StevePhelps 0 #26 January 19, 2005 QuoteNo pilots? We have one at DZ comic. He's young, but not as young as he looks. He looks 12. He is 25 or so. His name is "Doogie" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peckerhead 0 #27 January 19, 2005 Ah yes, we had one of those....His name was Shorty. He had been hanging out at the DZ since he was a little kid. He taught me how to pack when he was 14 (I was only 18) He started flying jumpers when he was about 20. It made me kinda nervous at first, for some reason I always thought the pilot should be older than me. I will never forget the first time I walked out to the 182 and he was sitting in the pilot seat. I waved my arms at the DZO and screamed "Hey! Can we please get an ADULT to fly the plane?!!!!" When Shorty started flying jumpers he still looked like he was about 14. Many of our older students would ask him how old he was on the way up to altitude or say things like "Are you really old enough to fly this thing?"

Tekla 0 #32 January 20, 2005 It looks potentially wicked. It's CTRL+D'd and I can't wait to see the strips you come up with. I'm guessing your going to introduce us to two other main characters during the course of the series your preliminary cast list is missing : A diver-driver and a keg of beer.

StevePhelps 0 #36 January 21, 2005 The plan is to launch Version 1.0 on FEBRUARY 7th with MWF cartoons... I may go to Mon - Fri cartoons. Makes no sense to have Sat or Sun as everyone will be at the DZ. There will be updates until that time. Please save as favorite and check often. Thanks for your support!

StevePhelps 0 #37 January 21, 2005 I got the prototype up now. You can check it out. Does anyone know a little php code? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevePhelps 0 #38 January 25, 2005 So many of my ideas have less to do with skydiving per se, but more on the life at the DZ (which to me is a lot funnier) I don't want to do canned skydiving jokes. If you can relate to the DZ atmosphere humor at the DZ would you guys still read it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samurai136 0 #39 January 26, 2005 The video guy should regularly appear with a 4-way team in the background who are never introduced to the readers for a good period of time. I'll check into it! Ken"Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StevePhelps 0 #47 February 7, 2005 My goal is to have both PARCHUTIST & SKYDIVER run their own unique DZ comic that will in turn point people back to the website. I will wait for a month or so before I contact them to see what the readership and page hits. I think most skydivers will like it -- as an inside look to DZ humor.

jtval 0 #48 February 7, 2005 when you say (posted) updated MWF is that a new cartoon every other week day?or update to the site?My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevePhelps 0 #49 February 7, 2005 MWF means a new cartoon every MW&F. (3 new cartoons every week, with an occasional special colored Sunday) I wish to have a new cartoon every M,T, W,TH,& F soon if the comic takes off with page hits. I'm working of safety week cartoon right now for mid March. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
