I will post your comics first, and the synopsis. I want to start off by saying you all did a great job. I seriously loved them both so much.
In the beautiful region of French Polynesia lies a small slice of haven called Tahiti. It is here that the story of one of the fiercest group of people to ever come together takes place. Dubbing themselves "THE TANECIOUS 8" this merry band of misfits that includes a caveman (BJ), a supermodel from Delaware (Katie), a professor (Max), a missile scientist (Misty), a werewolf (Pete), a simplificationist (Sierra) and THAT girl (Alexis) come together to avert a deadly crisis when the lovely ladies of Tahiti, Morgan and Chelsea, are kidnapped by notorious rogues Daniel Foley and Caryn Groeden. Will these unlikely heroes be able to thwart the threat posed by these ne'er do well no-gooders? Or will our beautiful hostesses succumb to a tragic fate? Find out in this first issue titled "THE TANECIOUS 8: Missing Tits in Tahiti!"
And now...
Matty Doo and the Tahitian Tango with Tangaroa
After solving their thirtieth mystery, Matty Doo and the rest of the crew have decided to take a break and go on vacation in Tahiti. It’s not soon after they arrive when they begin hearing from people who claim to have sighted a sea creature walking on two legs along the northern beaches. A Tahitian elder by the name of Danielle speaks with them, telling them the tale of Tangaroa. Half-man, half-dolphin, Tangaroa is said to have been cursed to walk the lands of Polynesia every hundred years in search of his lost Queen, Te’Anu. They also learn that Tangaroa has been scaring factory workers and tourists alike away from the northern beaches, especially around the world famous rice factory, Arroz Fabrica. Much to Matty Doo and Eddy’s displeasure, the gang decides to investigate.
At the factory, they meet Abi, who is working doubly hard to keep the place afloat. She tells the gang that rice has been going missing from the factory lately, and that many workers are refusing to work late in order to make up for the difference out of fear of encountering Tangaroa. They decide to stake out the factory that night, where it isn’t long before the night shift workers suddenly run out of the factory in terror screaming “Tangaroa, Tangaroa!”. So, like a completely rational being, Jay decides that they’d better split up. Matty Doo and Eddy head straight for the factory’s breakroom, fantasizing about a bowl of fried rice 12 feet high. Eddy even has his own pocket-fork ready to go. On the way, they decide to pick up a bag of rice to fry, which is where they finally encounter Tangaroa, bumping into him in the rice storage room. Matty Doo and Eddy run away, calling out for Jay, Sarah, and Darrah.
The crew gets back together and investigates the storage room. Matty Doo and Eddy are practically shivering because of their close encounter with Tangaroa, but Jay isn’t so sure it was even a God in the first place. He points out a trail of rice leading down the hallway, and they follow it out into the woods. They follow the trail, eventually happening upon an old road with fresh tire marks in the dirt.
The next night, Jay sets up traps around Arroz Fabrica, and then sends Matty Doo and Eddy in as bait. Not soon after they enter, Tangaroa shows up in all his fishy glory. This time, though, he chases after Matty Doo and Eddy, before finally getting caught in one of Jay’s net traps. Jay ties the net’s rope around a tree, and he, Darrah, Sarah, and Abi all come out from the forest. They hear a muffled voice coming from Tangaroa before Jay takes off its mask. Abi is shocked. “Stephen?” she says, “But why?”. Stephen Fischbach scowls at them all, before finally muttering the words “Fuck u Eddie” “You always had it out for me Abi!”. Stephen goes on to explain that he wore the costume so that he could scare everyone away from the factory while he stole bags of rice. He goes on to remind Abi about how she voted him out of the business, and that this was his way of taking his revenge upon her and Arroz Fabrica.
As the police take Stephen away, the gang celebrates another mystery solved, while the camera pans over their shoulder toward the beach where we see the tide slowly washing away flipper prints in the sand leading out from the forest and into the deep blue ocean.
Judge #1
For Tane
Creativity - 9/10 I loved the theme and story to the comic, I thought it was humorous and kept me wanting more.
Originality - 6.5/10 As much as I loved the concept I do feel that giving everyone code names was great however we all know where the inspiration comes from. (I believe it does pay a good tribute though!)
Incorporation of Tribe - 9/10 It was very apparent which character each person was on the strip, adding faces on the people and thought it also added to the humor that it produced.
For Vahine
Creativity - 8/10 I loved how much it felt like a real comic book but kept it professional and fun!
Originality - 7/10 I got major Scooby Doo vibes from it and I apologize if that wasn't the aim but I think the story is still very unique.
Incorporation of Tribe - 6/10
It's good to see everyone included in the strip but from what I gather the story doesn't focus on your group as a tribe, more so as individuals brought together by other events.

For Tane
Creativity- 9.5/10 I actually really enjoyed this. The comic was hilarioud from start to finish especially the part with Sue LOL I bursted out laughing.
Originality- 7.0/10 I think that it was original to an extent. It just didn't feel so original to me in a way but I loved it so much that I didn't care.
Incorporation of Tribe- 10/10 I loved how you guys put everyone into this and gave them code names. I thought you excelled at this completely.
For Vahine
Vahine
Creativity- 6.0/10 This is creative to an extent but like it seems very.. Bland to an extent.
Originality- 9.0/10 I think that you nailed it with originality. The story itself was great.
Incorporation of Tribe- 4.0/10 I mean you all were included in the story itself but I wish the characters were you 2! It would have made it 10x better
