Comment Script

Wow, he looks demented and mad in the third panel, especially with the background. And his butt is funny. The frown and his under-nose in the last panel is just so strange and completely unique. Hooray for no strictly followed character model.

2. Hiding behind your art.

What a good idea! I totally get it. This has to do with the communist party, right?

3. wert the ferk

The antler from panel three is also partially in panel two! I wonder if there is a reason for this. Maybe it was an attempt at trying to emphasize them, to make (what i think was) the punch-line better... however, it all comes off as wrong to me... leaving me confused to how these comics KEEP popping up regularly. I think i could make better comics in my sleep... and i'm not just saying that.

7. QUIT YER BELLYACHING!!

Good lord people, if you claim you can do a better job making comics than the guest artists, THEN DO IT. I'm sure Dumm would love to feature you sometime. Then you can put up with everyone putting down your work when they don't always "get" it.

Everyone has their own style. Sometimes it mixes well with others, sometimes it clashes. But quit being such sarcastic jerks when the latter happens.

8. Bellyaching?

Calm down now. Everyone's entitled to an opinion.

9. Typical comments section

- praise
- underhanded praise
- criticism
- underhanded praise
- criticism
- honest response
- anger at the criticism
- Good Samaritan urging people to calm down

Some points:
- you don't have to know how to make a cake to tell that it's moldy
- this isn't a cake, it's an outline of a cake that's about making cakes
- we can disagree in a civil manner
- everyone's a critic
- deer standing on their deer hind legs are scary

I can't stress the last point enough.

I think you summed it up pretty well, Isaac. I can't wait until we can do it all again next week.

I wish people wouldn't be sarcastic. It's not what I'd call 'constructive criticism'.

And on the subject of criticism, I personally preferred the old-style Arthur Paintstains. They were more alive than this computer-born one. More please!

12. That's more like it

This is probably my favourite paintstain as it is the most coherent. Pretty funny I thought

13. Personally, not my thing.

I'm not too keen on the comedy of Arthur Paintstain. Or maybe it's the art that doesn't jive with me. One thing I'll say is I prefer this strip's cleaner style to Deckter's usual rough jumble. So yay for improvement.
