Due to convenience reasons, SHS will no longer be operating on this site! We are now located on facebook and are using discord for the chat. For information, our discord chat is here: https://discord.gg/84ue8Vv. It has been a pleasure meeting and serving everyone on this website, but if we wish to move on, we must start fresh in a new location. I hope everyone understands and we hope to see new and old faces. With all that is said and done, SHS is officially up and running again and we had our first tournament on 2/24/2017!! As discussed, we can still hold the 10 year anniversary party. - Thanks for you understanding! With love, Pijy

Webcomic #2 - Comments and Opinions

Members featured in this comic:
Forklift Driver (Will decide who he is when i use the character again)
True Lycanthrope
Newtkiller
JJEmpire
ArtOfWarfare

Another comic up, I had originally intended to have this one up yesterday, but i forgot to save the sheet i was inking with Art and the forklift on it, and ended up losing about 2 hours worth of work, and then spent another 4 hours trying to get them back up to the original standard... and failing, so all in all that put me behind by about a day.

I wasnt originally going to have art in it, i was going to leave the character open until he actually gets a speaking role, however when i finished inking him, he looked alot like an estate agent, or a typical windows user... so i thought it ironic to name the character after the biggest apple fan i know, I hope you dont mind art, only this character has a personality to match his apperance, it does not reflect my opinion of you though.

A side note on the location names, whenever a location is changed it will be announced by the yellow box in the corner, and the floor corrisponds to the level underground the scene is, so for example B1 is literally just under the surface wheras B6 is... well 6 floors down. This will make more sense when i draw the next comic which i will design solely to explain the layout of the silo and the different functions of the area.

Also I've written some character bio's to help me when it comes to advancing a characters personality and deciding how they would react to a given situation, I was thinking of drawing up some art to match and then putting them up here, I'd only put the effort in though if you guys wanted to see it, your thoughts?

... I'm a PC nerd!? :(

... whatever.

I think you should have animated the 3rd panel too and synced it up with the 4th panel.

Edit: Uggg, another monopoly I hate is contained in the comic... McDonalds!?

WORST. FOOD. EVER. (Well, the worst food ever sold at a restaurant that wasn't defected.)

And I love the Fire logo... so evil looking :D

... we need more emoticons... namely, a devil, an angle, and a heart. If I make them, will you add them Lycan?

Sweet, I'm a militaryish guy.

And when I saw the title, I actually thought something bad was going to happen. The fact that it just turns off the light on floor B10 was when I chuckled.

Also, it would be ironic if you named the forklift driver Mattimeo.

I was originally gonna have the charizard kill off the forklift diver, and all you'd see if flames erupting from the window Lycan was standing by, but i just couldnt draw the flames properly, so I have up, the comic has a few chuckles in it anyway so it doesnt matter, i can do that one another time.

Also what are peoples opinions on the character bios, should i put them up?

All the more reason to name the forklift driver Mattimeo.

I don't see why not. Every comic out there has a bio section about the characters.

Dude I've already said like 100 times, the way i portray the characters does not reflect on what i think of members personally, in fact i actually give the character a design before i even give it a name, so i've had them planned out long before i identify them. Most characters dont even fit with what i think, or know, members look like. Hell even my ones looks like me from about 2 years ago. No Avatar

That's actually disappointing. I would kinda like to see the characters in the comic based upon their attitudes on the forums (Of course all horribly exaggerated).

I'm going to agree with Matt on this.

Having fantastically exaggerated traits would be a lot funnier than having the opposite traits.

I have actually been brainstorming for story ideas:


How about we are all in a round of the Conduit (yes I know it's not out bet lets use all info we know)


So teams can be at your choice, doesn't really matter.

So you have one of us just running out in the open and the BOOM HEADSHOT Ranger kills him/her.


Then they try again, BOOM HEADSHOT


and again


...and again

...and again


the you just see his pile of the same players bodies, so then that person gets pissed off, takes another route into wherever Ranger was hiding and shotguns her in the back (in an incredibly kid friendly way)


so then you see that person standing over her in triumph...and arrogant swearing


then somebody...maybe JJ or Art, sneaks up behind the person and rifle butts him/her in the head killing him.her and then the game ends.



You wouldn't need to draw Conduit models, just use how you were making us look, just with conduit stage screenshots as the background, and draw some of the weapons to the best of you ability.


I'd call it:

Vengeance: Sweet Yet Short Lived

I can see that as a web-comic joke...Heck, it's VGCats material!

Good idea. Lycan, comments?
