This site is kind of a dry run and a testbed of ideas of my new comic. This is not the permanent home of Eyes of Solace, but it is easy enough to manage at the moment, and since I fight with technology all day, I kind of do not want to fight with it when I am relaxing.
As for the stories and characters, this comic is going to be highly autobiographical after a fashion.
What it will not be another comic by a twenty-something about drinking, being poor, and sexual escapades. They say to write what you know, so I will write about the jokes, fantasies, dreams, beliefs, and friends that get this half crazy antisocial grad student though the day. By the way, this is not intended to be a comic about grad school. If you want one, then go to www.phdcomics.com This is also, not a comic about being a nerd. There are plenty of those on the web as well.
A list of characters is coming this weekend. They are based on some of the best people from my life. As for updates, they will happen when I feel like doing them, so no promises. Finally, the comics themselves. Hopefully they will be funny and endearing. Since I believe that hitting the ground running is the only way to get something started, I will be working on the artwork as I go. Finger crossed here people. I took my last art class in high-school.
I suppose I should address my policy on intellectual property. EDIT: see legal page for creative commons license.
