Khris the Ninja and I have been tossing up ideas for comics, and we came up with this.

Hope you like it, we might make a series of Kombat Skits.

What...the ...fuck? Can someone explain to me what's going on in those comics? I understand it's complete and utter chaos but other than that, I'm totally lost.

They're selling Smoke Voodoo Dolls. How hard is that to understand?

Yeah I can read the first panel just fine. But then it shows a bunch of characters exploding, freezing, talking about shit, and absolute chaos. I dont get what's funny about it, or what the crap is going on. Dont tell me they're just selling dolls.
Ok, upon further inspection, I now realize what's happening is Smoke is getting tortured throughout the panels. Not the easiest task since only one of those panels actually features a Smoke sprite and the transitions are not intuitive at all. The one panel that features Smoke has him ripped in half. Then he somehow connected back together to get frozen and decapitated in the next panel, where he speaks out of his neck. Then as he is burnt by Scorpion, he says ''I'll get you twice'', whatever the fuck that means, and then we see him begging for the dolls to get ruined, even though I assume that would mean that Smoke would be ruined/die aswell. Then we see him impaled through the spikes on the MK1 bridge arena, a transition as bad as the ones in the panels before, and then we see him falling down. I assume it was suppose to be the other way around, but unfortunately we cant read your mind. We're not psychics so we don't know what direction you want us to follow the panels, and that's why there's a standard direction, which is from left to right. How did Johnny Cage come across these stupid dolls anyway? That really makes no sense. Shang Tsung or Quan Chi doing it would make alot more sense (Although expecting Quan Chi would be too much since our wonderful ''sprite comic artists'' cant seem to go outside 2D Mortal Kombat characters).
Also, the quality of the picture is SO horrible. Did you save it as a gif on paint or something? This wont do, if the humor sucks, you have to have something pretty to look at. Man, when are you guys going to get that? Resizing sprites to make them small and pointlessly place them in the background doesn't help matters either. It makes everything look pointless and even uglier. We can tell that you put zero effort on the ''art'', since you didnt even bother putting the ''smoke dolls'' inside the horrible furniture. You just kinda pasted them on it, like Cage glued dolls onto wood. Ok.
The text looks nice, but the speech bubbles look like something MS Paint spat out. The idea is original, but that doesn't make it funny. Congratulations on not making another Shang Tsung morphing comic or Rayden comic though.

Explain why.

And Zentile, He says" I'm getting you twice, as payback for giving Sub-Zero one,and burning him.

And Having the dolls ruined would kill him, but he wouldn't have anymore pain after that.

The panels just show what happens to him.And the panels do go from left to right.Then to the next row.

The characters in the background are playing with the voodoo dolls.

I could also get a screenshot and cut Quan Chi and guys like that out of it.

I don't see how you didn't understand it.

The main reason this comic fails is because of it's very essence. It makes no sense, it has little humor or integrity, or anything to make the reader want to read them. Sprite comics like these were funny back in 2000, but the standard for sprite comics have evolved greatly, especially for humor. When I see stuff like this, it really makes me wonder of how sprite comics are so hated.

Honestly, i'm sorry, but this comic sucks, plain and simple. The graphics are sub-par, the story is non-existant, and the comic is just so...chaotic. Everything happens too fast for the reader to comprehend. You guys are just wasting your time. It's not funny, it's not interesting, it's simply pointless.

Well if they do go from left to right, you're telling me Smoke first gets impaled in the spikes and THEN falls? What?
The panels just show what happens to him, but clearly the transitions aren't being done right. It wasn't easy to understand that the frozen headless guy and the burning skeleton were Smoke because everybody looks like that when they're frozen or being burnt. You could use a subtitle to make us understand it's Smoke suffering along the day or week or whatever.
