Caption Contest 110: The Bear and the Pussycats

Posted on October 17, 2011 by AFDStudios | Comments Off

Your challenge this week is to come up with the funniest replacement dialog for the following random comics panel:

The best entry (as judged by yours truly) wins the author's choice of either any item they like or any portrait to be included in HeroMachine 3′s final release, or a custom black and white “Sketch of the Day” style illustration (you pick the subject, I draw it however I like).

All entries must be left as a comment (or comments) to this post. Keep ‘em clean (appropriate for a late-night broadcast TV show), but most importantly, keep ‘em funny!

This week we have a cap of no more than five (5) entries per person, so make 'em your best!

NOTE: The UGO Forums are down at the moment so the results of the last Character Design Contest will be delayed, my apologies.

Good luck everyone! You can vote for your top five, but only once. Click on an image to see it at its largest size.

So advancing to the next round are headlessgeneral, Martian Blue, AMS, and DiCicatriz. Congratulations! And since they are all quarter-finalists, each of them has already won their choice of a custom HM3 item, a portrait of themselves, or their choice of a general subject for me to do a "Sketch of the Day" drawing of.

Here's how the brackets look:

Our Consolation Round 2 champion, who wins their choice of a new HM3 item, a custom portrait of their face, or a black and white illustration on a theme of their choice, is ...
