Previously, On the ARTWORK Topic thread...
I posted these guys:
And Sin Ogaris stated - "MAKE A COMIC!"... and thus, this topic was born.
Sure, I can make up my own plot to a comic easily, but I thought it would be fun to see what others would think up...
There are no proper rules, simply make up a short story that could possibly fit into about 9 comic frames or so. The story can be completely pointless and disturbing... although not too disturbing... 
Go wild with your ideas, although the story has to have at least 2 of these characters in it -
(From Left - Right in the picture )
- Mothman
- Dano-man
- Alec
- Dano-man Jnr.
- God
- Untitled #1
- and Burkoster the 3rd
Have fun. 
If anyone has any queries with anything that they are unsure about, please state them so I don't make a fool of myself... because this is my first Topic I've ever started.

Burkoster the 3rd and Mothman were enjoying their home grown chardonnay in the attic of Mothman's mother's place.
"Hmm, I do say, this is some fine chardonnay, Mothman", a bedazzled Burkoster the 3rd embellished.
"Indeed, my fine man, indeed", replied Mothman with a hint of serendipity.
"Do I sense a hint of serendipity?", questions Burkoster the 3rd.
"Why, yes. I think that is correct to assume", barkles Mothman.
"No, I only presumed", a stern Burkoster the 3rd rebuttled.
The two stare blankly at each other...
This stare continued to the morning, when suddenly, a loud screech is heard from downstairs.
"Mothman, it's time for my sponge bath!", shouted Mothman's mother.
THE END

Do these guys have personalities/powers? Or can we just make them up

Yeah, for sure they have personalities... but no powers.
These guys are just a figment of my imagination.
At the moment I'm planning with a friend a web comic series based on these characters. It's called Dano-man (the title of the series and the main character).
Dano-man is a down to earth kinda guy and a realist. Although in each episode of comic strips he has a different house, wife and job for no apparent reason and different varieties of characters come and go as they please.
Moth-man is Dano-man's best friend and is VERY annoying. He's an energetic speaker and can be quite immoral. He tends to rip things up that are given to him.
Dano-man Jnr. is Dano-man's son (mother unspecified). He's loud and speaks in a high pitched voice and randomly screams and points and things that pass by.
Burkoster the 3rd is an arrogant asshole who has no apparent role the series but just seems to enjoy demoralising people's efforts.
Untitled #1 is a mute, who follows everyone around for no reason and occasionally appears in the background of some comic frames.
And Alec is another one of Dano-man's friends who speaks in the third-person about deep and meaningful topics about others' mentality. He's opinionated and always has the proper answer to resolve certain situation, although people tend to ignore him.
I hope that answers your question Nietzsche.
Oh, and ?oe?oe... I'm sorry I didn't specify their personalities before hand, but I'm still drawing up yours because I thought it was a fun concept. ^__^

Very nice, Gerokeid. I could come up with a few more scenarios, maybe with their proper personalities.

"I've got the aardvark!" squeals Dano Man Jr leading the animal via a leash.
"Why?" an apathetic Burkoster states without looking up from his paper.
"Dad said he wanted "another aardvark" for mum's birthday. EEEEEE, it's eating ants!"
Right, ok then, have fun, just watch where it goes sticking its tongue."
Dano-man comes in.
"How'd you go, son?" he asks of his offspring.
"I got the aardvark!" is the giddy reply.
"Aardvark, I don't think I need an aardvark... oh, you silly child, I asked you to get your Uncle Arthur!"
"Looks like you dropped the kid one too many times, Dano Man" pipes Burkoster still glued to his newspaper.
Dano man stares at his son, Dano Man Jr. stares at the aardvark, Burkoster continues reading his paper. Eventually Alec pops his head in to proclaim, "Do you ever wonder why, seeing as Dano Man Jr is merely a child version of Dano Man, he isn't simply called Dano Boy?"
*beat*
"Hey, an aardvark."
Everyone looks at the aardvark.
The End.

Gerokeid should make an online webcomic. Maybe Palgn-ers can provide the storyline while you can do the drawings. And then upload it on an XKCD-esque site. That would be pretty cool, eh?

Hehehe, thanks guys for participating in this. It's awesome!
Buttmouth, thanks for liking my addition to Aristocratic Mothman.
?oe?oe, thank you V much for approving my variation to your scenario. I'd love it if you did create more cuz I really enjoyed drawing up yours.
Sin Ogaris, I've already gotten my pencil to paper for yours.
And 3mt, XKCD has been my motivation and inspiration for Dano-man. and thanks for thinking that it's all webcomic-worthy.
By the way, when I posted the personalities of the characters I forgot to add God. God wears a trench coat and a bucket on his head with a smiley face imprinted into it. He's the opposite of Alec, not as where Alec is Satan or anything like that, but in the way where he seems to have the incorrect answer to resolving situations and everyone DOES seem to listen to him...
Here's an overview of God's personality in visual format:

*A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away*
*shot of Mothman fighting God with dual lightsabers*
Mothman: I do say, you're not bad at this"
God: "Indeed" *as he singes one of Mothman's antennas
Mothman: "You fool! Now I am forced to use my final act of power - the mono-mega-melancholic-monolithic beam of mass destruction!"
*Mothman's eyes glow as his antennas start beaming waves*
*God cowers in the corner*
Mothman: *evil maniac laugh*
God: "w-w-ait! Because I..I am your father!"
Mothman: No!
God: Tsk, tsk, children nowadays are SO disrespectful to their parents!
Mothman: *cries* I'm sorry!
God: *Smacks Mothman on the butt

Dano-man is working at the local gas station, filling up cars, when Dano-man Jnr. pulls up in a lamborghini.
"Fill 'er up!", excretes Dano-man Jnr while slapping the outside of the car door.
"Aren't you a little young to be driving?", questions Dano-man in a slight sombre way.
"This baby accepts all ages, wheeeee!", an excited Dano-man Jnr replied.
"Well, this pump doesn't accept minors", a witty Dano-man explains.
"That's not what mum said!", quickly shouts Dano-man Jnr.
An enraged Dano-man Jnr. speeds off, only to run out of gas a few metres away. [Untitled #1 is seen across the road]
He runs back past his father and grabs a bike from the other side and rides towards him, only for the front tyre to burst right in front of his father.
"... pump 'er up?", a sly Dano-man Jnr babbles.
THE END

Hey guys. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry I've been taking a while to complete these comics. It's just that I've been swamped with school work lately. 
So I'd just like to apologise for the delay, but I should update this post in the next 3 days with Sin Ogaris' comic.
UPDATE: Make that another week until after my software assignment has been completed and handed in. Sorry.
