Hello out there,
A while back, The Escapist put on a contest for users to create a web comic. The winner would get their comic up on this site and whatnot. While we didn't win the contest *sniff*, it did give a great push to get something started.
Anyway, the point...and I swear I have one, is that Hi-Res Heroes, which was created for said contest, has been launched today and can be found over at Drunk Duck http://www.drunkduck.com/Hi_Res_Heroes/ Take a gander. It's going to be a weekly thing, with a new comic released each Friday.
It's very game centric and done in a 8-bit pixel art style. The look gains a lot of its inspiration from the old SSI computer RPGs from back in the day. Pool of Radiance...anyone?
Since I've gone on long enough, I'll leave you with some links:
The four comics submitted for The Escapist are still milling about. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/content/webcomic/view?id=74366&page=1&ix=11
The main characters have been made out of Pixel Blocks and can be seen over at Think Geek http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/6950/action/
...alright. Done. Swear. *runs back to corner o' forum lurking*
