This is Due East's first credits page and first full splash page. I wanted to give the overhead perspective of Carolyn having a contemplative walk down the street.

Responses to comments from the last page:

usedbooks: Thanks! The penciling is my first artistic love. It is my preferred style but I am getting more and more confortable with inking and coloring.

I agree. I don't think we'll really see any signs of gorging but the lack of appetite (for Carolyn) is bad enough.

Tantz Aerine: Thanks, I appreciate that. Yes, we're working pretty hard on the dialogue. We're trying to make it representative of how teenagers would talk to one another, even with such a crisis as Carolyn's mom's death.

blntmaker: Thanks. I agree, and I think this story is greatly needed to help show why Brielle and Carolyn have such a close tie to one another.

I'm very much looking forward to seeing your pages. :)

Rockster1039: Thanks for the 5!

kyupol: Nice bit of irony, eh?

JustNoPoint: Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. It's nice to see you getting into envisioning the whole tv show/actors scenario. Cool!

trevoramueller: Thanks for your kind words and sentiment. I'm glad you enjoyed the pencils.

albone: Thanks. Yes, it is a pretty tense scene. :)


In the meantime, why not check out the new collaborative comic called Off Hours? How often do you get to see some of the webcomic "actors" from Due East, Nadya, Purgatory Tower, Better Luck Next Time, Used Books, The Devon Legacy, Wolf and Aurora of the High Seas off the set of their "shows?"
