It's finally here! And it's HUGE!!! I really, really like how this turned out. Especially the whole thing with Rinzler-Tron's face-eyeball thing and the bubbles. Not to mention all the glowy stuff. But anyways, sorry for all the text. There really is a lot of it. I wanted to kind of hint at what the plot's going to be about. The hardest part was probably figuring out how to paint unconscious Tron's helmet.

Also, because it's perhaps a little confusing, Flynn is the narrator in this one where Tron-Rinzler was the one in the last one. Also note the mystery person at the bottom. ;D I tested a TON of stuff in this one. Like the jitter functions and a trillion ways to blur things. Um, not much else to say. Let me know if you have any questions, it'll probably be a little confusing at first since the last four panels all literally happen one right after each other: Flynn does that magical thing to recall Clu back to himself, a mysterious somebody appears, and then kablooey! It also helps to listen to Daft Punk's "Flynn Lives".

I'm not a Tron fan (yet), but I really like your style in this comic thus far.


What I found really funny though is that I tried to start reading from right to left. 

Too much manga lately...

Thanks! You should check it out. I usually don't recommend/promote anything (except the 212th ) but Tron Uprising is definitely worth it. I think it's got a better story, music, voice acting, characters.....(I could go on for hours).It's really just a better show than Clone Wars.....0____0 And you know me. I practically worship clones!  


Haha, that's ok. I remember trying to read some manga or anime graphic novels and it took a little while to figure out that I was reading it backwards. Typical me.

Truthfully, the Clone Wars was mainly just impressive in terms of animation. By the end of season 3 (I think), the stories just began to lack what I look for in a good TV series. Nevertheless, I look forward to the bonus content that just recently aired in Germany. It's probably going to make me cry though because it pertains to Order 66. *shudders* My poor babies... I can't even. 


But yeah, I'm definitely adding Tron to my list of things that I need to watch. That list grows on a daily basis... Oops.

Oh my gosh yes. In that way I can't wait to get my books out there or have people read them. There's two sides to this 'Order 66' and there is always a way and a reason for everything.


Yus! You will not regret it. It's one of the few things I've ever seen that just single-handedly mind-blew me into it. Now I'm so hooked. I think the first episode is on youtube under like "Beck's Beginning" or something. I got the whole thing off of iTunes though. Totally worth it. 


I watched some of the SnK and thought it was pretty interesting. I only saw a few clips on youtube and the fight sequences were pretty well done! And of course the music was really interesting. Thanks for the tip!

It's funny that you mention SnK, as I just finished reading chapter 54 of the manga which came out recently. The fight sequences are definitely one of the strengths of the anime. Some of the characters are portrayed as well as they could be when compared to the manga, but other than that, the story is intriguing. 


Meh... I wish I had more time to do things, like be inspired by mind-blowing stories. But alas, school has got my hands tied. *sigh*

I'll have to check them out sometime. ;D I know right! School kinda ruins a lot of motivation and inspiration when it makes you work all the time. Today is like the first day in a very long time that I haven't had to work on homework at some point. Hopefully you get some more time soon!

Flynn Lives already plays mentally in my head while reading this.

nice page layout. dig the focal point frame. nice depth w. the sea of simulation. good call on the panels. if i have one recommondation. take your time and do solid dialog poxes and frames it will clean up the page a bit. keep up the awesomeness. i look forward to more

Thanks so much! Yeah, I agree. I was having some problems getting the layers to coperate with each other and still retain the desired effects. (the whole central panel was difficult because I wanted some of it's elements to wash into other panels but not others. ) I think for next time I'm going to do a separate file for each individual panel and then place them all together on a page. It'll definitely help with the layering of the panels and the clearness of the edges that you mentioned. Thank you for the tip.

Your drawing style is so pretty. It goes so well with this comic. Rinzler-Tron's eye is freaking awesome. And more glowy stuff. I look forward to seeing more of this!

Aw, I cannot thank you enough. Haha, I'm glad you think so too! I can't wait to work on the next page. Some lines are done and I'm going to attempt a new approach to imputing panels into the file (there were just too many layers and I was afraid GIMP was going to crash after a while. ).

Ooh, cool! Can't wait to see (XD That would've been horrible if it had!)!

It happened once when I was working on a drawing of Ryan and a Youngling they pick up on a planet being cute together. I almost cried.

Oh no! I know what that feels like though. My laptop shut down randomly and I lost all the progress I had on one of my drawings.
