--END
I feel like that last panel ended the arc kind of abruptly. But, I didn't have anything to cover another page. I had no more story to tell. I like this ending too. It's simple and to the point without being drawn out. Anyways, the story is finished and it's time to move on to a new one. I have a couple surprises in store. *mischievous face

I like playing around with Joe's design. I like him a lot better with bigger, framed glasses.

I don't really know why I gave Claire a headset to talk on the phone. I guess I just didn't want it to be a boring phone phone phone set of panels. I have to spice things up sometimes.

So many different types of Kevins! I pride myself on the different costumes I'm able to put Kevin into. I feel like he's the only character I can do that for...I don't exactly know why...

We're gonna play a game. Every time you spot a mistake in the dialogue, take a drink. You'll probably be drunk in under 10 minutes...Panel 3's "Because of the..." should be "Because of that..."

Hey, Mary's in this arc!? Yep. I figured it might be cool if she made an appearance if they all went out to eat after Eric got off work. I guess I could've put Claire in the panel...BUT NO! I have other plans for her during this meeting at an unnamed restaurant. A couple pages ago, in the commentary, I mentioned that I didn't know if I liked Erica's hair completely behind her shoulders. I think I like how it turned out in this page, with just a little over the shoulder. Also, have I mentioned how much I love drawing Mary? Because she's one of, if not, my favorite character to draw.

Dominic finally hit a nerve with Eric. The thing about Eric is that, as he says, he rarely gets angry. Dominic has finally gotten everyone he works with angry. I also find it funny that even when he's angry, Eric still continues to call him Drips.

Everybody hates Dominic. I'm not a fan of how Eric's face came out in panel 4. I don't know. There's something about it that doesn't looks right. It's like he looks like he's asking a question rather than advising Dominic.

I like the fact that nobody but the immediate group of friends knows that Erica is a clone of Eric. It's subtly mentioned a few times but never fully explained. I don't know if I'm necessarily a fan of Erica's hair how it is. I mean, the style of it is fine, but I kind of want to go back to how it originally was with a bit over the shoulder. I don't know. I'll make up my mind sooner or later.

It's only in Panel 1 that you can really notice that Erica is a clone of Eric. Maybe, I only see it, but considering that I write and illustrate the comic, I notice small things like that and try to incorporate them in. I've explained this on a countless number of occasions that although Erica is a clone of Eric, their personalities differ extremely. I like to think that Erica is more impulsive and wild than Eric. Eric can sometimes act impulsive at times, however, he usually does it for the fun. Eric procrastinates, but everything always works out in the end for him. I would say Eric is a "voice of reason" for some characters. But, he's not. If anything, they're the voice of reason to him. But, its all about how the characters develop over time, and trust me, they will.

I tend to enjoy when Claire gets angry. Don't tell anyone, but she's one of my favorite characters.

I just wanted to point out that if you were keeping up with dates in the comic continuity, today November 7, would be the birth date of Erica.

I'm trying to make the characters subtly aware that in comic continuity, it's December 5th and they live in the midwest. Although, I am still not revealing the state of Marville. So, I give some of them jackets. The next couple of stories, for that matter, will take place in the month of December. I have 2 "filler" stories after this, then an Untitled 3rd Major Arc. I guess this can be considered an arc, but it's not a multi-month thing. If I had this schedule during HSP, I may still be on it right now. So, this story really isn't a major arc.

This is another example of a sketch I do the day before the actual comic page is drawn. I like to add notes for myself, like if I screw something up, do it sloppy, or can't think of meaningless dialogue. It's where all the brainstorming happens.

My crates are pretty crappy looking in panel 4. Just try to imagine that they're really great looking crates filled with an abundance of yet to be released comics. The 2nd box is bunch of comics tightly tied up to store the majesty.

The lighting is weird for the past couple of pictures. This shall be fixed. Anyway, I wanted to take the time to address an important issue. Remember that new schedule I talked about like a month ago? Yeah, well, that's being enforced starting today. I modified it, though. I'll put this in caps so that it's noticeable.
STARTING TODAY, THE COMIC WILL NO LONGER BE 1 PAGE A DAY. THE NEW SCHEDULE WILL BE....
NEW PAGE:
- EVERY MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY AND SUNDAY
- SKETCH ON SATURDAYS.

I like Eric's plan. In no way would it involve anybody dying in a gruesome or inhumane way.
Anyways, I wanted to address yesterday lack of page or sketch. For lack of better words, I was too exhausted to post anything yesterday and I didn't want to do a sketch. So, I just took the day off. I gave away a pint of blood, threw up and relaxed. It was a good day.

I wanted to address Dominic, because I haven't done it yet. Dominic is the same age as every other main character, even though he seems smaller and younger than the others. He's just not as tall. And he's not wearing scrubs, it's a deep V.

Now, I've still got to figure out exactly how the interior of the comic shop is because it always seems like the characters are in front of walls with comics on them. Never is there the entrance in. I should really start including that.

And finally, to wrap up our 3 day long sketch schedule, here's a self portrait. Yep, not too much is different about that picture from my actual self. I am wearing a Spider on my shirt because of my love for Spider-Man. Tomorrow is the cover page for the next story, then Friday, we move right into it.
