Another stab at comic book magnum opus

Seeing as some are intrigued about it, here's another 19 pages worth of forgotten ambitions I once had.

Hey, they're not bad at all. You should use them as a guide to do completed versions.

I should. Looking back, I can tell how weak this was in places. I find I'm a good idea man but not a writer. I otherwise find an interest in the most sardonic view of things in how I chose to view school life in this piece. Of course I'm also cribbing the usual manga tropes here and there and try adding in things you wouldn't expect to see like that little climber doing up the panel on one page. I think there was an effort in trying to put as much detail while remaining simple in the layout, though most of the backgrounds seen here I got out of memory of the one or two schools I've been in, so it made it easier putting these ideas into a story ("write what you know" they would say).

Have a brilliant Christmas and 2014, Chris. Hope you got everything you were looking for.
