Interesting Times Friday Mailbag: "A Dashing Man-About-Town Am I"
Got a question for the Friday Mailbag?
Send it in, because this one was spam!
THAT’S WHAT I’M DOWN TO HERE
kidding, there’s a few more questions.
That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t send yours!
Throw it at
journalcomic at gmail dot com
Super Double Comixplosion!
ONE: Interesting Times Friday Mailbag: “HI, BILLY MAYS HERE TO HAUNT YOUR DREAMS”
TWO: I hope at least one person agrees with me, because if not I’ll just come off as super insecure
As a rule I don’t write out lengthy news posts like other comics, but I just wanted to make a feeble excuse for missing Friday’s update and remind y’all that you can send questions to journalcomic at gmail dot com. I’m getting a little more spam these days, which in my convoluted reasoning means that even the spambots are reading this page now and therefore readership in general is up. Thanks all!
p.s.: I didn’t write out the feeble excuse because it is seriously pretty sad. Hardly worth mentioning, really. Let’s all just move on?

[BEGIN COMMENTARY] I’m very happy with the artwork in this comic, starting with the Eustace Tilley shout-out in the middle panel (full disclosure: I’ve never read the New Yorker, but that’s sort of an iconic image and it captured what I was going for).
CARINA in the last panel looks like something you’d have to fight in Contra or Mega Man so of course I am happy with that too. Mostly it’s because of that big sort-of-skull on top, which honestly was an accident. When it comes to cartoony supercomputers I draw a big rectangle and start adding details, usually massive cables and lots of little lines. The “orbs” just made it look like a face, suddenly.

oh wait, that’s actually covered by the paradox
some days you should seriously never borrow n64 games to
Ugh. The 2nd panel is the most confusing thing ever, now that I look at it. Why couldn’t I arrange it into panels that actually flow? Also, it looks ridiculous for a stick person to get stabbed; why am I trying to crowd a confusing image like that into a tiny panel? These are BAD CHOICES. On top of all that, I could have gotten an eight-year-old to draw the car in the last panel. I guess what I am trying to say is that this is not my favourite comic ever. [February 13, 2012]
people are simply not ready to see that side of you
