Almost Time!
One day away to the time I start making my comic. :D
The way its going to work is that I will have a very light pencil sketch of where I want everything in the scene. I will then use varieties of pens to achieve a "layering thickness" effect. I will then scan the result, color it in Corel Painter, and then move the image to Comic Life.
Because I only have 111.1 megabyte space on my disk, I will need to clear up some stuff.
So excuse me for a minute while I do so.
...
OK, back!
Anyway, I have figured out that 365 divided by 5 equals 73, which is how long each story in my volume is going to be. The only plots I have are the ones in my head. I plan to take the story as far as I can go each day, and I also plan to put tons of detail into it. Anyway, thats about all I can do now. Note that I may show pencil to pen to color to finished page only on pages that seem to need a more detailed study.
I hope this is as fun for you as it SHOULD BE for me. :P

Now my favorite part... The Vision! In order for you to understand it when I show you pages of my WIP comic, as I am making it, I must tell you the plot of each part of this volume.
Also, I might be able to rig up a little slideshow somewhere on this blog where you will be able to see the whole comic. But, until then... I only have... THE VISION!
OK, here goes.
Hey that was easy. Oh, duh! I wrote that a while ago! Its the synopsis for the first story in the volume!
Anyway, now that you know the plot, I can proceed as planned.
Have fun reading, and look out for that slideshow! :D

Character Designs
There are many things you need to do before making a comic book, and some of them are designing characters, writing scripts, and laying out layouts. Because I am going to do a page a day, I can't do any character designs as well. Thats why the work doesn't begin in 2011, it really begins now.
I drew the main character first, of course. His name is Zach and he is the owner of a superhero shop, where the superheroes buy all of their outfits, weapons, and stuff. But what the superheroes doesn't know is that he has another side to him, sort of like Dr. Jekkell (or however you spell it).

And that side sells to the villains. The size comparison shows his other side Hcaz size compared with him. When he becomes Hcaz he bulks up and becomes meaner, and more likable to the villains.
The different stores, The Super Store and Evil 4 Sale are back to back, continuing with the yin/yang theme.
Thats about the only design I've made so far and liked, so thats about it.
