archamedes 238 Posted September 1, 2014 I was thinking of putting together a comic of Dayz I have made quite a few, one of which has been submitted to Image comics and awaiting review (see pics below) and I do have my own website with a variety of different comics in many different art forms http://dj-comics.com/comics/ So my question is, how would people feel about a Dayz Comic & what would you like for the back story on how it all started? I like the idea that the crashed ship in Rify brought the infection and all the sailors were sick and crashed on chernarus. Then after a while everything goes dark & a team of CDC type scientists are sent to check out whats going on, and everything goes haywire & our main character is left stranded here and has to figure out whats happened, meet other survivors, deal with bandits and all the like, but with an actual Story put in place to make it more interesting. What do you think? Also the below pics are from my recent comic thats going in for publication 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ld-airgrafix 403 Posted September 2, 2014 Another comic book artist , nice. I have thought about doing a dayz survivor comic as well. Not sure about copyrights though.My idea was about couple of foreigners aged 18-24, on a bus from moscow to chernaurus. Maybe we can collaborate, start a survivor series or something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hetstaine 10852 Posted September 2, 2014 Nice work :) Best i got was this here Cliffs of Dover Comic i did many years back. Whatever you do with a Dayz comic,make it original. Good luck man :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
q.S Sachiel 470 Posted September 2, 2014 also include some KoS and hacker fan service as a what-the moment if you cant figure it out ;)like 1 tile of a flying tank, or clothes being ripped off your body by ghosts, but it was all just a dream... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ld-airgrafix 403 Posted September 2, 2014 We can use real members from this forum to populate the comic. Who wants to be the governor of dayz ha ha put your name down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
q.S Sachiel 470 Posted September 2, 2014 Throw a forum mod in as the villain/stalker killer and Dean Hall's corpse somewhere, being eaten by a swarm of 12yo zed's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did the art and the story but used a writer/friend that helped me with the dialogue Edited September 2, 2014 by archamedes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captain_finnish 134 Posted September 2, 2014 Very nice! I think that DayZ has a lot of potential storytelling to be made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archamedes 238 Posted September 2, 2014 In terms of copyrights it depends on company to company but so long as you don't gain any revenue from making it they are usually thankful for the free publicity. I did the official comic for frontier: elite 2 (Classic pc game from 1992) and the forum went mad, I released it for free and by the time I made all 5 comics it had been translated into 10 different languages and had ended up on numerous elite websites with thousands of recorded downloads so I must have done something right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
