Mister 8 hits 200 posts
I am amazed that I’ve had the attention span to make it this far! And as I discussed in our one-year anniversary round-up the other day, there’s plenty of stuff that I have yet to cover.
I couldn’t figure out what to post for my 200th post. I’ve got a few other posts that should be forthcoming — a look at Hitchcock’s three not-really-spies-on-the-run films, a tablature for the wedding theme in You Only Live Twice, and a look at the Kommissar X films, starring the late Tony Kendall, which I’d already planned to watch tonight.
In the end, though, I found it fitting to return to the reason I made this site in the first place — that dagblasted failure-so-far of a comic. Here’re some sketches that I’ve worked on lately, trying to figure out who exactly this character is. I think one of my biggest mistakes was jumping right in, thinking that things would click into place as I drew each chapter. But as early as week two, I already had major regrets about what I should have done differently for the sake of the story, characters, etc.
