  1. Ryan, your sense of timing is excellent. I’m really enjoying this storyline… I look forward to reading the whole thing collected when you complete it.

  2. Loops says:

    First off, this is hilarious.

    Second, I really like the understated artwork in the first 3 panels, especially the way the background shading seesaws up and down. Good visual echo of your mental state going from quizzical to relieved to uncertain.

  3. Ryan Dow says:

    Thanks Steve!

    To Loops – I got the idea about the background shading from reading a tutorial on nemu nemu (http://www.nemu-nemu.com/2008/07/26/tutorials_the_process_2008.php). In it the creator talked about using shadows and vague shapes to guide the reader’s eye. It’s a really cool idea that I want to experiment more with in the future.

  4. Jon Sloan says:

    Interesting how Carl goes from talking about how Ryan is hunched, implying that he wants to rub his shoulders/back, and now it’s his feet…..things that make ya go hmmmmmm.

    I agree with what Loops said, the background changes do match the mood very well.

  5. Bud Burgy says:

    im starting to get creeped out.

  6. stapledanno says:

    Doe spanel one imply Ryan would like to get stoned with Carl or that he thinks Carl wants to get Ryan stoned?

    Personally, I think ryan is hiding a very sizable bong collection from us all.

  7. I agree with Danno. Perhaps minors should hit YOU up for drugs.

  8. Ryan Dow says:

    It’s for my Glaucoma! I swear!

  9. McCarthy says:

    You can’t pass up a good old-fashioned foot massage. You’d have to be out of your mind.
