This is a custom ad I made for advertising at Real Life, a comic by Greg Dean (click for full size). It is worth noting that this Greg mentioned in this ad is THAT comic's Greg, and not the Greg from my comic.
I intend to make more custom ads to be used with specific sites, as those seem to perform better than my generic ads. It's difficult to sum up EGS in a 160x600 pixel ad, but I can sure as heck get people's curiosity going.
I will be posting additional ads made here, and might also make a new section on the site for them. I would just post them as Sketchbooks, but as with the whole "not this Greg, that Greg" thing, there's a LOT of room for confusion when referencing other people's comics.
Incidentally, this is probably the closest I'm likely to get to doing crossover comics...
Ha, that made me giggle. I approve.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good ad but I would go with more contrasting colours for a background. Real life has a blue background, your ad will stand out more if you use green.
ReplyDeleteI was drawn here by the '80% of the girls in this image will cry' one. Humor, IMO, is more important than actually summing up the comic.
ReplyDeleteI was drawn here by a Keenspot ad back during... I think it was during Painted Black (although it might have been late Sister or Night Out) For the life of me, I can't remember what the ad was, though. If anybody can remember (or has the image), let me know.
ReplyDeleteThis is how I first heard of your comic. Finished reading it through the whole thing the next day.
ReplyDeleteThis image is funny! I really would like to see this ad elsewhere!
