Very cool, Souba! You've got some classy panel compositions there, and the screen tones are well chosen. I'm always impressed when someone can tell a story in just three pages. Nice entry!

[color="RoyalBlue"]Thank you Esoteric! Like I said I really loved your story, it made me not want to post up mine. :eh: But since I put a lot of work into it this week I figured I was obligated too, lol :thumb:

Very cool art; I liked the way you drew the panels and stuff (and no, I don't know what I'm talking about). It really felt like reading a few pages out of a manga volume. I just felt that it was the beginning of a greater story to be told! :)

:D Awesome! You even made the speech bubbles kinda vertical so it looks like it was translated! Excellent! :thumb:

[color="RoyalBlue"]You know that statement made me cry with joy. I've worked for years at my art so that I would be able to recreate authentic Japanese style mangas, and I finally feel like I'm getting there!
Thank you gain everyone that just made my week! :D

I agree with the looking-like-it-was-translated thing. This comic is awesome; did you draw that background street image on the first page? If so...oh my gosh. This is reeeeeeally good artwork.

@Pyro it was drawn and inked by hand then scanned into Photoshop with screentones etc added.
