It has taken blood, sweat and tears (in that order), but I have finally
gotten my LEGO comic up and running. It is illustrated entirely in LEGO
bricks, pluss come “ditital remastering” (Photoshop). So without further
ado:
The address, you ask?

The comic navigation is really goofy. Using the next/prev links at the
bottom of the site’s main menu is not exactly intuitive, especially
considering that you can’t even see those links if you scroll to the bottom
of the actual comic pages- and that those links on the side are for general
site navigation as well. Separating them from the other links would help.
Removing them from the non-story pages would help too. But that would still
be awkward- it really needs links at the bottom of the pages, right below the
comic pictures.
In any case, the pictures look *much* better than before,
though the exterior of the main ship (the one getting attacked) is still a
bit bland.
As for the story, it looks like it could be good but there
still isn’t enough there to see where it is going. I am interested in
reading on, so get to work!

I apologize for the somewhat non-intuitive layout of the web page. There are
apparently some things that needed clarification/improvement.
1)I have now made the story more easily navigatable. If you press an image, you
will be taken to the next page. Thanks for the suggestion, everyone.
2)Some
people apparently have some difficulties viewing the page correctly. This is
not a problem with the web page, but with your browser. I use CSS, and you
probably have an old browser. For instance, navbars are fixed on the right-hand
side. This is further elaborated on the
web page.
3)The story is not
complete. I foresee years of work before all is finished. As of yet, there is
only the prologue that is
done (3 pages, 5 hours of work per page). Stay tuned for more updates.
Other things:
Thanks, Hafner. You should have seen how crappy the old chapter 1 looked. The
old prologue is actually still on Brickshelf somewhere (user name christh). The
unfortunate V.R.S.S. Black Hawk is indeed a boring ship to look at, but this
is for two reasons: First, it is an old-fashioned, butt-ugly bulk freighter.
Second, it’s because I’m not really good at building in nano scale. Check out
the much better MOCs on the Factions-page. I’m particularly proud of the Krawn Blademistress:
Thanks, Adrian. Sorry about the slight cursing in the comic, but I think most
people would come up with much harsher words if their space ship was shot
down...
