Larp Trek

Have you ever thought that the adventures of DS9 might have been just the characters of Star Trek: The Next Generation role playing because the holodeck was offline.  What do you mean, you haven't?  Well you don't have to, Josh Millard over at Larp Trek has done all the work for you.  Stop in and check it out. Enjoy the first strip below. 


 

Sluggy Freelance- NCCW

The year was 1998.  I was in the Army on a Gateway computer chatting with someone on ICQ.  This person was from outside of Canberra Australia and they said (typed) the words that would come to have great impact on me.  The asked, "have you been to sluggy.com?"  At that point I had not.  I went and started at the first comic and waded through six months worth of comics that night.  I have been hooked ever since.  Pete Abrams is the creator and he has taken these offbeat characters a long way.  His art has improved and the stories have gotten deeper and more intertwined as the years have gone by.  It started out as pretty much a joke a day type comic, but at some point it looks as though Pete gave up hope or desire of newspaper sindication and just started telling his stories.  13-14 years of comics may sound overwelming but Pete has put together a new viewer's guide to help you out.  below is the first comic and the comic for the date of this posting.  I encourage you to check out site and start reading through some back log, you should know pretty quick if you are a sluggite or not. 

Dr. McNinja Boy Scout Patches

Patches, we don't need no stinking Patches!

Wait, on second thought, those are really cool.  I wouldn't mind having one or three.  I wish my Boy Scout troop would have done something like this.  Of course Dr. McNinja was still in Med School way back then. 

Chris Hastings, writer and penciler for Dr. McNinja, has created these awesome patches for the Potomac Council's trip to the 2010 National Jamboree.  Chris is an Eagle Scout himself. 

I think for his next project he should work with the scouts on a Web Comics merit badge.
