Sorry about being so slow to update, I really want to get on with the story, but I have so many other things have on my todo list. I've decided that I like hand drawn borders (though hopefully they'll get a tiny bit straighter when I get more used to the tablet) and "standard paper size", so for now all of my pages will be in that format. I know a comic with not a lot of visuals is just a terrible novel, but I didn't feel like I could convey the feeling any other way. Also the dialogue is crap, but I really want to get this page out of the way so we can get on to fun stuff! I'm still kind of making this up as I go, so I hope it doesn't get too dark or whatever. Do you know how hard it is to get a sketchy white on black look, using fill and an eraser? Geez this took way longer than it needed to. 2 hours for about 5 seconds of reading. Anyways, see you next page!

The dialogue at the end sounds familiar for some reason

Oooh, Ethan and Matt should check out Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics The Invisible Art (he also has a book on making comics). I've only read a couple chapters that were included in one of our school books, but I'm sure there is some way to "obtain" the whole thing. Anyway, the chapters that I read were a great read (it is written as a comic btw) and I'm sure the rest is great as well. It really opens your eyes to the tricks you subconsciously know from being a comic reader.

@Hussein That sounds really interesting. I'll have to look into that. Thanks!

@Hussein Yeah, I was actually looking at that on Amazon the other day. I heard about it from Day[9] (who got a game design masters from USC O_o) and some of his friends on a YouTube video. I'll definitely have to look into it now.

@Hassan I dunno, IS IT? It's supposed to be...

@Rem If it is from something, then I've subconsciously stolen it.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- God I hate hands. And then I go and erase 90% of it for the frame. Anyways, I think I need to make smaller frames so that I can fit more story on each page. As always it should just get better as I get used to computer drawing.

At first, I was like, huh? There are no hands. And then I realized that you had put up another page. Haha.

Also, what did you mean by this:

Where you referring to the orb thingy or did you actually mean frame? I'm just trying to clarify.

I meant, I drew a hand, but when I actually put it in the scene, the orb covered 90% of it and it hardly even mattered at that point.

This is just a wild shot in the dark.... but I'm guessing that the orb has gold coloring?

As it has to do with Ho-oh there could also be some rainbow on it if so desired =P
