Axe cop will chop your head off

Srsly.

So it's written by a 5 year old and drawn and put together by his 29 year old artist/writer brother.



Also, it's the best thing ever.

Also, Dave, what steps are you taking to make sure that these people become part of our comic hub?

I don't think you understand Dave, Axe Cop had tryouts and hired a partner. His name is Flute Cop.

They had dinosaurs to kill.

It's funny, but I do wonder how much of this is actually written by a 5-year old.

Honestly, I believe all of it is. That's why it was funny to me - it sounded just random enough to be a kid that age. If he's writing parts of it, he's doing an excellent job of faking the bizarre, stream-of-consciousness storytelling you get out of a kid that age. I could see him guiding it with questions though.


#23

I'd imagine the writing process goes down one of two ways. Either the 5 year old says what happens and the older brother does the layouts and stuff and edits it to fit a comic format. Or the kid does his own doodles and stuff and the older brother just redoes the art.

There is a video of them brainstorming one of the comics on the site. It is pretty entertaining in itself. I would say the artist guides the kid but doesn't really push the ideas around. He mostly asks questions then puts it into a coherent order.

I had my mom write down a story I told once when I was around that age.

I found it once.

Sounded about the same storytelling-wise, but god was it awful. I repeated myself like 30 times trying to get the point across.

I've got a six year old, and puts long stories together like this all the time. In fact he's always making books out of paper with exactly this kind of stuff in it.

I wrote a short story (my first short story) when I was 6. It was about a totalitarian queen and a team of heroes who try to rescue all her prisoners (held captive in concentration camps). They were all letters of the alphabet. (The main characters A E I O U, and heroes like I Jones, Bat M and S Man)

He says it wrong in the video and his brother interprets it for him.

Looking back on the stuff I wrote as a child, I can't even imagine how it made sense in my head. I remember what a HUGE paradigm shift it was for me in Kindergarten when we learned about punctuation. It dawned on me immediately, as a 5 year old, that everything I'd written up to then was one giant run-on sentences for PAGES and was therefore absolute garbage.

Youtube puts things in the url to determine how you get to the video, like if you got there from somebody's channel or from an embedded player or from related videos. Generally, just delete everything after the ampersand in the url and it'll embed no problem.

I had tried that with no success. I guess I deleted too much or something?

If you tried editing the original post, the forum software will automatically put any url in tags. So to get it to embed after a wrong url, you have to get rid of the url tags and fix the url.

The easiest way is to just use the url box right above the embed box. It gets rid of all the extra stuff and then all you need is to copy it directly into the forum.

Heh, you should see some of the stuff I drew as a kid/pre-teen.

I'm sure that in my parents' place there's at least one whole cardboard box of my 'cartoons' involving the adventures of Conan the Barbarian and Star Wars rip-offs with elements of the latest thing I was crazy about (e.g. one story involving the aliens of Independence Day), as presented by ca... cat-faced... people... including... a cat-woman... love... interest...

Oh my fucking God, I made furry art as a kid! *facepalm*

Philosopher B.

I sometimes liked recreating shit as a kid. Somewhere I still have a tablet filled with my pictorial recreations of every scene from Fieval Goes West. That's every. Single. Scene.

I had a real thing about Fieval Goes West.

Part of my interest in history came from the fact that I wanted to draw real-looking armor and outfits for my... eugh... furries. I loved illustrated history books to bits.

I can't imagine they need a forum like us. Beside the fact that we're possibly a bit too crude for a comic written by a 5 year old, the artist works for Slave Labor Graphics and has a couple graphic novels out already.

That's what I thought, too. But it's always worth a try.

Besides, more and more people are finding Twitter and Facebook an easier and more user friendly option. I've gotten a lot of responses to that effect.

Absolutely. Honestly, it reminds me of a song that my father helped me write at about that age. I had a fascination with sharks at the time. The words were:

Sharks are scary,
Very very scary!
Many attack people and turtles.
Sharks are scary.
Very very scary!

Every so often when I'm home, my father will play the tune that I wrote for it (embellished beyond what my five year old mind could write, because my father is amazing on the piano), and sing it. This happens with alarming frequency whenever he has guests.
