Just playing around with silent comics again. The way I see it it doesn't seem like there'd be much talking in a scene like this.
And a happy Christmas Eve for all of you who're into that. I'm not much for it myself. Also it's a snow day, or rather a snow week where I'm at! It's been snowing for almost a week straight and it's really piled up, this is actually rather weird because in Portland it very rarely will snow more than a few inches if that. I'm really excited about it myself!

@usedbooks: To be fair you're right.
I won't say at the moment what Mr. Prescott is and isn't at this point. Luckily Cricket runs faster than he does.
The idea that was present to me was printing Cricket's Creature as a graphic novel, I guess the distinction is a physical book. At the size of your story it would be a really heavy read if it was printed as a single book! A bit of trivia is that the longest printed single volume graphic novel to date is roughly the size of your current archive.
@Cross: Thanks! It's great to have new readers. Incidentally, whose outfit did you mean?
@ulthor: Probably something like that, yeah.
@Peipei: At the very least he's a scary guy that'll mess ya up.
@amanda: Cricket's actually not much of a fighter and a little hesitant to rumble against some guy three times her size! Especially if he turns out to be an alien.
@Steely Gaze: Ha! I'm glad that someone noticed! I like putting tiny details in like that to see if people notice them. Like the posters and graffiti that's sometimes on the walls throughout the city and weird titles on peoples' bookcases etc. And yes, he may be a robot too.
@Trevor: Thanks for the encouragement, I really appreciate it. My main reason for being hesitant about it is the fact that I have a lot of mixed feelings about my comics and I'm rather unsure about the whole idea.
@Zephyrion: Thanks!
@Warped: I'd imagine when the story is finished it'll be about 150 pages. I've printed comics too, but they were minicomics and didn't have very big print runs that were all done on a photocopier. How did you do yours if you don't don't mind me asking?
