2008 Holiday Comic Contest

Here's the main topic poll! Read the following 4 submissions and vote for your favorite!

CHOICE 1 (Linkmaster30000)
Holiday Comic 2008

CHOICE 2 (Havok Dryke)
Little Bobby's Christmas

CHOICE 3 (Mukora)
Mr. Cockers' Christmas

CHOICE 4 (Keaton-King)
The Link's Christmas
Disclaimer: Keaton-King thought that the comic had to be based off of the characters from Adventures of the Links, hence why his Links are fairly similar to mine. Just so that there's no confusion, this is still his, and if you like it the best, vote for it - don't let the confusion affect your choice. Thank you. ~LM30K

My superextraspecial comic didn't get in -.-

Good luck to everyone, and may the best spriter win!


Edit: This one

It was difficult for me to choose which one would get in, since you submitted two of them. In the end, I picked this one, since it was the second one you sent in (and I figured that you wouldn't send it in if you didn't want it in), and I personally think it's the better of the two. Sorry about the confusion - I should've said "one strip per spriter", but I assumed it was a given. My bad. Is it okay?

LinkMaster: I thought it was very funny and kept with your comic's spirit, but that goes without saying
Havok Dryke: Very funny, though I wouldn't say Santa doesn't exist, He's watching you...How Come Little Bobby didn't get shocked like Little Jimmy?
Mukora: By Joe I believe we may have met in real life before
Keaton-King: Quite funny, though I wouldn't save in JPG, it makes it hard to read, few minor Typos and I didn't get the punchline for Purple

Yeah, if you thought #2 was the best then that's fine.

I saved it in JPG, because I'm really not good at this comic thing... I have made one sprite comic in my life before, Nintendo United, but my laptop crashed, and the comic got deleted before I could publish it... Also, I use regular Paint when I create a comic.
By the way... What typos? I must have missed something...

PS: Purple didn't have a well punchline... All the punchlines I came up with would have made the comic uninappropriate...!

Next time, I'll save it in something else... Any suggestion to what type?

PNG or GIF, Anything other than JPG or BMP (Bitmap)
Good
PNG
GIF
Bad
JPG
BMP

and the spelling errors, "A" instesd of "An" and vice-versa
you spelled "Buy" "By", like I said Minor

Oh, that... My bad

HAH! I just read the extra-special comic. Had that been the one, I'da voted for you, that was great! I liked how he granted link's wish to kill him, but not Jimmy's XBOX. And the bat reindeer! The whole thing was really funny. And the Evilometer... I really laughed! I like the little needle that was almost all good! And the perspective on Link's bed was impressive, you really pulled that off. And Timmie's present!

Anyway, out of the entries, they were pretty equal in funniness and graphics- but, I had to go Keaton-King as he was the least shy about saying 'Merry Christmas'!

Sorry I couldn't enter!

Hmm... They all where awesome, it's hard to decide who to wote on...

Today is the final day.

and you're winning...and I'm sure at least one of my votes was my bro, who prolly didn't even read the comic, aw well at least I put in some effort

Early congrats to ya KK (I'm hoping this will jinx you) WHO SAID THAT!?

Well, voting's over, and here are the results (and the awards, which can be placed in sigs if desired). Not like you can't see them in the poll, but whatever.

Tied for 3rd are Mukora and myself! Yay us! We get this:


In 2nd, Havok Dryke! You get this:


And in 1st (which to me is oddly flattering, since it's a variation on my 2007 New Year's Comic) is Keaton-King! Congratulations! Here's your's:


Hopefully this becomes an annual tradition, with more participants and such, but this was pretty good for a first time in a quasi-dwindling spriting community.

Congrats Keaton!

I liked all the Christmas comics we turned out, and I think it would make a good tradition for other times of the year like Easter or Halloween


As for my badge, thank you. I shall wear it proudly in my signature

Wow! I actually won! Yeah, I'll also proudly wear my badge in my sig. Thanks to all who voted on me
