Hey, I did this quick, crappy scan right before I headed to class and now the internet is down in my room! So, here's what I've got so far, and I'll post more when I have the chance.

I decided to just work straight with my brush pen and go as fast as I could, because otherwise I'd spend waaaaaay too much time on each comic (I'm a terrible stickler in my drawings). As a result, you can see a few places where I screwed up, and my lettering might not be too clear. Here's what they say.

12:43
1/(Reading Wimbledon Green)
I don't like this as much as It's a Good Life, If You Don't Weaken...but man does it make me want to draw comics.
2/Too bad I have to start my homework now.
3/But I procrastinate another half hour!

1:54
1/Oh! Here's my prom pictures!
(Laura)
(Laura came up to hang out.)
2/Uh oh! It's almost 2! I better keep better track of time today...
Also, use my brush pen to draw instead of a pencil.

2:34
1/(I finally start my homework.)
2/Eh...good enough. I'll do more tomorrow.

Hope you like my day so far! This has been really fun already!

Here's some better scans, and the next three. I'll post them as I scan them. Smile

1/(Spend 40 minutes lying in bed before I get up.)
2/(Thank god my roommate spent the night at a friend's.)
I wonder if I should've drawn a comic for when I woke up, looked at the time, and went back to sleep.

8:29
1/Wish I had Wimbledon Green to read now...
2/The art on these last few comics is pretty bad.

9:42
1/Can I borrow your eraser?
Sure, go ahead.
Thanks.
2/She's pretty cute.

Silverpoint is really boring.
2/Oh no! I'm out of coke! I need my caffeine...

2/Come on! At least get out of the way so I can leave!
(But he didn't.)

1/(Dicking around on the internet...)
(The internet is down in my room so I have to sit in the lobby.)
2/(I feel guilty because I haven't drawn my Crown Commission jam panel yet.)
Yikes, I need to finish that...

SFX: type type

Firefly has all my favorite parts of Star Wars, ie Han Solo, and none of the crappy parts, ie, Luke Skywalkers.

Klingon!
Elvish!
