Thank You, Brian

SuperMangoMan · 03-29-2010, 06:18 PM

I've been reading the comic over the last few years, and it's always given me something to smile about, rain or shine. I know that it must be hard to continue working on something that you cannot readily make money off of, but I must say, you've done a fantastic job with 8-bit theater. I've become an avid reader of yours, and I look forward to see what you do with your other works in progress (I've been enjoying Atomic Robo, HIKYM, and Warbot quite a bit.)

I thought it would be nice to have a thank you thread now that it seems that 8-bit theater is truly over (though there may be another page in the works.)

Thank you for all of the hard work you've put into 8-bit, Brian. Once again, I look forward to what you have in store for us in the future.

I want to thank Brian too. The comic is one of the best in the history of mankind.

(Never mind that Brian is probably gonna hate this thread with all passion, since his declared goal is to piss us off, not to make us smile happily and thank him... It's "Realworld-Fighter-Girl-Gainax-Ending" all over again.)

I to wish to thank you Brian. You are a great writer Mr. Clevinger, and I will be sure to try and pick up Atomic Robo when I find a book store that carries it.

Thank you, sir. While it saddens me to see the end of a comic that I have read fairly loyally for about 5 years now, I want to thank you for all the laughs that you have provided me. I'm not lying when I say that 8-Bit Theater has gotten me through some of the awkward nerdy phases of puberty, and at this point I turned myself into a reasonable facsimile of a functioning member of society. So without any sarcasm I say again, thanks.

Unless the ending is a trick and you're actually going to continue it, in which case I withdraw everything I just said.

Awesome job, Brian. You kept giving us this comic even at the expense of more profitable ventures. You are one class act, and I will always be grateful. Naturally I will be expressing that gratitude by buying Atomic Robo comics!

justice~! · 03-29-2010, 10:05 PM

Me too man. What a great comic. I have been reading almost since the inception, with a brief break only to be catching up back when they got the class change. The "it is time to become legendary" panel is still my all-time favorite.

Chocobo · 03-29-2010, 10:52 PM

Yeah I don't think 8-Bit Theater's going to go on anymore, except for maybe an epilogue strip or two.

The Sevenshot Kid · 03-29-2010, 11:10 PM

Thank you so much, Mr. Clevinger. You've inspired me to try and become a better writer and to do something that makes people happy. Binging through the archives has been one of the things that has actually made me happy this week and that really means a lot to me. You are, without a doubt, my favorite writer.

I like to think a little slice of 8-Bit Theater will live on. Not on our Tuesday's or Saturday's, but on our Thursday's.

Over at LFG.

Can I get away with 'Ditto'? I don't think I can. Darn...

I think I discovered this comic around nine years ago, somewhere around #20. It took less than an hour to get caught up, but I've been hooked ever sense. Every week, I've looked forward to 8-bit Theater. The jokes told in it have been things I've repeated for friends and some strangers. As I write this, I look at one of Matt Speroni's 8-bit inspired images as the wallpaper on my 2nd monitor. The point I'm getting at is that 8-bit Theater has been more than just an entertaining web comic. It's become something more, a piece of my life. My very soul....or maybe I'm just messin' with ya! ;-)

No, really...thank you for your work. May it go down in history as one of our era's great pieces of literature.
