What makes a good comic book good?

Digi, take that image from your sig, change the sound effect to "Pwned Thread", and post it whenever you close a thread. With a catch phrase that's mocking and challenging, but ironic because they can't respond to it.

Because their thread just got pwned.

so Digi, what do you think about this idea for a comic?

I think that it's 1-2 sentences. Anything can make a great comic (or a horrible one) depending on the treatment. But when you write a comic you're creating a world, a backstory, multiple issues of varied content, etc.

So the idea's fine. But there's not enough for anything resembling an accurate assessment of "good or bad".

Beyond that, for Batman to be involved it would need to be a DC-published book. No one gets into the big-name companies without lots of credentials, and few break into the industry at any level.

You'll be sorry if you don't.

Tron'll steal the idea when you hesitate, and become the "cool mod" again.

Just saying...

Stories fluctuate on how much pure awesome is in them.

Not only that but it all matters what YOU deem awesome.

Take me for example, I think it's pretty damn bad-ass when a unit of 5-10 military guys (Marines, Infantry ect ) take out someone with Super-powers. I like it because it shows the sort of 'indomnitalbe spirit of man' schtck.

Batman isn't technically involved.

This guy just wants to be Batman because he grew up reading those comics, but the universe the story takes place in is our world, not DC universe.

For example, if I wrote in a comic someone eating at a McDonalds, would I need McDonald's permission?

well, if you're making money off of it, and you use the McDonald's logo... well, yea, actually. You would need their permission. or you'd be sued for copyright infrigment. and you'd lose.

Yes , why do you think there is so many parodies within the media ?

What makes a good comic book good?

The main character: appearance, powers, personality.
The artwork.
A story that's original or at least clever.

what makes a good comic!..... a free one (sorry im a cheap ass)

Yes, you would. If you didn't McDonalds would sue you.

the best comics have a combonation of good artwork and good storytelling and the art work dont have to be that great i guess but still it helps to be great
