Alright y'all, I don't know what I'm doing.

Which comic idea should I do for tomorrow?

Idea #1: Veteran

Panel 1 - Some representation of an internet troll (probably like a guy with sharp teeth, i dunno) points off-panel and says "YOUR COMICS SUCK!!"

Panel 2 - Shen is just standing there, blank-faced.

Panel 3 - Guy: "Nothing to say?"

Panel 4 - Shen: "Brother I've been doing this for over 10 years.

My skin is like rhino hide."

---

Idea #2: Pro Hater Origins

Panel 1 - POV, some girl has her hands on your shoulders and is looking at you.

Girlfriend: "Look, I need you to be a little meaner to me."

Panel 2 - We flip perspective to see that her hands are on the shoulders of the Pro Hater, but devoid of her usual expression and attire. Instead, she looks like a mild mannered bookworm.

Future Pro Hater: "But why would I do that? I like you."

Panel 3 - Girlfriend: "I know, but I like being TEASED a little. It makes it happy.

It makes me feel like you're paying attention to me."

Panel 4 - Future Pro Hater looks to the side a bit.

Future Pro Hater: "Oh, well, if it makes you happy."

Future Pro Hater: "Then I guess I can try."

Panel 5 - The paneling disappears as we exit the memory and enter reality. Pro Hater is sitting on a river bank at dusk.

Pro Hater: "That was 10 years ago today.

My first gig as a hater."

Panel 6 - We zoom out a bit to show the river bank. The Pro Hater becomes smaller sitting on it.

Pro Hater: "Happy anniversary."

Panel 7 - We stay zoomed out as the Pro Hater blows a party horn with a quite "pweeee"

---

Idea #3: Hyperpop Fan

Panel 1 - Shen is walking towards a jukebox with a coin. A guy in the foreground with a panicked expression is pointing at him, yelling "THE HYPERPOP FAN IS GOING FOR THE JUKEBOX."

Panel 2 - A guy jumps in between Shen and the jukebox, spreading his arms out to shield the jukebox from Shen and yelling "NO."

Panel 3 - 2-color silhouette panel of Shen's hand going through the guy's stomach to get reach the jukebox.

Panel 4 - The guy, bleeding from his mouth, raises his eyes to meet Shen's.

Panel 5 - Shen looks intently back at his eyes as the life fades from them.

Shen: "I will have my beep boop music."

you haven't met ur yuri quota

JesterFurby

That's right! Draw the yuri, straight boy!!

bug boy

Yuri time babeyy

LowClassWarrior

I picked Pro Hater but hyperpop was 🤏🏻close!!

Limi

I reaaally like the Pro Hater one but I also like the snappiness of the Hyperpop one, and the punchline is really good in my unqualified opinion 😎👉👉

Julia Sneed

Hyperpop seems funniest but I love me some Pro Hater content

Theo Howe

I really like veteran 😭 but hyperpop is super funny and im biased cause I’ve been reading for 10 years

Feltrex

I wanted to vote for 1 / Veteran, but because the only way to beat 2 was with Hyperpop, that's what I voted for (Hyperpop wasn't my first choice, but it's ok, and I also appreciate music).

skysyzygy

Shen you can’t do this to me the humor of beep boop music is delightful but I also really really want the pro hater one, which coincidentally will fulfill your “drawing yuri in my sweatpants” career goal

PizzaHutAsuka

i can never get enough professional hater

Jon Barker

Violence is always funny. But so is sadness. And indifference. I am very conflicted. Is this what Shen goes through every time he makes art? We are hardly worthy of Shenpai's labours.

Racheal

At this rate he's going to have to do BOTH of them because they're at 46% each

shencomix

I think regardless of which one I end up doing today, y'all HAVE convinced me that both Pro Hater Origins and Hyperpop Fan are good

Wizerl

uhh... what's a hyperpop? Can you throw a sample or something at me?

shencomix

basically, highly electronic, often fast, imagine-if-the-nightcore-remix-was-the-actual-song type music. i would say a lot of the stuff under this label fits the bill: https://deskpopmusic.bandcamp.com/

Wizerl

I tried some tracks from this. They are not bad. True nightcore is headache inducing for me. i'm really info highly electronic music.. Industrial lately. Some tracks from this link are really neat. Thanks
