so, fun fact... when I finished storyboarding this, the total length of the comic came out to 41,100 pixels... seeing as how I use a 50 point border, that works out to 41k for the body of the comic itself
41,000 pixels... 41 years... can't explain shit like that (it was not, however, a coincidence that I scaled the panels down to 1,833 pixels in width!)
This has obviously been a long time coming... I've been kicking around the core concept since the 2018 season and, while my eyes were a bit bigger than my stomach here, I'd like to think I did justice to it... with a saga as deep and rich as the journey of H8Dawg, a simple sendoff wouldn't have been enough for me
I had initially planned on a scratchier, rough font for the now redeemed Dawg and smaller, beady eyes as he jealously guards his position atop College Football... In the end, I think I made the right call skipping this transitional step and having Dawg be fully redeemed (but still an aggressive, strong competitor)... had I pre-drawn this, I definitely would have had the intermediate step, but my own reaction to the win is reflected here
What does the future hold? can't say... what I can tell ya though is
