Default The Companion: Comic


The Companion Comic


Story:

Falcon was a normal man around 25 years old.
He had a day off from his work.
When he met a strange glowing circle who spoke to him, he was stubborn and touched it and landed on a strange land called Ascalon.
When he met Alesia and her team, he began to travel to the Great Nothernwall and there he met his first good Friend called Joel.
Now they need to find out why Falcon is here, 100 years in the past.


Information:

The Companion (Falcon) comic. Is based on the real story of Guild Wars.
Ofcourse is not really based..because you don't play Falcon or Joel in Guild Wars.

The Companion is based on the following genreā€™s: Action/Humor/Drama/Thriller/Romantic/Adventure

Also.. the comic goes deeper in the characters like the relationship between Cynn and Mhenlo. Farrah Cappo and Little Thom.
And how they evolved from a Soldiers to Legendary Heroes.

When i began to make this comic.. i wasn't paying any attention to the grammar.. so there are some grammar problems.
We will check on it in Chapter 2.

Each country in Tyria (Ascalon,Northern Shiverpeaks, Kryta etc.) has about 100 strips. So 4 chapters for each country.

It takes about 2 weeks to create a new chapter. So expect Chapter 2 in a week or two.

Very professionally done, yes there are quite a few grammar/spelling problems but other than that very well done!

on the page where he first reached ascalon, did you mean him to say: "What.. the.. ****... am i?!" rather than "Where"? Didnt know whether it was an oversight or a comedic device.

It's really very well done. The layout is nice, it looks very proffessional...
but I think you really need to work on your grammar. It kind of kills it for me.
Otherwise I would love to see more.
