Comic

My thing isn't printing the way I want so here's my first draft pages. I'll bring in the hard copy, but, this looks better, I think. If it gives you the option to zoom, you should do so.

Wow this is really cool! I love the stark black and white cut out feel of it, very buisness-like, no nonsense graphics i suppose haha. I was just wondering about the missing upper right panel, and also, i was sligthly confused about the last bit; rob isn't the grandfather, right? but he was the one who was walked in on with the fax machine, so to speak? but i thought you said that was your grandfather/boss with the fax machine...perhaps im just reading it wrong.

anyway, i think its really great, and funny too. good job so far!

I agree with Jenell's comments. This is a great start to a solid graphic interpretation. The stark style and the "businessmen" fit perfectly with the tone that you capture throughout your print memoir. Yes, who is Rob? Perhaps show somehow that you were really young when you took this job. Also, it gets a little text-heavy towards the end. But, as Jenell stated...nice work!

Rob was the only other employee at this job, and later on, you'll notice he never leaves his chair. The bottom panel is just between the worker and the grandfather. Sorry for the confusion.
