Make your own comic strip! This will do until I gain some artistic skill.. Featuring some great artwork too, Penny Arcade, ExplodingDog etc.

Maybe I can make some funny Live in Hell comics (circa 1985). This site is way cool.

It took me a while to realize only the artwork was supplied by those folks -- thank god, because most of the content I witnessed rivals marmaduke meets butthead in the creativity department.

Whoops, I meant Life in Hell.

Thank you mossy - this link, to me, is what MeFi is about!

unless, of course, someone else posted the same link within the past two years, or others don't think it's all that cool, or that it's the type of site that someone has seen 1k times before, in which case you can rot in hell. There, ass covered. <g>

In a similar vein is Red Meat Construction Set, a comic generator based on the always-tasteful Red Meat.

Boaz: Dear sweet god! that Red Meat generator is fantastic. I have been laughing out loud for ten minutes. That should be a front page post (but wait until tomorrow sometime during the day and ask people to use their MeFi names, so we'll know who's family)

Great stuff!

If it was posted before, it was posted as a link from the Lowpass Industries site.

I messed with this about 8 months ago, fun to find it again.

You don't need art skill to make a comic, look at dilbert. haha

You're welcome; it was a pretty old thread anyway. I'm surprised nobody's given either of these things a whirl. Here's my feeble attempt.

I prefer the Red Meat tool. Here's mine. Caution: possibly offensive.

heehee...
Is it just me or are the red meat construction set strips much, much, much better on average than the stripcreator ones?
