What does D4K mean?
– D4K stands for Dribble for Kids, which is the official homepage of the
comic strip of the same name. D4K Studios then means Dribble For Kids
Studios. 2. What the Heck is Dribble for Kids On-line? Homepage for D4K Studios and the comic strip Dribble For Kids, and anything else I wanna post on here. Yeah,
so I wanna post what I wanna post! So what? I don't see you name on
the deed, buddy. 3.
I see you mention Version 3.0 ... What does Version 3.0 mean?
Well, 3 is after 2, which is after 1. Of course, It means the 3rd
layout of the website. 4.
So what does your site feature exactly?
Um, See 2. Comic Strip and whatever I want it to. 5.
So when will the site be completely up?
With the movie being edited, trying to worry about real life
situations, AND get a webcomic out at least once a week... all I can say
is... Rhome wasn't built in a day. And neither was my spell checker
for my pc. I at least tried to
get every link on the left working with something on that page. 6.
I heard you wrote a screenplay called TMNT 4 (Ninja Turtles 4) and Under the
Table and Dreaming. When will
these be up on the website?
Under
the Table and Dreaming? Sure. Maybe. TMNT 4? Prolly not. 7.
Hey, what kind of name is Dribble for Kids, anyway? Where did you get that
Title From? Okay,
long story but here we go: In the movie The Hudsucker Proxy by the
Cohen Brothers, there is a phrase where Norville Barnes goes "You know,
it's for kids." When I wrote this tv-like skit thing for the TMNT-L
(the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mailing List) venting my frustrations
about this one TMNT fan, it got such a warm reception, I began to write
more, and which the article was called "More Dribble for Kids. Yeah,
you know... for kids." Well the title was shortened down to
"Dribble for Kids." and wha-la. The reason why the
word Dribble was added was not only to add a sense of creativity that I
didn't steal the "For Kids" part from anything, I wanted to add
something that you can tell, came from me, so what usually comes out
of my mouth? (At times,) Pure, pointless un-adulterated ramblish
dribble. Thus... Dribble for Kids... was born.
8.
What happened to the Tao of Nick? Er wait, what IS the Tao of Nick?! The
tao of Nick is a joke which began, if it was a joke even, more of an idea,
thought up while me and my friend were browsing thru DVDs like we usually
did at Media Play. There is a
movie called The Tao of Steve and we would make wise-cracks about the movie
or our own Tao’s. When I did
the site for angelfire, I like quotes I thought quotes that best explain me
would be cool, so I did a Tao of Nick quote generator. For those who
been with the site since's it's inception on angelfire, the Tao of Nick is a
quote generator that for the time being, has retired until I have a better
place for it.
9.
What do you do for a living? Heh.
Wouldn't YOU like to know. But I work technically basic 9am to
4 pm jobs. Let's leave it at that. If you used to follow my blogger,
MORE Dribble For Kids, then you'd know.
10.
More Dribble For Kids? Um… That was your blogger? Um, what happened
to it? Well for
those who were good friends of mine, or perhaps some of you who just
happened upon the website, noticed a link on the top left which said “More
Dribble”. This was a blogger, which featured my daily ramblings and also,
it was pretty much my journal. Thus,
being a journal, I was very candid, (up there with Kevin Smith’s canny
candid-ness.) about my life, who I had issues with in my life. It was pretty
much what a journal was supposed to be. But… like sometimes happens, you
can burn bridges with people who will stumble upon it, and also will read it
normally and might get mad you even mention their name, even if it’s in a
positive light. So, pretty much, I got tired of all yer bitching.
So I took it down and hid it where it is what it is supposed to be. A
Real Life Journal. 11.
You have an on-line store?
Yes and no. We’re trying some
different stuff which is more hands on approach from me, also 20 bucks for a
shirt from Café’ Press is a bit much.
We’re working on it. If anything we're keeping the posters up
for sale, or trying to find a way to keep them up for sale.
12.
Any items from CaféPress I ordered, I’m having some problems with, or I
can’t seem to order from your store correctly.
Who do I contact? Welpers,
don’t talk to me, unless it deals with actually an order you wished to
have signed by me, OR with the art itself.
But then again, if you aren’t having probs with the art or any
signed info, contact CafePress, by dialing 1-877-809-1659, Monday – Friday
from 7AM to 5PM PST or go to their homepage @ www.cafepress.com .
13. So What Day do you Post Your Comic Strip? - Every Thursday. We go on "summer hiatus" around end of may or so. 13. Wait, you said "we". More than one person works on the comic strip? Yes. We have a writer's staff which makes up the D4K Crew. There is Nitro, Kidsplitner and Romey. Kidsplitner does occasional guest artistry as well. 14.
On your site you used to mention the
phrase, “The Workout Partner”. What
is that, exactly?
The Workout Partner is a low budget indie film I did, starring Jimmy
Dailey, Tami Reynolds and Nathan Haley.
We'll
release more info eventually at some point. 15. When
is the Workout Partner coming to theatres? IS it coming to theatres? No.
Highly Unlikely. Despite such hard work from everyone involved, the
best we can hope for are personal screeners opened to the public. 16.
Will there be a DVD? Will you Sell it on the site? Of course.
That is the main and final destination in case any local theatre
showings don’t work out. And
it will be on sale via this site and maybe even a few others, like Drew
Hanson’s Dirt Sheet, among a few other. 17.
What about Q & A’s? Would you think about doing any of them? What
about the cast and crew? Of COURSE!!! I’m all about everyone asking me
questions cos I like to talk, and specially about the joys (& pains) of
making a movie. I’ve talked
to the cast a bit and they are interested in such fun stuff as well. 18.
Any merchandise from the film on sale? Well, when the movie comes
out, on DVD at least, if anything, we’ll discuss this more then.
19.
Are you working on anything else for your next film project? Yes
I am, actually. The Workout
Partner was great cos it was a stepping stone into the foray of films, so…
I know what to do better this time, what not to do, etc.
But I rather finish the Workout Partner first before jumping into
another project feet first. 20.
You honest like the Ninja Turtles? Just
HOW LAME are you, anyway?!
Oh very. But your mom doesn’t think so. 21. Can I get any of my own ideas into your comic strip? Depends. More on this later, though.
22.
Can I draw a guest strip or guest issue? Depends.
Guest Strips are
always welcomed, Guest Issues though are more serious in nature, so the
latter answer goes with number 21's answer of "It Depends." 23.
Have you ever thought of doing a Dribble for Kids comic book? Technically
it's what we're doing, but online. 24.
Can I link to your website cos I dig it? – Sure thang! I’m all
about linking to me. Spread the love, brotha! 25.
Why is the comic now in full blown color? Why didn’t you start the comic
out in color all the time anyway!? This
whole web comic in general, just proves that I have no life.
But to answer your question, in the beginning I was stubborn and didn’t
have enough time to learn about the photo deluxe program I had on the
computer with the scanner. It
was more of a matter of inking it quickly as well.
Ink it quickly with black and white, and move along.
26.
What’s the deal on posting on Mikey’s TMNT site? You’re a TMNT fan,
but the strip has nothing to really do with the TMNT?! Good
question. Well, Mike was good
enough to host the strip before, as it was maturing from an article on his
site, which DID have to do with the TMNT in it, for the TMNT were brought up
at least twice in each article almost till the end, before it turned into
the strip. Mike has been
gracious to let me continue to post it up on there with the comic, and also
let my opinions of the TMNT fandom out there, and of course I love the msg
boards which I check out every wipsnitch or too. AND... with D4K shaping up
some form of plot and continuity here now days, we'll learn that the TMNT
are a huge part of one of the character's lives. 27.
What's with the Nate character's hatred for Deep Space Nine in the D4K
webcomic? It's
nothing personal mind you. A story point. While I do tend to agree that DS9
is far beneath TNG's superior cast and storylines, (even to much of Jimmy’s
behest, after viewing the show, I still feel the same…) I don't HATE the
show. And I don't hate TNG either. Actually I love TNG and like DS9
too, on my better days. 28.
What's with Wil Wheaton? Do you not like him either?
HECK NO! we LOVE Wil Wheaton. The jokes about The Next Generation cast
and him are not really at him at all. I think Wil's a cool guy while never
meeting or talking to him, and I actually follow his
website everyday or so, and actually am wanting to buy his book,
Dancing Barefoot. Which is something YOU should do!! So DO
IT. 29.
Why DOES Drew wear that damned turtleneck sweatshirt all the time? Why
doesn't he just take it off? Read
the Lord of the Sweaters storyline and find out why.
30.
Your humor in your comic is weird. Um… why?!
My Answer here could go many ways. I
don’t think that it’s weird, I know it’s not normal tho.
I find humor in cartoons like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and a bunch of
other comedies on adult swim on cartoon network.
Pretty much, I am a Futurama, Family Guy, Aqua Teens, Space Ghost-
humor kinda guy. So it can be
perhaps a bit odd. 31.
What’s with the storylines? I can’t keep up. Don’t worry. For those a bit confused, Check the Archives. We have it spelled out all nice for those lagging behind.
32. Who is your daddy, and what does he do? A bit out of line, don't you think?
