Well it's worth a try. Here's a page that I did a while ago. You may have seen it before either in my other thread or in sig but here it is again. Sorry I didn't ink it. One of the inking pens I bought broke and I can't possibly use the other one because it's too big.

please call it a "comic book" and not a "graphic novel" :(

Why if you don't mind me asking.

[EDIT: Oh silly me I forgot to fill you in on the changes I made. The "graphic novel" is entirely from the point of view of Roger, but every event that happens is actually a reflection of that event being written in a journal. Hence why it says Roger Journal Entry.]

Why don't you ever spellcheck your comics before posting them? Maybe I'm the only person here that cares about spelling.

Quinched should be quenched in the third panel.

Absolutely not, I'm just silently infuriated.

You guys are never going to get used to my spelling errors. Are you?

"graphic novels" are a fad right now, plus I guess I wouldn't be the one to know, but I doubt that you are going to make something that is a full novel length, and calling it a graphic novel would be a little incorrect.

Mainly, graphic novels are a fad right now and it's kind of like a kiss of death to be going "nevermind I'm making a graphic novel instead of a comic now"

Here's a situation that I had wanted to draw for a very long time now.

I tried inking the first three pannels with regular writing pen put as you can see that didn't turn out well so I decided to draw the rest in pencil only. Sorry for the lack of quality in the last panel I was really trying to finish this today.

It is not the entire world's burden to become used to your inability to take 15 seconds to spellcheck.

It is your responsibility to spell correctly.

Simple.
