Consequences - Issue 13
Hey there, Everyone! My brother thinks that you might want to hear from me for a change, so I'm going to try to prepare comments for the Author's comments box for the forseeable future.

Today's page was one of those pages I couldn't wait to get to since I first plotted out how “Consequences” was going to go. I've also been a bit worried about how the whole hell part of the story would be received because of the seeming use of technology throughout the story. We're approaching the explanation for that, so hopefully that will make some sort of sense soon.

On a technical note, I've gone completely digital with the comic as of this page. I am the proud owner of a Gateway C142 XL tablet PC. Along with the portability this affords, I can also draw directly on to the screen, and the stylus even allows for 256 levels of pressure - which seems to be plenty. the upshot of this is that I now work completely paperless. I rough out a page of comics in Photoshop and then go over it in more detail on a separate layer. If you don't get what I'm saying, just trust me that it's HELLA cool! SpANG has been using a tablet PC for a while now, and had convinced me of it's charms many months ago, but now I'm completely hooked!

On a sales note, for those of you unaware, There are now digital (PDF) versions of our print comics available in our online store. These include “Going Home”, "Myths )
