Well, i just re-read my entire comic book for mm. Some shit is still messed, because i was a total n00b when i started, and i was shit with perspective. This is an overlook of my entire comic book (up to date).
The first thing i noticed is that, the entire series actually was made because i was inspired. Many friends critized my stick drawings were stupid. I couldn't help but agree.
Inspiration for my comic book:
- Madness series (Krinkels Main Site Krinkels NG page)
- Left 4 Dead
- Army of Two
- Gears of War 1 and 2
- Need 4 speed/midnight club
- Halo 3 (in a sense i guess)
- My friends and girlfriends (they encouraged my creativety to flow)
- Metal Gear Solid (all of them)
- Much of my music i listen to (some examples is M.I.A. by Avenge Sevenfold, Numbered days by Killswitch engage, and One Step Closer by Linkin Park)
The heaviest influencer I would say is the Madness Series. It features much of the same 'feel' to it. Theres a person always fucking with the balance of the earth. Making zombiez and shit, u know what im talking about. Theres the main characters wish just won't die, much like hank, even tho the odds are against them. The weapons are much influenced by the Madness Series too. And using swords, and guns and shit is also influenced here. Also, I'm going to kill off a main character kind of like in this series too.
Next, Gear of War, influenced the adding of multiple main characters, of melee attachments on gun. Gears also in a sense influenced me killing off a main character, and angering the other characters (AKA, Dom the fag, and Maria). It also influenced the toture room for a character too, and make him want to escape (aka, Tye, or whatever his name is, and delta squad saving him, just no suicide).
Many cars in the comic are influenced by NfS, and Midnight club, well the nice ones atleast (lolololol)
Halo 3 influenced me putting in an ally in the beginning (AKA, the chief and arbitor), and also influenced the melee and shit too.
Army of Two influenced me in making custom guns. Ya and also allies came from this too.
Left 4 Dead influenced me putting zombies in, and how they appeared (aka, Tanks, Chargers and Hunters).
Metal Gear solid also made me break up the group of allies, yet meet up later. It also influenced the stances and stuff like that.
So u see, MM is more of like a colab in a sense then new ideas. Its still my own, but its also others who made MM turn out how it is today. Music tho, i didn't mention in this, but many of the meanings of the song, and of the lyrics influence how the characters were reacting. So ya, im looking forward to making a flash for MM someday soon, but for now, its on pause. When MM is released, u guys better vote 5!!!!
