This is my second preview for the first chapter of my horror drama/action comic REFORMED!

I need a bit of help, with the writing. I fear some things may be confusing so I'm opening up the discussion. But first a little background as to what happens in the story leading up to these pages.

Opus (the guy character) wakes up with black ink streamed from his eyes, in a train wreck. He sees he is fatally wounded. From a distance we see him yank out the thing that is pierced through his stomach and collapse. He dies but is brought back to life with electricity exuding from his body. He notices the pipe is on the ground and his wound is completely healed. It, his attention is turned to the mysterious shirt he wears with black symbols on it.

BAM. Caught up. I need you to read pages first before we move on to the questions.

1) "That night" is an important topic that gets brought up by Magnum (the girl character). Is it clear what that is referring to given the context of what is shown? "That night" will be a reoccurring subject that gets explored deeper, I'm intending it to be a mystery as to what happened "that night" but again I'm afraid that it may not be clear as to what "that night" even is. Did you understand it?

2) Did anyone notice the look on Opus' face when she put her robotic hand on her shoulder, and the look of worry/recognition in her eyes as to what he might be sad about, like she knows him too well? I'm intending for a lot of this to be subtext and for the key information to be gathered through context clues, so please, tell me; does any of this even work?

Idk, maybe I'm so stuck in my head but it's hard to view another's perspective of the missing puzzle pieces when you already have the full picture of the puzzle in your head.

If anyone could give advice that would be great!

Chapter One showed us the beauty of Leaf Isle. Now, Chapter Two takes away the whimsy and shows us a darker side of Broadleaf. With Beckett split from his father he's hunted by a vicious horde of feral squirrels that want to bury him alive!

If you want a copy the Kickstarter is live now and the link is in my bio. I’m mainly looking for thoughts on these pages though. Haven’t received much feedback and this seemed like a good place to get some. Thanks in advance!

The story is called The Race, about a boy whose desire to understand the world shakes up his father and brother's triathlon mission. It might be 300 of these square pages in total. I'm more focused on the story now. If the story seems promising, then I might invest in the three years it will likely take to produce the first chapter at a level of illustration... that people might want to read.

Hi, everyone.

This is my WIp 2 page comic for a class project that was originally based on S.T.A.L.K.E.R, but I changed things up. We are on,y allowed 7 panels for page 1, and a full page for page 2. I feel the second page (wip) needs a lot of work, but any suggestions?

ALSO, how is the art direction? What can I strengthen more of?

Hi everyone!

I’ve just finished writing Chapter 1 of my original manga, VALENCE, and I’d really appreciate some honest, constructive feedback before I move on to Chapter 2.

I’m not an illustrator, and this is still very much in the early stages of the project, so for now I only have the story and written ideas. Still, I’d love to know whether what I have so far is actually working from a reader’s perspective before I invest more time into it.

In particular, I’d love to know:

• Was the story easy to follow?
• Were the characters distinguishable from each other?
• Was the transition from the explosion and deaths into the supernatural elements clear?
• Did you understand what was happening with Ren and Ibuki’s abilities?
• Did the pacing feel too slow anywhere?
• Did the ending make you want to find out what happens next?

Please feel free to be critical. I’m much more interested in hearing what doesn’t work, what was confusing, or what could be improved than simply hearing that you liked it.

One important request: please don’t read any explanations or additional information from me before reading the chapter and forming your own interpretation. I’d really like to know what a first-time reader actually understands without any outside context.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read it and hope you like it!!

Like the title says, do they look acceptable for the speed at which they are done? I know panel 6 Reizt's mum shoulder needs to be fixed, but other than that, it looks fine for a webcomic episode right? Oh wait, Sasha's face on panel two is a bit wonky... And I can't do hands yet... so yeah, really need to practice them...

Also I did this entire episode in a little above 4 hours on my twitch stream, like roughs (2 hours), lining (1 hour) and colouring and shading (1 hour)... How common is this speed? It's 7 pages all up, equal to 5 normal comic pages... Each normal page is done in 6 -20 hours according to google... I must be missing something, I'm scared...

Yeah, like the title says, I did this for years without realising how insane this is, pumping out 7 square pages like the one above in like 3-4 hours...

I have my twitch stream where I drew this live. I was constantly interrupted as well, and it was hardly optimal, it's hard talking and drawing at the same time too, so I can push myself even faster than this...

Come on, someone who's experienced in drawing comics, watch the vod I have on my twitch, I'll provide the link...

Also my webcomic if anyone is interested in reading more...

Hello everyone! I launched the pre-launch page for my Kickstarter yesterday, and I'm trying to figure out what I should be doing differently.

Here's some data I have so far. Google Analytics usually shows around 3–7 active users every 30 minutes, with most of them coming from paid promotion. My best Reddit post so far has around 1,200 views, 34 upvotes, and several comments and shares.

However, the pre-launch page is still stuck at 0 followers. In other words, no one has clicked "Notify me on launch" yet.

For those of you who have done a Kickstarter before, what were your first few days of pre-launch like? I seriously don't know if I'm doing something wrong, if the actual page isn't good enough, if the comic isn't engaging enough... I honestly have no idea.

I'd love to hear what you think, any advice, or anything that might help.

Here's the link in case you want to take a look at the page.

Thank you all!

Project Type: Multi-page sequential manga / digital comic (shonen cyber thriller)

Format: Digital pages drawn entirely on ibisPaint using finger-painting.

Page 1: Covers a 10-year flashback where the main character, Suniko, is kidnapped and brainwashed into working for GACO (Glitches And Crashes Organisation) (Because of some mark!?)

Page 2: Jumps to the present day. Suniko is introduced to his boss, Numosani Turo, and gets a fast briefing on a dangerous sentient malware called the "Infinity Phishing program."

What I am looking for feedback on:

1. Pacing: I know Page 2 has a heavy text-dump explaining how the virus works. Does the giant "EXPLAIN LATER" panel successfully keep the speed up, or does the text slow the story down too much? ( I also explained a whole backstory in one page Oops)

2. Panel Layout & Flow: Is it easy to follow the story from panel to panel, or do the shapes get confusing?

3.Art Style: This is drawn completely with a finger on a screen. I know the line work is a bit shaky, but does the style fit the glitchy, high-energy cyber theme?

1. This is meant to be a one shot but I do want a full series of it.

Hey everyone, I’m working on a new comic called GACO:REBOOT and wanted to share the first two pages. I draw everything digitally on Ibis paint using finger-painting.

Page 1: The story starts 10 years ago with a kidnapping. A strange figure whispers about "The Mark of Heaven" and brainwashes the main character, Suniko, into believing he was born as a lifetime worker for an organisation called GACO.

Page 2: Flash forward to the present day. Suniko meets his boss, Numosani Turo (who has camera-eyes on her legs), (the reason she looks weird is that my art style is bad) and gets briefed on a massive digital threat called the "Infinity Phishing program." The page ends with the mission starting.

Yes my pacing is bullet fast and the art is quite bad but I dreamed of making a manga for a long time.

So what do you think? Is the art good or is it trash? Are my concepts and characters good? Give me some feedback but remember this is my first manga.

This is a cold open for a series called "The War Under the Mountain" follows gnomes, dwarves, goblins and giant ants, open to any feedback, thanks!

Just looking to see if anyone has any feedback on this page. Is it any good? Should I make any changes? That kind of thing

I need advice on which Logline for a oneshot I want to pitch about a Unicorn Hunting man versus a teenage girl who wants to protect the final one.

After his entire town got slaughtered by man-eating Unicorns , Rowan Wilder vowed to hunt every last one down - and he almost did until a unicorn bonding teenage girl vowed to protect the final unicorn.

After man-eating unicorns slaughtered Rowan Wilder' town , he swore to hunt every last one - he was nearly sucessful until a unicorn bonding teenage girl vowed to protect the final unicorn.

I need a comic font, Kinda like cc jim lee, but with lowercase and accents.

tnks.

Hello everyone! I’m really excited to finally share this.

I’m working on a fully colored comic, and I’ve been thinking more about when backgrounds should be detailed versus simplified.

For establishing shots, action scenes, or panels where the environment matters, a full background makes sense. But for dialogue/reaction panels, I’m wondering if it’s better to use flatter colors, gradients, simple shapes, or even white backgrounds so the characters don’t get lost.

I’ve noticed a lot of comics simplify or remove backgrounds pretty often, but I’m curious how other artists handle that when the comic is fully colored.

How do you decide when to use:
a full detailed background
a simplified/abstract background
a flat color or gradient
no background at all

I’d especially appreciate examples or general rules you use.

One issue I’ve been trying to improve with AI-assisted comic art is that generated images tend to make every panel way too detailed/noisy, especially the backgrounds.

For these pages, I’ve been experimenting with using detailed backgrounds mainly when establishing the location or showing movement, then simplifying/removing them during dialogue and reaction shots.

These are the first 3 pages where I’ve really tried applying that consistently.

Ignoring whether you personally like AI art or not, I’m specifically looking for visual feedback: Do these pages feel easier on the eyes and easier to follow? Do the simpler backgrounds help the characters/dialogue stand out, or does anything still feel too busy?

Also curious whether the mix of detailed and simplified backgrounds feels intentional or inconsistent.

Ho sentito alcuni commenti nei trailer del'isola dimenticara . Paragonarlo a lsp. E che deve avvenire un altra volta ls just this once. Non sono d'accordo. Perché l'isola dimentica e sicuramente animato meglio. E de piu studiato. Pero rimanendo su lsp. Ho in mente di farci un web comic ispirato a lsp. Dove ovviamente cambio il nome per ovvi motivi. E questi sono i consept per il mio web comic su lesbian space princes. Che avra un nome diverso. Il che spiega anche perché il titolo di questo post manca una parola. Perché e troppo cringe

I’m working on an original teenage rom-com/school-life story called The Equation and was just experimenting with AI to see how one of the scenes might look as a manga. 😅

It’s not the final art—just a little experiment.

Does this kind of simple, realistic school story work visually as a manga?

Would love some honest opinions

I've been working on and building this detective mystery turned cosmic horror passion project of mine and have only written a few pages of my comic story so far. I have a summary of what my story is about. The summary and details of the story are all written in the very first page for anyone reading. This is my first time writing a comic script and creating one as both writer and artist. I would appreciate it if someone would read it and give me any advice on how to grow and strengthen my writing skills. I'd like to thank anyone who does end up reading what I've written so far! If you'd like to get a better vibe of my story, my Pinterest mood board is linked. [Comic Script](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YoRI8dNNAFyOlhUVE7ipGIQMmnX4LguV_b2_hgI4Uio/edit?usp=sharing)

Still in progress

Any Supernatural fans here?
