I looked around a little, did some searching, and with the exception of the SG community comic I didn't find any single thread dedicated to usercreated gamingrelated comics. Shame on you. ;)
So, to get the ball rolling I decided to create a topic myself and I hope at least SOME of you will help adding content. Can't draw? Doesnt matter. Draw stick figures if you will, the main point is the punchline. Hey, if XKCD (http://xkcd.com/) can do it, you can.
So, here's my (first) contribution...

Good work sir! :thumbsup: (hmm, community comic in the making here maybe :undecided: :grin:)
You're right about the not being able to draw thing, although that's clearly not a problem you suffer from yourself - I can't draw and I never let that hold me back :grin:

Thanks for the kind words, sir. :lol:
I love drawing! It's about a year since I started drawing in earnest. I got myself a drawing tablet on a whim and was instantly hooked. And not just digitally. I love pen and paper drawing as well.
As an example, this is the first work I did...

I currently use Photoshop CS2. Got Corel Painter X too, but haven't really had time to learn how to use it, so I kinda suck at Painter. Got Illustrator CS2 too, but haven't used it much. I'm not really a huge vector-fan. Makes the drawings look impersonal, somehow.
Got Manga Studio EX 4 yesterday and will spend a little time to learn it. Hope it tuns out to be as fun and good as it seems to be. :)

Cant wait to see what you come up with for a SG comic.

Do sprite comics count? I used to do one about a year ago. It was doing well, but I haven't worked on it in quite a while.(i'm supposed to be animating it, but all the original fan's went away, so I decided to cancel the project.)

Why not? The important thing is that it's got something original in it and that the message/story/punchline you're trying for gets through, not the SHAPE it's in. Go out there and release your funnybone and creativity. :P
