    Hello everyone,

    For years I've been impressed by the photocomic work of this place, and wanted to contribute. Finally, I got myself a camera, and now, I may finally do so. Be forewarned though, this story may not be especially TF-centric. It's actually based on the characters and stories of something else entirely, but a) this board is what inspired me to buy a camera and put work into this comic, and b) I DO use TF figures for some of the characters.

    I'll also say, this is a lighthearted comic. I hope y'all enjoy and will be able to offer feedback. Oh, and of course, gonna put the comic on my blog as well.

    I lol'd, it was a nice start. I gotta say this: I think your fire demon CEO is much more realistic in today's financial realm than fictional! haha.

    Thanks. I'm glad to see one of the regulars I follow thinks it's a good start. Hmm, I guess... well, might as well link to Dangerman's bio. If any of y'all might be interested. Here.

    And while I'm at it, here's the one for Spot.

    Bear in mind, Spot ain't strictly mine and I took some liberties with the char, also, Spot was from waaaay back. Not sure when, '98? '99? '00?

    Dangerman's from 2007 apparently.

    Awesome!! Looks like another Kamen Rider fan is here!

    I like Dangerman, he's funny. :D 

    EDIT: I just read Dangerman's bio, and it's slightly disturbing and funny. But I find it great!

    Being body slammed by a giant mecha Scorpion entitles you to a cliffhanger. :lol

    Yeah, we need more Kamen Rider to balance out the Star Wars as far as the crossovers in Funnies go.

    Dangerman bio is a later gen type. Compare it to Spot, who was from before the year 2000, after so many years, characters need to have more of a "hook" to do well.

    That'd do it, yeah.

    Thanks. Yeah, I'm trying to use obscure (but awesome) toys, if only to show appreciation for the toy. Though doubt Dangerman/Motion Revive Series Kamen Rider Secret Figure Momotaros is gonna be on the level of say, Mao Chao. For once thing, his name isn't as short and catchy.

    Well everyone, thanks for reading and commenting. I dig the support that the TF Funnies give to its peeps, hope y'all keep it coming.

    I certainly hope it'll be worth liking. I've actually got a few eps done already, so initially at least, the comic'll be regular.

    Well, gee whiz, what was the god of Conflict doing on the road, anyhow? Moving a plot device, perhaps?
