Comic Pitches Summed Up
Posted on | August 17, 2010 | 3 Comments
A selection of… five and a half! I will pick only ONE of these to pursue and develop, and it’ll turn into a series that will last at least one whole storyline. That’s a lot of work, so of course I give over the decision to the Internet.

Geeks & Dragons
Original Pitch
- A strip-form comic about five 16-45 year old geeks – a tech geek, sci-fi gamer geek, music geek, fantasy geek and a sex geek – who find a miniature dragon and have to figure out what to do with it, where it came from, and how to get Ruth to stop embarrassing them all by believing in fairies after this.
Suffragettes Vs. Aliens
Original Pitch
- An NSFW comic with only minor violence and no nudity whatsoever, SvsA would follow the adventures of four turn-of-the-century feminists as they try to stop Space Rangers and Space Monsters from dragging Earth into their silly little pissing contest. It would have dick jokes. Lots and lots of dick jokes.
NSFW extras on Dreamwidth: one – two – three
Madame Zizi
Original Pitch
Madame Zizi may have to be called something else in its final form, but it’s a light adventure about an ornery vampiress who doesn’t look the part, her man-servant, and her mad scientist. They were forced out of her ancestral castle and are now on the road disguised as a fortune-teller act, and they are travelling the land trying to find out what happened to the rest of Zizi’s clan.

Gods of Cabaret
Original Pitch
College student Blue Connor returns home to the Cabaret Palourde, only to find out one of her mothers is, for a functional value, the Greek Goddess Aphrodite. She had been living a low-key human life to hide from her crazy family – and to stay with the family she loves. Now, she’s been found.
Eve of the Gods
Original Pitch
Eve Albertson and her uncle Carl Blake run a detective agency in the 1930s. He is the face of the organization; she’s the brains, and kind of the brawn as well. They get mixed up in a case of a stolen museum artifact that unravels a supernatural secret world leading right back – to Eve. (Hint: It’s Ragnarök Tiem.)
And finally the “half”…
Amir the Wolf
Original Pitch
This is really nothing but a jumbled collection of ideas right now, not much to show, but if it gets picked on the power of “trans werewolf”, “future people” and “possibly some pirates but they’re not important”, I’ll damn well work on it until there’s a storyline in there, too.

Oh, God, I have to decide? Really? *flail*
I’m most enamoured of Madame Zizi, with a secondary vote for Gods of Cabaret, should you want to know.
*adds blog to Dreamwidth feed* Somehow I didn’t do that before now.
