[Kamikaze]

Annnd here I am late to the party. Ah well, if you get through the slog, my team and I create a scifi-action narrative comic called Kamikaze.

In a desolate future, feudal corporations hoard the last patches of fertile crop land. A young courier is unwittingly thrown into a life or death game of espionage and sabotage from which she may never escape.

Think MadMax mixed with Batman Beyond and you're in the right ball park. Kamikaze started out as an animated TV series pitch, a lot of executives loved what they saw, but well, we're not Batman so the financial folks found us way too risky. The webcomic is our way of proving we've got an audience, and that's why tapastic and it's readers are so important to us. This is our proving ground.

Anyway, it's got over 80 pages ready to go, and the first episode is totally complete. Right now we're showcasing a guest comic that some friend created while the team builds up our buffer. You can PM me here on tapastic or the forums. Hope you enjoy the comic when you get to it! :3

@Kamikaze, @TrustyShamrock, don't worry guys, I'll prioritize those that personally requested a review

[allenthomas]

If you want, please check out my action comic, Shadosassins. It has WELL over 30 pages. I could really use a critique on my writing as most of them that I get are based on artwork, which I'm trying to improve upon. You could simply just send me a private message either here on the forums or my tapastic profile since I'm mostly here. Thanks ahead of time if you get the time to check it out.

[TrustyShamrock]

I always appreciate constructive critiques, especially on writing (is the first comic I write by myself). I know that there are some language mistakes, unfortunately english is not my mother language
Thanks in advance

Alright, guys, the first reviews have been posted on our website. I'd suggest still reading them, as I try to get into as much about storytelling as I possibly can.

Here's a quick snippet of my reviews for the curious:

---

Circuron by @qomarualamry9
The beginning of your story should accomplish these things:

Set the tone/mood
Introduce your character
Make readers sympathize with your character
Blake Snyder says it perfectly in his book, Save the Cat,

I call it the “Save the Cat” scene. They don’t put it into movies anymore. And it’s basic. It’s the scene where we meet the hero and the hero does something — like saving a cat — that defines who he is and makes us, the audience, like him.

Dreaming a Dream by @yvettegustafsson
The best stories have characters that have these personal problems (things about them that they need to fix). Mr. Fredricksen of Pixar’s Up had to learn to move on with his life, to go out and make new adventures, to live in the present. He struggles with this all throughout the movie. He’s stuck in the past despite the fact that he’s out on an amazing adventure. He’s there, but he doesn’t even realize it. He doesn’t take the time to look around him.

Woody in Toy Story has to learn to accept the fact that Andy has other toys that he loves. Again, throughout the entire movie, he struggles with the need to accept Buzz as a friend, as an ally, and as a brother.

There is a real, concrete struggle going on, and they don’t just talk about it, they live it. We, as the audience, watch them live it. We’re not merely listening to them rant about how life is so unfair. We see them act and go through life, and we relate to them, we feel for them, we feel like we know them personally.

Good on you for doing this. I'd like to get back to writing reviews myself, been long out of practice this summer. Might hop back to it if circumstance allows it. We just started up our fifth issue. I think we hit the 100 page mark.

How best to contact you: PM here works fine.

This is a great thing that you're doing! I have no training in story telling and most of my friends can only give feedback on art, so this would be really helpful!

[yvettegustafsson]

Thank you so much for this review!! I really appreciate that you took the time to do this, it's awesome You had some really good points there on the storytelling and I will definitely take that with me into my other projects. When doing comics it's so easy to fall into your own head space and think that what you're doing is sufficient and the people around you that know and like you will hear that voice and understand it, while others - people who don't know you - can't possibly hear that voice while reading it. So this was very valuable to me. Thank you!

[concepcionbrothers]

You're welcome Yvette! I'm glad I was able to help out in any way I could
