🐏 Ponpon Mania: How WebGL and GSAP Bring a Comic Sheep’s Dream to Life

I want to „design“ a speech bubble that I’ll lay over an existing illustration. Any tips on font and tool usage so it looks as close to one drawn in a comic as possible?

"consuming #AI art is like eating styrofoam", says @…: https://theoatmeal.com/comics/ai_art
The Oatmeal comic about "AI" "art" is great, but I have to critize the "I like AI, I use AI" part; there's a selection bias at work—he sees the generated "art" as very obviously for what it is, (dehumanizing low-effort slop) but doesn't make the logical conclusion that this is true for _any type of output_ (e.g. text); it always dehumanizing low-effort slop that's not worth looking at, listening to or reading.

This is quite a thoughtful takedown of 'AI', especially in art. It helps characters/express something most of us feel but can't quite explain: https://theoatmeal.com/comics/ai_art

Sometimes I understand why people design new standards or formats when the existing ones can’t be extended (whether due to practical constraints, authority, or bureaucracy) or simply aren’t flexible enough to evolve. I think the XKCD comic doesn’t include that aspect.
And yes, maybe new standards will appear.
#nocontext
So on point - articulates so many of my feelings around this space (though I admit my feelings about use of AI in software are evolving, my feelings about it in creative endeavors have not).

From the first 2 panels I thought they were going to burn the Wolf for cross-dressing as a Grandmother.
'I requested a guarantee that I could be openly out as a lesbian on stage and perform gay material. I am grateful that I was able to do precisely that — to my knowledge, I am the first openly gay comic to talk about it on stage in SA. I received messages sharing how much it meant to participate in a gay-affirming event. At the same time, I deeply regret participating under the auspices of the Saudi government.'

Carolina Panthers | The Panthers Huddle: 'Buckle them Chin Straps' https://www.panthers.com/video/carolina-panthers-the-panthers-huddle-buckle-them-chin-straps
Comix Zone: comically hard
I love the concept, of being pulled into a comic and having to battle through the panels. Having the world shaped by your own hand, and then having enemies drawn in by your enemy is a work of genius. Choosing paths, having to jump across or down past the borders of the picture, is a really engaging mechanic. It looks stunning too, with large sprites which have been drawn full of character and incredibly colourful.
This...holy shit, this hits so hard.

Been reading some of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer comic-books, set after the TV shows ended.
It's a very different world with Buffy and Xander being commanders of a whole slayer army with seemingly massive resources, from a castle being attacked by various supernatural forces.
Very different pacing from the TV show too.
You know that episode of Angel where Spike and Angel are running around in Italy chasing after Buffy who now dates The Immortal?
Turns out it wasn't Buffy at all, but one of her decoys that have been deployed around the world. Andrew thought it would be funny to troll the two vampires by pretending she was dating The Immortal.
The artwork is all great, but sometimes a little rough and I find it challenging since I don't always recognize who is supposed to be who, especially as the artists and styles switch from book to book.
Some of the mini stories feel like just pulling the TV show characters back for no good reason.
I hear rumors of a new Buffy TV show starring SMG with no involvement from Joss, and wonder if it'll assume these stories of visiting the future or fighting with an army from a castle base will be retconned out entirely?
It's an entertaining read and nice to visit those characters again, but doesn't feel much like the TV show because it's such a different setting and Buffy is very different as a commander than a school girl.
