Oh My God, It's Full of Captions

As you can tell, clouds are now my new favourite PotatoShop feature. I think I'll set my next project in heaven so all the backgrounds are clouds. I think I stole that idea off Jhonen. The Manchester panel took hours. And hours and hours and hours. It's horribly detailed -- all the people are hand-drawn and everything. Expect lots of stories to coincidentally take place in Manchester. Right on that spot. With all the same people in the background every time.

The panel where Halifax and Holly are saying goodbye is just Mary and me when she had to leave for home the first time she visited. And it probably was the hardest thing either of us had to do. Except that time we were burying the kid and that policeman came past and we had to talk our way out of it.

Best bits: Manchester. Holly's traumatised face.
Worst bits: the size of the Manchester panel in the finished strip. Halifax's constipated/anally raped face.
