Fight me familia. But in all seriousness, what's wrong with it? DC stands for Detective Comics, therefore DC-tan = noir styled detective.

I have no idea what this is. Just drawing humanized/anthropomorphic versions of comic book companies I guess? is that right? Or are you doing cartoon channels too? I remember seeing something like that before.

Why are they all girls though? Can /co/ only design feminine versions of these things or is it a theme of some sort? I don't really understand.
>>
>>83802268
It's an /a/ thing, because /co/ really wants to be /a/.

Her sister could do in a pinch.
>>
>>83801932
Because the thread that created her was heavily biased towards making DC better than Marvel. They also made a shitty design for her by doubling down on detective rather than a investigative reporter motif.

Give them a similar artstyle, but different accessories. I think Marvel-tan is a good start with the swimsuit super suit, but DC is awful. Give DC a kinda crappy tacti-cool because of movies and how it's been going with them for a while.

DC is worse on forcing movies and tv in comics. Marvel just has more.

The movies have changed the comics and not reflecting it on the -tans shows how much of a DCuck you are.

It's Rebellion, technically, they also do a fair amount of other things than just 2000AD. Someone came up with a reasonable idea in the last thread, but it wasn't drawn (tiny scottish punk, i think).

Wait really? So it just stands for nothing?
That's rustles my autism to no end. Fuck them.
>>
>>83805369
I mean, it still technically stands for Detective Comics, they just don't refer to it like that because DC is faster to say and less confusing. I think what anon means is that it's not their primary focus anymore. I remember at one point they thought about changing the name to AC for Action Comics, but decided not to in fear that they'd confuse their audience .
>>
>>83805457
You know that sort of rustles my autism too since "DC Comics, Inc." is their official name, rather than "Detective Comics, Inc." or "DC, Inc."

We should really flesh out the other Pulbisher-tans, we've had enough talking about Marvel-tan and DC-tan, we've already got them down. What about Dark Horse-tan? I'm thinking of her as someone into action, really digs heavy metal. She gets along DC, Image and Archie (despite the radically different personalities) mostly. She's real fascinated by occult type stuff and dreams of one day hunting down an actual demon. Which is why she constantly goes to DC-tan and EC-tan for any leads on where she might find one.

Like are you fucking kidding me?

Start by sticking to Marvel, DC, IDW, and Dark Horse. Maybe Image.
But 3-5 is usually the best amount.
It worked for Console-tans, it worked for Channel-tans. It will work for these ones.

You need to develop them first.

We talked about Archie. She's into shipping, and is dumb, forgetful, and gets taken advantage of by people like Penders.
>>
>>83810510
Yeah, guess it makes sense to just start with the bare necessities, to be fair though. The only ones that actually have personailities so far are Marvel, DC, IDW, and Archie. The rest are glorified faces.
>>
>>83810710
Yeah, but what are some of her relations around the other tans? I can see her getting along with Dark Horse because of the crossovers, as well as Marvel for the same reasons. I could see her liking IDW-tan because of their love for retro stuff. has Archie crossed over with DC before?
>>
>>83806923
Hiveworks-tan should be removed since we didn't make it.
>>
>>83810510
Any other suggestions?
>>
>>83810860
let's be honest, this isn't going to last. people on the drawthread started channel tans because they liked their designs, not because they were jelly of the console-tans, like us to the channel-tans. it was a idea born with the only propose of having fun, and they are having fun. we don't. hell, in less than a week they got fanart outside of /co/, that means something, right? people like them, but this... its just a mess.

a better deal with be work with the channel-tans, i mean DC and Marvel are part of Disney, CN and Fox, and they already have those tans.

United we stand, divided we fall
>>
>>83810540
He's right though

>>83810510

where's dynamite-tan? is she too obscure?
they have ellis writing james bond right now
>>
>>83811033
>i mean DC and Marvel are part of Disney,

No they don't, they had concepts for how they would interact with the Channel-tans, but that's about it.
>>
>>83810999
Focus on polishing their designs and getting a character sheet or at least a good full body image you could post if people were to ask for a reference picture.
The ones on the OP are too badly drawn, no offense.

>>83811091
Yeah, but even 5 is already a lot.
Frankly considering /co/ you could kick it off with just DC/Marvel. You need to develop them as characters so people can make comics with their interactions.
>>
>>83811033
Except we didn't start this out of spite. We started this because someone was curious about what it would look like.
>>
>>83811201
>Frankly considering /co/ you could kick it off with just DC/Marvel.
That's the problem, isn't it? The rest of the -tans are going to languish in development hell while DC and Marvel get all the attention.

I wonder if we would actually become more productive if DC and Marvel were excluded until more get finished.
>>
>>83801769
This. Liking something too much makes for a bland and boring -tan. The best -tans all have some low-level sniping going on in their characterization.

You guys basically made DC-tan a Mary Sue. Or maybe more of a Manic Pixie Dream Girl.
>>
>>83801507
Why does Archie Girl have sonic shoes?
>>
>>83811324
We made DC-tan a detective because of Detective Comics, what DC stands for what don't you guys get about that?
>>
>>83811279
No one will care if DC and Marvel weren't at the forefront.
>>
>>83811364
This isn't about the detective part, you sperg. This is about the character having no real negative characteristics because you all are too precious about muh company.
>>
>>83811362
Archie does the Sonic books.
>>
>>83811279
Yeah, DC and Marvel are off on mount Olympus locked in eternal conflict, while the other publishers have slice of life interactions and occasional action scenes as they venture out into the online/webcomic zombie apocalypse for new titles and talent to sustain them. They have limited trade and a wary attitude to the manga publishers on the other side of town. Casual conversation includes reminiscing about fallen comrades, times they got blitzed on the green stuff and turned into cartoons, and fighting over the only boy.
>>
>>83801507

Tans need personalities.

Image-tan is intensely jealous of Marvel and DC. At every opportunity, she insists that some day soon she'll be bigger than both DC and Marvel combined. Content-wise she's identical to the Big Two, just as obsessed with low-brow, high-concept, dumb dirty action as they are. Her moral crusade against the Big Two stems from the superiority of her business model, because she wants every creator to be free to own their creations and create them however they please.

Fantagraphics-tan is friendly on the surface, but deep down is a smug hipster who thinks that she's the most intelligent and sophisticated of all the -tans. She acts modest and doesn't like to talk about her superiority though. Actually, she doesn't like to acknowledge the other -tans at all, because she's often embarrassed by their very existence. She has good relations with Image-tan (they talk about creators' rights) and Dark Horse-tan (they talk about manga and eurocomics), but she secretly thinks that they both have pleb taste. Her best friend is Drawn & Quarterly-tan, who lives up in Canada eh.

Self-Publishing-tan is a reclusive loner. Most of the other -tans aren't even aware that she exists. She only draws attention to herself when she rents tables at conventions to sell her crayon-drawn home-printed pamphlets. She doesn't "believe" in money, and only accepts cash in exchange for her comix "ironically". Otherwise you can find her hiding in bookstore cafes, mumbling to herself and avoiding eye contact while drawing unconventional, incomprehensible, beautiful scribbles on napkins. She thinks that Diamond distribution is a conspiracy and that the publisher-industrial complex is spying on her brainwaves to steal her ideas.

Now tell me why I'm wrong and what can be improved.

Really?
>>
>>83811873
Image-tan pursues film and television deals because she thinks they will make people take her more seriously.

And because every creator should enjoy the financial benefits of film/television adaptation optioning. It's all about the creators, you see.
>>
>>83811873
Image should be more professional and more business lady like. Despite this when she was younger she went through a huge punk stage and even has a tattoo from back then (of Spawn). She often tries to ignore it, but other tans such as Dynamite-tan constantly try to bring it up since she thinks Image-tan was infinitely cooler back then.

That's just boring as fuck fapbait so people can fawn over more nonexistant girls.

Fetish fueled garbage that will lose interest and fall into obscurity like usual. You guys make it hard to enjoy projects because of this.

>>83812917
nigga ya fucking crazy, most of the console tans are girls and the thing is older than Wii U, peoppe like cute girls, drawfags prefer cute girls over manly baras, they are fun to draw, if you want a fucking male tan then draw one yourself, do it nigga, i dare you
>>
>>83801507
Holy shit, did NO ONE teach these drawfags anything about character design?

The only half decent ones are Hive and Image, and Archie gets a pass because it's so blah that there isn't anything at all for it to get wrong.

But what the fuck is up with the rest? I know that the concepts are hodgepodges but if triple fusion threads can make good character designs in the end, I don't see how this one can't either.

At least fix up DC and Marvel, if you guys want any of this autism to catch on for a long period of time.

>>83813191
And it's applied horribly because it makes it look like Inuyasha,
White long hair, red costume, doesn't help the cap wings make it look like inuyasha's ears
It needs a red and white costume with regular looking hair. More Spider-man references too like web pattern,
Also why does DC look like an edgy teen?

why is DC-tan a girl? DC is way more male oriented

In fact just make DC-tan Batman

It's suppose to be noir themed. It's literally in DC's name. Also, I'm pretty sure you're the only one who thought of Inyuasha when you saw it. Also, the webs would be a bit much, no? It seems it would just distract. More simplistic the better. Maybe a little symbol on one of the pouches at most.

>>83813007
I really can't argue that. I'm not even complaining about tans being girls. Just the fact that every OC /co/ shits out is fetish pandering waifu bait. I just want this board to come together and make something more creative than this considering it's the comics and cartoons board. Maybe I just give this place too much credit. I see with my eyes how shit it's become but maybe I really haven't accepted it.

Ok so Marvel-tan has Stan Lee glasses, Gwen Stacy hair, Cap wings, the psylocke leotard, X-Men belt, and pouches and stuff. DC has... a coat, slightly wonder woman-ish dress, and the Watchmen symbol which isn't really even that much mainstream DC?

ok... that doesn't say anything about people recognizing it as DC comics

X-Men is Marvel to its core. Stan Lee, Captain America (and by extension the Avengers), Pouches and Belts is a huge callback for 90s Marvel, Kirby krackle, hell even Gwen Stacy is more recognizable as Marvel than the Comedian is for DC.

Things only get popular because movies come out about it. A few decades ago people wouldn't be able to tell you if X-Men was Marvel or DC, at least not as many people as now. Regardless, it shouldn't matter if it's recognized from a certain company. Most people I know probably think Spawn is from Dark Horse. The fact is that it was extremely influential and it came from DC, so it deserves some sort of recognition.

I think the domino mask is enough. It's all the costume is really missing. Also, I think we should get rid of DH's hat, put more emphasis on the fact that her coat is a fur coat and give her Hellboy's hand.
>>
>>83814384
why not? /co/ constantly drools over her, wouldn't that make sense to include it?
>>
>>83814260
guy who drew her here.

She's very against "the man" and hates big businesses and governments but hates peaceful liberals just as much. She listens to punk and ska music and her fave film is Dirty Harry.

She acts smug around DC and always iplies their superiority towards them, but is good freinds with Vertigo. Dislikes Marvel due to her super powers.

any of that shit good?
>>
>>83814407
Fantagraphics-tan was done as a joke.
>>
>>83814463
Too distracting, it would just be so much in contrast to the rest of her outfit. Like if I was to dress for a funeral, but forgot to take my clown shoes off.

Including joke Fantagraphics is better than having no Fantagraphics at all.

meh the jacket need's work it doesn't really make sense. it doesn't look like constantine's (which really shouldn't be for DC in the first place) and doesn't really convey a detective look. that hat needs to go also, it looks terrible.

Update on DH-tan's personality:
She's constantly trying new things and is interested in many hobbies, like Anime, Movies, Video Games, European shit,Creator-owned comics (though not as much as she use to be) etc. but she likes Horror the most, EC-tan being one of her closest friends. She generally get's along with all of the tans Collaborating with several of them: Archie, DC 2000 AD, Self Publisher. She likes talking to Image-tan about Creator-owned comics (though Image thinks her taste is better, even though she stole Madman from DH). She also enjoy's talking to IDW about old movies.

Cartoonfags are way more criative than comicfags.

I could name every single fault on the project so far. To start with, you guys are developing the design "together" this is always bad and always end on the hand of autistic people. The Channel tans were made by one single guy, and had only one detail changed on CN tan.

Also, the guy that made the Channel tans thought on their personalitties and work policies and INJECTED it on his design, made it their reflection. You guys are doing the opposite, trying to do designs before doing personalitty when it should be done at the same time by few people, not a large group. Also, Channel tans have much more going on their designs than "references to things that we ave on our Channel".

Also...detective DC because of the name? SERIOUSLY? By this line of thought people would have done CN tan a boring white colar worker in a company.

DC has nothing to do with detectives of two centuries ago like Sherlock, you could at least have done something more like Constantine and a magical side, because DC is famous for being full of magician nutjobs like Moore, Morisson and Gaiman.

Also, Marvel tan should be aproached on a more neutral wayou, recognizing that she is more casual friendly, and the bad and good side of it could be explored - she could be an interesting foil for DC, that is more traditional and shut in.

You could have made a dictomy os scifi and magic too, like many do with the two companies here.

Hell, if I had the time I would redesign DC and change some few things about Marvel, and I'm sure that they would look better because I'm a profissional on the are, BUT we are so far on the project tgat it would cause endless butthurt.

Also, another tip: focusing on less popular tans and companies without developing the most popular ones is retarded. They are mainly what bring people here in the first place. You are making the project a crowded place with underveloped tans that have no character going for them.

Again, the opposite of the Channel tans, that started with the main 3, and developed the minor characters later.

You guys makes it like Warner Brothers making the DC movie verse, while Channel tans resemble the MCU more.

>>83820727

Yours is cleaner, but I like the theme of the first one more. For me, IDW works really well as the kid running around excitedly smashing their transformers and turtles together and making pew-pew-Kabooom noises. Out of universe it's also one of the youngest and smallest companies, which lends itself to often being overlooked and not taken seriously by the Big Two and hanging out with the other younger and smaller ones.

Again though, I do like how clean and uncluttered your redesign is. Its like the Archie and Image one - there's some references to the things they create, but its not piling on loads of them, and it tells you something about the character (in image's case it's "I'm a bit slutty, but relatively sophisticated about it", while IDW's is "I wish I'd starred in an early 90s live-action kids show"). Were it not for the bandanna I could imagine someone actually wearing that getup in the real world. The Dark Horse and in my opinion the 2000AD one seem to be more about referencing things

But do any Company-Tans have pics of their sexy feet?

Wow, this went to shit fast. The first thread was great because everyone seemed to agree on what they should look like. Second thread same, but a few people complaining, nothing big. Third thread is when everyone went full autismo and kept complaining about how "why don't they look like this" "why do they look like that?" and yet, refuse to draw anything for themselves. They just kinda expect people to do what they say. This is why we can't have nice things.

>>83826606
I don't think we should. We'd go over board with concepts. I think we should focus on expanding the ones we have's personalities for now. That and redraws for the ones who don't have very good quality drawings for them. Basically just polishing for IDW, Dark Horse, and Self Publisher

>>83820827

We came up with on in the last thread relating about how newer readers have a harder time getting into DC than Marvel. It translates into her whole detective thing, where if she's on a case she'll think herself logically superior to everyone else, and doesn't really slow down to explain how she reached her conclusions, just kinda expects the person she's with to know and be on the same page as her.

>>
>>
>>83841953
>newer readers have a harder time getting into DC than Marvel

That's not because DC is a cool detective, it's because Marvel is the bubbly, hot girl who's fun to be around (although she can get annoying quickly) and DC is the weird goth chick who never brushes her hair and still dresses like it's 1999, unless she's wearing something weird like bunny ears in a bid to seem "approachable." In fact, everyone just feels uncomfortable for her.
>>
>>83842353
Wouldn't that be more of Self Publisher-tan's schtick?

If Marvel fans and DC fans can't stop fighting with each other then we should ban Marvel-tan and DC-tan from these threads.

It's literally mostly people complaining either

A) That Marvel-tan isn't a fat dyke with a shaved head.

B) That DC-tan isn't based off her terrible movies for God knows fucking why.

C) That their favorite character isn't represented in the tans, because fuck having it seem organic and blend well together.
>>
>>83842597
But you still can't ban them. You're not a janitor, you're not a moderator, you can't do it.

No matter how cancerous the Marvel/DC fanatics become, no matter how many discussions they derail with their arguments, no matter how often the thread devolves into petty bickering, you can't do it. It is not something that you have the capability to do.

Since things seem to be getting calmer, and hopefully more rational. I think it would be a good time to discuss whether we should start writing our concepts down in a pastebin and start archiving the threads. Anyone else?

>>83842746

>art critics who don't know anything about drawing (or tact)
>and one poster who has "never even heard of Boom Studios"
>>
>>83843048
Ahhhh, gotcha. I think we should focus on getting more organized first, everything here is a cluster fuck. We need a better way to format this and save our concept for their personalities and interactions. As well as a page for writing fags to write whatever they want about whatever character. We already have a page for the fan art, so that's covered. Also, a set date for you idea. I'm thinking Saturday should be Publisher-tan day.
>>
>>83843097
Exactly what I mean.
>>
>>83843108
We should forget about weekends. It sounds stupid, but there are too many projects during that period. Batman Threads, /co/ Bizarre Adventures, /coc/ and now the Channel-tans.

These threads are slow, beginning Monday could well last a week. Why not Monday? or maybe Wednesday.
>>
>>83843221
Monday everyone is probably exhausted from work. Wednesday sounds about right.

>>83843221
>>83843271

>>83843358
Wooonderful. When is their weakest day? We honestly don't need that crap in these threads.
>>
>>83843411
I suggest Thursday. there is a lot of activity and people start to relax.
>>
>>83802268
From experience, when anthropomorphizing concepts, people tend to gravitate toward female characters rather than male ones.

Even if you come up with an arguably better and more fleshed out male first, the someone just posts one female version of the concept and it takes of like wildfire.

No I'm not bitter or anything.
>>
>>83843462
Okay, cool, so we in agreement that we should start having these threads on Thursday? If so let's focus on a copy pasta for the OP.
>>
>>83843485
That's a bad idea. Thursday to Friday it's when most of the current cartoons get new episodes. That means that until the weekend people only discuss that topic.
>>
>>83843520
Yeah it makes sense, that is why the Channel-tans have their threads on weekend.
>>
>>83843555
>>83843520
How about Sunday?
>>
>>83843358
I think that would be a good thing.
>>
>>83843578
That's part of the weekend, and the worst day since people have to work the next day. So I guess... Tuesday?

>>
>>83843998
Yeah, sure, I don't see why we can't negotiate with one another. We just need to get the last link for >>83843684
Basically, I just went through all our previous threads and copy pasted what I could find of what the other anons were discussing the personalities would be like so we could see if we should go ahead and paste bin it. Here it is:
>DC: DC-tan is super obsessed with the multiverse and keeps trying to map it out, treating it as one of her cases since she's a detective. The other board-tans keep trying to calm her down on it, but she just makes some kind of Gentry reference whenever they do so they get a little weirded out and leave her alone. DC is not well liked by Marvel's friends, sometimes bullied, and in social situations ranges from static to outright obnoxious. People will look at you weird for talking to her. Get to know her in private and you'll find she has multiple interesting hobbies she's very knowledgeable about, and lots of great tidbits and anecdotes to tell.

>Marvel: Marvel is the popular girl who gets all the attention. She's the life of the party and makes any social gathering better, but get her alone and she'll quickly run out of things to talk about and expose the fact she has very few outside interests or hobbies.

>IDW: IDW-tan is a huge nostalgiafag with a huge collection of toys from 80s properties

>Entertaining Comics: Not a lot, however we did develop that she was into the super natural and loved horror and seances.

>Archie: girl version of Archie Andrews

>Dark Horse: is a metal fan that spend his time watching/reading anything horror related, mostly from the 50-60 kind of dark and gritty. Loves movies and television. Dark Horse should just be a straight action girl, with maybe a bit of a Lovecraft fetish.
(1/2)
>>
>>83844052
(2/2)


>Image: would be kind of edgy, like in the 90s Gen X-er way but she'd also be pretty self aware and able to laugh at herself about it (because of Spawn). Maybe she would look a bit like Invincible or Witchblade. The idea I like most for Image is that she used to be wild and edgy, but now she's very in control of her image, and a bit snobby, so she's really ashamed of her days of yore. She's also very proud of having so many critical darlings. She rails against Marvel and DC-tan a lot, but is more similar to them than she realizes.

>Self Publisher: Here she is. Weird, kinda fat and unpopular and maybe a bit paranoid in the style of Alan Moore. She's a genius savant though, very creative and sits in her room all day writing & drawing the coolest shit that Marvel-tan and DC-tan would probably rip off if they ever saw it.

>Vertigo: DC-tan little sister that loves to play with her big sister.

>Malibu: Malibu-tan is Marvel's weirdo little sister that thinks she's a Man in Black.

So what do you guys think, all this stuff okay?
>>
>>83843998

I don't mean to company war (I've got no stake in it Tharg the Mighty best girl, but I have a couple of suggestions for DC and Marvel.

DC is the oldest of all of them, somewhat self-important and can come across as aloof and out of touch - she's from a family with a long history who made important contributions in the past, but have been riding on their laurels for a long time. There's hints of some very dodgy business dealings in the past, and DC can display a really hard-nosed business sense sometimes (which can alienate others, to her detriment). She expects you to know how important she is, to do your homework before you talk to her, and to treat her interests with deathly seriousness, no matter how silly. She does, however, admire classical heroism, and does try to make amends if she realises she's done wrong. Mostly she just really wants to be liked, but doesn't really know how to do that and is really jealous of how easy it seems to be for Marvel. Big sister of Vertigo, slightly more complicated relationship with Rebellion based on the bad old days of Fleetway/IPC and the fact she seems like a bad influence on little V.

Marvel's a little younger than DC (who she teases about being an old lady) and the light and soul of the party. Fun, approachable, loves a good "switch your brain" off blockbuster movie. There's more going on upstairs than people realise, but she certainly comes across a bit shallow. Perhaps aware of this, she's recently has gotten a lot more abrasive about social activism (something she's always been interested in, but not to this extent).

There's also the voice.
>The voice?
Yeah, the voice, you know, the way she communicates?
>Like a dialect or an accent or what are we talking about?
Kind of an accent, kind of a dialect. Very Bendis.
>Bendis? Like the writer.
Exactly.
>I'm hip.

The more you communicate with her, the more it seems to spread to her conversation partners. It's uncanny.
>>
>>83844638
The thing is, DC and Marvel are both quite insecure and want attention, but they go about it in different ways. Marvel is, for all her good qualities, a drama magnet who constantly, constantly stirs shit for attention. She does care about the things she talks about, but at the same time she absolutely has to be the centre of attention at all times. If she can do it in a positive way - great! If not, its just endless. Most people ignore it by now. There's only so many times you can hear "Things will never be the same again!"

DC, on the other hand, tends to bottle it all the bad feeling up until it explodes into a major crisis or (even a hypercrisis!) that goes on forever and seems to infect everything she does. Maybe she'll remodel the house, maybe she'll get a major makeover, maybe she'll just throw out all her old art and set light to it, but ultimately she always calms down and goes back to "normal". Whereas Marvel's tantrums happen frequently enough to make eyes roll, DC's tend to attract a lot more comment.

The pastebin is missing ideas from this thread, e.g. >>83811873.

Diamond is Diamond-Kun.

>If a publisher has a personality and a design, but no drawings, then you can make one.
This was poorly-worded (it sounds like you shouldn't draw -tans that have already been drawn). Let me rephrase:

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.

>>
>>83844638
>>83844715
Okay, maybe we could have the whole thing with DC into her detective work. Whenever she has people with her on cases she's very snappy and expects everyone to be on the same page, because of this she constantly skips the need to go explain how she reached certain conclusions, she just expects the people who have been paying attention to already know how she reached her conclusions. This alienates many people from her, since her work just seems a bit too daunting.

>>
>>83844638
Comic strip-kun should be the oldest. A snarky old man trapped in a little kid's body. He's the voice of wisdom, but everyone just ignores him since he's "not relevant anymore". This bothers Comic strip-kun, however, when this happens Archie-tan, Self Publisher-tan, or IDW-tan try and cheer him up since they still believe what he says is worth listening to.
>>
>>83850568
>Self Publisher-tan
I think you mean Fantagraphics-tan

Self Publisher-tan takes delight in another corporate publisher becoming irrelevant.
>>
>>83850628
Fantagraphics-tan is a bit stuck up as well. Maybe just Archie-tan and IDW-tan.

Comic strip-kun should wear overalls and a stethoscope, carry a sword and have a dog.

>>83850731
You what, mate.

Fantagraphics has a great relationship with newspaper comics.

http://www.fantagraphics.com/newspaper-strips/

>>83850731
They published comic strip collections too though, they and IDW are the best at it. They make way more sense than Archie.
>>
>>83850402
>>83850440
My thought was that it made sense for them to be related since Vertigo's still an imprint of DC, the earliest Vertigo titles like Swamp Thing, Sandman, Shade and Hellblazer (which inform the design) started out life as mainstream DC titles, and most of the classic Vertigo stuff has been folded back into DC.

Plus sibling rivalry is always good fodder. DC's off being a fine upstanding member of the community, not even using any naughty words, while Vertigo hangs out with that British delinquent and that tramp Image. They're probably even SMOKING!

Okay, guys, updated the copy pasta based on suggestions. The things that changed are the pastebin for ideas, explaining that we have -kuns, and the How can I help section. What do you think?:

>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, named -kuns, like Diamond-kun.

Maybe instead of stuck-up, Fantagraphics is a little pretentious and just otherworldly in its enthusiasm for art . All art, but particularly the stuff off the beaten track. Not a hipster doing it because its cool, but full on weird accented crazy joy in sharing with the world all the neat stuff it finds or makes, completely oblivious to anyone else not quite getting it. Imagine a conversation between it and the newspaper comics guy

"Don't you see dahlink, the pathos of thees poor boy! The eeexquisite ag-ony, the futility of struggle against a world wheech causes heem so much pain and yet he persists!"
"Uh... sure mac. Me, I likes it when the dog does the Red Baron thing. It's funny, 'cause its his house"
"Oh the dog! The positive yang to the boy's yin, thee joy of the story made manifest! [conspiratorially] Tell no-one, but I have fluffy slippers in his likeness! So good! So warm! And they make my feet dance!"

Oh yeah, I only thought DC and Vertigo would be related because, well, they are. The others would be friends, rivals or acquaintances.

You know, DC and Marvel seem to map quite closely to Betty and Veronica - best friends and worst enemies, one's rich and snooty while the other's popular and ditzy, and if they're falling out everyone in town knows about it. They even look a bit alike.

You can imagine Archie-tan watching them do their thing and going "This is really familiar, and I don't know why."

Oh, yeah, Vertigo and DC are sisters, just like Marvel and Malibu are sisters. I thought you were saying they were all related. And yeah, just noticing the parallels between the big two and Betty and Veronica.

>>83853258
Rebellion Publishing

What's wrong with using the correct name?
>>
>>83852854
It's Rebellion now, but where it gets tricky is that 2000ad (and the Judge Dredd Megazine) were originally published by a British general publishing company IPC Magazines and then Fleetway. They did not take very good care of the comics, because, frankly, the bosses neither understood nor cared what it was they did. There's all sorts of horror stories, from your basic comic company scumbaggery like stealing artist and writer credits and withholding IP rights, to using original art as waste paper or floor coverings when there was a flooded office. There's a reason Alan Moore fled to the states and originally spoke very highly of DC (right up until they did him over) and most of the rest of the crew followed.

There were several points, particularly in the 90s, when the whole comic was going to be shut down because the managers didn't want to bother with it any more. The reason Rebellion (a small video game company) now owns them is because back in 2000 or so they wanted the rights to make a Strontium Dog game and discovered it was almost as cheap to just buy the whole enterprise, top to bottom. It's much better run now, and they've even tempted some of the old crew of writers and artists who swore off it back.

So Rebellion, as it stands, has a history and a heritage of fine comics, but it also has a horrible past (as IPC/Fleetway) of abuse and neglect. DC had the most direct contact with 2000AD in the Fleetway years (in the form of the Batman crossovers), while Vertigo exists in large part thanks to the British Invasion writers and artists who were fed up with being treated like dirt in their homeland.

So yeah, "cousin" is probably the closest approximation, but Rebellion probably doesn't like to think about it. Thngs are good now! Don't bring up the past!

ok so here's an idea, short Sin City-esque comic about DC-tan trying to find out who's been murdering the other tans, overly gritty and needlessly violence with lots of inner monolougeing from DC-tan.
>>
>>83854498
There could be a side plot where Vertigo-tan keeps trying to help her big sister, but DC-tan keeps turning her away since it's too dangerous. This only ends with Vertigo-tan, being the head strong girl she is, to try and solve to mystery herself to prove that she isn't "just a little kid". This doesn't end well, as the killer ends up kidnapping Vertigo-tan, adding to the levity of the situation on DC-tan.
>>
>>83853832
It's hard to know who knows and who doesn't know. Some know, some don't know, some think that they know but they actually don't know (like the Anon who thought it was IPC and not Rebellion).
>>
>>83854572
I like it

DCtan has her suspicions about it being Marvel tan behind the killings, but it stems mainly from the fact they used to be good friends until Marvel Tan pushed DCtan away to achieve stardom and success. Marvel-Tan's manager is a rat in a suit. Turns out Marvel-Tan is innocent and that "Self-Publisher-tan is the true killer and have killing the other tan's out of jealousy"

The determine it was her due to a piece of tin foil on the ground at one of the murder scenes. After what seemed like forever of DC-tan trying to convince Marvel-tan to help her, Marvel agrees. Eventually they find 2000 AD-tan, who they think is going to try and stop them, but wants to help. Not because she likes them or anything, only because "The squirt is kinda okay."

I gotta be honest the one thing I hate about /co/ is our projects, 9/10 its a incoherent mess because all we do is throw ideas on the wall and hope they stick.

Also here's my idea for "dc" tan which is making her look like a more golden age wonder woman, or early supergirl. I honestly think the supergirl would work better seeing how you can just slap on the DC logo making her easier to understand that she represents DC.

The thing I'm never sure about is if they're supposed to be wearing costumes or whether its supposed to be something you could imagine a real person wearing. Like, with yours I can well imagine tha working well as a costume, but not as a "going to the shops" outfit. Also got to say, I like the cape. Capes are much more emblematic of DC's output over the years than coats.

>>83855131
>She has a framed photo of Grant Morrison on her desk.

DC-tan starts try to list off people who have a bone to pick with Image-tan. At one point the idea of Self publisher-tan crosses her mind, but she quickly brushes it off since she wouldn't be able to pull something off that big. In the end she was actually right, Self Publisher-tan had a partner, which is why some of the deaths took place at the same time (ruling out her theory about some multiversal entity). She was getting help from Fantagraphics-tan, who also wanted to get rid of all the embarrassing other publisher-tans. As she's giving a speech she's back stabbed by Self Publisher-tan, "I never did trust a big name publisher like you."
>>
>>83855568
>She has a framed photo of Grant Morrison on her desk.
Why Morrison, out of interest? There's been a lot of really influential DC writers and artists over the years that have done as much or more than him, and were certainly more exclusive.
>>
>>83855687
In the previous threads we established that she was a detective who's "big case" was trying to solve the secrets of the multiverse and it's relation to a thing called a "hyper crisis". It's right up Morrison's alley. You can check out the pastebin we have if you like.

>she was a detective who's "big case" was trying to solve the secrets of the multiverse and it's relation to a thing called a "hyper crisis"

Thats the most typical /co/ I ever heard.
>>
>>83855740
Isn't that a bit... flavour of the month isn't quite the right word I want, but I'm not sure how else to put it. Fanboyish, maybe? Like, I get Morrison is really popular on /co/, and he is currently quite influential at the company, but if the tan is supposed to be representative of DC as a whole it should really have things from its whole history. Morrison's also done lots of work for all the big companies over the years, even if you had to pick one single guy to associate with modern DC I don't think he'd be the best candidate anyway that'd probably Geoff Johns, for better or worse.
>>
>>83855992
Majority rule type thing. Everyone agreed with it in the thread where we started developing her. Also it plays into the whole detective comics thing. Regardless, we'd be here forever if we were to argue about how DC should and shouldn't act and it would eventually devolve into a shit flinging contest knowing /co/. It's why we have three different variations. Golden Age, Iron Age, Modern. That way, the artist/writer can chose which part of her timeline best suits what they want to do.

Yeah, Miller would work. He's also relatively recognisable. Bill Finger would also be period appropriate, though who knows whether anyone would recognise him.
>>
>>83856650
We only did three since we wanted to go ahead and work on others. I'm pretty sure Iron was before modern, I could be wrong, the ordering of that always confuses me.
