The City: There isn’t much time now

Today’s page of The City marks the beginning of an ongoing storyline. I’m a bit nervous.

A Panel from “The City”

Here’s a panel from the first completed page of The City. I’m still working out the inking and lettering. I haven’t decided yet how many pages I’ll finish before I dare post a whole one. Maybe a thousand.

The City Character Sketches

Because I need something to occupy myself in the ten minutes every day between changing my son’s nappies and my daily nervous breakdown, I realised that I need to start a new project. The City is an idea for a comic that I’ve been thinking about for a while now, and it’s finally approaching the stage where I might be able to post a few pages in the next few weeks. It’ll be a mixture of spy fiction, gag strips and Kafka, inspired by the great proto-comic by Frans Masereel (of whom more later). I’m not sure when I’ll get the whole thing going, but here are some preliminary character designs to be getting on with.
