As everyone (probably) knows, I've been doing a sprite-based webcomic for a year now, off and on. Recently, I hit a roadblock where I haven't done anything on it. I could, but I need to do a load of sprites for it, and just haven't found time to do it.But I've thought about just putting that comic on the backburner for right now. And here's why:One of my friends and I were talking last night, and talking about how funny a poker-based webcomic would be. We were throwing out a ton of ideas, and it truly sounds like a winner to me. Basically, we would be doing a complete satire of the poker world, and basically making fun of the big names in a way. All in the name of good laughs.But anyway, I figure this might be a good idea. But I just wanted to know if there was any kind of interest for this sort of thing before I go in and start doing this. So thus the creation of this poll.So what do you guys think? Worth the investment of my time or not?

i think if you did it once a week or so like i know Halo Babis used to do making fun of Halo you could get a good followingIMO I think you should try it, see what happens after a week or two but i could defintley see potential

can you knock out an example? that may light the fire in both directions.
one of the first ones that was thought up was a comic where daniel and scotty nguyen are the wonder twins, not sure where it would go from therebasically, what the comic idea started out as was that we were going to use pictures to put the comic together, while i photoshopped new backgrounds in. but the more i thought about it, the more impossible it seemed, simply because i would find enough pictures to do it, and the outfits would never match, which would make for bad continuity.my thought right now is to use south park-ish bodies, and use the heads of the characters (kind of like saddam or mel gibson was in south park), and basically just go from there.that could change of course, but it makes it easier for me to manipulate the characters, and of course, would probably make it funnier.i'll post up more ideas as i come up with them.

Id be surprised if this turned out to be funny. Dont know, it seems like it'll be hard to pull off since theres not much to make fun of, other than a couple porns here and there. gl though.

Subject matter is unimportant in terms of making it funny. I'll bet most people thought Dilbert would be lame because "office jobs are boring, not funny".Good writing transcends its 'topic'.
