Description
I sacrificed five or so hours of sleep for this and I know it doesn't look that great, it's my first time with this sort of thing, so please don't be too rough.I'm not even that big a Beatles fan, but give me "Around the Universe" or John Lennon's proto-punk "Remember" over that sentimental swill any day.

Reminds me of Harvey Pekar's "American Splendor." Very ranty, nice. I actually do miss the Good ol' days sometimes though. . .

It's a wonderful start, better than I could do, ever. I don't have a strong feeling in my entire body.

that isn't the worst thing
and it isn't "better than you could do, ever". yer drawings are lovely and the leap from that to sequential art isn't anything besides one more drawing succeeding it.

Oh, this is great! I like your drawings and the overall message. Good stuff. There are some auto-bio comics I'd love to recommend to you.

The only one I can think of right off the bat is Booty. It's a self-published mini and I think you can get copies through [link] still. She's been doing it for several years. I've got a couple and they're great.
The drawings aren't amazing, but they're funny and honest as hell.
I'll have to dig through my collection for more picks though.

I finally looked at that site [Pander zine mailorder] and realized that I now have PayPal. what else is good from it, besides Booty?

My Life With Snakes was really good, but it doesn't look like she's carrying it anymore.

Haha, I love it Ed! Way to be original. That's your first comic? Well by all means, why don't you just take the money you'll get from being a famous comic artist now, its obvious that you've got a good start.

thank you very much
but, "why don't you just take the money you'll get from being a famous comic artist now"?
that would... require... a time machine... or something
