What drew you to 8-Bit Theatre? - Page 33

KidRichard · 11-17-2005, 09:55 AM

8-bit was my first web comic as well. I was directed here by a small frame in Electronic Gaming Monthly depicting BM and WM. That was something like 4 years ago. At any rate, it was before he had reached 100 comics. I think it was somewhere around the "Survivor 8-bit Style" comics, but I'm not for sure.

I heard about it a lot on BnG and see several references scattered around the net, so I came to see what it was all about.
I'm glad I did.

I first found 8 bit theater from a link at the Planet Zebeth website.

I remember seeing it on a guild on another forum, just the first two episodes. Theyre awesome^^

I'll never forget my first contact with 8-bit. I was browsing through another forum and I came across an interesting signature. It read:

"Well, you know what they say: 'The corpse you find may be your own.'"
"They do not say that."
"Well it is hard to speak with six inches of knife sticking out of your face. Mostly they just gurgle....And bleed...."

I laughed myself into a stupor when I read that, and became intrigued by this "8-bit theatre". But having been chained to dial-up internet, I didn't have the initiative with seek it out. Fortunately, one of my best friends soon discovered it on his own, and he later introduced me. I've been hooked since the first episode.

I was first shown it through a friend of mine. One day he's like, "You really should read 8-Bit Theater." I didn't at first, but they kept referencing it and eventually I checked it out. I then spent hours a day for a week reading the first 100 and 60-some comics on my dial up connection. After reading 20 a day and getting caught up I've been an avid reader ever since and that was 3 years ago. So HUZZAHH!!! to Brian.

I guess the intelligent and sarcastic point of view from Brian's labyrinth-like mind, is probably what inspired me to start comicking in the first place. He manages to transform pixels into practically real-life people with sub-human qualities.

I was watchin flash films and saw a link, now I'm an avid fan.

Flashplayer.com back when the first flash was popular. Watched it. I told my friend to watch it. He did. Then he googled 8-bit theatre. This came up. He read the first like 100, then told me. Now I read each one the day it comes out... actually the day before. Since i live in the Midwest (Woohoo!) I get comics at 11 o'clock PM Monday, Wednesday, and Friday =p

I was reading a thread in an FF forum on game FAQS, and kept seeing quotes from 8Bit theater, like "Sweet zombie Jesus on a pogo stick! We're screwed." in peoples' sigs. So, I got curious, found the site for the comics, and started reading from Episode 1, and worked my way forward. Took me about two weeks to get caught up, and now I'm glad I did. This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen...
