Black Mask Spotlight Storytime of Pain:Jade Street Protection Service

I was going to do 4 kids walk into a bank at long last, but it's storytime of pain weekend so here's one of the ultimate tumblr things they want into comics, a girl gang magical girl series. So let's read this comic that was made on a go pad. I already did Moontstruck, and after this 4 kids walk into a bank.

the people we can blame for this.

One character is Muslim Louise Belcher.

>Black Mask

Do these guys specialise in SJW comics or something?

Yes.

...

The comic that helped make the company was occupy comics. It doesn't help that new creators are well inducted in the Tumblr scene. They tend to have they same flaws like one page suspense I call it.

...

second issue.

w-what is this shit

I read the entire first issue and... meh. I'm out. That was a pile of boring nothing.

...

ye, that's what bad about these sjw comics, they're just dull
at least millar's edge is entertaining

...

To me the worst comics are the boring ones, safe is not good writing.

In one story I was writing I created a gang girl called the Daisy Chains, who all wanted to be named Daisy Chain but constantly argued over who gets to be the main Daisy.

You should do Beautiful Canvas. Also check out the first issue of PanelxPanel which spotlights it.

Like in so many girl gang stories there is someone named Daisy Chain so I decided to make like 6 of them. This one does not have sadly enough.

GAYYYYYYY.

Third issue.

...

Oh god. it's like bad SU meets shitty sailor moon cosplay henshin.

...

This comic really lacks the appeal of actual magical girl series. It doesn't help that the costumes have no design synergy with each other. Like at least Zodiac Star Force took the best design elements.

also I just really hate side cuts, makes me think they got a lobotomy.

>somehow the art has gotten even worse

Let me actually get some commentary here. The narrator is one of the worst part of the series. It's very tell not show, like it talks about how we are supposed to feel about characters, which as a rule I say is terrible writing 101.

you can really tell this is someone first's work.

Their logo is literally antifa.

I'm astounded that they actually got an eisner nomination, although I don't think it was for this book.

Also the world building is terrible, I mean why ever start at a magical girl school? I really hate YA academy fiction.

If it's the same artist as the first two issues, their linework has deteriorated into thick smudges instead of the thinner lines they were originally using.

It was Kim and Kim the dirty pair ripoff, really the best thing they made is 4 kids walk into a bank.

It's apparently a terrible webcomic that that's too cool for things like characterization or a coherent plot, or any sort of visual storytelling acument.

I know we shit all over America's book, but it's good to keep in mind how deep the shithole really goes.

as far as I can tell it's the same,

This art looks stolen.

I'm trying to really look into a deconstruction of books like these. Maybe make an anthology with that as the theme.

comics like this give me hope i can still make it

for got the image fuck the captcha. But here's what I would want in a deconstruction anthology
*a woman who is actually straight tries be a representative of queer culture alienates her actually gay friends.
*A gay man is forced to act camp, when all he want to do is be like Rambo
*A story about accepting you cant be friend with everybody
* it really was just a phase.
* a trans character who hates the trans community.

A lot of this is based on people I know.

Still my other deconstuction about Princesses is my focus. I would love to edit something like this.

at least it's always a riot reading America with everyone here

...

...

Oh god. Even Dobson does better backgroudnds than this. Hell, even if they're abandoning all setting, they could at least set a mood, or have some sort of messaging through color. A fucking gradient would be an improvement.

...

...

let me put it this way there is reason why I made this the storytime of pain.

...

...

...

...

...

that third panel shows this artist could have potential...if only they'd practice more and gave a single fuck

...

...

The static conversation scenes fail at the basics of anatomy and scene construction so hard, that I'm convinced the action scenes are lifted straight from manga.

Last issue this cover was used to advertise the series. If your going to fuck over me with false hope I at least want the art to look like this.

Whats with all the ridiculously cringey swear word replacements? Does "heck" or "dang" no longer suffice? That and the magical girl shtick that I'm suddenly supposed to care about is making me recoil into another dimension
