I've been talking with DeantheAdequate from one of my old guilds and he's put together a little webcomic project. You can get a rough view of what's to come on his blog which I'll plug farther down. The working title at the moment is "Bored Nerd". Here's what he had to say about it during our impromptu interview.

Redilarus: So whats the plot run-down?
DeanTheAd: Well, Dean The Adequate owns/operates a huge arena, and he's fallen on hard times. The first story arc involves the fact his secondaries (You included) have finally taken on a paying job. Hosting a convention.
DeanTheAd: Hilarity ensues.
Redilarus: I absolutely can't wait. Are you gonna post it in your blog?
DeanTheAd: Yes.

DeanTheAd: Alright, the first photo is blogged.
Redilarus: To the interweb!
Redilarus: I'm a little sad that it's out of focus, but I like the angle. :3
DeanTheAd: Yeah, I'm working on the focus, real problem had been lighting.
Redilarus: No lamps?
DeanTheAd: Not useful ones. And I've learned flash on toys at a close up? Bad idea.
Redilarus: I'd predict heavy shadowing.
Redilarus: Not to mention bleaching out of some features
DeanTheAd: Yeah, it was like looking at burning effigys.
Redilarus: Are we talking Arc of the Covenant class?
DeanTheAd: Seriously. Big white heads.
Redilarus: Yeesh.
Redilarus: So I must ask, which one is you?
DeanTheAd: Neither, this one was poking fun at "Big O"
Redilarus: Ah, just a test
DeanTheAd: I plan on switching it up sometimes. Just anime jokes.
DeanTheAd: A "Phil Ken Sebban" figure from Harvey Birdman will be "Dean"
Redilarus: XD Suiting.
DeanTheAd: I thought so. Besides, he has a permenant lowball glass in his left hand!
Redilarus: Lowball glass?
DeanTheAd: It's a short glass used for frinking scotch or gin, sometimes over ice.
Redilarus: Ah.. I think I know the kind. How classy
Redilarus: So can I prod at the story?
DeanTheAd: Well, so far I have the idea for the first strip. It involves a hiring of a new secretary that happens to be Ryoko from "Tenchi Muyo". It's resolved with Dean blowing her away with a huge gun. And a risque joke of course.
Redilarus: XD
DeanTheAd: As for the storyarc, it'll involve just mingling with the anime fans, pointing out some far fetched notions. ("Did you know that when catgirls have sex thier ears fall off?" "...*Drink* Lady, I have seen hours of Hentai that proves your theory null and void." wink
Redilarus: :laughs: Will these be multiple frames or a single frame format?
DeanTheAd: SOme days multiple, I want to do one panel gags for the straight from anime/video game jokes.
Redilarus: Nice.. did you come up with any backgrounds?
DeanTheAd: Not yet. I'm musing on that one. I may just go with the construction paper, and get creative with things I find in my basement.
Redilarus: What figures do you know you're using for sure?
DeanTheAd: Wellsa, I have "Dean" down. An Obi Wan Kanobi figure representing a buddy of mine, and perhaps the eldest Paper Sister as a love intrest/overly violent love interest.
Redilarus: Not sure on the overly violent part yet?
DeanTheAd: Nah
DeanTheAd: I've got time.
DeanTheAd: I also have to raid my shed and see what's in there toy wise.

As I said, you can find the comic here on his blog: Thrilling Tales of Daring Do!!! Be sure to drop him some feedback.
