“Death is the Road to Awe” by Clint Mansell (This song sums up the comic perfectly)

Here’s my comic for the Fortune event in Org-Infinitus. I know it’s not my best work, but I’ve been going through an awful art block lately, and I just hate everything I’m doing. All of this was done on the spot, with almost no ideas, or sketching. Most of it was random freehand inking. Also no dialog, ‘cause, I’m deep like that (not really).

So we dive into Nel’s past a little. I really don’t want to give away much of when he was a somebody, so if you don’t get it, that’s the point. Nel hardly gets it. But his time in the Org is hinted too, like when he used to be a superior and failed. Poor kid hasn’t had the best life. Ohman. But yeah, I have a little figured out for Nel’s past as a somebody, but it’s all kind of up in the air still, and if he doesn’t remember most of it, I probably won’t reveal it. Just know it’s sad, and he lost people he tried to save.

This comic is really blah. I don’t like much about it, and inverting it was actually a mistake, but I liked how it looked, so it stuck. Also drawing the creepy ass dinosaurs… ohman, fuckin’ creepy. But I think it works, since Nel’s power is to control them, and no one should be able to in the first place, so there is worry in the back of his mind all the time, that it might backfire and he could just be swarmed and eaten. Why is this so much darker than I intented it to be? I don’t know. Well, I’m done. And I’ll try and move on to fix my art block (if anyone has any tips, feel free to help).
