something I am grateful for today
Soothing music... to help ease my spirits (and my headache) when I'm feeling rough.

aiming for the stars
My goal from Day One with Space Kid! was for it to be published in hardcopy like Scott Pilgrim, so I used Scott as a template: I chose the size of my original art to reduce down to the same sized page as the Scott books, etc.
Today, while taking stock of my progress, I noted that Scott #1 is 168 pages long. A quick eyeballing tells me that it's probably the thinnest of the six volumes. I'm thinkin that too much shorter/thinner than that will make my book look insubstantial and not worth investing in, perhaps.
So: by the time I finish Episode Three of SK, I will have 115 pages. Not quite good enough. After Episode Four, I will have 177. Fair enough.
Ergo, after I finish drawing Episode Four, I can start shopping it around to publishers. Maybe the first stop on my itinerary should be Oni Press... :P
