anything but it looks good. The basic plot actually reminds me a bit of a comic I thought of doing at one point. Personally, I think there's a bit too much author intervention but it's funny overall. Favorite strips are this one (reminds me of a joke from Ranma 1/2 and one in one of my books) and this one.

I read all of them as well. There good, but the number that there were disapointed me. Like Josiah, I thought there would be more considering how long its been running. I really like this http://theheroshandbook.comicgenesis.co ... 50603.html comic. Made me laugh.

I read the whole thing as well. Nice comic. Great artwork, well-done characters, and a lot of funny moments. Um... I can't think of anything original :sweat:

Anyways, my favourite comic would have to be this one, I find people getting shot down do badly hilarious.
