    Double-Tall Strips

    Wednesday, January 26, 2011 - 11:58 PM

    I realized, recently, that I've been creating a lot of double-tall strips rather than my normal, horizontal, 3- to 4-panel strips.

    It's interesting to notice, now that I have: Go back over the last two weeks, for example, and notice how many times I've done it.

    What is my subconscious trying to tell me, I wonder, that I'm creating bigger comics?
