Comic Strips

This assignment introduced me to the art of storytelling in a daily format. The challenge with this type of strip is that it is important to include four elements each day:

  • Recap the previous story
  • Advance the plot
  • End on a cliffhanger
  • Maintain visual interest
I decided to pick up the story right after the comic book pages. But I ended up making a tiny little error....

As you can see, I made too many strips! Now, the interesting thing about Sunday strips: sometimes they wrap up the previous week's plot, and other times they tell a totally different story! I decided that I'd keep the story going, with Twigg's introduction, and then show him getting into trouble.

I also decided to try and add a little subtle humor to the Sunday strip. It wasn't as clear as I hoped though...but some people got the joke...did you?

An interesting note...this series introduces most of the team members (except for Valetta, who I hadn't created at the time) and you may notice the villain is named Oombar...which of course is now the name of a team member!
