Robin Boof story and script are finally done! I plan to start this short and sweet comic project next month!

The title is: Robin Boof and the Lost Pajamas

It’ll be a PG-13, ENM story about our hero Robin Boof in his 30s. He has to deal with the young rebels of the village who see him as a fraud, a fake hero who willing to do anything to gain popular. So they plan to rob the Prince of Thieves one night until he has nothing left…

Not even his pajamas!

The cast: Robin Boof, Little John, Will Scarlet, and Much the Miller’s Son.

This project is going to be an experiment for my future comics (like The Baretender, Mango the Dragon and Bellboy Billy - A Bun Hunting Story). I want to test how everything works, where to post, the workflow, etc.

One thing I’ve learned from developing the comic idea over the past week is that I love the “separate story per volume” format, just like European comics that release each adventure as a complete album.

The same goes for the animation we've been working on too. I love focusing on one self-contained story that can be finished on its own.

I don’t see myself spending years on one long comic, releasing it chapter by chapter from start to finished (as much as I’d love to, I know I don’t have that much patience ). Instead, I’d rather do it like Blacksad or Asterix - we jump straight into the middle of the story, focus on that chapter’s main adventure, and slowly reveal more as the series goes on.

And yes, it’s going to be rated PG-13 <> <> so I can share it everywhere… with an exclusive 18+ version later just for you guys, huhuhuhu

We'll see how this goes XD

One question: BLACK and WHITE or COLORED COMICS?!

Ooo! Gonna see some cool comics! :3 I like colored ones, but black and white is understandable for easier production so there is no issue whichever is picked! I’m just excited to see what will come of it :3

So Lil Jon is gonna strip him butt naked? Good to know 😈

eah I aiming for B&W too, in case I want to print and sell it gonan be much cheaper and not too heavy to ship everywhere. BUT, we'll see XD

Feedfancier

Can't wait to see your take on Maid Marian (it is hard to compete with Disney's). And of course the villains: Prince John, Sir Guy of Gisbourne, The Sherrif of Nottingham.

I do get a big belly when I drink a bunch of water. I still enjoy the classic Asterix comics and films. Especially the Twelve Tasks of Asterix.

B&W would be far more economical, considering the project load. Color is icing on the cake, but not essential :3

Having a belly with big muscles ain't a bad thing tho~ I love colored panels but if black and white makes the comic come out more easily for you then that's the best option. Or maybe keep most of it black and white and color only certain pages to better emphasize emotions (i.e a shocked Boof discovering all his clothes are gone and he's completely nude)

Lee Love

Either b&w or color is fine. I love both art styles equally.

So thats why they keep telling us to stay hydrated... And congrats on finishing your short script for Robin Boof. Keep doing your best, and make sure your clothes arent stolen.. unless its still really hot and its an excuse to cool off.

Love that you mentioned Blacksad as an inspiration source! 💕

Whichever doesn’t drain you as much! Personally I really love manga- I think Colored kinda takes away details with expressions- especially closeup. With b&w- you can be more detailed with like wrinkles in the face and detail in the eyes. Anyway rambling aside- I think like either the beginner page colored with the rest black and white [like manga] or like someone said- color for really important pages

Robin: Hah! Who else dare enough to steal the clothes from the prince of thie- *whoosh... uh oh

Piti Yindee

Agreed! I actually plan to do it in B&W Manga style from beginning but I wanna know what people prefer. Thx for encouraging!

Piti Yindee

Their comics are superb, just the illustration alone worth the collection!

Orion-Sunset

Agreed! You can see a world that feels truly *alive* in every panel of the comic, like the creators though out the personalities and lives of every background character in a crowd. (And the main cast are all very handsome men. That certainly doesn’t hurt, either!😚)
