Well it is a good concept at least. Except that it could be done better.

Jesus, it was very well done. You must have spent the last six months making these comic strips. I like the wry humor too.

i think it's done quite nicely actually. good different camera angles,
face expressions, and actually quite humourous. had a few laughs here
and there, like with gman hiding behind that crate, the expl. barrels,
michelle, the cs-talk... and also the subtle humour like the
combine on the swing. i like how you took the hl2 story-flow here
and there and made your own story inside it, like when he goes looking
for that apartment. two thumbs up

I'm following that one for a while now. I like the humor. Just funny,
how he thinks up for reasons for Frohman to be in the exact same
situations as Freeman... :smile:

The comic also contains a lot of references for insiders. I like that kind of detail. Gotta love those titles, too...

Well, when i stated it could have done better, i mean "I don't exactly
think its all to funny". Either that or Its a different kind of humor I
just am not getting, like Napoleon Dynamite

lol I just read the part where he gets teleported to CS:S. That part is
VERY funny. Mostly because its all true. IM a big CS:S person, and not
much a HL2 or HL2DM person. I haven't even been past like 30 minutes
into HL2 ^_^. But it was still funny.

Just a joke from fishy's side, I suppose?

Anyway, I think it's really good fun this comic but it's the kind of
humor that you either like, or don't like. Some of my friends for
example, totally didn't like it.

I think the answer to that is less complementary than you want to know. :rolleyes:

I loved the part where one of the other guys says: "You mean the sausage King of chi..." f**king brilliant Ferris Bueller's Day Off is just a classic. It's the first thing I thought of when I read "Gordon Frohman"

I wrote to the author/artist. I found out that we were born in the same year.

You should check out his website and blog also. It's quite interesting.
