How embarrassing, but I'm pretty much done with my first comic. Going to link to my patreon on the last page, which is also embarrassing, as I have no patrons. P-pls no bully.
That being said, it was an educational process. I really hate drawing comics apparently, and I especially hate writing dialog, but in the end I also sort of liked it. I think it's a strange twisted form of Stockholm Syndrome.
Any last minute criticisms or accidental typos or something?
