Lite Bites Review of LUGNOR SERIES, pt 1/2

Genejoke on Sept. 14, 2011

Killing two space birds with one space rock this time. We reviewed two comics, Tales of Lugnor and Lugnor Riders, both by beloved Duck artist and epic cheesemeister Jerrie. They're both pretty much by-the-numbers space westerns, but with the distinction of being loaded to the brim with gratuitous fanservice, even beyond the norm. Both are set in the fictional Lugnor Republic, and follow similar enough themes that it's questionable why the author made them into two different comics instead of focusing on just one series.

In the reviewer's seats this time around are Dan from Genejoke's Malefic, Sparkle from ShastaB24's Trans Dimensional Trans Superheroes, and Carmen from El Cid's Death P*rn.

Lugnor 1 and 2 aren't doing so well with some of the reviewers, it seems. Will there be a light at the end of this tunnel? Tune in tomorrow for the second part of our review and find out!

don't know much about the character but El cid felt it was a good reference how a buff chick can be drawn sexy.

Note that my contribution (from Sparkle's comments) are from only reading Tales of Lugnor. I never got around to Lugnor Riders because I barely had time for the other. And dang, now I really need to get Trans Dimensional Trans Superheroes going. Things are difficult when you have to rely on getting other people to do art (when the reviews get to Comfortably Numb, you'll see why I should not do art on a comic).

Like most people said, lugnor has it's flaws, but also has that an it factor... Not quite sure what. I actually follow the comics. And have even done fan art

the nudity wasn't a problem, hell it was me and el cid reviewing... nudity REALLY not an issue. sure it will put some people off, but it will draw more in... or would if the women were drawn sexy. Jerrie's art does some things right but falls down on some of the most crucial aspects. It's a shame but if he can fix those things think how much better his comics could be.

(and it doesn't hurt that there is a lot of nudity)(sure the gals are drawn the way Jerrie likes them - but hey, I can translate them in my imagination to my own preferences)

I like and read both comics. Jerrie is certainly putting forth the effort. The artwork has improved greatly over the course of the comics. So have things like the lettering, etc. Still some way to go? - Sure. But these comics are just fun to read. And they look like they are fun to draw.

Ouch. Now you know why I try not to submit my stuff to reviewers. 5 to the Nth power.

The main thing we hope to achieve is to get you to improve and perhaps give you an idea of how to improve it.

This was a tricky review to do, at least for me, because I actually do read both of these comics, and enjoy them despite their flaws. But from a critical standpoint, I couldn't give 'em a pass. (and keep in mind, some of the surliness comes from the characters!)

oh well...thanks for taking the time to review the comic.(its real cool Carmen was one of the reviewers!thanks!) maybe as the comic progresses you will like it!(I work hard at improving the art)
