More from fmirsokp
The second (and first also) “issue” of my comic books can now be ordered from http://www.indyplanet.us/bimshwel
Features 36 needlessly dense pages, artwork superior to my photography and NO DOPES (as of this point in time)
Of course it can still be browsed for free also on the internet, but people on the internet are peculiar sometimes so I offer both options to them.
ALSO: if you exist outside the federated republic of United Statia and want this for some reason but think the international shipping cost is beyond reason (I sure do), please contact me directly and I can send one to you through rinkety dinkity postal mail, though not necessarily immediately since this is a fairly stupid time of year to try and mail things.

Sure go ahead. Please say whatever comes to you! It has likewise been difficult for me to get much sense of what many people think of this. Especially on the internet of 2018. If people don't see something that is immediately blatantly relatable or inadvertently reminiscent of their favorite paraphilia on the most recent page, they won't look closer, and in neither case will they actually go to the beginning and attempt to grasp the full context. Usually.
It is sadly true: i love to use words. However, much of the extraneous and mildly out-of-character dialog early on was kept in through an obsessive compulsive obligation to the original scrappy version from 2001ish (http://bimshwel.com/ope/aaa.htm), before I had any trace of a "plan." I did not start splitting over-crowded pages into multiple parts until the second section, but I still hate to waste space. Knowing that the printing price goes up for every additional page also makes me want to cram more into a smaller space. It can be a struggle! I want to fill every bit of space and say all things that I think of. And then end up thinking of a few more things and trying to force them in.
Thank you for the encouraging words! I know at least one person mentioned Maxx to me before so I am familiar with that to a degree. I do not have nearly the rendering skill to do that but over time I found ways to emphasize what I can do somewhat well, and it at least looks like I specifically made it.
I have no skill with social commentary because I do not understand why anybody does anything. I put that into the pathetic snake comics so i do not risk detracting from an otherwise moderately functional whole if I screw it up or a topic becomes outdated.
In fact at the point of the first "issue" here, there is no story, but what happens is relevant to what probably will be the story eventually. Figuring out how the characters relate to each other influenced how I proceeded, and I was unable to guess how they would before I did it.
I had always thought of kumquat (the white-ish creature) as the protagonist of this section, and the lizard as an incidental element which was worth following up on later, but acknowledge that kumquat behaves in an antagonistic manner and am intrigued by this interpretation. I made the character less prominent later when that sort of behavior seemed like a less good use of any sensible person's time (I used to act like Kumquat on the internet and had about as many friends as now but plenty more foes). I am glad that it can read as a proper antagonist so much later, rather than a protagonist written by a maladjusted person!
