the hell is a.t.x.s.?

Post by raocow »

a.t.x.s. is a little webcomic drawn by me and written by AoD. We use the Stan Lee/Jack Kirby approach to the comic - we draft up the story together, but the art is what is done first, with the writing adapted to the art in the panels.

This is the result.

oh man linking to my own comic

I also have a smaller comic, a.t.s.i.f. , but for now it's only hosted on dA, so, uhm, yeah.

Hey all. Longtime buddy and writer of ATXS reporting in here.

I hope you people give criticism and feedback, and show your love of ATXS, because I really do try my hardest to make it a good comic for you people! raocow? All he does is take his tablet and scribble whatever he feels like for less than an hour.

Yes, but he does it with his eyes closed and boxing gloves on, because it's part of his research to see if he could create a comic like this. And he even takes the time to upload these incompareable pieces of art on the internet!
So you better be grateful for that ;)

this is very long so I wont lie and tell you I have already read it all. But the drawning is really neat and kept me interessed. I'll continue reading it.

Aw man, craaazy battles! Can't wait for more so I can buy a bone and give it to a cake man.

Awesome designs, and funny dialogue.
“Never lose focus. Focus, focus, focus.You are a zebra and you are trying to win a marathon, okay? That’s how much focus you’re having right now. You are The Focus of Zebra and The Zebra of Focus. You’re like freakin’ both. You have a split personality, you can do it. Well, that’s not true. But I can pretend! I have the power of imagination! I am, after all, The Marathon Zebra.” - raocow

Glad you appreciate it! If you folks have any questions about interpreting it, just ask me here and I'll probably answer it in the most spoilerific way ever!

Also, I do my own comic. Since we'll be doing kind of a crossover arc with characters from my comic in the next upcoming arc once this finishes (that's kind of incumbent on raocow to resolve this arc in a meaningful way in a reasonable number of pages! :evil: ), and so it might be neat as a way of understanding a different perspective by going to Hexagon Death Squad.

I started laughing at the very first page. The sheer amount of randomness in it is really amusing. Not to mention the raocow-esque dialogue and actions of it all... like, on the second page, the rumbling makes a sad face. I kept chuckling at that for the next 5 minutes. I'm looking forward to reading through all of this very soon.

I like raocow's style and AoD's dialogues. Are you guys planning to do more of this podcast thingy? I found it really entertaining!

We do a podcast about webcomics and general nerd stuff in The Plate. We kind of ramble a lot, though, and our podcast is still meandering around, trying to find its true voice. Be patient with us. Also, it features a female buddy of ours who goes by the handle "Apocrypha Requiem".

Funny podcast :D Listening the newest episode and it's pretty funny. Maybe little bit too much offtopic-chatting sometimes, that's the only problem (...maybe)

About comic, I have read it sometimes, but not really active reader. Art style is nice, that I like :)

This.

Anyway, questions and things about ATXS go here if you're having trouble. (It's not exactly the easiest thing to decipher if you're a newbie, see!)
