Divine Contention This is (hopefully going to be) a comic strip, based on the Christian Bible Recounts the contents of the Bible with humourously realistic consequences. This is open to everybody to reply to, to add new strips so if you have an idea, post it up. Any arty person who wants to draw up the strips, go right ahead. Let's make this a real community thing, for the love of comedy Btw, I've done a little search, but if anyone knows of any existing comic strip with a similar intention, let me know. I've started at Noah's Ark, If you have one from before then, we can insert it before and re-number Comments / alterations welcome -------------------------- Strip #1 Panel 1 God: "......two of every animal......" Noah: "Yes, Lord" Panel 2 Noah at home, hunched over a page of calculations Wife: "How's it coming along?" Noah: "Well, I think we're going to need a boat about 18 by 6......" Wife: "Feet?" Panel 3 Noah (Head in hands): "Miles" -------------------------- Strip #2 Panel 1 Close up of Noah sanding a bit of wood Noah: "Well, that's the finishing touches" Panel 2 Camera panned back, showing an enormous boat, Noah & wife mear specks in contrast In the background are sawn-off tree trunks (like you'd see on the cover of a national geographic de-forestation article) Noah: "I reckon it's complete" Panel 3 God appears in frame God dwarfs the Ark Even more sawn off stumps visible in distanse Narrator: "And God gazed upon the Ark, and it was good" Narrator: "He averted his eyes from the forest of Edan" God (thought bubble): "Maybe not my finest moment"

Lmfao. Good stuff, Ynot. If I wasn't working on enough, already, I'd contribute. Maybe later, though.

remember to include a little thing at the bottom of the sanding wood picture, "100 years later" I think that the actual bible said something like it was just him and his kids working for years and years building this thing. heheh, "Noah & Sons: ark building-We build boats in the desert to save mankind! reservations are open for a limited time only."

Ok, here's Strip #1 (keep in mind that I sketched this in about 5 mins with an ink pen so it kinda sucks)

hey burns, that's great, i'd love to give something like this a shot, but ive no way to get the images on to my computer...unless i got curtis to take pictures of my sketches and then uploaded the pictures, is that what you've done? Oh, and also, i love the drawings just as they are...the idea of comic strips isn't that the characters are necessarily perfectly drawn, right? Curtis reads a comic called 'American Splendor' by Harvey Pekar, and every issue has guest artists, so you always get different types of drawing.
