Death Bell

Thu Jul 2, 2009, 9:04 PM
So I guess I'll talk about what the Death Bell idea was since people on a poll seem to be interested. Of course by interested, I mean six people chose it. Anyway here's what it is.

So I think most people chose it cause they think it's going to be a Death Note parody, which couldn't be further from the intent. Death Bell was an idea I had when I was in some crazed Creative Stupor. I came up with it quick as a sort of anime parody, taking alot of the cliches of most Shonen manga and trying to incorporate them into this silly little story. It started off with a boy waking up and discovering one of his arms is just bare bones, yet still functional. He has no memory of who he is or where he came from (yay cliches!) but all around him is death and destruction. Following him is a giant bell, designed to look like an oddly shaped human skull. Others can see it, and seem to know what it is, but only the boy can hear it talking to him. Whenever the boy strikes the bell with his skeleton fist, anybody who hears the sound dies instantly. So it was about him trying to find out who he was, why had this bell, and so on and so on. There was gonna be a lot of that PEACE IS THE ANWSER VIOLENCE IS BAD stuff on the heroes part, but of course it would always end with him striking the bell, and killing everyone. I started to dislike the idea, as I had made it too complicated (far more complicated then this brief sum up) and even though i was going to make fun of cliches, I'd still have to rely on them to tell the story. Overall I do still like the character though and would like to do something with it all. Oddly, the bell developed the strongest personality. It floats around talking to the main guy, usually berating him and egging him on. He was fun to write dialouge for in my head. But yeah, the idea would be different now. I think the main guy would take on more the role of The Wandering Mysteryman if I did something with it. Still interested?

Long nonsense!!!

Heres a list of shit I'm working on:

A Sally Jewels comic collection, redoing alot of the OC entries to be better drawn and stand better on their own.

A short young reader's novel.

Thumbnailing Uh Oh Mouse: Maul.

Heres a list of shit I want to do:

A long book, as part of NaNoWriMo

Maybe Death Bell?

A short six page comic for fun


The space between my aspirations and talent, and reality is very long, and uncrossable.

PS: I don't want to talk about CrabPot right now, but I will in a future update. It's not looking good.

PPS: If you have a copy of BlazBlue for the 360 and want to play a game with me, note me your Xbox live name!

For a second, I thought you were going to do a Zatch Bell meets Death Note parody.

Both deal with books, so that came in mind.

I personally opted for 'Death Bell' because I liked the idea of you basing an entire comic series on this: [link]

You would've been sorely disappointed!

:iconxenonxylophone:
Well, judging from the synopsis you've written, this will go at least some way to making amends.
