Well, I've got a lot of pages to upload (read: more than 10 from the last 2 years, wooo)
I've been more than a bit lazy, haven't done as much work as I ought to (my entire life) and I got myself locked out of this account because I can't keep my passwords straight to save my life.
I've been working on new sprites, as well, and I'll be updating as frequently as I actually make pages (don't get your hopes up)

New Challenger Approaches is a sprite comic created by Kurt Transem, who can be found at :iconclockworkmonkey411:
This is a comic about nothing. It is filled with random humor, inside jokes, and general stupidity, performed by several friends, and some of my favorite characters from cartoons, video games, and what have you. The sprites are (for the most part) done in Jump Ultimate Stars style.
Blitz/Raikou sprites are made by Blitz/Raikou. He's the one with the goofy blue hair. Also made by Raikou, Jen and Roxy.
Neverstorm sprites are by Neverstorm. He's the one in purple.
SOGESNAKE and Silver Syko/Silva sprites are by SOGESNAKE. Snake's the one that looks like Zoro from One Piece. Silva's the Franky look-alike.
xXDragonXx made the sprites for himself, xXStarXx, Satsujinki, Konacha, and possibly SNaG.
Anything else, unless otherwise noted, are my own edits.

It's been far too long since I updated here. I forgot my password :iconkurtfacepalmplz:
A lot has happened since my last journal. For example, I am now homeless. I'm staying at a shelter in Boone, NC, and while I'm trying to get settled, it's taking some time to find a job.
Still, I have access to the internet, and use of adobe photoshop, so I'm free to continue working on NCA for the time being, and I shall endeavor to do so.
You may also notice I've posted two sketches. Yes, I have decided to at least attempt drawing NCA by hand, though for the most part it will remain a sprite comic. Thus far I'm still learning my cast, and trying to get into the swing of actually drawing these things. It will be a while before I actually start doing backgrounds.

As some of you may know, I'm 20, about to turn 21, I live with my father, and I've failed out of college twice in the last three years.
My father has, in the past year, cut off my internet and begun charging me 200 dollars a month to live in the house I grew up in.
Two months AFTER my father started syphoning off every cent I ever saved, I finally got a job. Working 16 hours and earning 300 dollars a month. That leaves me with enough to NOT STARVE, because my father doesn't feed me.
Now, come January 2010, I'm a hair's width from turning 21, and my father's imposing yet more sh!t on me. Starting today I'm taking several online classes, and my father is paying the WHOPPING SUM of 600 dollars for the semester. If I don't maintain a C Average or above, he'll cut me off completely, kicking me out into the street and essentially ignoring the fact that I even exist for the rest of my undoubtedly short life. On top of this, I have to be working 20 hours minimum, or he'll kick me out and cut me off. As I mentioned, I work 16 hours a week. I've ASKED for more hours, but they don't NEED me working more. Which means I HAVE to find a second job, or I'm homeless. All this time, he's STILL draining me for everything I make, so I can't even save up to move out.
To top all of it off, in April, when I turn 21, he's giving me the boot REGARDLESS of what I'm doing.
This is as much a vent of frustration as it is a cry for help. I literally cannot survive on the street, ESPECIALLY not the streets of Jackson. I have a friend who's willing to put me up after he gets his own place, but the earliest this could happen is in August, and I sincerely doubt I'll last that long. Please, if you're reading this and you have some extra space, I'm desperate and I'm running out of time.

Nightwing and I have been planning something special for a while, and it's something that I'm pretty excited about. We'll hopefully be finished in time for Christmas, and it's my hope that this helps to bring some traffic our way.
I don't want to say too much, but I would like to mention that this is probably the most labor-intensive project I've ever undertaken, and I'm only doing about half the work. Nightwing has written the script and organized the entire thing and I'm just spriting it to fit my interpretation of his plans. Even once my work is done, he'll still have a good bit left to take care of.
Now if you'll excuse me, I've already taken too long of a break, and Nightwing will have my balls in a vice if I'm behind schedule.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and whatever else you may celebrate, do that joyfully.

Presenting: Our first episode of Bad Radio Show Animated, which I lovingly refer to as the Bad Radio Video Show! www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3Tf0R…
This is meant to explain why I've been missing for 6 months, as well as to provide a good holiday giggle. Hope you enjoy

I speak only when necessary, and typically do so with an air of superiority and/or irritation.

6) Do you talk any other way(other language or some kind of slang)
I am fluent in English, and skilled in German and French, with marginal knowledge of numerous other languages. I can read, write, and speak a number of languages that have been lost to the ages, or are beyond the comprehension of average humans

Draw, write, sprite, game; In my free time, I study my extensive library in search of the knowledge of the world.

10) Collect anything
books, models

11) what is your other personality? (meaning emo or goth or something)
Schizophrenic

12) Religion? (if you don't want to say you don't have to)
I personally follow the gods of Asgard (Odin, Thor, etc. of the Norse Pantheon) though I believe in the existence of the gods of all ancient religion. Their involvement on earth, however, is another matter entirely

13) What's your signature move?
Too many spells to list

14) Finishing move?
Death Knell: Forbidden magic that utterly destroys all life in a wide area. Nothing may ever grow there again. Use of this spell damns the caster's soul, and may very well claim his own life

15) How high can your power level go?
Power level? How cute. Rather than focusing on physical might, I sharpen my mind, and could very easily destroy a planet had I any desire to. I am, however, far more interested in learning its secrets than blowing them up

16) Do you transform into something else and if so how many?
Transformation is simple enough, but maintaining it takes concentration and willpower. Transformation is far from my usual practice, but were I so inclined there are few things I could not become.

Inner demon? Yes and no. I have an "alter ego" whom I set loose upon this world by accident.

20) Weakness?
My mind is strong. My body is weak.

21) Limit Breaker?
I cannot tolerate your bothersome questions

22) Deadliest move?
I can kill you with a word. What more do I need?

23) Weapons you fancy
I wield a sacrificial dagger by the name of Glesdrsyl. Carved from obsidian and blessed by some ancient forgotten god, its edge is unimaginably sharp, but it cannot kill except upon its intended altar.

24) Your other personality
Do you mean the one I unleashed upon the physical world, or the idiotic pervert?

25) Your power level right now(in Gaia terms 1 to 1000)
Again with this infernal power level nonsense..

Love someone
I see no point in love
(I have a girlfriend and a boyfriend. Kurt, however, is completely asexual)

27) Hate anyone
Anyone and everyone. You are all annoying

28) Speed level
Without augmentations, quite minimal. This is easily fixed, however.

29) Fantasy of the opposite gender(specific please, you can put anything here)
How do you mean?

30) Fav. Game(s)?
Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy VIII, Super Smash Brothers, Castlevania, Megaman

31) Fav. Character of question 30
Joshua (FE: Sacred Stones), Squall, Captain Falcon, Alucard, Bass

I got a pocket knife that I keep on my person at most times. I have two sets of throwing knives, 3 inches from tip to tail, 3 in each set for a total of six. I have an uchigatana/wakizashi pairing that I may use on occasion. I have a bokuto (a wooden katana) and I have a set of shinobigatana. I have a pair of nunchaku, and I have a pair of tonfa. I also have a 5-foot long steel pole. I have only marginal training with anything, it's all pretty-much self-taught

24) Your other personality
I'd be that idiotic pervert Kurt mentioned.. But that aside
Like I said, there's four souls in this one body. You have me, you have Deemer, you have Rex, and you have Tomato. Deemer's a serial killer (he's also the jackass that ripped off my wing) Tomato's a little kid (scared shitless most of the time) and Rex is a dog (cute little bugger)

25) Your power level right now(in Gaia terms 1 to 1000)
Uhm.. probably less than 10 ._.
Unless Deemer takes control, then I have no idea
