Ninja and Pirate

Well, hi there! How did you get in here? Through the interwebs? Witchcraft, I say! Anyway, while I’m setting up the burning altar, let me tell you some cool stuff!

Anyway, today’s comic isn’t that funny but it does feature super-cool and important PLOT DEVELOPMENT!! ZOMG CONFLICT ARISES AND STORY STRUCTURE AND ARCS AND STUFF! So yeah this week may be a bit of a dud like last week (judging by the view count) but after about three to four weeks with Skinflint I figured I should progress things a bit. But the more viewers I get the more comics I can make and the faster I can move things along!

So in today’s comic Ninja and Dr. Whoo have some problems working together, as I’m sure you can tell. Ninja may not be that great of a ninjitsu master as he demonstrated last week, and Dr. Whoo may not be as dumb as he let on. Is this part of his scheme to escape? Does he just enjoy biting Ninja? Has Ninja lost Pirate’s best friend for good? Will Capone and his gang rule the streets of Chicago forever? Stay tuned same Ninja time same Pirate channel!

In case you missed it I had a guest spot on the mar­velous web­comic Gal­lant Adven­tures! My good friend Paul has a comic at gallantadventurescomic.com and I was able to kid­nap his girl­friend and force him to allow me to post a guest comic there! I mean, he asked for my assis­tence com­pletely with­out any vio­lence or threats on my part (mostly). Gal­lant Adven­tures is a fan­tas­tic all-ages comic drawn by one of the most tal­ented peo­ple I have ever met. He also has a rockin’ beard. Seri­ously though if you need great inked work check out Paul’s stuff. He takes com­mis­sionstoo and is well worth your hard-earned dime!

In other news, I am going to the Fan Days Con in Dal­las in Octo­ber! You should all come out to see me and get cool stuff like key­chains, mag­nets, busi­ness cards, cool prints and draw­ings, and maybe even a Dr. Whoo plushie! It’s gonna be fun! You can meet me and shake my hand and/or punch me in the throat (depend­ing on how much you enjoy/despise the comic adven­tures of Ninja and Pirate).

Also make sure to tell your friends about Ninja and Pirate’s weekly adven­tures. Get them to read it and tell their friends. The more read­ers I have means the more often I can post comics. If I get enough inter­est gen­er­ated in this comic I can start pro­duc­ing mer­chan­dise for you all, and if start mak­ing enough income from this comic I can increase the num­ber of comics per week! I would love to just do comics for you lovely peo­ple, plus it would make the story lines go a lot faster! So tell your friends and loved-ones about Ninja and Pirate and have them do the same!

Enjoy the new links page! In it is a bunch of links that lead to some fan­tas­tic web­comics and blogs that I fre­quent and are well worth your time! Care­ful though! The links are quite hot! …get it? Guys?

I have a deviantart account under the name JMFlan­ders and it has a bunch of my other work on it. Work that’s dras­ti­cally dif­fer­ent from Ninja and Pirate. Give it a glance if you want. I’m open for com­mis­sions too! You can also fol­low me under the name @ninjaandpirate on Twitter!

My friend Paul’s lovely female carbon-based unit com­pan­ion Sheila and a few of my friends are also start­ing an art blog called artveg­eta­bles! It’s great because it’s all about the tips and tricks of draw­ing with meth­ods, research, and tech­niques! It’s gonna be great!

Welp, that’s it for now! I’ll see you all next week! Stick around and pass the word on about NinjaandPirate.com!
