Hi! As you say, there might be a thematic closeness with ALIL in some of these comics. It’s not intentional, but if that’s what some readers are reminded of, it is indeed flattering and I probably miss it as much as everybody who knows it.

I just read all your comics, and like a few other commenters, my first thought was that this was (in the best possible way) much like A Lesson is Learned: visually and thematically. Anyway, brilliant writing, keep it up!

Hello,

I found your site through koala wallop – where you shared our (obscure) comic with people there! Thank you for that! Karmic justice meant that I simply had to visit your site… And man, I am impressed, and now I really appreciate the fact that you liked our comic, seeing your work here. I detect some of that unique sensitivity and lyrical-philosophical approach to storytelling I have fallen in love with while reading Borges. Keep this up, by all means!

Wonderful recounting of that tale, which I knew from John O’Hara’s Appointment in Samarra. Cocteau’s work is always mysterious and brings in the unseen with shadows and light. Thank you for your homage to him; Your comics are beautiful and fascinating.

Señor Santapau!

Words cannot express how awesome your comic is. Everything in it, from graphics, to words, makes a huge impression. Thank you, and please keep working on Knots, I will tell everyone I know about them at once.

I’m always stunned by these comics! They’re emotional, have great art, and really give unique views on life. This is one of my favorites and I’m eagerly waiting for your next tale.
