Your oldest comic?

[eleoza]

Oh... yeah xD I started drawing comics when I was 12 or so. I still have my 1st comics, they're precious to me ^^

[miesmud]

HA that's funny, today I found a folder full of drawings from when I was 6 to10. (and other folders with old Christopher Heart "manga" drawings I made. So awful omg!)
So I also found this gem! It's all in my language with some common spelling errors haha.

It's about a girl named Lotte that dreamed that there was a cat in the tree, and suddenly the cat disappears, Lotte falls in love and then there's a bird making cat sounds? It's super weird even I don't understand it

I think I was 7 when I made this, and I'm glad I can say I've improved since back then.

couldn't find the first comic which was terrible mary sue zelda mess. Found my second oldest comic:


Some anime thing I made when I was 13/14. The plot needed massive amount of rewriting and I posted comics on a whim.
I still use it as inspiration now and again even if 10 years has almost passed.

I gotta give kudos to any 7 year old who decides drawing complex extinct lizards is the place to jump into making comics. Damn.

[Mharz]

This is the oldest thing I could dig up. I think I drew this around 2008 or 2009.

It's unfortunate but my past self didn't have the guts to push through it. Though I'm definitely planning to remake this in the future.

I've been writing stories since i was 8.
But my first comics is actually a predicessor to a comic I'm working on now.

I sadly have no art left of it (i burned them) but the plot was this
A young princess was turned into a frog as a child. And only when by herself or with someone who knows who she is/knows she is a person can she be human. So the queen who discovered this and was thought to have gone mad takes her into the woods to live as a human in solidarity.

Till of course she runs into a couple adventurers and decides she wants to actually live instead of hiding. And end up going in a quest and actually meeting other people turned animals.

The universe was suppose to be very fairytale, so beauty and the Beast, the swan princess, other tales showed up. It was full of all the fairytale bits, the prince pretending to be not a prince, a a evil witch/stepmother, the works. It was interesting to say the least. I think i made it when i was 14.
I scrapped the story but kept the universe. Which is currently in use.

I started a webcomic back in 2005 which is archived in my Deviantart folders. It was slapstick Superhero stuff which was ok to begin with, but I ran out of ways to keep it novel which is why I've went in to something more grounded this time round. I was a bit spoilt with Go-Bee as it became quite popular, people still ask about him today. Anyway the portal to the comic is here

I just want to say I love you all so much for sharing all of these! Especially some of the kids comics, those of you who still have photos or scans of those....aaaah, they're really awesome!! Apparently I'm a big softie, I did not anticipate this when starting this thread, ha.

[isaacfriedman]

lol thanks. I've actually always preferred drawing things that aren't humanoid simply because it's harder for viewers to spot any mistakes XD It's why I always say my specialties are monsters and machines.

[apurviance]

I have some grade school gag comics somewhere that are better than THIS, but here's what I was making about 4 years ago. This is what happens when you don't practice for over a decade. Hey, I had other hobbies.

Image from an old series here on Tapastic about weird historical demises.

[feuersichel]

I made my first comic, when I was around 9 or 10.

It's about a group of animals who got attacked by the evil Kuhorn (they have bat-like ears have one horn and work for the evel king. Also they can fly). But Ridi (the cow with the black-white face) is the fastes on the planet and rescues them.

Because she is a stunt-girl she has a bunker filled with TNT (Dünamidanien). They hide down there. While the Kuhorn try to figure out the code, they play in Ridi's home. But then, the Kuhorn break the entrence and tryed to capture them.

What a luck, Anabelle (The strongest of the planet) was there and freed them.
So the evil Kuhorn had to return empty-handed to their king.

I just checked and one of my oldest comic that I have posted online on my old DA account is going to be 10 years old this year I did some fancomic before that, but I think that was my first original work.

Thicker than Blood

[nattbear]

You see... I have some even older comics, but they are not on my pc, so I'll show one of the oldest I have here.. D;

All on pencil.. ( I sucked really hard on finishing stuff with pen... AND I still do O__O)! Only my tablet can save me NOW!!

[niinasalmelin]

I don't have any scans of them but I started to do this dog/human-comic when I was 5 years old or something. My sister is two years older than me and when she got into making comic I followed straight away, like a good sister I am. I did them till I was 13 years old. Still revisit them sometimes. There was this snowman who looked like a mop-head and narcissistic parrot who were total BFF's. They were everyone's favourite. Perhaps I'll re-do some of the stories someday

[Gaspode12]

Back in the day I had a photo comic on smack Jeeves called The Cherries. It centred around me and my mate basically getting drunk and taking amusing photographs that I would later turn into a little strip. I like to think my art skills have improved somewhat since these early days! I think it's still up on smackjeeves even after all these years!

[igneriss]

I'll scan my first 'proper' comic (aka one with actual, poor storyline and speech bubbles) tomorrow, but here's something that I guess is my very first one c;

I know it doesn't really look like a comic, but I'm 80% sure that it was supposed to be one, just everything that was said and what happened between random panels was only in my head CX I don't remember the story here, but it looks like they are transforming and riding to help the girl in a coffin (or is she just sleeping in her bed...????) OR they are tranforming, helping the girl and then riding away CX

[Kura]

Oldest one I could find on the computer. Most of my old stuff is not scanned, but I know I got it hiding somewhere.

[dratinigirl]

This is the oldest piece of digital art I have online, and it's a naruto comic that I made when I was 11:

[NickRowler]

I think this might be my first...I dunno. I made it when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade. I really hated the Cookie Monster song....

I also have this from 4th grade.

I think this is my first digitally colored comic, most likely from middle school

[Shanny8]

I been drawing ever since I could hold a pencil, but I used to do these 8 page "comic books" on notebook paper back in my high school days. I had one scanned, but it's on another backup hard drive in which I have put away at the moment. All my old drawings are put away in a box, and I havent looked at them in the past 2 or 3 years.
