		<description>I recently made my very first motion comic: http://www.aniboom.com/competitions/Marvel/399870/SNIKT-versus-RRRaaaRRR/

Prior to starting work on it I didn&#039;t have any opinions either way regarding motion comics.  But once I created my piece I realized that it could be creatively satisfying as making a traditional print comic.

Thank you in advance if you check my piece out.</description>

		<description>What are these nitwits trying to pull here? The first Voltron &quot;motion comic&quot; DVD came out two years ago; the second about a year and a half ago. The Street Fighter one came out over six months ago. They are not making these now; they&#039;ve ALREADY MADE THEM. Either the copywriter shouldn&#039;t be writing copy or he&#039;s trying to pull the wool over someone&#039;s eyes. The only thing BRAND NEW about these &quot;motion comics&quot; is that they&#039;ve managed to trick an idiotic cable outlet into putting them on television.

As an aside, they&#039;re not jumping on the bandwagon -- Eagle One BUILT the bandwagon, but back when they tried to get it rolling, nobody wanted a part of it. Dig around on their website; they&#039;re the ones who made all those CrossGen, Ultimate Marvel, and Daredevil &quot;motion comic&quot; DVDs nobody wanted that littered anime DVD sections for years in the early 2000&#039;s.

&lt;b&gt;Charles RB&lt;/b&gt;: These AREN&#039;T animated cartoons. These are comic books -- actual comics, which you can go out and buy and read yourself -- with the panels all cut apart and thrown up on your TV screen or monitor with limited animation and actors doing the dialog. A cheap-to-produce way to convert pre-existing work into another bloody revenue stream. The only one I&#039;ve ever watched was the one that came free with the standard version of Michael Bay&#039;s Transformers movie on DVD at Wal-Mart; heaven knows I&#039;d never pay money for one. If I want to watch a cartoon, I&#039;ll watch a cartoon; if I want to read a comic book, I&#039;ll read a comic book. I have no interest in a lazy bastard format in-between.</description>

		<description>I agree. The whole motion comics trend is really starting to wear on me. They&#039;re sort of like those Free Credit Report.com commercials on TV. The first time I saw one it was interesting but mildly annoying. Now, I&#039;m starting to equate them with the anti-christ. The Watchmen motion comic just destroyed every bit of what Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons were trying to do with the story they were presenting. I have yet to see a motion comic that actually enhances the original source material.</description>
