ok, here is a sort of... "pilot comic" of a webcomic I am going to start doing. I doubt it will last long, or be posted regularly, or anything, but it is worth a shot. The name is "Reality Hurts", and it has a rather... unique premise.
Ok, the main character, Kyle, represents me (yes, the comic is about me and my friends). Kyle is bald, often sitting, and completely covered with technology. He never takes off his, err, power armor (and all its various attatchments) if you will, though often nobody even seems to notice it. That is not exactly me in reality, I can assure you. Well, not exactly. Kyle has another interesting feature - a floating screen, his "front". Essentially, Kyle is seperated into to parts - his real personality, and his social front end (yes, a technological name twist :D). Yes, his character is all about that good stuff, something I am struggling with at the time. No worries, however, as that is NOT the focus of the comic. That enigma of a character is simply there like any other character.
In fact, everybody is represented in a somewhat symbolic nature, quite often their negative aspect (since this is Reality Hurts, not Reality Rocks). The rest, I will leave to you to figure out. And yes, the comic will be comedy, following much of my life and my friends' lives. Yes, you guys will be there too. Expect the jokes to be fairly cynical.
Without further ado, here is my character's concept:

Ok, now there is a real point to this post. I will be requiring script ideas every so often. So feel free to give em to me :D. And if this looks any good, I will need hosting too *puppy dog eyes* :D.
