allow me to reintroduce myself
Hey everybody. Bear with me, my long-suffering readers, as I recount the basics of the Nobody Scores! experience here in this space — I’m conducting a little bit of an ad blitz and I figured an orientation would be in order.
This here cartoon entertainment, Nobody Scores!, is a comic where anything can happen — especially to the main characters, moneymaking Sara, fun-seeking Jane, tortured multi-class artist/schlub Beans, and tortured downstairs neighbor and academic Raoul — anything can happen, anything at all, so long as it’s dire. See here for a more extended explanation, and here for insight as to the recurring bit characters. The little portraits on the topbar also bring up information.
Nobody Scores! updates twice a week, always behind schedule. To facilitate reading, there’s an RSS feed, a Livejournal feed, a Twitter account, a Facebook group, and delicious aspirin.
Some of my favorite Nobody Scores! misadventures so far:
• Meet The New Boss is the first strip to really summarize the character dynamics.
• Chimps vs. Teens is a necessary bit of documentary, I think.
• It’s Even Worse Than It Looks is about as disgusting as I get and that is pretty disgusting. Readers suffer too! Oh you’re gonna love this cartoon of mine I just know it.
• Wally Rogers The Rescue Dog is coming to save the day.
• No mortal man can escape The Paste That Binds.
• Sometimes I have robots! See the Frozen Fresh Bonus Pack.
• Ironic Distance investigates the benefits and pitfalls of dealing with texts at a certain remove in a way I believe to be stimulating.
• Yr. god will not save you: What Happens Now.
• Concrete Epiphany, it is agreed, constitutes a significant advance for the arts.
• Jane Amuck provides historical context.
• Cultural investigations are at the heart of Nobody Scores! Indeed, Nobody Scores with Wackness.
• First impressions are crucial. Nobody Scores with The Big Entrance.
• Finally: tread lightly, because Nobody Scores vs. Mascot Bob.
Thanks for reading! Your brain-juice will power my secret underground brain-juice motor. I should probably hook it up to something now.
NOT JUST NEWS TO YOU, NEWS TO EVERYONE
I was interviewed again, slowly, over the course of months! Essentially I am a tree-person. You can read the results at This Week in Webcomics, right here.
THE PART WHERE I SPREAD LINKS AND IT’S ALL STICKY
Nobody Scores with bacon, it’s true, but everyone scores with these. MmmmmMMMMMMMmmm.
I spent the week wishing I could beatbox instead of draw. “But, Brandon,” you say, since we’re totally on a first-name basis and shit, “I enjoy your drawings,” because you do, “and I don’t enjoy beat-boxing!” Well more fool you because you would be missing out on shit that’ll change you. Now if only they could get hooked up with one of these.
Finally. A site of illusions. The web-design of this page is, sadly, also an illusion; I recommend clicking on the sidebar where it says 2009 finalists, 2008 finalists, etc.
Also, new peoples such as may exist & care: down here is where you comment. Or disambiguate testify, as is my current whim. Go!
