Comic Scripts: West, Part 5

Blagh Blagh Blagh Blagh Blagh.

Swear to Dog, I have an excuse. A good one! See, from Friday until Monday, I was actually in Iowa, checking out my college, and thus without reliable access to the internet! So, it's not totally my fault!

...Well, Friday I guess is a bit my fault.

Plus, plus, I picked up some kind of nasty bug on the plane out there or something, which is why I didn't update on Monday or yesterday. See? Totally not my fault.

Sigh.

No use crying over spilt milk, might as well post the next scene or so. I really like this one, incidentally.

And so the schedule gets back on track with the next couple of pages! These were extremely difficult to plot out in the end, because there's a fair amount that I needed to communicate about Stacy, Kearn, and Frank's motivations and outlooks, even though I REALLY did not want to resort to straight exposition. The result is a lot of space spent in the panel descriptions, but I think a good artist could make it clear what's going on.

Then again, not being an artist, I could be totally wrong. Either way, here are the pages.

Whelp, I suppose it was only a matter of time until I missed the schedule. Gotta say, I expected to do better than TWO POSTS on time.

Blah. In any case, here's the next scene. Part four arriving in about half an hour, so Stay Tuned!

Comics Scripts: West. Part 2

For once keeping up with my schedule, barely, Here's the next couple of pages of "West" #1. Come to think of it, I should probably come up with an actual name for this story. Maybe later. Actually, if you think of anything, please put it in the comments, since every idea I've had about it has sucked.

Anyway, on with the story!

Comic Scripts: West, Part 1

So, I've spent the last couple of months largely working on an extensive personal project. I've been on a bit of a western kick - cowboys, gunfights, ghost towns, that kind of thing - so I started kicking around a notebook full of ideas for western comics. They don't really connect to each other in any way other than genre and, loosely, the setting, but I figured I might as well get it out there on the internet.

Collectively, I've just been referring to them as "West," me being the master of original titles that I am. I'll be posting the stories a couple of pages at a time periodically - say three days a week. Not having anything resembling a readership, I suppose that's mostly for my own amusement as well as not having a couple of mile-long posts on this blog. You can begin reading after the jump.
