Don’t Give In to Despair

Page 67 is here! Leeta and Amazing are in the underground portion of the labyrinth, and slowly winding their way back up to the daylight.

Amazing and Leeta underground

 

Things are about to get intense, starting on the next page. Check for it Friday!

On a related note, we didn’t post a new page last Friday. We needed to skip that day in order for Sam to get ahead on the artwork, and to give Sam time to prepare issue #2 (more on that in a second). I don’t regret skipping Friday, but I do regret that I didn’t make any kind of announcement about it.

When, on a few occasions, people have asked me for advice on drawing a web comic, I have always told them, “The most important thing is that you have to believe that your comic is important, even though it objectively isn’t.” So you set a release schedule, and you hit that release schedule. You treat each deadline seriously, even if it seems like no one in the world is reading your comic. Because even if no one else believes in your comic, you have to.

Last Thursday I thought about how I needed to write a post letting people know that we wouldn’t be updating on Friday. But my spirits were low, and I thought, “Why bother? No one reads the blog, and no one will notice if the comic comes out or not.” I gave in to despair. I broke my number one rule.

So I apologize to you, my hypothetical reader, but more than that I apologize to myself, and to the comic, for letting my devotion slip.

On a positive note, I’ll have more information on the print version of The Electric Team #2, tomorrow!

Space and Time

by leighton on March 9, 2016
Posted In: Uncategorized

GOOD LORD I have not posted on here in awhile. Sorry! But we’ve been updating with new comics pages, and that’s what really matters, right?

One of the things I’ve been doing instead of updating this blog is drawing. For instance, I drew a new illustration for the Seeing Calvino tumblr, and it looks like this:

The Form of Space small

You can see it better at the tumblr.

The illustration is based on a story called “The Form of Space.” It’s about three people falling, parallel to each other, through an endless void. Except it’s not really a void, and they’re not exactly parallel, because space has a shape to it, with bumps and ridges and indentations. I had a really hard time figuring out what to draw.

In other news, we’re finishing up the second print issue of The Electric Team. More on that soon.

How Much Shall We Bet?

by leighton on February 24, 2016

No new comics pages this week, but if you have a minute, pop on over to the Seeing Calvino tumblr. I posted a new illustration today. It’s called “How Much Shall We Bet?” and it looks like this:

How Much Shall We Bet small

I mean, it kind of looks like this. In real life it looks quite a bit different. It’s always hard to get the colors to look right, but this time my scanner was more obstinate than usual. I don’t know why it hated the blue I used for the symbols on the fellow on the right; in real life, they show up better. And the background is darker. And . . . never mind, I shouldn’t have mentioned it. It’s fine.
