Gurral, The Smasher

Post by OgreTusk »

OgreTusk here, creator and fanfic writer for Gurral the Smasher. I'd like to submit for your approval http://gurralcomic.com. It's a comic about a giant genetically engineered kaiju who battles other kaiju in the Arena to feed his addiction to a mineral that can only be obtained through such service.

There are 4 comics so far, and I'm working on a 4th, which will not be the 4th of the fanfics, but instead the newest. I hope you all enjoy!

I really appreciate the compliment :D

Let me know what you think of the content please. I'm expanding the 5th comic to have a lot more story, and will be continuing down that line with an arc.

Ya'll needa read this now. The art is rockin, the fights are easy to follow, the concept is interesting.

The beasties are all neat designs and have some tricks up their sleeve, besides the first one but that is understandable. The idea of arena fighting plays well, and in four issues a good amount of story was established.

An addict arena fighter. You can go so many directions here. And now that he is where he is on the end of issuse four will he be recalled? Either way you do good work.

Thanks a lot for that. It always encourages me to continue(though I would anyways due to a love of the subject) when I get positive reviews. I'm planning to bring in a secondary character, along with expanding the out-of-fight story a bit with the next issue, which has just begun production. Expect it during the first quarter of next year!

Sweet. Good work is good work. It deserves recognition. Might I add that this thread might be a better fit in the Monster Manor section? It so far seems a completely original work.

It is completely original, and I didn't know that the Monster Manor section existed :( Can a mod move this?

I remember seeing this fella back when he debuted in CKC, i had no idea he had a comic series!? So i just had to read these! Read them all and i love it! Gurral is pretty cool, i will admit it felt weird knowing that all of these intelligent beings were actually kaiju but it felt natural too. Kaiju designs were sick, art was fantastic. Even though we see Tanner for a little bit, i am very intrigued by his character, heck, i wanna see him and Hulk fight! :huge:
A fantastic comic overall. :D

The story is about to get a new chapter. I'll have my artist begin work on the next issue within this month!

Also, you should know that Gurral now has a fully animated 3d model that I'm working on getting modded into Ark, Survival Evolved.

Your monster's come a long way since the CKC days, great to see you're having some success in getting your creation off the ground

I really appreciate the positive responses. I am working on a "Meet the cast" page that is just a small stats and bio for each character.

KaijuNoir on Youtube reviewed my comic.
