I would argue that any offspring produced through homosexual relations would most certainly be unplanned and unintended.
Seriously though there are so many issues with this logic, I don't even

Oh yeah, it really touched people's lives. Definitely. They learned important life lessons about the proper way to level your shaman in WoW and not using cheat codes. Good to see that Lilah got to keep her dreams alive. You know, her being a professional gamer and all. Or maybe having a family and life of her own. Nope it's just a church with Ethan as Jesus for her.
Yup, because if I didn't show it to you in a comic panel, it clearly never happens.
Why is that I can show you a panel of Lucas, with a girl you've never seen before, and you can manage to piece together that A) he finally met a girl and settled down B) got married C) they had sex and D) she got pregnant and gave birth to their child... but I show you a panel of Lilah opening up a Church of Gaming in Ethan's memory and it's suddenly "WHELP, I GUESS THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT HAPPENED IN HER LIFE, EVER."
Seriously.

It's things like this which remind me how stupid it is that in this day and age Australia is still a constitutional monarchy.
I can accept that any humans remains may deserve respect but none more or less so than any other. The only requirement for being privileged with the title of king is being born to the correct parents. It requires no skill and it certainly is no feat of human nobility.
It really hurts my brain to think that people are specially dressing and escorting a pile of inanimate matter to avoid offending the memory of a dead king. He lived with the most wealth and privilege that anyone could ever have hoped to in his time and for no reason more significant or meaningful than tripping into a pile of money and he is still being revered as though he were some kind of divine saint.
His life represents one of the greatest social inequalities to ever exist which continues to endure today. His life of absolute privilege is an insult to every person which has ever worked a day in their lives to better and advance themselves in their community.

While today that is arguably the case (though there are no small amount of responsibilities and training that goes into being a monarch), a monarch was once an absolute ruler and wasn't just some guy who had lots of money. It's demonstrably untrue that all that was required was the "correct parents". If that was the case then the history of the English monarchy would be rather different.
I would suggest that before you go off on a rant about a fairly well known historical figure (especially one as interesting as Richard III) you do some research. Richard III was never even meant to be King, so he certainly didn't trip into anything. We're also talking about a time when Kings actually fought in the wars that the land became embroiled in. Indeed, it was his death at the Battle of Bosworth Field that ended the infamous War of the Roses. He didn't just sit on a throne and rake in a ton of cash while peasants starved. Back then, a person in such a position could make a huge, positive impact on a country just as much as they could cause great pain. Despite the Tudor propaganda, there's quite a bit of evidence that suggests that Richard may have actually been a just ruler and a man of the people.
Frankly, I find it very odd that you're using a historical king to discuss modern inequalities. It's an anachronism of the highest order.

Bloody hell. I don't expect you to know the history of a country you don't live in, but the article even explains why calling him a "tyrant" isn't particularly accurate. Richard III was the last monarch of the Plantagenet dynasty, and the Tudors were extremely keen to cast him in a bad light in an attempt to further legitimise their control of England. So much of what we know about Richard III is saturated by Tudor propaganda, and people have dedicated a significant amount of study to finding out the facts about his reign.
It is history that is being honoured, an important part of England's past and culture. And the hope is that this will inspire more study into his life, because just writing someone off as a tyrant because his enemies, the people who caused his death, said he was, isn't particularly objective.
To call this "sick" is absolutely ridiculous. I find your venom towards something you know so little about a lot more disturbing than preserving and studying an important aspect of a nation's history.

My plan for the comic is specifically this:
A couple months of one-shots. These will be about games, movies, whatever. Pretty much like I do now. Sometimes they'll feature the Players, sometimes random people, sometimes they'll take place in a game, sometimes talking about a game, whatever. Again, very similar to what you get now inbetween storylines.
When I say "the Players will be featured more prominently" I don't mean "They'll be in every strip". You'll just see them a little more, and they'll develop more personality. Because sometimes I just want to do character humor (ie, the funny interactions between two characters you know) without necessarily doing a whole storyline. I will turn the Players into characters that you can actually get to know. They will no longer be incredibly violent ALL the time. Player 4 will continue to be insane though. She's my favorite
However, during the 2-3 months that I'm putting out the one-shots for you, I will also be writing and producing issues of a comic book featuring Ethan and Lucas. Most of these will be comic book length (22-24 pages), though I may do the occasional smaller story in between.
When they're finished, I may make them available in digital/kindle/e-book format, in their entirety for $0.99 or whatever. BUT... you don't have to buy them. Because shortly afterwards, they'll go up on the website for free. One page a day, every day, until the entire book is up (during which I will be taking a much needed 3 week vacation, after having spent 3 months working on one-shots AND a full comic book all at once).
The option to purchase the full book first is just that... an option, for people who don't want to wait while the issue updates for free online, or who want to own a copy that they can take with them. But I want to stress that they will all be made available for free, on the website, just like usual. I'm not putting a payment gate in front of the content, I just figure since the issue will be finished first, why not give people the option.
The other reason is this: I haven't decided exactly how I'm going to write these issues yet. I may do them strictly comic book by myself. I may mix some prose with some comic book panels to do a sort of hybrid novella thing. OR, I may just hire an artist to work on it with me. And if I end up deciding that the work would be better served by an artist better than myself, and I need to hire one, then selling the issues digitally will help offset that.
But again, no matter what, you don't have to buy them that way. You can wait, and receive them via updates on the website.
And that's pretty much how it will go. A few months of one-shots, a month of straight up story. A few months of one-shots, a month of straight up story. Rinse and repeat. Very similar to how it is now, on the surface.

That's right ladies and gents. I'll be doing a random drawing of all who enter to get a free game on Steam! I'll pay for it, gift it to you, you have to do the rest. I'll be going up to $60 so you might get that brand new game that you couldn't afford because of your coke habit.
Here's how this works. You post saying which game you want. That's all. It has to be UP TO $60 USD.
I was thinking of offering a game to be delievered to your home but I found a couple issues with that. First, I don't want your addresses. Second, I don't want to pay for the out of country shipping to one of you living in Australia.
So, I'll do the random drawing thing next Wednesday after work. It'll probably be around midnight headed into Thursday, November 14th.
Get in there are may the odds be ever in your favour!
