Hi guys. I know my last fan fic wasn't all that great, but I'm trying to redeem myself. So I've started this fan fic called 'The Jax That Could Have Been', which is about Kurtis Stryker, as in the Yellow Gi, metal hands guy. Here's an intro/preview (I hope it works this time):

Yeah, I know. But last time I tried that...not really my best time with comics. Also, if anybody asks, i wanted to do the main character in SF form.

Well, FYI, it's not very funny, the joke needs a lead up, not the cliche' whore joke. Try putting the brief bio in one or two panels, while leading up to a different kind of joke. Originality is much funnier, even if it isn't funny, it would be more appreciated then what you wrote. So I suggest you rewrite this

I think this is good. This is a really summary of the triangle between the characters Jax/Stryker/Sonya, and explains what we almost got. I think the joke at the end is unexpected and funny!

I would imagine you are a long time MK fan and you read that in old strategy guide a while back, eh?

P.S. I edited your post to put the panels in the proper order, that might assist others in viewing your comic the way it was meant to be viewed.

I'm not going to read a comic square by fucking square. PNG on a website, even. Fuck that shit. I'll read and review your comic when you are capable of presenting it to us decently.

Always nice to know someone likes to swear around here. Anyway, here's the newest part:

Oh boy, that's so random my milk imploded.

Just placing a cute character like Kirby in a bloody environment like MK doesn't make it funny. And WTF is never a good punchline.

Eeeeeeeh, not so goood, the render placement is bad, as I feel he should be facing the rest of the panel as opposed to the border, meanwnhile, I chuckled a little at the Goro line, and WTF? Quick tip, internet slangs like "lol" normally hurt comics more than help. Off the top of my head, I can think that him questioning Shang's seriousness would've been better. Also, you may want to cut out your sprites better, the white border around Kirby and Kurtis doesn't look good. The render itself is theonly thing I really like about this. You may want to read some comics at theKombat Pavilion and get a good idea of what's considered funny.

How ironic, I was considering doing a comic with Kirby as the punchline.
I may just have to do that now to show you up ;)
Edit: I did it.

Sorry that I haven't been updating lately. It isn't over! I'm just doing a little research on MK1 right now, do develop some plot points.
