Back in 2002 and thereabouts, I drew a comic strip that I called "The Book of Sighs." It revolved around a character named Silent C (who had no face) and his friends, all of which were super-heroes (with maybe a villain or two). To this day, I think that my best attempts at humor lie in those old pages. The humor was silly, the characters were far-fetched, and there was the ever-present melancholy. When I look at my more recent comics, I see a trend for lighter, more realistic comedy. ...And frankly, it doesn't seem as worth-while. In my attempts to mature my story-telling, I've been using a different type of humor. It's not bad (I've been told), it's just, well, different. Well, I say it's time to bring back the old comics, redrawn with my somewhat improved skills.
I'll still continue my other comic, if I can get past a little writer's block, but I'm looking forward to getting my pencils back to what I consider my definitive series.
Maybe you'll look forward to it as well.
