Gork is Gone.

As much as I would LOVE to spend my days cartooning and running more webcomic sites, I can't. I am not a full time cartoonist. I have a day job, a wife and kitty, a family, cartoon novel production, comic con preparations, publishing and marketing obligations, a rock n' roll band, and a social life. Unfortunately, I just can't afford to spend the time or money on "Gork Gakk."

The thought of a "comment based webcomic" excited me SO much I wanted to see how it would work. I was very happy with how it all turned out. Thank you for reading, commenting, and building the story. Perhaps one day if I ever become a full time cartoonist, Gork will return to the story the readers help build.

For now you can enjoy all my cartoon work on http://www.mypalmark.com/

GORK #12: Everyone Loves a Parade!

I liked him better as a dog. Gork needs a non-speaking companion like Moof was.
Anonymous said...
I agree, bring back the moof.
Megan said...
Maybe Gulp will have a some kind of story to tell where he met a bunch of other moofs.

If the whip can transform things he could transform the dog back into his uncle.

I think wathever the magic whip touches should become something else. Then Gork can transform all Octos into apple pie and walk away.
Dave said...
What if the magic whip could wrap around air as though it were a conviently-placed substantial support? Beats trying to find tree branches or lamp posts! Gork could use it to swing through the air wherever he wanted. :)
Megan said...
yes! the whip whips onto an invisible tree like they said. then gork finds himself in a place that's all invisibly and he has to figure out what's going on. somehow connected to the monster that changed uncle golp.
ME IS MY NAME said...
Before anything happens he whips it in mid-air and a fedora appears and lands on his head. And he says: 'Great Grapes! I'm indiana Gakk!' Then see other comments.

Saved by the Belch

The moof's cheeks bulge and gork looks at him while being throttle, Suddenly he lets out a mighty belch and the octos (in shock) throw gork into the air. Then something else happens but i'll leave that to someone else.
Anonymous said...
He should pull a magic escape rope from his back pocket, and throw it into the air, with some goofy catchphrase =D!
Amaisa said...
Going along with what Anonymous said (on July 22), Gork should TOTALLY go all Indiana Jones and break out a whip and swing and/or run to safety while the octomonsters run after him (kinda like Indy and the boulder in The Raiders of the Lost Ark...) then have him swing over the Jelly Pool back to the Niffens.

The octo monsters argue about gork with the one in love. Just like real life! HA HA Ha Ha ha heh heh he *cough*...
Sanjay said...
All the other octomonsters fall in love with Gork too.

THE QUESTIONS FOR YOU:
Does Gork escape? How does he escape? What do the Octomonsters do to him? Where did Moofus go?

Okay, Story Builders and Gorkamaniacs. This is Post#8 and I'd like to have a solid ending at post#10. This way I can collect these into an ashcan issue for the conventions. Just keep that in mind when sending comments. We can have some loose ends but we should get Gork back with the Niffens somehow.

I think that when Gork turns around the octo-monster should fall in love with him. :D

gork gives the monster a twinkie and makes the monster happy!!!

THE QUESTIONS FOR YOU:
What's the name of Gork's admirer? What does the Octomonster family do next? Do they accept Gork? Do they need his help? There's also a poll concerning Uncle Golp(the ugly dog.)
