Sneak peak
I have put sneak peaks of QK and SS under collections as well as the Little Tokyo set!
I would love to see someone pull off a remake Dio story! I would love to do a dio version of "Countdown for Zartan"!

I have thought about that a lot. and Countdown for Zartan would be a great one to use. Also the Cobra Quake one with QK and Bazooka.

This thread gives me some good insight. Everyone seems to have different preferences.

What about in mine where it's mainly told from the pov of Cobra. Would they be considered the good guys/protagonists?
I've also heard people say they mainly like non-sequitur stuff. Or maybe I just suck at story telling...
For me, I just like reading online comics and dio stories are my favorite of the group. But, I guess it'd be important that it be easy to read. ex: if I can make out the text; the text bubbles are in an order that are easy to follow; has clear photos. If there's interesting character development then that's a major plus. That over rides story telling as a reader.

Cobra POV
I like the idea of dio stories being told from several points of view. I would like to see someone do a story...and back story of a Cobra trooper. just an everyday down on his luck poor sucker who decides Cobra is the direction for him!

I have thought about this, a lot actually. and doing one from a green shirt POV. But it would be a lot of work doing the sets. Mainly because I would want to show then training. But if you're looking, you need to try and find 2 done by Frank Nash and Shane Welin. They did 2 about troopers, about the training and what made them decide to join Cobra. Great stories IMO.

Check out the DIOS section, it has an amazing story of a Cobra "basic training" unit. Ender used to be one of the best here until the dramagate a couple years back ran him and most of the other good guys off.

That is the dio story I was talking about. And yes, he and most of the others that made this a great place are now gone. For what reason I do not know for sure. It all happened when I took a break from Joes. I still have them on Facebook though, there still doing the same ol' Joe thing.

Good stuff
Im reading a whole bunch of good stuff and getting inspired at the same time! Im a little ways away from even choosing my next project! I do my dio comics beginning middle end...Im noticing many people load them up two or three pages at a time under the dio section...does this make it easier for people to read? I really like the idea that when people click on my link they get to read a complete story.

For me, context is everything in a dio story. The underlying reasons for Joe or Cobra doing what they do, an individual's reasons (or fortune/misfortune) for ending up where they are, the wider context in which all of that develops . The richness of the stories I like to see is in the realisation that "heros can be in the mentalities of both sides" and that nothing is black and white.
