I love the stories you create and the pictures match them perfectly.

I’m equally worried that I’m reading too much into this, and that I’ve “got” it this time.

I only caught this after many read-throughs. Great little detail.

Thanks, and I hope some of your friends enjoy the comic too!

I’ve now read through your entire archives and can safely say I’m now a huge fan. It reminds me very strongly of some of Neil Gaiman’s stuff, at least in writing. The art style…it’s on the tip of my tongue, and I can’t quite place it, but it is nevertheless very poignant and beautiful. I do hope you continue updating, as I’ll be spreading you around amongst my friend network as much as I can without being gagged with a sock.

Also, it wouldn’t surprise me if that were already an idea (someone marrying someone else’s imagination) you’ve had for a story before.

I love your use of halftoning, e.g. on the senator and the boxer, and the economy of your backgrounds make them really evocative.

Straight on my blogroll.
