Ok so Ubisoft didn’t literally write it, but it did pretty much write itself…

I have a sort of vision in my head of the way things ought to be, and sometimes I let that take over a project, or worse, a hobby. Even with the Flash shortcuts we took because of my rusty hand/drawing-skills, all of it — the sound editing, lip syncing, music, credits…. animation itself… simply takes too long for my schedule. Let’s call our cartoons 10-15 hours of work per toon, to be conservative.

Webcomics are great, but… I just mentioned rusty hand-skills, right? So I did something I want you to try: Go to any successful webcomic that’s already out there, and click the little button that says “first.” Are you impressed with what you see? Now click back to the “latest.” Compare. Everybody starts somewhere.

I’m hoping to simultaneously start that journey, and keep this place humming along. I think making webcomics will be better than the cartoons because I’m doing this to focus on bettering myself  — and in the process, if I entertain, well… great. Three hours I can find in a night, 10-15 hours I can’t find in a month without some serious sacrifices. And so… webcomic it is.
