State of the Comic

Man, it's been a while since I posted at two blogs at once. One version for here, the other for Welltun Cares Presents. A bit of a hassle but...

It's been since December since I've updated the comic. Some may well be thinking, is he ever going to get back on with the work? They may well even wonder if there is some reason for the delay, beyond the loss of a scanner. Here's the thing. I'm damn proud of the comic. I think the art's some of the best work I've done. It's meant to improve my craft, tell my stories, and I think it's done that.

Only... It could have been better. It should have been better. And this knowledge has killed further work on the story. I've tried to pick things up, but it's just not working out.

So, it's with a heavy heart that I have to say... I'm starting the whole thing over.

From scratch.

I've been working on a new way of doing things.

I've set out a sort of story guide that leads me through twenty stories. This includes the one I was going to use as the novel.

My art should be improved as well as I am not longer drawing page-for-page, or even enlarged panels. Now I'm using four 8.5X11 pages for a single page. This should allow better detals as well as better all around pictures.

I'm also going to try and get a few of these stories published on their own. Loads of work.

The comic should restart around my birthday, and I hope to have a story or two out before that.

More word as warrented, and I hope you'll all be here to see it all start. Again.
