Issue 1 – Page 06

… and the “Journey begins”. ;)

On this page you can see Ringo, Maya’s best friend, for the first time. I know for some hard sci-fi- and superhero-readers the appearance of a teddy can be a little confusing… but it will make sense in the end. Believe me :)

Please let me know what you think.

Best wishes,

Chris

    I like it ..reminds me of “mice” ;) Don’t do JK Rowling ok:P

    • Chris

      I hope “mice” isn’t like him… really! :)

      What exactly do you mean by “Don’t do JK Rowling”… I could use some of her money, you know? ;) hehe
      If you mean Harry Potter magic I can tell you this is a Sci-Fi story without magic! It doesn’t look like it for now but you have to believe me.

        what i mean by “doing a jk rowling” is .. killing off the characters that you learn to love .. she did a big character massacre (thats what i call it) in her last book .. oh, the humanity!!! lol Its 7 books and you get attached to the characters … and yes she killed my favorite .. Chapter 4 The Seven Potters..i went through the 5 stages of grief ..seriously ..lol

        BUT, i wish you all the best and MAYA .. with a bit of luck (wish i can make those liquid luck potion they make in Hogwarts) who knows ..maybe you and your comic will be the next best thing .. It can happen :)

    Very interesting, I’ll bookmark and check back regularly.

    • Chris

      Fantastic!
      That’s exactly why I’m doing it :)

    Wonder where it’s all heading. Do these storys all meet up at some point?

    • Chris

      Of course! Everything is one big story :) … but I can’t tell you where it’s heading yet ;)
      Thx for reading Maya!

    Hi, Chris. I read through the pages you posted at Newsarama. I owe you an apology. I didn’t realize until I scrolled to the bottom of the page that you were a professional who had done TALES FROM THE CRYPT. So if my comments seem a little harsh, I am so sorry. But I tried to be extremely honest.

    Anyway, I love your art (even though I do think your dialogue needs some work). Hope you won’t hold it against me. Keep me posted on your work; you’re obviously very talented and I like your ideas!

      Hi Jericho,

      wow! Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. I really appreciate it! All your information and that you have taken the time to write it all down is awesome! You don’t owe me an apology for writing such detailed comments btw :)

      Unfortunately I’m not a native speaker. I’ll think about a dialog rework for the print editions later down the road and of course I’m trying to make the new text for upcoming pages better.

      Thanks again!

      I hope you are in for the long run!?

      Best wishes,

      Chris

    Teddy bear = cute
    Teddy bear that talks = creepy
    Teddy bear that talks and wears clothes = strange
    Teddy bear that talks and wears clothes and carries a sword on its back = AWESOME.

    • Chris

      Sooo… this means you will love the next pages ;)

      Thank you!

      Best,

      Chris
