This week, I decided to try something I had not attempted in a long time: a comic page. I used to draw some comic pages for fun when I was younger, mainly inspired by series like Peanuts, or Garfield, or Calvin and Hobbes. Of course, if I tried to make jokes I read from those comics, I seemed to miss the point, so I cannot say my older comics were very good. Still, it is a neat application for artwork, so I may try my hand at them occasionally.
I wanted to practice at comics in case I ever decided to travel that route, but I did not want to try something too big yet. Therefore, this week, I decided to finally draw out a Pokemon comic I had in my head for a while. If you want to know what inspired this, click below, but for now...
You may notice that of all games in the series, I picked Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Why is that? Part of it was that, despite popular fan opinion, I actually like these ones in particular. Platinum might even be my favorite version of the game yet. I understand that it has some issues, but I really liked a lot of the new Pokemon introduced in those ones, and I liked how diverse much of that region's landscape was, even if there were some annoying sections to it.
That should probably be all I say about this one. As the Joker once said, "If you have to explain the joke, then there is no joke." Maybe you understand it, maybe you missed it. I would like to try my hand at more comics in the future, especially now that I have downloaded an appropriate font for them.
