Mike Russell was one of the first people to express interest in my work after I started sharing my artwork publicly on the internet in early 1996 and over the years I've done a number of art projects for him featuring his signature character, Vicki Fox. This is the most recent effort which is for the continuing webcomic adventures that Vicki and company are involved with.
The direct link to the comic is here: http://www.vickifox.com/Comics/index.php?728 and from there you can read through the rest of the storyline and see all that Vicki is about.
This is also one of my first attempts to utilize the Open Canvas software for drawing the whole comic digitally. I normally draw with pencil and paper but Open Canvas has allowed me to be a bit more flexible and polished in my roughs and as a result this comic came together a bit better looking and faster than it might have if I'd followed my older techniques.

The question is from a Harcourt Second Grade English text book.
The "naming part" is roughly the entire subject clause - who or what is involved.
The "telling part" is roughly the entire verb clause - what the naming part is doing or having done to it.
For example, "The cat ate a mouse" would be divided into the naming part, "The cat", and the telling part, "ate a mouse".

As shown in the "School Days" story, Vicki actually has a Computer Science degree. She is working at a magazine as the "science/technology reporter".
As the old joke highlighting the poor language skills of most engineers relates -- "Once I couldn't spell engineer, now I are one".

Ouch... I think I just sprained several hundred neurons and/or synapses trying to figure the answer to that -- if the object is, in fact, to identify the naming or telling part of the sentence: "Identify the naming or telling part of this sentence." Looking at it, I'm not even sure it can be done (Who am I kidding? It probably can be done, I just can't figure it out!)... And to reiterate, OUCH! I think something in my brain went "SPROING!" trying to figure it out as I was typing this...
You know what? The answer will probably come to me right in the middle of the night, as I'm trying to drift off to sleep. It always seems to happen that way with me...
