What do you MEAN 10% done, you’re doing SO MUCH???? I really love this comic, I am in terror and in awe at your power and so excited to keep reading!
Thank you very much! It’s all about the Narrative Arc, all about slowly making one care for all these people before I put ’em thru it! The whole script is fully done and edited, so I know the story will clock in at around 430 pages. It’s just a matter of taking years to draw it now haaa.
