The Clockwork Mansion

Should Abel's Story be Spun-off in to it's own comic?

Maybe... but it kinda already is. I'm not sure if much more is needed.

hmm, yes, that would be interesting... I think Abel deserves his own comic... and if he did get his own comic, we wouldn't have to wait a week for each update o_o @_@ xD

I really don't think he having his own comic would mean a boost on updates...

besides I think it IS his own comic, except he doesn't have one page dedicated only for him.

Hmm if he gotten his own page...Just ask him be the decrating  personal

The current Abel's Story is limited, period. It will eventually link up with the SAIA arc, history-wise.

If it is to "spin-off", it would generally mean that either Amber would have to write, draw, and colour a whole new series (would pick up after the wedding arc, probably); overloading whatever workload she already has--

--or someone else can write the comic, that would be a lot more likely to happen. It would also mean that person would have to adjust whatever story s/he has in mind to the timeline wherein Abel appears in DMFA. Plus it'd probably take some artistic liberties (characters in a comic reflects facets of a writer's personality) that would alienate most Abel fans, and eventually make it a thankless, fruitless job.

It would also be a narcissistic point of view. Only him, every comic, every update? Abel is nice, but too much of anything goes bad. Comics like this would generally have to have a few more characters-- meaning more work, more writing of backstories, or having to take permissions for existing ones.

Finally; It'd be a new comic, if anything, rather than a spin-off.

I like Abel where he is right now no spin-off for him.

So far so good, as long as Abel becomes a regular for the main comic strip (he probably will be) I'm  :]. I just hope we get close to 200 pages for Abel's Arc.

Didn't she say fizzle out. I want a cookie :mowcookie

Here's your cookie *slams a giant one on his head*

Oww 'A' :crying

That hurt. Do you want a cookie too?

*Hands Zedd a crumb of the giant cookie*

Umm no thanks its alright...ANyhow as I was going to say...Where could Amber might take her time to make this spinoff? I am not sure she could do it...Might need some help though

Abel spin-off? Nah.

Regina spin-off? :D

Regina spin-off? :D

There wasn't quite enough money for that :P

And free time, she kind of needs that the most.

I don't think Abel should have a spin-off. He's a basically a new character and has not establised firmly at Lost Lake or with the DMFA Regulars just yet. I will be a very long time till he does establish his character but right now no spin-off for Abel.

How should we donate some of that to her? :square

My opinion stands with Ink. Quality over quantity is always my opinion.

Here, Here I second that

I didnt want to rain on any hopes or parades, but I've been of the mind that once Abel's Story is complete, I would either take the Saturday slot and give it to the story involving Mikelo and the Mab's Land characters...or possibly another story I have had my eyes on.

It's hard to say really since it'll be a while till Abel's Story is done and who knows what the future holds.

Either way I wouldn't count out other characters getting more serious side-stories in the future.  Maybe not as massively huge...but its always a possibility.

Abel's Story is already kinda spun off anyway, isn't it? >.>

So we might get Regina sometime later? Woot, something to look forward to.

... maybe. *crosses fingers*

The real question is "Should Abels Story end?"  As originally conceived, it was intended as a short story introducing a new character.  The story has grown longer in the telling.  If Amber wanted to, she could prolong it indefinitely.  I understood the poll to be asking if she should do that.

I voted no, as I would prefer Ambers talents to be concentrated in a single storyline, not spread out over several.

But... Regina? :(

Stig: Amber's already said she intended to fill in most of the "important" past points up to the present, and the story already has a definite end. It's just that where along the number of strips it ends is going to be the tough part.

There are so many stories that could be told. We will never see them all...

It seems like were only getting eleven more strips. :cry
I wanted a little bit more.

Um...so two entire story archs with 70% of the strips containing Abel and the current story arch and his own story arch seem to make him an unestablished character. He might be new but he is established, he's Dan's mentor for probably 2 DMFA years.

Would one of those be the one featuring the characters on the top of http://www.mabsland.com/Art5.html  :eager

I'd certainly agree with that.
:ddrabel
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

You would be correct modelincard.  Speaking of which...I really should finish making up the prototype images of the rest of the cast...

...

Seriously, Amber. Ebola? Even I am having doubts at that one. I'm just happy you can't read my mind.

I kind of like it when Amber share things with us. The arwork is so cool and breath taking I love every single thing she drawn.

Why not? Maybe she can get an auditon in the Ozzy & Drix Show  :)

Mmm..  :3 *wondering what would happen if Ozzy meet Mab City's Mayor *

You never know with Amber talents she a exceptional artist. She could do anything if she wants and she will be very famous one day. But right now she is famous here at DMFA and we are the fanboys and gals  are rabid for her.

That would be one of the most amusing crossovers ever. I'm pretty sure her City Mayor would be a complete space-case... or a diabolical mastermind.

Oh come on are we Fanboys here and the gals to. I think i'm one of them but if you feel not proud then walk over that way. I'm very proud to be a Fanboy *shows pride*
