Found this comic and it's quite beautiful.

It looks long, but there are no words, so it goes by fast.
Lame
Wow. I like it. A lot.
That comic didn't make any sense, and not in a good way.
you people have no sense of wonder
for the sake of posting, this song seems like it would fit in with the images:

it was wonderful I want to see more
I would would be up to my balls in wonder if it wasn't so nonsensical and cliche.
so a bird like he be going to get some seeds an he get scared away
and then he get wet or some shit
and then this space bird come down and they make out like birds do
then they go spy on some bitch and then they rob these motherfuckers get some more seed
then there's this other bird in a cage
and they bust his ass out
then the three of them just be flying
then one of em disappear I don't even know which one but then they turn ina moon and one o the stars and then that first bird just be staring at them and then he fly away at the end.
the people that didn't liked it are usually people that can't imagine a story as a whole

the people that liked it are hippies that like to think they're artsy.
I like the black on white. Oh Thor, I take pride in being a hippie they shaped the world (well tried to) you my friend are the second form of Nixon.
i thought it was pretty great and surreal
oops i'm an artsy hippie now
any of you guys read Flight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_(comics))?
it's like this only way better.
it's an anthology, so it's only steampunk when the creator of whichever comic you're on wants it to be
mostly it's about monsters, and dreams, and friendship, and going on adventures.
I've read a lot of the Flight anthologies. I keep thinking your avatar is from one of those comics, Slurpee! But I still haven't gotten the book out to confirm it. If I'm right, that was one where I loved the artwork, but wasn't hit as strongly by the story..
As for the Bird and Moon comic - I don't think it had much to say. Same thing most of my fly comics are guilty of.
Quote from: Norton I;1443693I didn't really imagine a story that much. I just liked it.
dot
and the song i posted was just playing while i looked at it, thought that it fits well
and what's up with you being so pessimistic, loki

Guilty. :3
If I recall correctly, this character is in two different volumes, and I wasn't quite taken with the initial appearance, but the one with the little robot in Volume 5 was just so gosh-darned cute.
Apparently he and the other guy he's always with have a one-shot comic book published through SLG.
I'm probably going to end up buying it out of a crippling adoration for stories about street urchins.
It makes alot more sense if you imagine that second thing he pecks at is some kind of acid.

Hmmm, I'll have to give it a looksee.

Yeah, this one in particular makes me chuckle.
Every time I see this thread title I think of Nerevarine Moon-and-Star
I like how reaction to this is completely split, and both sides just have nothing to say to defend their point.
I really don't see whats so great about this, as far as the simple cute no-dialogue "childrens book" approach to the comic, its not even original, this has been done thousands of times before and with much better stories and drawings.

However, I do really respect this approach to creating a story and have to admit the comic expresses its emotion and feel appropriately.

Yep. People who disagree with you are probably just stupid and don't get it. No one has a valid reason for not loving a meaningless feel-good wankfest about birds freeing their caged companions. Real birds are murderous, squabbling disease vectors. Also the moon does not love you and it does not want to comfort a sad bird. It is not wonderous and magical. It is a rock.
For a children's story this is a fine way to put them to sleep. For a grown human that doesn't need to be distracted with inoffensive coddling tales, it is despicable to consider it of any intellectual worth.
That was fantastic.
dude. loki. calm the fuck down.

And if I put thought into a critical assessment it means I'm OUT OF CONTROL CRAZEE MADD, DAWG.
well for one thing, you sound like someone who's been beaten up by his parents, or something similar
and I didn't read a post where someone praised it to high order, so it looks like you're overreacting to just a simple sequence of images

I can't tell if your I'm a edgy teen and contradicting to be funny, or just to be I'm a edgy teen and contradicting.
