HH script002:
Here we have the Galaxy of Durdadurdadur. The Durdadurdadurians fled millions of years ago, and now only a handful of planets are occupied.

Once such planet circles a large yellow star, probably not unlike the pl;anet You are from.

Planet Glork, with its 23 moons and lush wildreness, is home to a very special place in the cosmos: Honeysuckle Heights.

This particular city was choosen to be the hub for all new planets entering into the Galactic Friends Squad(real name to be determined).

Here the people of distant worlds would come together to learn balance with other cultures, and the students are choosen at random.

Thinking back, that's probably were all the problems started.

godgirl and gnomeboy stand on the platform, waiting for their bags.

gnomeboy: are you nervous, I"M nervous.
Heehee. smile big, frown.

Godgirl: I am all knowing. a primal elemental construct which knows no boundries.

gnomeboy: oh. (hand on back of head)

Godgirl*looks at him briefly)
I like your jacket.(looks the other way).

Gnome boy smiles, god girl gets her bags and he gets his and runs after her, but staopandgo trips him.

stopandgo: hahee. They teach you to walk on your planet or is this a first in your primitive evolution.(she walks on).

cowboy trips over gnome, stopand go hears it and turns. she sees bushido man-on-man art as they collide. and her hearts bumps and she blushes and starts to breathe hard.

cowboy: sorry
gnomeboy: its okay I was in the way.
cowboy: Its not your fault.
gnomeboy: yer darn right it wasn't my fault big legs!
cowboy:...
stopand go:...
gnome:(embarassed) i'm sorry I just cant do this with a straight face. You seem like a nice guy. it was just a joke I'm sorry my names...
cowboy:Name
stopandgo: whispers under breath(name and name. ba-dump)

cowboy: you're adorable. want some help with those bags?
gnome: hehe sure could use some.

they get all the bags ready and stompgak knocks into them. he is running away from una, he's carring her underwaers and they are dropping everywhere.

stomp: outta my way runts.

una: stop you pervert!

stopand go closeslines him. then intimidates him.

stopandgo: move it creep, or ill help her tear you apart.

stomp: eekk! (he runs)

una:(screeches to a stop after seeing stopand go)(looks her over)Master says you are an acceptable candidante. I have been instructed to introduce myself.

stopandgo:Hello I'm stopanmdgo.
Una:I am Una. Model 1000178
stopandgo: so you're being piloted by someone else, some other creature?
una: semi-correct. I am autonomous. I move and speak anbd feel. Master sees and feels this also. I am a surrogute Life model.

Stopandgo: so you can help me with my bags?
una: buzzes for a second: acceptable. Master wishes it.
(she helps with their bags.)

walking to dorms.

Narration: all the potential galactic clients live in a mega building. There, dormatory living prevails. It is structured and every candidate is screened and matched with an appropriate roomate. this system is foolproff and has three redundant failsafes.

(*computer fizzes out and all the failsafes are knocked over by a technician, then skulltrix's spider l;eraves the burning computer and hops out the window, down the side of the building and we pan in to see the spider hide behind a bush and see gnomeboy and cowboy enter their names into the computer to see where they go to live.)

Cowboy: well I guess wed both better see where we live before wqe actually check in.

gnomeboy: you know i haven't had grilled grubs in almost a decade!(sees a vendor on the corner).
cowboy: a decade, you look eight.
Gnome: I'll have you know I'm twenty solars of age my friend.
Cow: wow so youre actually older than me!?
gnome: cmon youngster lets get some grubs.
cow: is dragged along. : ew.

spider bot scrambles into the keys and fiddles with the wires. veiwport pans out from a screen that's red looking at some wires being vut.

Gruesome Castle: lair of skultrix

skull: finally, I will crumble the galactic frineds with one sure blow.

narration: this is the sorcerer demon, skultrix, sultan of smarmy, duke of doom and flunkie of the galactic test three times over.

dinominion: HH is such a dream. I can't wait till you topple the galactic government and we can go back.

skull: fool, I am toppling the government to weild power.(under breath) and becasue HH is a great place to live.
If I can get one of them to leave due to bad roomates I can slip in unoticed.

Dino: genius!

skull: yes, and the best part is that no one in the galactic friends will ever suspect.

camera pans out to bird drone hovering near window.

narration: galactic securities headquarters.
absentminded desk clerk looking at comic =book

clerk's boss: has he done anything yet?
clerk, still looking at comic: nawp. he's due to blow himself up near lunch though.
blam! offscreen.

both look at the screen

clerk: ooo, he's early today.

back at the computer:

stopandgo types in her number

her and a random boy pop up. then it statics to una when she turns her head back from gnmeboy yelling how great the grubs are.

(random boy is a maschist and loves stopand go eventually)

stopand go tells una the good news.

a tiny flag comes out of her head and she un-enthusiastically says. yay when a small puff of confetti spurts from the same spot.

una: master says he is excited to move in.
he is so excited he is clapping.
(pods on the sides of una's head open and they are speakers. fap fap is the onomonipiea)

stopand go: um, he's not clapping..(put off by this)
una: no, he's not clapping.

stopandgo: that sick bastard. did he tell you to use your sapeakers?
una: he did.
stopand go: i don't suppose theres a way to stop him?
Una: i do as master commands.
(una dings and powers down for a second.)
(her head snaps up.)
Una: i am so sorry. he's an asshole.
Stopand go: whao! can you even say that?
Una: I have learned to shut my feed off for several minutes at a time. it's the only time I get any privacy.(turns head away).

Stopandgo: it must be rough being told what to do, especially if youre not into it, droid or not.
(pity)
I dont usually do this but, if there a way I can help, just let me know.
Una: why are you so nice, most girls just run when master gets pervy.
Stopandgo: oh Im alot more complicated than some people...

(una powers down and up again.)
una: master is pleased the feed has been restored, excuse me while I good to matenence to have my wiring checked. I shall see you this evening. goodbye,."(longing look as she leaves)

stopand go: crap, she left all her baggage!(huge pile of metal crates and pistons and such)

cowboy and gnome approach
stopandgo:get away from me you dweebs!

cowboy;' well thats uncalled for.
(stopandgo is struggling with crate)
gnomeboy: you need some help.

she blushes terribly.
stopandgo: no im fine.(she says, panting)

all of a sudden she is lifetd off the ground. her hands still on the crate as an orc maid lifts the crate with tow finger's.

orc: i will help. it's my lob.

gnome boy smiles.
gnomeboy thoughts: wow, you'd think being that large she'd have a gruff voice but it's like light dancing on a night-filled summer pond.

heatherstopandgo drops down and sees her package. orc blushes. lifts another crate with everything else on top and says:
orc: this way miss(but she turns her head for just a moment and sees the gnome eyeing her. gnome gets nervouse and runs blindly in pole. she giggles and trips over godgirl.) everything falls out of the crates and wires and big machines are about to pummel everyone when gravity reverses and her powers put all the wires back into the box.)

godgirl: be more careful. (and walks away.)

gnomeand cowboy get to apartment next to one another.

gnome: cool. I'm going to unpack.
see you at dinner.
I'll bet my roomie is cool. the computer had to put me together with somebody decent. someone who matches me.

gnome goes into room and sees stompgak
his nest is a pile of panties.

stomp: stay away from my side of the room.

the flies fill the air.

stopand go and una both enter the ir room and the orc has finished setting up the mech stuff.

orc: (sees heather's candy wrapped hitr the garbage can lid and slide onto the floor)
please would you be so kind as to keep the floors clea...

gnome sees her across the breezeway.

she blushes and gets red

orc: i mean, IF YOU MESS UP THIS ROOM ILL TEAR YOUR SPINE OUT(Orc has to clean until she can test again.)

she stops when she realized what she did and sees a scared look on gnome face. she flees.

she runs into shy dragon and the shybluedragon's clothes fly everywhere. stompgak snap a pair of panties but when he gets back to his nest they are shapped like enourmous dong. her throws themout of the apartment and at first they fall but then they float like a parachute.

shy dragon lugs ripped bag full of clothes into an empty room. she sits on the floor and looks at the wall. next to her, the day changes to night.

yellowgnome: hey they didnt ever put furniture here?
dragon looks down
he is small, gremlin like.

dragon: i guess not.
yellowgnome: well no worries, I'll be back in a flash.(thenhe moves with super speed and brings back beds and food)

dragon: where di you get those?
yellow gnome: nopwhere.
(behind his two peopl are yelling"what the fuck was that""the beds aregone.")

gnomeyellow: lets tell stories. where are you from?

dragon blushes:Zanxaxzar. ocean planet. we live in golden coral reefs. sometimes we fly, but only ones with wings.

gnomeyellow: I'm from Trew 47. We invented Flargzarts!(proud)

dargon: (???)
gnomeyellow: sigh. maybe therey havent reached your planet yet. they're delicious.
well anyways I'm glad they stuck me with a lady and not...

(he notices her pulsating bulge)
dragon: oh no. not now.
it begins to rise up and shake.

stompgak and nest of panties that get cleaned by orc, gnome is roomate. orc and stomp hate each other. orc is war goddess she exclaims and leaves.

cowboy and gnomeboy eat lunch.
gnomeyellow: hey can I sit with you guys.
cowboy: sure.
yellow gnome: I'm afraid I'm a little confused. do they put species of the same, well sex together here.

he recounts how the blue dragon came all over him.
she got really horned up and opened herself wide begging for me.
he stared in surprise and terror.

yellowgnome: on the one hand, she's really nice,on the other, she has a massive hardon that has a mind of it's own and if she doesnt take care of it then it explodes on it's own.

they all think together.

they show up with exxxxxtra large condoms and a box of chocolates.

we heard you had a rough night. we just wanted to make sure you felt better and welcome.

she hugs them.

cowboy: something's poking me(looks down in surprise.)

accidental bathrrom sex between orc and centaur.(ala bathroom"make some room for me.")

gnome: impress big brother barbarian by getting strong and finding love with orc, who can onlky be with someone who beats her in combat.

Una: strict 'parental unit". dysfunctional family, father figure 'literally ' lives through her vicariously. Seeking solace and privacy and a quiet moment with an empathetic friend.

stompgak: pushes everyone away becasue of abandonment issues.
no social skills because family left him alone often, favoring the other spawn.

Orc: living up to tribe standards and being the 'large freak' of the tribe , in more ways than one.(all orcs on her plant are 5' even and small-hermaphrodites.

goddess: was always told she was this great world-eater but secretly doesn't know herself or what she wants.

Heather: sees power in control, and weakness in those that would be controlled. If she doesnt do it then it will be done wrong. Last time it was done wrong somethng she really was passionate about was wiped away forever.

blue dragon: introverted and shy.
passionate about creatures she can conjure with magicks. seeks to make her voice heard and defend all animals.
seking the Flocked Narrfulkarg, an endangered species that has beautiful feathers. Their planet is gone amd it is rumored they went here and it would get her a place in the Universal Conservationists.(sexually frustrated)

Barbarian: likes elf princess but heather sees status with barbarian prince, likes em mean. Barbarian is embarassed that he wants nothing more than to read, not go into the family business.

elf princess: soft spoken. likes to paint. has to be proper all the time because of 'tradition'. has goth parents and leaves her hair natural/blonde. (KAT from S.ART)

purple hair girl: is shy and oversexed. likes hentai and sees sex as extremely casual. peacemaker, wants everyone to get along and plays therapist often. plainspoken about everything (over sexed rich girl from Sadukai Yakuindomo).

skulltrix: he was the dorky kid who was really naieve. Dominastria the IV, took advantage of his intellect to 'do her homework' making monsters and robots for her crusade against the universe. That's what got him kicked out, he was just trying to fit in. still a dorky virgin who loves chess. sells miniatures on Betsy.com(etsy).PATmeON(patreon)(podcast)

Japanese CEO- classic overworked lush. works hard all day, drinks away lonely sorrows at night. wakes up in awful situations. bumbling because she slept with one guy who is an idiot but it could get her fired as she really likes the job because of a character she likes that works there, the perfect pretty boy supermodel Fabio desk clerk. so she sends the inept mailroom boy to do her dirty work while she constantly plays catch-up and is always caught just short of her bullshit. she is always trying to maintain her front.

punk goth demon: sassy, headstrong, confident. knows what she wants.(red succcubus from 'Dungeon/EXAM' comic)

------: is basically C3PO./smart squirrels(S.ART)(makes little robots/babies/DENZIENS/frsh-look-at-world)('babies-robos' make a hive mind which slowly rises to power and even Skulltrix has to styep in and join forces with everybody to help.)

------: is basically cute robot/R2D2.(the 'jay and silent bob', the one who deus ex machina's everything.)

bittersweet candy bowl drama
the Order of the Stick stories
Sequential Art strips/strung-together-plots/situational-drama

So, I developed a lecture on how three-act story structure is present in stories no longer than 4 pages, including daily comic strips.

In just three to four comic panels, you can utilize three-act structure to tell a story. If there’s conflict and a character reacting to that conflict then you’ve got a story and that can easily fit within three or four comic panels.

Here’s the breakdown I used to discuss three-act story structure in the lecture:

Act 1 is the “Beginning”, where information is setup to provide CONTEXT for the story.

Act 2 is the “Middle”, where characters attempt to achieve GOALS and encounter CONFLICT.

Act 3 is the “End”, where there is a RESOLUTION to the CONFLICT and our character’s character is revealed.

Panel 1 (yellow) is Act 1. It provides the CONTEXT for the strip, answering the 5W’s: Where, When, Who, What and Why.

In this example (Calvin & Hobbes by Bill Watterson), the CONTEXT (5W’s) for the strip is:

Where are we? A white space. We may be inside or we may be outside, it doesn’t matter. The rest of the strip should make sense without that information. (If it doesn’t make sense, then Bill should have clarified).
When are we? Day or night is not specified, so it shouldn’t matter for the rest of the strip to make sense. (But it is set post-1932. How do we know that? The character is playing Superman, who was created in 1932.)
Who is involved? A kid. We know his name is Calvin from the title of the strip, Calvin & Hobbes, but within the CONTEXT of Panel 1, it doesn’t matter. All we really need to know is that the character is a kid who plays pretend.
What are they doing (their GOAL)? Playing Superman. And we know that by the use of Superman’s trademark line “Up, up and away!” along with the cape.
& Why are they doing that? Probably because playing Superman is fun.

Now that the CONTEXT has been established, we want to see the character attempt to achieve a GOAL and face CONFLICT in Act 2.

Panel 2 (blue) shows the character trying to achieve their GOAL – the WHAT from Panel 1 put into action. It can also be called the PREMISE of the strip.

Using the same example, Calvin’s GOAL is to play Superman, so in Panel 2 we get to see Calvin doing just that: playing Superman.

But there is no story without a problem. So, there must be CONFLICT. Something (a person, a thing, fate, or a force of nature) must CONFLICT with the character’s GOAL.

This CONFLICT brings the potential DEATH OF THE PREMISE.

In Panel 3 (red), gravity prevents Calvin from flying (CONFLICT). Will this be the DEATH of playing Superman?!

NO! Calvin continues to play Superman despite the reality of his situation, thus revealing something about his character.

Character is revealed through conflict and Panel 4 (green) is where we get to see that.

Panel 4 is the RESOLUTION of the CONFLICT, and that RESOLUTION lets the reader know something about your character.

This is where you get to show how your character behaves or thinks. In a well-written comic strip, it results in something funny or unexpected.

Calvin has every reason to give up pretending to be Superman but he refuses and improvs his way back into play. Why? Because play is more fun than reality (and if you’ve read Calvin & Hobbes, you’ll know just how true that is for Calvin).

Here’s another Calvin & Hobbes example:

Panel 1 [Act 1] – CONTEXT (5W’s):

Where are we? A white space.
When are we? Day or night is not specified, but it is set after those bubble bottles were created and mass-marketed for kids.
Who is involved? Calvin.
What are they doing (their GOAL)? Blowing a bubble.
& Why are they doing that? Blowing bubbles is fun?

Panel 2 [Act 2.1] – GOAL (WHAT in action. The PREMISE): Calvin blows a bubble.

Panel 3 [Act 2.2] – CONFLICT (DEATH OF THE PREMISE): Calvin is stopped in blowing a bubble. Is this the DEATH of blowing bubbles?

Panel 4 [Act 3] – RESOLUTION: Yes. Calvin’s reaction to what happened reveals his character.

THE END!

The best part about Panel 4 is that different characters can provide a totally different outcome or joke from the same PREMISE.

Here’s an example of a Nancy strip by Ernie Bushmiller (notice how Nancy’s reaction to the DEATH OF THE PREMISE provides an entirely different joke):

Panel 1 [Act 1 and 2.1] – CONTEXT (5W’s) & GOAL:

Where are we? Outside a store.
When are we? Daytime.
Who is involved? Nancy.
What are they doing (their GOAL)? Blowing a bubble.
& Why are they doing that? Blowing bubbles is fun?
GOAL (WHAT in action. The PREMISE): Nancy blows a bubble.

Panel 2 [Act 2.2] – CONFLICT (DEATH OF THE PREMISE): Nancy is stopped in blowing a bubble. Is this the DEATH of blowing bubbles?

Panel 3 [Act 3] – RESOLUTION: Yes. Nancy’s reaction to what happened reveals her character.

THE END!

So, when writing your own comic strips, keep this breakdown in mind and use Panel 4 to show the reader what makes your character interesting, funny or unique.

I hope that helps!
