The usual suspects from left to right: Neil tugging a rope tied to a mug, Merlin tripping out, Issac doing his Charlie Brown impression, and Morty in a Freudian pose

Shartak MS Paint Comics is a project with Fester Shinetop as illustrator and main writer. Styled after amateur cartoonist Andrew Hussie's MS Paint Adventures, the comics are released as serials. The content is in part contributed by a user base, and overseen by Fester's editorial decisions.

As with many fantasy genre series, the adventure follows a motley crew of diverse members, resulting with complementary traits and driving character dynamics.

In this case, the major characters are:

  • Issac Shepherd - Your bald, slightly unorthographically named, foolhardy youth of a protagonist with a penchant for trouble. Has the longest character description because he is the central figure and deserves the most text devoted to him as a rule in fiction writing.
  • Neil - A hardy bruiser useful as a meat shield. His real name is Thor but he never got around to correct anyone. Also known as 'Barbarian'.
  • Merlin - Learned wizard as soothing as he is inefficient. Possible pedophile. As with many in the trained arts, he is absent minded and calls the hero 'Dave'.
  • Morty - Everyone's favorite skeleton who totally isn't dead. While most people have 206 bones, Morty usually has 53, yet is still considered complete!


Comic Pages

The story plots their exploits starting from a castle prison, as they continue to tumble into bigger messes. Some of the themes of the work include the growth of the main character, sarcastic banter, and breaking the fourth wall.

The following is a compilation of the strips released so far.

Protagonists in Prison

The hero shows his diplomatic skills by threatening the king, resulting in his incarceration, and the fellowship is assembled. Sort of.

Breakout and Bone-Chewers

After making it out of the cell, the group tippytoes into a cavern and adds a charming skeleton to their roster.

Profiles and Stats

A few short pages overviewing character files and skill progression.
