Who are some characters you want to see more of? Who are some characters you want to see less of? What kind of battles do you like, hand to hand, gun fights or all out with vehicles? Do you enjoy more action, more story or a combination of both? Do you like female characters? Do you like romance between characters?

I like a combo of action & story.
Romance is a bit tricky to pull off.


Here is an idea I had but not sure how it can be pulled off...
A JoeDios site diostory where each participant creates a chapter.
I suppose the best option is for participants to choose characters from a roster. Each person only uses those characters in their chapter. However there should be some cooperation between authors if they will have communication between characters in their chapters. The story in the chapters should be linked somehow.

For me, the type of content (characters, action, whatever) isn't important as long as it's done well.

Don't Like: 1) Romantic side stories (i.e., Scarlett/Duke/Snake Eyes), but that's always been a pet peeve of mine.
2) The fact that I have yet to do one.
3) Scenes with guys jerkin' it in the field while others are right next to them .

Like: 1) When Cobra Commander, and Cobra overall, are made to look like real bad-ass threats and not just a bunch of morons like in the cartoon.
2) When the good-guys don't always win.

Tried something similar on Joecustoms years and years ago (I think around 2005, I know it was right before Valor vs. Venom). It was a disaster as half the guys never kept up with thier end. Hopefully if this idea is picked up that won't happen again.

Personally I can handle anything as long as it's someone's own thing and not trying to redo what has been done before. That is a hard order but is possible, I think that characters, ect, ect come through much clearer with a real story behind it.

We did something like that a few years back. People had their names down and on certain days of the week that person would have to post 3 panels continuing the dio story from where the other left it. It went on a bit, but with only 3 panels to do anything with it wasn't that good.

For me we don't all need to do a combined dio story, but it would be great if say people started joining Joervere's. My cousin and I have our Joeverse combined. we can't do anything drastic that would effect a character if we don't talk it out with the other so as to not distort their Joeverse. We also have to keep it accurate as to what happens in each others. It's hard, but the good thing is we can use each others custom characters.

It would be great to treat it like a comic book, where you had a crossover every so often. But to do that peoples Joeverse's would have to be in synch.

A good idea that would be simple is to do one like Image comics did back in the day. Not a crossover, but rather everyone exchanges custom characters and do a on shot dio story. Let's say Larry, Curly and Moe have their own custom characters. Moe would do a one shot dio story about Larry's, Larry would do one about Curly's and Curly would do one about Moe's. you would have to keep it true to form, and not kill anyone off that would effect the others Joeverse. Nothing of impact that could change the character or his story in anyway. Just a great story.
