I pumped out more comics in 2004, but I was still lazy. Note how much time passed between Domestic & Wild #2 and #3. No excuse for that.
Domestic & Wild #2 - Mom School
March 2004 | 15 pages
Like chapter one, chapter two's art starts off strong and then rapidly becomes quite bad by the end. It's also weakly written, as it doesn't move the plot very far along. Unfortunately, after I ended the comic, I forgot to save the pages, which were toned and lettered digitally. Sorry!
Swing
August 2004 | 15 pages | Read It Now
After almost two years, I finally entered the Rising Stars of Manga contest again (the fourth one). Apparently, this is based on a short story I wrote for school that I don't remember writing at all. The writing for this is, predictably, bad. But I think Swing was pretty significant, since I drew it fairly quickly - I think it was a week and a half - but the art was actually better than usual for what I did at the time. I also think this is when I began to really look for my own style.
Happy Thanksgiving
November 2004 | 1 page | Read It Now
This comic was for an art class, based on another short story (that I actually remember) for school; the assignment was a Thanksgiving drawing. Please note I did this in about ten, fifteen minutes. Total.
Domestic & Wild #3 - Man Hunting
December 2004 | 15 pages
After almost an entire year, I finally push out chapter three, only to realize that because of my terrible writing, this and chapter two were wasted space. I never draw chapter four, and end up restarting the comic. Again. Unfortunately, after I ended the comic, I forgot to save the pages, which were toned and lettered digitally. Sorry! And I'm very upset to say I didn't save the remake's pages, either; although I only did about ten pages, the art was a huge improvement.
