I like how you transitioned back to the prophecy...it's very dramatic.
I love it. I can see this turning into a movie. I would direct it if I could.

I loved this page! Yes, I know its the death of Eden's mother but I love how you created it. It's also very realistic how the daughter is just standing at the door not really coming in to see the corpse of her mother. THe word 'Innocence' comes to mind.

Edan just looking there at his mother is so... Dramatic! I can imagine him thinking of the last words his Mother told him.

I love the prophetess... she looks pretty cool... and sorta reminds me of one of the chicks from Atlantis... ya know, the disney movie...? anyways, once again, I love the fact that the red stands out so much and that the blood splatter looks sorta semirealistic... I'm wondering, are their children going to take revenge on their deaths?... no! don't spoil it! acck... can't wait for more...

I like the prophetess too. Her name is Citla, and she definitely has lots of 'airtime' later.

The children will have roles to play later, whether they have anything to do with revenge or not, I won't say.

lol! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far!
I'm updating this particular issue every day, and the next issue we'll see- I haven't even started the final drawings of it, though, so it'll probably be a month until it's finished and ready for people to see.

I liked the spot color, too.
1- coloring all these pages would be a pain.
2- I like black and white.
3- spot color is supah dramatic.

I love the second panel, and i like that in a way, you're explaining what's happening. I understand that explaining it all at once can be boring, but i've been reading a few fics where you don't understand ANYTHING, simply because that's the idea of the author, to actually be inmersed in a world, and try to understand it as if you were part of it, without having any backstory.

I don't know if that made sense, (english not being my first language and all), but, believe me, it drives me crazy, and makes me want to stop reading. So yeah, i like this page

Anyways, this are my 2 cents, hope it helps

I'm glad that it's coming across clearly to you Yeah, confussion for viewers/readers is good on some level, but people need to be able to understand the world they are immersed in, so I'm trying to set up the world in as clear a way as I can, as well as set up future plots etc.

I think you made sense
And yay! Thanks for posting such a detailed comment!

PalomaDyz In reply to Hillnerd [2008-03-19 04:07:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad it was understandable hahaha.
Oh, and by the way, i really like the black and white pages with some spice of color, it really makes it more interesting. Plus, you can focus the attention of the reader to whatever you want, and actually comunicate more.
I think it would be cool to not only use red (for blood or whatever), but other colors, like blues, greens, etc, for eyes, some stuff, whatever. I've actually seen this in another fic:

[link]

It's cool, because when there's a lot of charas, or when they look a bit like eachother, or simply to make them more memorable, you give them a touch of color.
I like the resource this fic used, but, ironically enough, it's the same fic that it's not understandable.

Anyways, i think i rambled enough

I hope to see more of your fic

what?! oh and i liked her too.

and there always has to be one mommy death doesn't there?

let me guess (though you don't have to respond since maybe it'd spoil something) but i'm going to say that one of the kids is this "shard"... probably edan (nice name btw).

the red gives it a nice splash of color and adds impact.

Hillnerd In reply to BubblyBoo [2008-03-17 07:26:55 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, Aurelia is very cool. I'm a bit evil, but it all has a point (that and I like tragedy on many levels).

No, the shard isn't a person. It's slightly explained in the upcoming pages, though.

I'm glad you like his name Naming characters is so much fun, even though it can be a hastle finding the right fit.

BubblyBoo In reply to Hillnerd [2008-03-17 07:32:43 +0000 UTC]

ah well tragedy does build character which can be great (unless of course, someone takes the emo/whiny path of vengence... bleh)

and i just realized that i actually missed the fourth page of this...

its just like jkr said about killing off remus and tonks: "every war has to have its orphans"
