NEVERMIND I NEED A NEW TITLE
These progress reports will most likely take different forms depending on what I've spent that month working on- whether it's general concepts, character design, website work, etc. They're not going to contain anything I think would spoil the comic for folks, but I do hope to provide an interesting look behind the scenes as I develop this idea.
The idea itself came to me on a long, solitary drive a couple years ago. Over the course of about two hours I figured out the entire "first draft" of the characters, setting, and so on. The original story was very dark, but as I've put more thought into it over the last six months or so it's gotten a little more comedic, which I think is a good thing. I'd be bummed out drawing something that was super serious 100% of the time.
Right now I don't have any notes or outlines- the whole thing is living in my head, just like QC does. But that's probably going to change over the next couple months as I pull things into working order- this is a much more complex setting and story I have in mind, and as such it's going to take more work.
I don't have a lot to offer this month, partly because we're still in the very early days, and partly because I honestly didn't expect to make that stretch goal! But in any case, now you at least know the comic's title. And I can tell you it doesn't take place in the QC universe, it isn't a romantic comedy with light sci-fi elements, and there are no robots in it. I'm aiming to update twice a week alongside QC, but I'm not going to commit to any set schedule until I have a few pages under my belt and know roughly how long they'll take to draw.
Oh, and I've included a picture of the main character, Alice. Say hello, Alice.
