If you were starting an independant comic company...

[The Question]

No it doesn't.

Yes it does, actually. The movie didn't do too well at the box office, but comics are far less expensive to produce than a film, so a comic would most likely make back it's cost. Also, fans buying multiple copies of the DVDs shows that they would be willing to do alot to keep any kind of continuation alive. As long as you're not expecting big two level sales (which would be unrealistic anyway), a Firefly comic should make a decent profit.

 

[CConn]

No, it wouldn't.

 

[The Question]

No, it wouldn't.

Yes, it would. Wether or not you like Firefly has no bearing on the fact that it would make a profit.

 

[CConn]

Oh, I love Firefly. But it wouldn't.

 

[The Question]

Oh, I love Firefly. But it wouldn't.

But...oh, sorry. I thought you were someone else. My mistake. Anyway, to the point: Why don't you think it would make a profit?

 

[CConn]

Because it wouldn't.

 

[The Question]

Because it wouldn't.

That doesn't answer the question at all.

 

[CConn]

No it doesn't, but my point stands.

 

[The Question]

No it doesn't, but my point stands.

You're point would stand alot better if you actually bothered to explain why you have it. It is a tad frustraiting not getting a straight answer when I have explained why I do think it would make a profit, you know.

 

[CConn]

I don't feel the need to prove myself.

 

[The Question]

I don't feel the need to prove myself.

Well, it would just be polite.

 

[CConn]

I disagree.

 

[The Question]

I disagree.

You know that this is neither funny nor clever.

 

[CConn]

Don't be rude.

 

[The Question]

Don't be rude.

Really, please, stop. This isn't funny. It's just rather annoying.

 

[CConn]

I find it highly enlightening.

 

[MaskedManJRK]

Actually, so do I. *eats popcorn*

Anyway, I agree with Q's setiment on The Shadow, plus I think Firefly could work.

Do you guys think a Law & Order comic would work?

 

[CConn]

If done well, sure. I mean, look at the creative success Rucka and Brubaker had on Gotham Central. A cop-centered comic like that could be pretty cool.

 

[Abaddon]

Brimstone.
Veronica Mars
Dancing with the Stars

 

[CConn]

Veronica Mars

**** me, I'd love that.

 

[Abaddon]

Cross your fingers.

If it was me, I'd make sure that the only thing that would be missing would be the sound that goes with the title cards.

It'd have to be SVU, though, because...well...SVU's the best out of all of them.

Awesome.

It's great it's by DC too, cause that means I can get my Veronica while still remaining a raging DC fanboy.

 

[Elijya]

No, it wouldn't.

An argument isn't just contradiction. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition

 

[CConn]

That's the thing; I was never in it for an argument. The Question was. And, quite simply, I wasn't going to be baited. My original comment was - at worst - semi-serious, and hardly worth a deep discussion over. I was hoping, but repeatedly declining his invitations to a debate, he'd realize I really didn't feel strongly about it, and I guess he did, it just took him 40 or so posts.
