Proof of concept
I had the idea some time ago to do a comic strip that basically transcribed some of my ongoing instant messenger conversations with my friend Matt. I have neither the desire nor the talent to draw a comic strip, so the idea was to create the strip completely on the computer and present it as exactly what it is: a stylized IM conversation.
So… months later and I finally got off my ass and did the thing.
Behold, the “pilot episode” of IM!

This particular episode isn’t exactly a gutbuster, IMHO, but it’s basically a test run to get the templates set up and see if the whole thing was worth doing.
Anyway, have a look, and let us know what you think. If we get a good response, we’ll definitely do more.
Edit: And if you like it, then link to it, tell your friends, tell your enemies, spread the word already!
Update: And now we have a domain name! (Note: it might take some time to propagate, so try again later if it doesn’t work. And yes, we’ve sold out already.)
ROTFLMAO – all I have to say!
snerk!
i hope to see more.
Hell YEAH!!!! That is awesome, Corey! You should get a contract and give that good looking SOB Matt his share of the dirty, dirty lucre!
I digs it. Tons o’ potential. Funny out of the gate
Very cool. Keep ‘em coming!
Gotta say, this looks really good. I think this has some Penny Arcade potential, etc. I think y’all should run with it.
