Since the very beginning of EI, I’ve told my friends that they should write some of these comics. I thought it’d be a fun group project. For a while, no one embraced this idea. I think everyone thought since Escalade Incompetency was my creation, that they would be invading my territory, or changing the characters in ways I didn’t want the comic to go.

I can understand that, although I still wanted people to have fun creating these comics with me. So, I’ve decided to make this Fan/Friend Comics page to show the world what you guys can do. This also gives you the freedom to basically do anything you want: you can change storylines, change character names–anything at all! These won’t affect the plotline of the regular comic. They’re their own society over here.

I guess that means they’re technically “non canon.” But they’re still good times!

Email me your creations: mikegoldense [at] gmail [dot] com

I’ll post them up here with your name. If you make a whole lot of them (please do!), I’ll post your latest ones near the top: just how the regular comic works. And, I’ll even let everyone know on the main page that a new one is up.

Here’s the templates for you guys to download (right-click ‘em and “save as”):
