Hey- I just realized the bonus page might not have clicked. The image in the middle frames is from a scary children's book series called "Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark". My bf and Gregly told me a few days ago that they never read it as kids and the joke was kind of lost to them. For example: I never had heard of "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" until the movie so I get why it could be confusing for those who don't know. I thought Mr. Kent's design looked like that creature and Boom would associate the two of them together.
Kent as always I love your expressions and the way you delivered your story. But your technical stuff like the use of blacks and backgrounds is impressive! You captured Boom's personality better than Hob's other opponents, and almost every page had a laugh-out-loud joke. Nice work!
Liz, I know you rushed this (because I was sitting watching you rush this) but you still managed to make a funny cohesive story. I like how you were color-coding the characters and how you filled the backgrounds but you may have done better wih more backgrounds... But time was an issue of course. As for the bonus page it doesn't seem Boom is having a nightmare about Gargonne really, it may have been funny if you had drawn her and used that creepy face as her face... Probably. Keep at it!
Kent: I can't remember the last time I've seen you draw such an array of emotions as with Boom here, it's great! As usual your humor is spot on and your writing is consistently on point with the way we see void city through your panels. There's a few too many empty panels that I wish ahd more going on in them.
Hobbittastic: You've got some sick sweet expressions in these faces fo sho. I don't think the markers helped with your backgrounds TBH, you may have been better off washing them evenly with solid colors. Most glaring is the large panel of page 2. Also, and this is something I've noticed with some of your comics, the payoff at the end feels a bit abrupt. You always have great setups, but sometimes if feels like you're not ending these comics as well as you could be.
Good job party peoples
Kent, I thought you captured Boom and Meredith really well, it was funny and charming but also had a sort of fascinating depth to it! The art Im not sure was your best, in some places it seemed a little phoned in but I enjoyed the story and jokes enough that I barely noticed that. Good show! also nice to see more of Gargonne and Aegis since I know so little about them!
Hobbit, LOL WTF? your comics always crack me up, your humor is such a trip! That last page was terrifying!! your page sizes weirdly changed size a lot in this which kinda threw me off but I like how your coloured it, and you have hilarious expressions! Boom and Meredith are quickly rising to some of my favorite characters!
Hahahaaha Loved both stories!!
Kent's line is very sahrp! Hobb plot was very funny!
I just want to give a small suggestion to Hob, if you let me. Is that on page 6, first panel, it took me a couple seconds to get that Gargonne and AEGIS were jumping back to a battle instance... I would suggest you to break the action in two pannels or leaving an "after image" ...
Good job you all!! : )
