Posted 06.29.2006 by ToiletmanElgin (73)
Did you see the origin part I? And part II?

Stay tuned, true believers! And see more Elgin here!

You're still doing great, Elgin, and I'm really starting to see yout story line take off. Also, what an awesome revalation for the poop guy!

It's really funny too! Take a good look at the images for some added subliminal stuff...

Fabulous artwork!Great story.You are as talented as any comic book artist or comic strip artist or cartoonist out there.You have a gift.You should be a pro.

Nine Inch Log (337) -- 06.29.2006

Agreed, great work. Looks like it will turn out as a really in depth story (or maybe just several poop jokes, either way it's good). I cannot wait to see the "Power Plunger" in action.

Very nice drawings. But the word-to-picture ratio seems rather high for a comic. And some of those words are BIG. By the way, was one of the frames intentionally made to look like a Viagra-enhanced Rush Limbaugh?

Thunderbox (706) -- 06.29.2006

Yes Logjam - large plungers - are you really into that?

Good stuff again Elgin.

That toilet monster is great! So Doc Octopus.

While it may be trivial, the thing I like abot these cartoons is that the hero is wearing a terry-cloth towel as a cape, or it seems. I used to run around the house with a towel cape as a kid. It's a nice touch.

There is alot of wordage, but you've got alot to say early on, huh?

I'm really starting to like this series. Keep up the good work! I wonder if toiletman will find the FunkBott that ate Crunch and Gadget...

how much stupider can this site get?! this is the lamest thing i've ever seen my god grow up and learn some real humor!!!

ToiletmanElgin (73) -- 07.02.2006

anonymous coward, you thing THIS is lame??? You havent seen lame yet! I'm a MUCH lamer writer than you can possibly imagine!! who wants to grow up anyway. Just sit down, push hard, take a dump... you'll be alright... You can even use the comic for toilet paper...
Daphne, that IS a terry cloth towel! a throwback from my childhood when I use to play hero. I imagine as the comic progresses the look of the characters will evolve somewhat, as i get fresh ideas...
I admit there IS a large word to picture ratio, Im really working on condensing this thing... gee, it's harder than I thought... kinda like constipation...push, breathe, push...
Logjam your quote, "...was one of the frames intentionally made to look like a Viagra-enhanced Rush Limbaugh?..." cracked me up!

In the next installment Im going to go a little into detail about the funkbots race and what they're doing here, and once that's done we'll really be ready to spring into action! Prepare to be amazed, entertained..or extremely bored and dissappointed...

The other day, in the park, I saw two men kissing. And until I saw this comic, that was the gayest thing I'd ever seen.

I'm sure there's a lot of time and effort invested in this, but it really, really sucks.

Message for the artist.

You need to use black and white more effectively. Your art is difficult to read because you don't use enough black.

For your reference (and homework), there's a good description on this here:

How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way
by Stan Lee, John Buscema

Chapter's 9 and 12.

ToiletmanElgin (73) -- 07.05.2006

It's supposed to suck, dont you get it? and as for the book you recommended, I have it. I've read it. Im NOT following it. Yes, I DO know about "spotting enough black" and all that other stuff..I'm making a choice not to do it. If you dont like it, dont read it. This is America, we have choices. If you want to exercise your choice, than go to your local comic shop, and make your's Marvel! I'm not making a living doing this, I'm not trying to "get into the industry" and I'm certainly not trying to impress anyone,It's entertainment, and hopefully a diversion. This is a FUN site! are we hyaving fun yet? I guess not.

The fact that you inspire so many people to like it and so many people to hate it, Elgin, is a sign that you're doing something right. If everyone likes it, then you're doing something people have already grown comfortable with. The best ideas are always the ones people argue about.

ToiletmanElgin (73) -- 07.06.2006

Anyone who takes a comic about poop SERIOUSLY has some real issues anyway so the comment actually amusing. Also, Dave, is pretty open to people participating on this site and contributing anything they want to make it entertaining for the readers. If "AC" doesnt like what he sees, thinks it sucks, then let him create something and show us how it's done. If not, let him sit down, push hard, take a dump and dont forget to whipe and flush.
I'm not against criticism, if it's constructive,but for someone to take cheap shots to satisfy their own , I dont know, ego??? like I said, he's got issues.
It's alwasys easy to criticize...hard to create.

Double Flush (588) -- 07.06.2006

Honestly I like it. I'm a fan of the new style and the new story. Forget the thing about all comics being made the same way. I keep looking forward to the next one, ever since I saw the first one. Keep it up!

This comic stinks. I mean, I can smell it from here. Either that, or my boss farted in the hall again.

ToiletmanElgin (73) -- 07.06.2006

Scott Mccloud, The author of Understanding Comics, has frequently talked about the need for New voices to enter the sequential art community, and points out that while there ARE quote, "industry standards" as far as storyline, pacing, spotting blks, etc. so called rules can be broken to suit the needs, and abilities of individual creators.
And coward, In addition to my crappy comic, I think what you're really smelling is your upper lip, your unbrushed teeth, or maybe your dirty drawers. Darn it man! i TOLD you to remember to WHIPE BEFORE you get off the bowl, son!

Logjam (2289) -- 07.06.2006

Toiletman, you may appreciate this. In 1981, I was living in a house shared by the girlfriend of Peter Laird. I got to know him fairly well. At the time he was doing some freelance drawing but mostly earning money operating a comic book shop in Northampton, MA, back when the rents there were cheap. His parents thought he was headed nowhere. About two years later I ran into him -- he was all excited about the new drawings he had just done with Kevin Eastman (which he showed me) of TMNT. I walked away thinking to myself that the cheese had finally slipped off his cracker. Two years after that, I was bragging to everyone about sort of knowing him. Anyway, keep plugging away at what you feel passionate about, and screw the critics.

ToiletmanElgin (73) -- 07.07.2006

Ha! now THAT'S one crazy story! and YES, I did appreciate it! Stanger things have and DO happen. Like I said earlier, I'm NOT trying to "get into the industry" but having fun here, but... I certainly wouldnt turn down any offers! LOL! I might have mentioned this earlier but my wife dubbed me Toiletman years ago while I was doing battle with out crappy plumbling. I showed the first drafts of this to a friend years ago and he said, wouldnt it be funny if this blew up and youe became famous for it? I'd like to thank Poopreport and it's readership, in advance, just in case...
