Please forgive the lateness of this post, but I’m afraid that during this arc, most of the comics will be up a little later than I’d like.

So here’s Part 2 of the current story, a section that hopefully provides a few answers, and raises a few more questions. Kudos to the members of the forum that correctly guessed “Headmaster Hand” would be running the school!

This entire segment was quite difficult: I’m not great at drawing big crowd scenes or interior locations, so there’s definitely been a bit of a “learning curve” thus far in this comic. I did, however, pick up a couple of great books over the winter holiday several weeks ago: Scott McCloud’s “Understanding Comics” and “Making Comics”, both of which are spectacular for anyone interested in creating their own comics. Thanks to these books, I’m in the process of picking up a few more techniques through comic creation that I’ve tested out in this very storyline.

Let’s shoot for late Tuesday for the next update. I can’t guarantee anything, but I can promise you I’ll be spending a heck of a lot of time trying to get it there!
