mecid: You took the most literal interpretation of the Dude theme and that\'s not a bad thing at all, all the intentional corniness and stuff is so much fun. And I HAVE to say that I love what you\'re doing with Ben, it\'s so much fun to see your interpretation of her. You have almost made her into your own character, and I think that\'s so flattering and awesome.
But to business. It seems like content and story was sacrificed in favor of gags. Sometimes they seem to interrupt the flow of the overall story and that made it difficult to realise what was going on sometimes.
And this is a nitpick, but it looks like the panel borders are cutting into speech bubbles in some places.

fowlie: I like your style, it\'s so refreshingly unique. I don\'t know what else to say except that I really enjoyed the comic; all the characters are really alive.

I really want both dudes to continue, ugh! So excited for the conclusion of this excellent tournament.

Mecid-I really loved the story you had going on, it made me laugh quite a bit. I really love your inks and style dude. I did however have a hard time telling that was Nova at first in your style, maybe exaggerating his features a little more could have helped. I think some things were also a little confusing like Nova being turned into \"lame\". It took a few reads of that sequence to get that he\'d set the laser, that closeup was meant to be the laser being changed, and Nova getting shot with it. I only wish you could have finished, which considering the time limit, I was amazed you were able to get that much in and what you had was pretty good.

Fowlie-your style is improving all the time and I\'m really digging where it\'s going. I do however think you could vary your linewidths a lot more. I had a very hard time telling the difference between characters and surfaces and such with most of the lines being similiar. I really enjoyed the bottom of the second page, it made me think of Calvin and Hobbes. Other than varying your linewidths, I think most everything came out pretty solid.

Oh Fowlie, yours was most definitely fun on a bun. The whole set up is great and I\'m always partial to straight up fighting (as well as characters being slapped by jewish lackeys). You art really pulled together and it was certainly easy on the eyes. I have to agree with Phil with shaking it up the angles but that\'s something you can work in gradually. Keep it up and you\'ll definitely take out whoever you battle next.

Thanks for the crits so far everyone. I should have worked larger and worked on the quality of art. In retrospect, it would have been wiser to just focused on putting quality in a smaller amount of pages rather then have 9 pages of cheap gags and yakky dialogue. I was even thinking as I was drawing \'People are gunna call me on this\' and kept going anyway. I think I may need to step away from void for a while and just work on the stuff mentioned for a while.

Anyway, thanks and good luck Fowlie.

I think the action is heating up, but it kinda looks like half the contestants are starting to run out of fuel.

Mecid: As always I love your comics and your humor, my only complaint here is mainly with the quality, despite not finishing this was pretty good, but there doesn\'t seem to be a whole lot here to look at, you\'ve got way too much negative space in this comic and it\'s hurting ya badly. I would like to suggest something to fill in those pieces of negative space if you can, maybe cross hatching? But anywho, you brought the heat to this fight and I look forward to what you have next time


Fowlie: Awesome job and an entertaining comic, however, I\'d like to see you move the battle outside of the bathroom checkerboard backgrounds now honestly. You\'re not putting in a whole lot of detail into these backgrounds, and you seem to be drawing just the one side of the bathroom half the time. MIX IT UP HUN! Show a birds eye view or worms eye view of the action! The other thing you should watch out for is your linewidth, too often did Nova and Nowhere look like they had become one person. Try to thicken the lines if something overlaps your character, or don\'t attach the linework of one character to another (this can also be done for backgrounds and foregrounds).




Anywho, my vote goes to Fowlie on this one, I really enjoyed both stories and I would of gave you both equal marks, but I\'m going towards the finished comic this time. Fowlie, I wish you luck in the next round!

Mecid: great story you really ran with the tourney theme.  Really too bad about the unfinished stuff, would have made it excruciating to chose between these gems.  Be happy that either way, Nowhere Boy with continue in both versions.  You and fowlie have both done an A job of keeping your previous opponents in the story, makes for very good reading.
PS just got the lame gun reference

fowlie: I hope you hear this more than once, but the Dr. Fabulous line on the last page about coat racks tipped the scales so fast it fell over.  I was laughing quite a bit.  This was fantastic writing, and your combinbation of line shadows and felt pen shading makes your art POP.  Congrats!

Mecid - I liked your plot a lot, it was very funny and it was very easy to follow, as well.
Concerning the art, I imagine you might be drawing a bit small, and your art could benefit of a bigger paper sizer, and bigger drawings, most noting on the panels you put a lot of things inse, which are like, most of them, and all of them lacking a bit of detail, contrary to your bigger ones (ok, this should be obvious, but what I mean is that since you use those so much, it would be a nice idea to bring them to a new level, maybe). Nice job overall!

Fowlie - As in Mecid\'s yours was really funny, and in yours it had this chaotic action which really makes me gigle, hehe. I loved the height comparison panels! On the art now! I think you could scale down your images for showing in the net. I dunno if your monitor is widescreen but as mine isn\'t I have to scroll left to see it. Other benefits it could do that it would be better to understand bigger complex drawings like Nova\'s smashing Fabulous partner head onto Nowhere\'s. Maybe thicker lineweights in the right places too.

Both entertainment and creativity was nice here, but I give the best quality vote to fowlie

Fowlie- you are bringing the comedy and flow to your comics with each round. This is great. You already know my critique and nitpicks since we talked before this came up, so I\'ll save you the repeat. Make it to the top baby!

Mecid- I love love love the continuing cheap budget theme you have going- especially with Nova\'s tentacles. All the little things you incorporate are very cool.

You guys are both my favs! You\'re going ot make this one tough!

Sorry to hear about the flu, Mecid, but despite that you made a very solid entry. I hope you rest up and get better.

Fowlie, terrific job, these last two comics have been my all time favorites of yours. Keep up the quality.

Damn, EVERYONE is getting the flu this year!

Uploaded as well. Slightly unfinished because of the flu eating into my drawing time. I don\'t recommend it.

All uploaded! I\'M SO EXCITED! =D

FINALLY!

My comic is going to be over run with tall, gangly men, with giant noses and silly hair!

OMGWTF

FOR HONOR AND 20 DOLLARS, COME ON.
