Summary:
I had the pencil sketch of this sitting around for over a year now and today decided to dig it out, dust it off and finish it up as some practice for comic drawing rather than individual pictures. I had tried my hand at comic drawing before and it always turned out disastrous with my trying to cram a ton of panels onto one page along with enough text to fill a short novel, so this time I tried to keep text to a minimum and simplify the panels. Not sure if it worked or not, but gotta start somewhere, lol.

I read a couple dozen tutorials on paneling, layout, typography, etc., so hopefully it helped. The brushes for the screentones I've had for years, so I honestly don't know where they came from, but I didn't make them myself.

Got the second page to this sitting around somewhere, hopefully will get it up by next week sometime.

Any suggestions or comments are appreciated to help me improve
