    I have this idea but I need your input.

    I have this idea I've been kicking around for a long time, and I finally want to present it to you guys.

    I've always liked making up Superheroes and villains, but I've never had the ambition to write or draw a story or comic. I would really like to do a superhero type story though. So I thought it might be fun to make a community story. It would work a little differently than the CWS. Instead of one story that everyone writes, we would all write our own short stories that would take place in the same city. So there would be all these different takes on the same setting. Like the CWS you could use other people's characters or ideas in your own stories, and like the CWS you would have to be careful not to mess up the continuity of events or have characters act differently than they normally would.

    Participation wouldn't be limited to just stories too. If you had an idea for a hero or villain or part of the city or anything you could add it to the community pool. This would help to flesh out the background and make the whole community more complete.

    The goal would be to create a unique world filled with all our characters and story, and make a unique community experience.

    What I would like to know is if you guys would be interested in participating in this, or if it just a pipe dream of mine. Please post here with your support or comments. Thanks.

      I am interested in participating.
      However, I have to ask if this would be limited to just the staple 60's style heros or are anti-heros or even non-super heros okay?

            This idea intrigues me quite a bit, but I don't know how much I'd contribute since I have a short attention span, and get easily sidetra- hey, a butterfly!

              Gloomy, this would get good for you because you're good at character design. So you wouldn't have to write a story. You could just design a hero and let anyone who wanted to put them in their own stories.

              Marcman, it wouldn't be limited at all. You could make a traditional hero, a new wave hero, a anti-hero, or a story about some guy who lives in the city.

              Stewie, you don't need to get deep. Stay as shallow as you want. It's all up to you. That's part of the appeal of it to me. Some people might write something full of depth and subtext and others would write an action packed adventure. And they would exist side by side.



              Okay, early interest seems good. So here's a good place to start? What would the name of the city be? _________ City. Post your ideas. Once we have a name, I'll post the intro and we can begin in proper.

                If you get the ball rolling, the idea intrigues me enough I'd contemplate giving it a go.

                  I've got a good intro allready written, which sets up the setting and intial conflict. And I've got ideas for a few heroes and villians of my own. Hopefully it will be enough to inspire everyone else. I'd apriciate your partcipation, Mora. You're a good writter, but I was afraid you'd say "We already have one CWS, so no dice!"

                    So its like some zany spinoff idea of those brick wars things way back when?

                    Like how 3 or 4 people all made up the one story with their own comics, but this time have like 15 people doing it?

                    If so Im interested.

                        or we could always temporarily call it Pavilion City.

                            is it gonna have a point on "cool"?

                            or

                            "crazy"?



                            cool-> awsome action with cool design...(little like justice league?)
                            crazy-> just crazy; with comedie? or low?

                              We could have both. Y'know, cool stories and crazy stories coexisting. It works.

                              Also, Criterion City. Or Municiberg.
