Are cartoons the only medium where making something more realistic and complex in anyway will make you less money? no problem with that, It just appears like that.
>>87387769
No. Good microbudget films turn far more of a profit than major budget films and are way less of a risk

>Are cartoons the only medium where making something more realistic and complex in anyway will make you less money?
Technically there's video games too.
AAA games with "realistic" graphics are inherently unsustainable due to how much money they put in with very little getting adequate gain.
There's only a few series that profit from extreme realism.

Isn't that mostly from reusing assets though?
Jaime Hernandez talks the origins of his main Love and Rockets characters and continuing their stories for over 30 years
http://theswervemagazine.com/Jaime_Hernandez_Love_and_Rockets_The_Swerve_Magazine.html
The Love Bunglers was so fantastic. Jaime is always raising his own bar, and never resting on his accolades.
>>87387477
>Growing up in a house full of comics, and reading the dawn of the Marvel Age left an impression on Jaime Hernandez, but he was truly captivated by the storytelling and body language of artists like Dan DeCarlo and Harry Lucey on Archie titles and the energy of Owen Fitzgerald's “Dennis the Menace” work.
>While some of Hernandez's “Love and Rockets” stories are full of fantastic elements, it is the unfolding life stories of Maggie Chascarrillo, Hopey Glass, Ray Dominguez, Izzy Reubens, Speedy Ortiz and the rest his Locas cast that have enthralled readers and kept the creator motivated for over 30 years.
>Alongside his brother Gilbert, Jaime Hernandez recently returned “Love and Rockets” to its original magazine format following almost a decade of annual graphic novel-length installments.
>The Swerve Magazine: When you guys started “Love and Rockets,” you had Maggie and Hopey from the beginning. How and when were those characters developed?
>Jaime Hernandez: I created Maggie in high school. I just wanted to create a character that I could write any story about. She could be a space rocket mechanic, or she could do anything. As time evolved, she started to change. I started to change. When I got into punk, she got into punk, things like that. I wanted to create her sidekick, her right hand, so I created Hopey. I kind of wanted my own Betty and Veronica.
>By the time it was time to do “Love and Rockets” they were punk rockers. I just wanted to do stories about them because I got really into the dialogue of characters to bounce off of each other.
>SM: When you were doing those early issues, did you envision that these were always going to be some of your primary characters?
>>87388461
>JH: I was hoping that they would last. Maggie and Hopey took off right away, so I was very comfortable with them, and I knew that whatever situation I put them into, it would work because it was a pretty simple, basic idea. It was sort of like a sitcom: whatever situation happened day, they would adapt to it, so it wasn't that big of a risk.
>SM: In the Locas stories, not only have the characters aged as the series has continued, but you've also made frequent use of flashbacks to fill in their lives. How much of these characters do you know when you bring them into a story?
>JH: Some characters I know very well right away because I have a story written around them. I have their story before I even introduce them. A lot of times, I create characters just as supporting cast, and some of them have taken on a life of their own, and some don't. The ones that have stuck around are the ones that worked for me, like Izzy and Ray and people like that.
>SM: What initially led you to have the characters age as the series progressed?
>JH: I'm not sure exactly when that came up. I know my brother Gilbert liked the comic strip “Gasoline Alley,” where the characters did age. I kind of liked that idea too. I like the idea of aging characters because it gave them a past and a future and a present. It just makes a character more well-rounded if you give them that. It's like a life, like people you know, so hopefully it makes the reader just feel closer to them.
>SM: While that helps with the narrative for the writing standpoint, it is challenging as an artist to have to redesign the cast to reflect the older ages?
Uploading on mobile cause im fucking retarded. Happy halloween!

Halloween ends in 40 minutes
How has your Halloween been so far /co/
I got high in the woods
What is objectively the best candy?

You wouldn't happen to live in New York would you? Strange question but that was what my friend said he would do
HEY HEY, Halloweens over! I think it's time to get it chilly in here, so we can rattle those skeleton bones right on out of here!
It's time for winter, it's time for snow, it's time for icicles, it's time to get it 10 below!
I'm unironically all for this. Screw spring and summer, let it be Wind Up to Christmas Time all year 'round.
It's November and there are still leaves and green in Georgia. Also we haven't had rain in months.
reminder that winter is the traditional spooky-time, not autumn, because the veil that separates the realm of the living from the realm of the dead is at its thinnest.
I was trick or treating today and a family gave me volume four of American Elf.
Is it good? I've heard it's good, but I'm not sure I understand it so far.
>>87387104
It's about a pedo.

>>87387206
What the fuck?
Why is this popular? Why did I get it instead of candy?
The protagonist of the last comic you read has to fight this thing.
What happens?
>>87386188
more badly written fanfiction moderated by inept people and threads barely /co/ related that no one really cares about

>The Defenders
I have no idea what this is, but they can probably take it.

Everyone knows you're a fucking egg, Rhondee.
Carolfags why the fuck does she suck so bad?
I cant find anything to like about her
Anything interesting about her is scrubbed away to make her presentable to normie bitches
Funny cause you posted the best carol
>>87385911
Stop fucking shilling this unlikable bitch here. So many terrible fucking characters out there and yet you choose to focus all your time and attention on this one.
You have 10 seconds to name a better Adult Swim show than this.
Xavier: Renegade Angel
Nah.
>>87385817
What's his fucking problem?

Too much sugar in his cereal.

Why are there no lewds of the cat women?
>>87387873
because they're uninteresting
>"Wow, what a beautiful baby girl. Now what should I name her..."
>"Oh yeah! I'll name her after my crazy bitch of an Ex!"
>>87384767
Honestly, this show only became remotely worth watching when it started becoming a high-budget reinterpretation of the silly-as-fuck 60's show.
It should just double down on the cornball at this point. The alternative was pretty goddamn boring.
>>87384767
Go away Krillin
I thought she was his niece
>TrollTrace goes online tomorrow noon
>everything you've ever said can be traced to you

How much shit are you in, /co/mrades?
Apparently a great deal since I don't know what this is.
>>87384695
Don't care. Any relationship I have doesn't feel genuine to me anyway.I only leave the house for work. Don't care if I lose my job. My parents will still take care of me no matter what. And when they die I'll just kill myself.
>>87384695
I've been banned like, a few dozen times from this one site for arguing with some keyboard warriors about nudity in comics and RPGs.
I think I'm good.
