Wow, I guess all we needed was some motivation.

I love seeing the wheels churn from more than one person. Now all we need is an idea. Any idea. It doesn't matter what the idea is, its just a starting point, something to get the ball rolling. Everyone should come up with an idea and go from there. It would need to be something new or different. Think of things like "Blair witch project" or "jackass". Those were great simply because they were new and different, and done so cheaply that they seemed very real. Write any type of story you like. Like cop dramas, think of an idea for a cop drama. Like gay porn? Think of a new line for the plumber when he shows up at the front door. Like epic science fiction? Create a series of universe altering events and work backwards. Create the continuity or setting or background and then create an adventure for a character from that. If aliens suddenly appear, write something about how your average newspaper reporter would handle the event. How would it effect his life.

I've read countless comics and each one had something different and brought a different way of looking at the same events to the table. If we ever actually end up creating something the most we could hope for with a first attempt is to sell it to a major company and get credited as writers. But its a start.

I'd love to start a new website but if I'm the most computerly inclined person here we're in big trouble. This blog is a great place to start and in some cases blogs have resulted in getting a publishing deal. heck, even if all we do is tape a series over funny clips of us doing soothing stupid then maybe we could sell them to comedy central. The possibilities are endless.
