Oh dear! So. I had originally drawn the last comic and this one as a single, double-length page, like ones I’ve uploaded in the past. But I realized that to tell the story correctly, I needed to adjust the pace and add some additional material. My original aim was to close out this “chapter” at…Read more
Uh oh! We’ve got quite the situation developing here ;) In coloring this comic, I opted for a scheme of tints and shades of four hues, organized this way: I guess you could look at it as an analogous scheme with a complementary accent (the cyan)… but in the comic the slightly violet red hue…Read more

Narrative-wise, it was important to me that Rudek encounter Skorzany in a kind of liminal space (ask your English Major friends), which the wild and windy snowstorm is supposed to create here….Read more
