DEAR LORD THESE PAGES ARE SO DAMN HOT.
Everything from the characters to the environment, story and color. You run the risk of falling over that precipice of being too cluttered and muddy in your pages, but you have a real talent for balancing perfectly on that point. Detailing just enough that the reader is left enjoying the page rather than being overwhelmed by it. That takes some real mean skill.
Please don't ever stop posting your work on VOID. Its just too damn awesome not to share.

This is pure beauty. I've been off Void for a while now but this is just the sort of thing to get me pumped.
The colours are beauteous, and I don't know how you did it but I love every character so far!
Even the random peeps strolling past.
A lot of artists in the world have really eye catching work with punch in your face visual intensity, which is great, but that can ware off in time, what is truly rare though is a depth and intricacy that would make you wanna come back for more years later, just sumptuous.
You have both the punch in your face and the beautiful depth, and its truly inspirational, keep pushing it!
Thanks!

Fuckin' fantastic, man. I kinda thought I was over broody, wiseass, worst-aspects-of-consumerism-and-pop-culture-run-amok cyberpunk, but you brought it all rushing back. I can't wait to see more -- this is a comic I would absolutely buy.
It boggles my mind how much design work you must've done for this. Every article of clothing, every piece of set, every grimy prop combine to create the feeling of a lived-in place with history and culture.
I also want to mention the coloring. I love the palette, and the loose-but-detailed rendering suits your lineart perfectly.
I gave you 10s across the board, which I've never done.
I can't gush so much without offering any critique, though. To my mind, there's one single, solitary thing that's really lagging behind the rest of your work: You really need to work on your hands. Everything else about your characters look great, but they kinda just fall apart when you get to the wrists. If you bring your hands up to the level of the rest of your work, I think it'll improve the overall impression tremendously and really put you on the next level.
Again -- incredible work! I can't wait to see more.

As I said on deviantart, I would pay good money for a comic like this.

I find myself hard pressed to give this any less than a perfect score. If this entry has any faults, it's simply that it's too short and doesn't show us the concept in action. But it's otherwise perfect in every other way and is a perfect example of how to build a world and set up in as a few pages as possible. I wish you luck in shipping this around.

JETSTER: Who the fuck would turn this down, by the way? Was it just a case that they don't publish this kind of story or what?
I've got an internship with Milk Shadow Books in Melbourne starting in Feb/March sometime, I'd love to show this to my boss if that would be alright? This is the sort of thing that is right up their alley.

This is amazing. I had to read it three times, because the first time I was so busy looking at the art. The amount of detail you've gone to is amazing, everything from the things littering the counter of the food place, to the people in the background. I can feel the atmosphere of the place and I'm totally transported there because of it. Wow.
When I went back and read the story it's great too. The characters and story are so interesting. Can't wait to see more.

Hello gentlemen, this is my pitch that I unsuccessfully tried to complete a few months ago. Now I have too much free time and too much coffee, so it is finished. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! There's some color consistency with the yellow boxes and I misspelled 'euphamism' on the last page but other than that I'm not sure what I fucked up.
