    To be honest, I don't see anything of substance in your comics. It's just another stick figure cartoon that any ordinary Joe could have drawn. Design characters man, not only would it make the comic more interesting, but it would add to the funny-factor, as actually characters have personality and can be developed upon. You don't even need recurring characters, just.. people (or animals/aliens/whatever floats your boat) of some kind with personality..

    Just my 2¢, just passing on what I have learned from my dad who is a professional cartoonist.

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I too wanted to put some personalities and various characters into my comics, maybe even get a real name for the series. It certainly would have helped with the prank war going on back and forth between those two. The problem is they're just stick figures, how am I supposed to make them look different? I could add clothes, but I think that would be weird on a stick figure. And i'm not going to change my style and upgrade to actual people with skin and everything. Tried that once, it was a nightmare. I don't know, but I was thinking of trying something like that when the new year rolls around.

    I actually base my comics off XKCD's style. That's where I got the idea. But then again, even their characters have some personalities too. Thanks for the advice. I'll try it out sometime.

    even something in the style of cyanide and happiness with some more development would work out.

    The seasons one was the best, because its so damn true lol.

    Like Reaper said, you need to build up characters for the comics to have any real series, otherwise its just a bunch of random people doing random things, that can be good, but a bit too random at times.

    I suggest you give it a shot at designing some characters, giving them names etc.

    The problem with stick men comics, is the humor needs to be 100% perfect to pull it off.

    the seasons one made me laugh a bit, some of them i didnt get but overall its decent I think.

    Your gonna get mixed results if were critiquing the humor, everyones sense of humor is different ranging from shitty (hard to make laugh) to good, or hyper sensitive (you can say poop or pudding and they'll bust out laughing).

    As for the art... uh stickfigures, nothing more to critique really, oh I liked the movie projection one too.

    On the movie projection one when they stared at the guy, each had a wtf r u talking about expression that made me lol. I think you can pull it off if you raise the comedy to the next levels.

    Ok, it actually has been a while since I've updated. Since then I made 8 or 9 new ones. I took some people's ideas and created characters - Joey, Dan, and Katie. Now from Comic #44 and on I have been using them instead of random stick figures. I also gave the series a name: Absent-Minded. So anyway, here's the ones I created since my last update. I think they are better than before and I've gotten a lot of positive feedback on them. What do you think?









    #48 is missing since it sort of sucks in my opinion.


    #49: I was kind of emo that night.


    #50: My 50th comic. Felt like it deserved something special.

    I really liked 49 and 50. 51 was good too, but not as funny as the previous two.

    Those are pretty good, even for stick figures.
