Image, Text and Story: An Exploration of Graphic Novels
That’s the title of the comic books class I am taking. So far it is my favorite class this semester, it’s too bad it only meets once a week for an hour.
What I posted here is our second assignment, which was to switch sketchbooks with someone else in the class, make up the title of a comic, and then write it in their sketchbook. Then we had to make a one page comic based off of that title. The one that I got was “Bigger, Faster, Stronger.” The one that I wrote for someone else was “My Baby’s Daddy.” Here’s the result:
I am probably only posting this because I am proud of the art. I had never really used crow quills before, and I feel like I handled them competently.
Anyway, our final big assignment is gonna be to write a fifteen page “graphic novella.” I think mine is gonna be about a noir-style detective with super powers.
