Gotta show some love for the anti-hero…Desmond!

Enjoy the new episode all and once again, thanks for all the good thoughts and kind words!

Peace be with you,

Due East: Thanks for your feedback on this episode. You know it's funny you said that about the BIG font. I used to get complaints that it was too small back in the day. Now that I've gone bigger…WATCH OUT! No, you're probably right - I think I actually need to go with small pages. Or find a happy medium between the two extremes.

GSP: I enjoy writing stories around Desmond's character because he's a combination of at least five or six students I knew/know. That said, the script for this series was written in advance. All three years of middle school - so I DO know what happens in the end. There is some slight tweaking to keep it relevant to pop culture today (I wrote this comic back in 1999).

As the series moves on, you'll see Desmond attempt to represent as best as he can…especially given his family of origin. That's what makes him so much the epitome of the phrase, "better luck next time". Good or bad, he never stops trying to…represent.
