/PTG/-Publisher-tan General

>What is a Publisher-Tan?
An anthropomorphic personification of a publishing company.
>Why are you making these?
Because we are autistic and/or bored.
>Why are they all girls?
Japanese -tan tradition. But we do have some boy -tans too, like Diamond-kun.
>Where is the gallery for all the images?
publisher-tan.booru.org/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=all
>Where is the pastebin for all the ideas?
pastebin.com/n0xR9Zgb
>Previous threads?
pastebin.com/Gv7LCxZ4
>How can I help?
If a publisher doesn't have a personality yet, then you can suggest ideas for one.
If a publisher doesn't have a design yet, then you can suggest ideas for one.
If a publisher has a personality and a design, then you can draw them.
If multiple publishers have all of the above, then you can draw comics of them interacting.
>How many publishers do we need?
All of them. This isn't a Marvel/DC project, so please don't focus on them.

Please do not respond to console war comments.

And last but not least, remember to have
>fun

It's quite lonely here...

bump. i'll draw something when i get home

Quit making generals for everything god damn thing you autistic retards!!!!!!!!!!!

With what happened last time, I can understand why some people have reservations in being here.

But, it's a new day and we should start out with positivity and leave the past behind us.

So drawfriends, anything you're working on?

I tried to do something, but I'm embarrassingly terrible. Are there any good, simple guides for the ham-handed?

/ic/ is supposed to help with that, but I'd ask the /tg/ drawthreads, they seem to actually want to help people do better art.

Marvel tan version coming soon next week probably

>newspaper cartoon-kun is an old man trapped in the body of a little boy like detective conan

Vertigo tan & Malibu tan causing a blackout and using glow-in-the-dark paint to vandalize the city to promoting movies, and getting in a fight when they meet each other

Does he have a little animal sidekick? He'd most likely look like Calvin from Calvin & Hobbs.

But you could make him look like one of those old paper boys.

Holy hell last thread was a cluster fuck

Anyway regarding the music the tans listen to

>DC-tan: I had an idea but I forgot what it was

>Marvel-tan: Top 100 billboard and Greatest hits

>IDW-tan:Anything 80's boy youtube.com/watch?v=D2dEc7HaX88

>Entertaining Comics-tan: loves songs based on criminals, murderers, myths, and urban legends
>IE based on Ed Gein youtube.com/watch?v=VLXEj4UowF8

>Based on a stalker in Tyler Texas youtube.com/watch?v=eKbk7BPXBa4

>Archie-tan: 60's, indies, and Alternative prefers music on vinyl

>Dark Horse-tan: Metal, Speed Metal, Death Metal, Sludge Metal, Stoner Metal, Hardcore Punk, Grindcore, you get the point

Image-tan: Can't think of one

>Self Publisher-tan: 2deep4u youtube.com/watch?v=0pbcN-oYp68

Vertigo-tan: I don't have an idea

>Malibu-tan: Mashups youtube.com/watch?v=_mhInfmv178

>Fantagraphics-tan: Radiohead fan

>Comic Strip-kun: Stuff like The Rat Pack

>2000 AD-tan: punk & Ska youtube.com/watch?v=lQTB2BRDGlo

>Oni Press-tan: Anime stuff youtube.com/watch?v=41rLeVR_zt8

Do we have a design for Mirage yet?

Isn't Malibu dead?

>2000 AD-tan
Do you mean Rebellion-tan?

>9hours
>9posters

... it hurts

Yes.

The current Marvel imprint is Icon.
The classic Marvel imprint (equivalent to classic Vertigo) was Epic.
Malibu is a publisher that Marvel purchased (like how DC bought Wildstorm) but then Marvel killed it off.

I guess it's in here because someone was a big Men in Black fan but they didn't realize that it's dead.

I told you motherfuckers, we need more DC and Marvel but no you want your shitty Rebellion-tan

>it's not Marvel or DC so it's shitty
We don't need your attitude.

>we need more DC and Marvel
Dude, people left because of the Marvel vs. DC posting from last thread, as well as Marvel and DC fans shitting on other comic publishers and other artists. This Publisher-Tan General just isn't as fun as other generals due to company wars.

>9hours
>9posters

we should use this time to work on the tans
Hell I spent an hour working out the music
We need stuff like favorite snacks, games, movies, shows, books, ect ect

>Entertaining Comics-tan: Favorite shows Making a serial killer, Ghost Adventures, Sabrina the teenaged witch

It looks like someone needs to fix that pastebin

Reminder to all drawfags.

DC-tan's hat should look like this:

>This Publisher-Tan General just isn't as fun as other generals due to company wars.

What do you mean?

Noted

>Marvel-tan having X belt
In [CURRENT YEAR]? I don't think so.

No, her hat should be cute, not shitty

Company Wars aren't fun.

Then we'll make it cute

Snacks:

>DC
generic brand sandwich cookies
>Marvel
Schwarma
>Image
anything from Starbucks
>DH
pancakes
>Archie
Burgers and onion rings
>Vertigo
Fish and chips
>Fantagraphics & Self-publisher
anything from local Coffee shops as well as non-traditional hipster restaurants

I thought this was dead. Why do comic fans have so few creative types? Is it just because there are so few comic readers?

>Mario hat
>not shitty

Suggest something then.

Good catch on the Ska , but I'd go a bit more British for 2000AD/Rebellion. Quite a lot of metal as well, maybe some electronic new wave stuff like Human League. Do we include Bands that have been inspired directly or indirectly by the comics? Because then we've also got Anthrax, The Lord Weird Slough Feg, Shriekback, Manic Street Preachers and Portishead

Well, then what should it be?

isn't shitty looks cute

>isn't shitty looks cute
I'm guessing English isn't your first language.

I forget, is that one of the changes that user refused to make out of "spite"?

Because Sup Forums it's mostly cartoonfags, that's why the Channel booru has already 300 pics and ours just shit and scrawls

Seriously, we have better ideas, what's the problem?

Yeah, his argument is that the name is more recognizable

Spider symbol or Avengers' A.

>Seriously, we have better ideas,
No we don't.

We have
>Cool Detective DC tries to coolly solve a cool mystery while stinky Marvel stinks and sucks.

Fuck you, just focus on the other tans then.

Now, now no need to start an argument lets just work on the tans

There is alot of stuff to work out like this

Which Spider symbol we use?

Well that's a shame. I think Rebellion-tan is a cooler name and gives her access to more interests like vidya and tabletop gaming.

This, we should ignore Marvel and DC, they are nothing but trash and shitpost

Its not a publisher though, not even in the UK. Never has been. It'd be like Beano-tan.

Speaking of, DC Thomson (Dandy RIP, Beano. Old, large, incomprehensible Scotch accent, wee black-and-red beret. A lot of red and black in general, really.

>Fuck you,
I'm not your enemy, user. There is no need to treat me like one.

Yes, yes we do

I like this list so far

w-what happened last thread?

People stating there opinions, which caused a bunch of thin-skinned faggots to complain about how everyone was """""""""arguing"""""""""

Besides them I only like Vertigo and Black Horse, but I'm just interessed on drawing Marvel and DC tan..or I was...I think I will just wait the weekend threads for the other tans.

bump

Stop giving them all the attention, we have the same content!

>we have the same content
Maybe, but they don't fight every five minutes.

Go wherever your heart takes you.

If you ever want to get into other publishers though, just let us know and we'll be happy to give you recommendations.

>I'm just interessed on drawing Marvel and DC tan
We had enough shit because of them in the last thread.

take this to /ic/ you fucking autistics

There was so much fun new content on the last /ctg/ thread.

>autistics
That's our word. You can't use it without our permission.

No one fucking cares, go away

Please stop picking fights.

but it's true, who fucking cares, they have their own thread

FUck off

>>>/ctg/

Oh, we're still doing this? I thought the project was killed after the last thread.

Their community is much more active than ours. It's in our best interests to maintain peaceful relations with them so that we can lure some of their drawfriends over here to draw our ideas too.

Oh man, that's some good shit right there

Yo guys, why don't we fuse this general with the channel-tan general?

>drawfags will notice Publisher-tans
>less threads
>more interaction between Sup Forumsmrades

Because we don't need to infect that thread with our console wars that war killing us.

it'll just be the same thread, but with drawfag's ignoring all the publisher-tan, aside from the occasional DC or Marvel picture.

Cartoon fags and comic fags don't get along.

Their development is very different from ours. Your plan will never work

Let's stay separate, but we can still make drawing of our -tans interacting with their -tans (and hope that they'll do the same for us).

Like Dark Horse-tan offering "The Amazing Screw-On Head" to Syfy-tan, but she rejects it in favor of more wrestling shows.

>Rebellion
Strong lager and a kebab.

Oh don't be like that, let them draw what they want to draw. It'd be nice if we could see any of the the designed ones doing things rather than just standing in place. It was kind of obvious in the first few threads that we had more DC fans than Marvel ones, but what's done is done. I think we can all agree that all the real world publishers put out some good things and they all do utter crap from time to time.

Just let DC and Marvel be the Betty and Veronica types - yes, they're kind of bitches to each other, but they're also friends who hang out a lot and are into broadly the same things. Ones a bit stuck-up, ones a quite down to earth. They both like dudes in spandex to a level that makes everyone else roll their eyes. There's lots of things you can do with them together that aren't just arguing - watching to see a movie, say, or playing a game. Or even chatting on the phone or something (Marvel's got a flash mobile, DC has the big red Bat Phone). Fuck it, make DC talk like Adam West Batman and Marvel like Bendis, that'd be cute.

*ring ring*
>Yo.
>What's up, old chum?
>Hey, so there's this great place down on first and third and- wait, Chum?
>Something the matter?
>Who says chum?
>why, I do old friend?
>Really?
>Yes.
>Really-really?
>Indeed. You see, I've noticed your distinctive patois forces others into short, staccato sentences which irritates more often than it delights. To that end, I'm attempting to educate and enlighten you by example.
>God you're an ***
>Perhaps... perhaps.

Vertigo could be the reluctant, self-aware boy-wonder.

Hobby night Sup Forums. What are the publisher-tan's hobbies?

>DC: Finding some petty cases so that she's always working, she's OCD like that.

>Marvel: Redesigning her room, it has to be all new and all different.

>IDW: Toy collecting

>EC: Reading creepy pastas online.

>Archie: Playing Sonic games.

>Dark Horse; Hunting

>Image: I don't know.

>Self Publisher: Locking herself in her room and writing.

>Vertigo: Don't know

>Malibu: Hunting down extra terrestrial sightings, often finding little to nothing.

>Fantagraphics: Some strange alternative hobby.

>Comic strip: Playing with his cat.

>Oni Press: Binge watching some anime.

Reminder that being Malibu-tan is suffering.

Requesting this scene from Family Guy, but with the other publisher-tans trying to stop DC-tan from pushing Batman so much. All the while she's holding one of those waifu pillows of Bruce Wayne. vine.co/v/eh5auxblxbD (sorry, couldn't find the clip on youtube)

>DC fires the Executive Editor of Vertigo
>DC restructures Vertigo so that it reports directly to Dan DiDio and Jim Lee
DC hates Vertigo now.

Young Animal is DC's favorite sister now.

>Using the wrong update image.

C'mon user.

>Giving Vertigo a ton of shows
>Constantly advertising them.
>Using their characters in their stories

Yep, they totally despise Vertigo.

That's also wrong. It's missing Fantagraphics.

Wait, fuck, posted the wrong one too.

Okay, enjoy your Dan DiDio Presents: Jim Lee's Vertigo Xtreme.

Sorry, my bad, posted it here.

At the very least, maybe we should vote on one Milestone.

Agreed, I'm down for far right.

Rights pretty good. I'll second.

Fantagraphics: Stamp-collecting.

>Publisher-tans decide to go out camping.
>Dark Horse-tan goes out to cut wood.
>Rebellion-tan is simply staring, admiring her beauty.
>One of those cliche slow mo scenes from the movies happens as she cuts the wood.
>Rebellion-tan is suddenly pulled out of the trance has Dark Horse-tan suddenly talks "Helloooo, Rebellion-tan? Will you?"
>Quickly calls back. "Yes! Yes I will" Without even knowing what she was agreeing to.
>Dark Horse-tan suddenly drops a shit ton of wood on her, causing Rebellion-tan to fall over from the weight.
>"Cool, take it over to the camp site, I'm gonna get myself some food."

strawpoll.me/10613696

Nice repost faggot.
Also DH needs a new design.

...

>That time Marvel-tan almost destroyed comic book movies because she was going through a Evanescence phase.

come on guys, left its shit

I quite like the middle one, myself, but that or the right would be fine. Right looks like middle going full Black Power.

As much as I hate it, we have to let democracy do it's work.

posting more stuff.

This is DC when she goes out with Snyder or WB. She doesn't really feel good about it and she never makes as much money as promised, but she does just good enough to convince her to do it again.

And Dark Horse.
I didn't do the Hellboy arm just because I suck at it. and I couldn't tell what her underwear is supposed to look like.

Senpai, you got a place I could follow your art?
