Yeah! I'd really love some feedback
guys. I'll probably begin by discussing
what I hated (thought) of the season.

Let's first review. Our main characters well
you can see all the characters on this page
[link]
Though there needs to be updates to
Lt. Benjamin's page as he had his
skull crushed by Rorschach. Let's
take a stroll down memory lane as when
season four begins it will be the year
anniversary of the bane of deviantart
that is COLLECTIBUBBIES.


Season 1-
The comic had no idea as to where the hell it was
going. I just knew I wanted to base the main
characters on me, and my friends. Alex (me)
became Doctor Pwnage (a guise I have taken
before). Jonathan became Jonjamo. Cory
became CVance and Justin became
Lord Howell. The comic was to be inspired
by our college antics. Which was...silly
since we had one month left of college.
So some stories at the beginning
were inspired by actual things from
the first semester, and second of our
freshman year. Obston-Bay was based
on our roommate from the 1st
semester. Kramer on our neighbor
etc. The story arcs were brief
and based on real life happenings.
The Deus Ex Machina was my first attempt
to do something story driven and comical
at the same time.

Season 2-
Season 2 began entirely focused on story
telling. Which was either hated or loved.
Red Hood was a new villain and worked as
a red herring. Some felt that there should
be more of the smaller joke based comics/arcs.
I feel that I did focus too much on story
although I screwed up there I feel I did a few
things right. Namely I established Rex and Lt.
Benjamin as well as the policing force in the
Bubbyverse. Yes that's what I'm calling it.
It also established some of the immense
back story for the Bubbyverse. It also
worked up the character of HAL who I
thought was a neat idea. Hitler, as the
villain worked more like what I had in
mind the first time I used him. Chigurdrah
was also better utilized. I like the story
elements, and the new characters. Looking
back, however, It seems like a different
comic. More like a crime toy photo comic
with the Collectibubbies cast as guest stars.
What did I do wrong in addition? I never
played up the hatred the police had for
Supers that well. I also should have
never done the body switching story. It
was foreshadowing for an abandoned story
arc however.

Season 3-
For season 3 I felt there was an obvious story.
I had mentioned Supers a lot in the 2nd Season.
So I wanted to utilize them. I also wanted to
bring back the short joke or random comics.
I also utilize Jupiter Waltz (a character briefly
seen in Season 1) much better here. A romance
was initially to have ensued between Jupiter
and Jonjamo. It would have resulted in Jonjamo vs
Nite Owl. However I had introduced Destiny in
Season 2. So, no to that. Though pieces of
it still exist in the finished version. A lot
of story was cut out that makes me sad. Nite Owl's
father for example, and more of the reasons that
led to his choosing to kill off the supers.
It still works (sort of) but I had to make
it more obvious than I would have wanted.
The jokes are obviously not to everyone's
tastes but bear with me. The story is basically
one big homage to Watchmen, and unfortunately it
seems like Supers The Web Comic with Collectibubbies.
The jokes spread throughout the season help
make it less painful. The reason they are involved
in Season 1's main finale is basically that they know
Barrack Obama. Season 2's? Destiny basically sees the villain
succeeding and Jonjamo refers her to the Collectibubbies.
Which is a lot of offscreen story. Season 3 is
that they've dealt with Red Hood's treachery, which
is not entirely true, but not false either.
Personally I don't know why they don't suspect HAL.
Since he's the last of the villains from Season 2 who is
at Large. Oh wellz. Time and panel space restrict one.
So here's the deal...


SEASON FOUR
Season four was inspired by random thoughts and a
joke about Scientology. The Collectibubbies are
going to be brought into the story in a matter
much less jarring than before. We'll also
get to see celebrities Tom Cruiser and
John Travolzilla. What do I want from you guys?
Suggestions? Who are your favorite characters,
if any? What criticism do you have? Or hell
tell me what is good and what you want more of.
Thanks for taking time to read this.

I used to read Twisted Kaiju Theater pretty thoroughly. I initially had a pencil/paper comic titled Doctor Pwnage. Most of the characterization found in that was put into Collectibubbies. I re-read TKT and realized I should use toy/photo comics as an outlet for my storytelling and that's what gave me the idea.
