I have been kicking around an idea for a comic for a while now called 'User Group'.  It is a synthesis of geekery and ridiculousness that fits snugly into the fabric of SsWi.

I am a huge fan of sequential art and have produced a couple of home grown books in the past, so this isn't new territory for me per se.  The main difference is that I have become... disenfranchised with art and comics over the years and find it hard to get motivated.

The thing is, the more I think about the introductory story arch that is brewing the more excited I am getting.  Excited enough to finally start sketching.  Now all I need to do is convince two of my favorite artists to lend me one of their characters for the arch and we will be set.

I hope to be posting about this more in the future as things progress, so stay tuned.  As a bit of a teaser here is a sketch I did just a couple of minutes ago with my WACOM:"(I am using a PenPartner, which is not really for this type of thing. I am hoping to drop some cash on a nicer tablet soon.)": tablet.  The introductory arch story makes use of Brent Sienna from Player vs Player and Hawk from Applegeeks, so here is what my Brent would look like... maybe:

Like I said a quick sketch.  Hopefully fortune will smile on me and Scott and Hawk will be generous enough to lend their characters to my opening story arch.
