More Daily Tests
So, after last week the general consensus was that breaking up a single strip into four daily strips didn't work. Scott A. suggested two more things to try.
1. That I try one more time to fit my full four panel comics within a daily strip footprint.
And
2. That I try to actually produce one strip a day for awhile, just to see how that flows.
I was dubious of both ideas, but I swore to myself at the start of this project that I would keep an open mind.
I tried one, "How to answer the unanswerable" and it looked like legal fine print with some tiny drawings thrown in. Looking at it, it did occur to me that I wasn't entirely happy with the 3rd panel's joke anyway, so I cut it. The result is below.
Adams and I quickly agreed that this "Write four panels and drop the weakest" plan was worth exploring. Below are the next two day's comics.
Any comments? I'd welcome your opinions.
