Without further ado, a comic!
I don't know how long this is actually going to run; I was originally planning four pages, but I keep having new ideas! It's very easy to come up with new ideas for a story as ridiculous as A Couple of Badass Superheroes is shaping up to be.
The original reason I'm writing this is because I need practice writing in this graphical format. So I decided to tell a ridiculous story, because if I tell a serious story, I end up being way too perfectionistic about it and take lots of time getting the details right, when what I really need to do is just to write a lot of stuff. It took me 5-6 hours to draw this page, which isn't terrible or anything, but I want to get a lot faster than that. And if I was writing a serious story, I'd want to hold off on posting it until I had a new, nicer system for displaying webcomics. (With the current setup, they'll display in backwards order once I've written all of them, which is annoying. I'll have to come up with a better system...)
Of course, the other reason I'm writing it is that Jeva and Sam (if you didn't read the transcript, those are the heroes' names – Jeva is the one with the katana) are super awesome and badass, and if I don't draw this comic, I'll be the only one who can enjoy how awesome they are.
Anyway! My schedule is pretty random right now, so I don't know when I'm going to write the next page, but I'm hoping it'll be within the week! Look forward to it!
