The episodes are too short IMO. Also, episode 2, and the 2 episodes combined, feel a bit chaotic to me, and the shortness doesn't help there either. I think it would be better if you published longer episodes, now they are more like scene length.
Therefor the danger in episode 2 does not really make me worry about Mooni and the other guy, as I have not build up enough sympathy for them.
Work more on letting the reader know who the characters are. Give them, you know, character, before subjecting them to things like danger. They are kinda cardboard right now (if you did not know them before).

And if the bar is not a 21th century one, then I don't like how it looks, it seems way out of place for EVE and it is something that I think could be easily avoided, but I do not know how you produce the comics, so I can't give detailed advice on that.

Other than that, if things improve, I might become a fan.

Thanks for you valuable feedback
I would say its short for time constrains I release a new one once every week
As for developing character I agree and I am developing it for vit and Silandras
Going back to the bar and eve this is a storyline progression that will be uncovered on the next episode and you will be able to know the reason why these 2 stories are mixed and how they are related

Hope the story improves and you become a fan soon

Been down to Providence, so I have an idea of the area you're basing this out of. NRDS is nice for neuts.

As per your story, I find it very interesting and I bookmarked it to view each week. I agree with Che Biko on all points, but when it comes to length I do agree that it's too short, but I'm hopeful that as you get used to the process of making this comic you'll get faster at it and make each episode a little longer.

As it stands right now, I think it's too short but it's not a killer for me or manditory to have a book each episode. I mean look at Darths & Droids web comic >_> they only release 3 strips each week. You just post all 3 on the same day. I think you're fine as it stands at this time, but you may want to add just a couple more strips later on if you're able.

Thanks a lot for your positive feedback
I have received many comments In this regard to
I will surely get faster with time but as it stands now not all elements are setup and 3D modeling takes time
But yeh once all modules are ready it will be just plug and play

So I accept your comments and will work on them for sure

Love your stories Mooni ;) Can't wait for the next to come.
As you make and publish more of them the storyline will be easier to follow also.

Keep up the good work and we talk ingame later Cool

Hello Mooni!
First of all Congratulations for taking such an efford to create that comic book. I wish you all the best on that, as i know that you have put much efford on it. I have to agree with many that the episodes are kinda short and the characters have to been build up before they can win the sympathy of the reader. Some minor mistakes on the design part (as the bar someone mentioned which doesn't fit with the EVE environment) can be corrected as the comic progresses. In general i think you are on the right track though. Maybe as someone mentionend you could release less often but more content^^. I'm curious to see how the story continues so keep it coming :)

PS: I'm honored to be part of that comic book.

Hi Handax

Thank you for your kind words. I am very much inspired by your leadership, It is the kindness in your heart that lead me to imagine you as a hero, putting others in front of your self. This is what I think you are and this is how you will be in my story :)

Hmm as for the old bar decoration, there is a reason behind it, as the story progresses, it will make sense :)

Artisically, I like your work. The story telling is a tad basic, but I appreciate you are just starting out and you will improve in time.

If I may suggest a book, I've found very inspiring: The Guide to Writing Fantasy and Science Fiction by Philip Athans

You might also want to go to www.fanfiction.net This is a cool website and you will find dozens of short stories and novels written, based on EVE.

Excellent beginning.

This is an example of how a "toon" becomes a personality.

If an alliance or corporation can provide an appeal that goes beyond raw power and wealth, then it provides an opportunity to its members to experience something greater.

You have taken a step toward something greater.
