HAPPY FIRST ANNIVERSARY

AWHOLEYEAROFDERP

THANK YOU EVERYONE THAT WISHED ME A HAPPY ANNIVERSARY~

I started Black Adventures on a whim on /vp/ exactly one year ago. AND THEN ALL THIS HAPPENED.

N first appears in the second episode, which according to my files was made on the 29th, so he’s actually celebrating a bit early, but whatever :’u

ahh I wanna do something special to celebrate….

I WILL TAKE THE TIME TO ANSWER QUESTIONS RELATED TO THE COMIC HERE. No spoilers, though;;

  5. Duckman's avatar Duckman says:

  7. Registeel's avatar Registeel says:

    Congratulations for making it this far, and I hope to see this comic continue for a long time to come as well! :)
    I’m glad you decided to start this comic in the first place, and while I wasn’t around for this comic’s beginnings, I really am a fan of your work. So Happy Anniversary, and once again, congratulations! :D

  8. Bananaman's avatar Bananaman says:

    Wow, happy birthday N, and Happy anniversary BA! I started reading this before summer break and really loved the art and hilarity of this comic, so I became a big fan.
    My question is: do you have a favorite side character? either to draw or overall character?

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      ahhh I have a lot of favorite side characters;;
      In no particular order: Arti, POD, Ingo, and Emmet.
      For a while, Arti was my favorite, which is why Black has a derpy man crush on him.

  9. WZD's avatar WZD says:

    Is Pods x Pods canon? : 3

  10. CrystalDawn~'s avatar CrystalDawn~ says:

  12. AltARIa's avatar AltARIa says:

    YAAAY CONGRATULATIONS ON THE ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY AND GETTING A COMIC FOR IT DONE YAAAY. :D Okay caps lock off.

    N’s drawing is so damn cute. I don’t see what Black was worried about, N doesn’t know anything about sex as per episode 2. :T…Or does he?
    But congratulations again! Thank you for taking the time to make all of these strips filled with awesomeness. You’re awesome~ :D

  13. GameFreakAK's avatar GameFreakAK says:

    YEAY FOR A YEAR! You now what we need now?
    TEA PARYTY~!

  14. Netto Azure's avatar Netto Azure says:

    Congrats on the 1 year anniversary, a friend mentioned something about a
    “Black Adventures” comic and asked me if I read it a few months back. For a few days I kept on telling him, yes I read it; thinking he was referring to Pokemon Special (Adventures) – BW Arc XDDD

    …then he linked me to this. I was hooked after a few episodes in. xP

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      haha yeah, I’ve noticed people making that mistake;;
      Sometimes I think I should’ve given this comic a different name (especially since there’s a porn site with the same name), but now I can’t imagine it with any other name :u

  15. Faye's avatar Faye says:

    Do they always sleep in bed nearly nude? o.o; I don’t even have to ask if it’s together because if it wasn’t N would probably explode.

  16. Genesis's avatar Genesis says:

    I like to think N nervously woke up Black in the middle of the night for this. :3

  17. Praetors's avatar Praetors says:

    Will you be making a forum?

  18. thesilverskull190's avatar thesilverskull190 says:

    since it’s the whole one year an-thing, and you seem to be cmmenting more than usuall, mind answering a question of my own? are you a guy or a girl? if you don’t feel comfortable writing for the public eye, just send it to thesilverskull190@gmail.com , don’t worry, i’m good at keeping secrets ^P*

    please..?

    PLEASE?!?!

    …LET ME KNOW, DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, yelling, please?

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      The answer is out there~
      Use your detective skills, AND THEN DON’T EVER TELL A SOUL.

      Fun fact: people have been posting pics of me online since the Arcadia Mall Tour and that was BACK IN FEBRUARY.

      • thesilverskull190's avatar thesilverskull190 says:

        -_-; you just had to be difficult… CURSE YOU BASICALLY GENDERLESS WEBCOMIC CREATOR!!!! i’m sorry!-please don’t unleash your fury!-i love your work!

        oh and a little side note- THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE! don’t think about it- i probably seem crazy now- I AM- but please to be scared, WE LOVE YOU!!! we’re a harmless person! or if you wish, a male, blind, blue-instead-of-green spiritomb named Sival- which is not my real name- WE LOVE YOU AND YOUR WORK!!!

      • Glaceon's avatar Glaceon says:

        The answer to the gender question is simple. Black’s gender is Missingno.

    • Mina's avatar Mina says:

      I had to deal with this too. And once I actually found out, Black trolled me by putting a false name on the package of my order DX

      also, I’m sworn to secrecy, so have fun searching~

      • well i did some of my own research (buying keychains r win) and I get the same name every time. so I figure I kinda know what Black is…that doesn’t sound creepy at all though…. O.o

  19. Manna's avatar Manna says:

    YAY ANNIVERSARY!
    That gift is adorable N… really, really adorable. o uo

    POD IS BEST. CAN THERE BE MORE POD? PLEAAAASE?
    THERE SHOULD BE A DERP TEA PARTY!

  20. shinxthinx's avatar shinxthinx says:

    do you like emmet or ingo better? youve asked us but i want to know your choice :D

  21. Weezing's avatar Weezing says:

    Is Pod going to be a permanent thing here? I mean, I enjoy a good derp-out like anyone else, but those eyes…

    …they’re reaching into my soul, and touching me in bad places…

  22. ThatRandomGuy's avatar ThatRandomGuy says:

    Will there be more MissingNo mayhem in the future? I feel as if he’s being cast to the side recently. What of MissingNo’s “siblings”, such as LM4 and ‘M..?

  23. Articuno's avatar Articuno says:

    I have to say that your comic has a better plot than the actual Pokemon Anime.

    OK so my questions are this : When you are making your comic, do you start entirely from scratch with a drawing pad or do you scan it in and then ink in a layer over that? Which method breeds success in the long run? And is there any advice you have for a fellow artist?

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      I plan it out on a piece of paper. Each panel is about a square inch and I pretty much just draw floating faces and write dialogue. I don’t scan anything. I find it much quicker to sketch and draw digitally, but making a first draft on paper is convenient because I can see every panel at once and I can work on it even when I’m away from my computer. JUST KEEP DRAWING. PERSISTENCE OUTWEIGHS TALENT. CONNECTIONS OUTWEIGH TALENT. But talent is nice to have, too.

  24. I’ve started reading this two weeks ago.
    …this is my favourite pokemon-related stuff evar now.
    also, DID N CARRY THIS PICTURE IN HIS PANTS THE WHOLE VACATION?!

  25. Glameow's avatar Glameow says:

    I love this comic so much :3
    I say N hosts a huge tea party with everyone and the dress code is maid suits :D

  26. Jerome's avatar Jerome says:

    Why don’t the people have toes?

  27. Raichu's avatar Raichu says:

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BLACK ADVENTURES~ I haven’t been here since the beginning, but hey.

    And I don’t have any question because I know it’ll be answered eventually. Or not.

    Oh, and N’s drawing skills amaze me.

  28. eatmeingo's avatar eatmeingo says:

    Sob I think you stopped answering but I just wanted to say…
    Because of this comic, I got back into the Pokémon fandom and it has been the most uplifting wonderful thing in my life for almost a year now. I’ve met all my new best friends with it and rekindled friendships with old ones by talking about it again. It really really means a lot to me and I’m ready to stick with you to the very end because this comic is wonderful and the feeling means the world to me. Thank you so much.

    Also, dem Subway Masters. Any chance of a reappearance? Totally wanted them on the beach.

  32. Kaky's avatar Kaky says:

    yay, you’ve hosted a web comic that’s been on for a holw year! Now you can brag about it to your not as talented (by comparison to yourself, of course) friends!. ;u;

    I also see you’re going to answer some questions, here’s my question(s)

    Will Nilbert Ever appear in the comic?

    Will MissingNo.’s past be revealed?

    Will the Musharna (?) or maybe some other outside force that made Black’s dream a reality (The dream that gave him N and Missingno.) Be raveled?

  33. NoonSkull's avatar NoonSkull says:

    Wow, one year of **Large arm motions** THIS?! Congrats! I mean, I’m jealous I can’t come up with something half as amazing as what you have created right here. Whatever you’re on, tell me, WHERE CAN I GET SOME?! XD
    P.S I know that I’m not the only one to say this, but, LOVING THE BANNER.

  34. Myshka's avatar Myshka says:

    Blaaaaack. Since you seem to have the comic relatively planned out, how long do you think it’ll last? I mean, time-wise. I’m just curious as to how much of it is left. Maybe that’s a bad question. XD

    I LOVE YOU MORE THAN EVERYTHING.

  35. Emerald-Eyes's avatar Emerald-Eyes says:

    Happy first anniversary!!!
    I’ve got a question about this comic.
    Since you’ve managed to get through 5 gyms in one year, Black will probably already have completed the pokemon leage some time next year.
    Do you plan to continue this heartwarming adventure afterwards or to make a sequel/prequel/new show set in another pokemon region afterwards?
    ( If the possible future of Black Adventures is supposed to be a secret, I hereby apologise for asking you this queistion )
    Oh, and best wishes from Germany!!!

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      When I first planned this out a year ago, I though I would have it done by January 2012, but now at the pace I’m going, and how long some episodes are getting, it’ll probably be done in the summer 2012;;

      Since there’ll still be a lot of New York to explore, and maybe a couple questions to be answered, a sequel is possible.

      Yay to German fans! You guys are always buying Ingo/Emmet keychains lol

  36. Ilishtor's avatar Ilishtor says:

    This is just another post by another nameless guy out of the milions on the internet, so take it for what it is: proof that exists yet another person on this wide wide world that appreciates this comic, congratulates with you for the anniversary and hopes you can go on enjoying and drawing this marvellous story.

  37. Justice's avatar Justice says:

    Happy birthday Black Adventures ;_;

    I remember finding a random panel of this comic and then frantically searching google for the actual comic. Oh the interesting things I found… I love this. I cannot wait for more >.<

  38. Ella's avatar Ella says:

    I so happy Black adventues had made it this far! It’s funny and random and crazy and I wish it would never end!

  39. jessie's avatar jessie says:

    Where did u get the idea for all this? I have fallen in love with this comic!!!

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      Well, the first two episodes were just me drawing what a bunch of anons wanted. And then I took over and started drawing things I like while trying to make a more coherent story. That’s about it :u

  40. MrMissMrs Random's avatar MrMissMrs Random says:

    HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!! :D *gets the Chip and Dale dancers and the sparkling cider* Oh yeah~

    I love this comic a lot, and hope there’s plenty more laughs and ‘awwhs’ and ‘HNNNGGG”s to come!

  41. ycart's avatar ycart says:

    Man, it’s so weird to think that it was a whole year ago that I saw that thread that created the first episode. I’m so happy I did, though. I even lost track of it until episode five and then came back to it… /shot.

    THAT POD BANNER IS DELICIOUS. I WANT TO POKE HIS NIPPLES. I BET HE’D MAKE A SQUEAKY TOY SOUND.

    Aaah, cute~! Haa, POD!!!
    HAPPY (…late^_^;) ANNIVERSARY~!!!
    Uhhm, I guess if you’re still answering questions, mine would be if there was something in particular that inspired Black Adventures, or if it was just one big collage of, pretty much, everything awesome and… Uh, some-more-awesome?!!! ><;

  44. Deinosaur's avatar Deinosaur says:

    Happy Anniversery!
    I love your comic, and I commend you for keeping it going for a whole year.
    I have two questions.
    1: Will Black, Cheren, Bell, White, etc. ever realize that N can legally buy alchohol? And if so, will there be hilarious results?
    2: After completeing Black Adventures, are you planning or thinking about doing another comic about a different pokemon game? If so, I recommend Heartgold/Soulsilver.
    Thank you for a year of entertaining updates!

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      1. Well, Black knows. And he’s not too worried about N trying things like that.
      2. A sequel for Black Adventures is a possibility, but I don’t intend to do another pokemon-related comic. I kinda wanna do original stuff eventually :x

      • Deinosaur's avatar Deinosaur says:

        Seeing some original stuff will be very interesting indeed. I’d say “I can’t wait!” but that’d mean I’m ready to stop seeing more of N and Black which I’m totally not.

    Happy anniversary!! It´s only been a couple of months since I started reading, but I´m already in love with it, even if I´m not usually a fan of BL or stories insinuating that xD I like how you manage your story, how your art even though it´s simple works perfectly, and the humor and references you use. Thank you very much for such a great job!

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      I’ve noticed a lot of fans have said they’re not fans of BL, but still can’t stop reading this :v
      Maybe because, as gay as this comic is, it’s more of a comedy adventure? lol I dunno

    I have an art request, and I figure now is a good time to ask. Could you draw a tea party scene with all of the Legendary Commenters on Black Adventures? It would also be a good header-image for the Unrelated section.

    Or is even a yes or no answer too spoilery?

  75. jello's avatar jello says:

    by god this is so adorable.
    I’m another one of those lurkers who hardly comment, so I’ll say now I really love the new sides you’ve given to the original Pokemon characters as well as how regularly you update even though you’re handling projects for school as well! And of course the adorable art and facial expressions your characters have :T
    Happy Anniversary!

  76. Runa's avatar Runa says:

    So, I have a question?

    ._. Um, just a little thing, but….any chance of an on-site archive? Because you do upload in big chucks and some people do miss out between updates while still in that episode, never mind that digging through the episodes just to find, say, the Christmas panel is a tedious hassle…um….

    *doe eyes* Links to the start of the episodes aren’t enough. They’re big episodes.

      I tried out the archive widget on this site, and it’s pretty useless :’u
      It only shows one page at a time; the only difference is posts are grouped by month instead of episode;;
      I can set it so more comic strips show on one page, but that would just look awkwardly long/take a long time to load.
      Unless I’m missing something and there’s actually a good way to show an archive on this site, the answer is no;;

      • Runa's avatar Runa says:

        Well, I was thinking more text links on a page, ultimately; a lot of comic galleries use text links over graphic links, especially if the pages are numerous at that point in time. Like, simply:

        Episode 1
        -Page 1
        -Page 2
        -Page Samophlange

        as an example. Just something that would get readers to the middle of a chapter, somewhere. *feels uncomfortable for asking, but does believe an archive of some kind would be an asset to the site itself*

      • Black's avatar Black says:

        that would be helpful, but it’d take a while :’u

    Wow. Now Black Adventures is a year old. Man, that´s damn long.
    And really, I LOVE this comic. It’s so fucking funny.

    Keep on going like this, Black! ^^

    By the way: Happy Anniversary! :D

    Happy Anniversary! I’m far from a fan-girl (especially seeing as I’m a boy… XP), but I really love your work! It’s hilarious and has a really good story!

    I’m actually working on a Pokemon Black Version comic myself. It’s a bit more personal and appealing to the gaming aspect, so it’s probably not gonna be nearly as good as yours. As of right now, I don’t have a scanner or a reliable internet source, but if I ever do get it up and running I’d really like to know if you want to check it out.

    Any way, keep doin’ what you do! ;)

    Adding my two cents, again. Congrats on the one year! :D I can’t wait to see how this thing will end.

    Also I used my stalking skills to find YOUR TRUE GENDER!! and, don’t worry, your secret’s safe with me.

    Artist Black actually HAS no gender, guys. Everyone go home :V

  93. Derpoxys's avatar Derpoxys says:

    Question, how long is the pod banner staying? Also Will more bonus be made?

    • Black's avatar Black says:

      til I feel like changing it back :u

      I did like making bonus episodes, but they end up taking most of a day, so I won’t have time for that any time soon;;

  96. C2's avatar C2 says:

    Congrats on making it to a year. This has to be the most amusing comic I’ve read in a while.
    I love their expressions the most, especially Black’s
    Also just thought you should know you have fans from the Caribbean too ^_^ Keep it up!

  97. Oos's avatar Oos says:

    Will there be more Pod in the comic? :D Or for that matter the other Striaton triplets but MOSTLY POD :Y

  98. fingerbandaid's avatar fingerbandaid says:

    Will Black’s masculinity level continue to drop every chapter? It’s sad to see his only chance to be with White getting farther and farther away…

  99. Katie's avatar Katie says:

    Let me just say that I have been IN LOVE with this comic ever since I saw a panel on memebase. You are a fantastic writer and an extremely talented artist in your own right. Now I know that it seems like a pretty derpy question at this point, but I just feel the need to confirm… is N actually gay? I’m not gonna ask about Black cause that would be a spoiler. :3
