Comic by Mad D

[Mad D]

For these past couple years I've made these comics to capture the current mood, thoughts, and themes of Kingsfans.com. I'll be reposting all of them one at a time with small commentaries. All of the threads and comments that have been connected with some comics may have been erased with the server change, but I'll still try my best to add insight from memory.

-The season was ending and the standings were set and the Kings were going up against the Jazz, again. It would be the last time we would see the Malone-Stockton combo.
-This was my first Microsoft Paint creation. I never made anything in paint before except a few stick figures when i was bored.
-I forgot to put a Jazz banner on the door.
inspiration:
-The site did'nt have any comics :-\
-Bricklayer's avatar and my old penquin avatar.

-This was before Webber went down with his last leg injury and really needed surgery.
-Meteen Cleaves and Brent Price were the spare parts.
-I actually had to make this comic twice since I messed of the color by saving it as a GIF file.
inspiration:
-Webb always was getting some kind of leg injury and I wished there was a way to give him some health.

-This is probably one of my most detailed comics. I spent time on adding things like cracks, leaves, and gravel in the gutter to add the the environment of the comic.
-That's a car Doug is in. I guess I should have added a rear view window or something.
inspiration:
-Doug would go missing while on offense, but after the comic was made he had a big game.

Stojakovic16: "Why is Brick's arm so big?"
Bricklayer: "Swinging the bat is hard work."
NME: "Is that what they call it nowadays?"
-This was the first time I used multiple frames.
-The first two frames were kind of continuing the previous issue.
-Those are L.A. and Dallas trolls.
inspiration:
-Brick was asking: "When am I going to hit someone with that damn bat?"

-I used other users' avatars for once. I used Marv's red robot, Cafe's girl, and Slim's military badge. Everything that's an image I had to cut out using Microsoft Paint. That meant I had to zoom in on the pictures and use the eraser tool to cut out what i wanted, and no i didn't have photoshop.
-Finley was the reason why there was SARS.
-I forgot to draw some weed for his lighter.
inspiration:
-Finishing the first part :-|

Great Skit Mad D !!!!!

 

[Bibby_Is_Clutch]

Nice comics... glad you brought them back!

 

[6th]

Mad D, I really appreciate your taking the time to resurrect your comics for us. Not only do we get to enjoy them again, but your commentary with each one really puts each into perspective for newer members who weren't with us at the time each comic was created.

You have done an excellent job (as usual, by boy).

 

[The Freak]

Ditto 6th Thanks for the comics Mad D!

 

[Prophetess]

yeah! thanks mad D!

-I spray painted the issue on the ceiling. I wanted to do something like that with each issue but i got lazy -_-!
-Brick got new carpet.
-Brick's last issue (not really, I guess he thought the penquin never made it out safe).
inspiration:
-The site member Duane Causwell and the thread (erased with the server change) he started that praised Causwell. In the thread I posted a message with me sucking up to Duane, but it had a hidden messege. I highlighted letters in red hoping someone would string them together.

-This was the start of the second set of comics. I guess it was because the next season was starting soon and there was a big gap between the last comic I made.

-I wasn't going to continue the first one.

Great comics. Those things never get old.

 

[6th]

And you thought we didn't need no stinkin comics.


Thanks again, Mad D, not only for the original creations, but for reposting these on our new server so that newer members can enjoy...and us old members can get a re-chuckle.

 

[Prophetess]

see? i knew you loved us enough to share again.

Great job, Mad D!!!

However, after looking thoroughly...

I would like to point out that I don't seem to be in any of those comics.

If I remember, your "excuse" was that my persona - Vlade on the Harley in front of ARCO - was too hard to duplicate. Now, however, I don't think you'll be able to use the same excuse!

I fully expect to see Taz in upcoming features!

-I would have used the troll I used earlier, but the troll provided by VF21 was more recognizable.
-This was made after issue #8, so it should be the real issue #9.
-I wasn't aloud to post it until she used it at least once. At least that's what I wanted.
inspiration:
-VF21 wanted something she could post up whenever trolls were around.

-This is why VF21 was never in the other comics ;D
-Brick got a new frame for his picture. He also broke into Adelman's lab and stole back his painting.

-Look above.
