Page 2 of "Love Junkies" done. I decided to start with this mini rather than finish OMGcow comics for now because the minimal style is easier on my arm.
I've had the story for this mini sitting around in my sketchbooks for almost a year now. I knew I wanted to make it "someday"...but this fund-raising venture has really given me a kick in the butt.
I think the hardest challenge I deal with in my personal comic-making is deciding what kind of comics I make. I'm surrounded almost exclusively by boys, having never been very good at making friends with girls. As such, I sometimes forget that there are comics outside of the superhero/macho-man/adventure/fight-scene type. I start thinking that maybe the only way to succeed in this business is to make those type of comics.
Unfortunately, those comics don't really interest me. I guess I have the internet and its immense capacity for underground and web-based comics that encompass slice-of-life, diary/autobio, psychological, mystery, horror and other genres that don't really fit into the Marvel/DC world-view.
I just need to constantly remind myself that if I just make the comics that
I would want to read, maybe somewhere, other people might like it too
