It's not that hard.
Sometimes I find people who ask me how can they buy comic books, because they don't know how to do it, or maybe the shop where they bought them when they were kids is closed, or maybe they've just never bought them before. We like to be helpers, so the FML team created a flow chart.
Making of:
Getting to that image hasn't been easy, we started from this diagram that Kelly Sue made (to tell the truth, it was perfect and there was no need to go beyond, but, you know, I like drawing).
Starting there I created a double page spread document (maybe we could print it one day, who knows) and arranged the items, you know, the hard part was already done so I only had to make it look cute. I thought it would be a good chance to show all the main characters from FML.
(In the last image you can see that we tried to use the texture of the Portland International Airport carpet, but there were legal issues that prevented us from using it so we desisted.)
Once that everything was set I felt that something wasn't working, it didn't read properly… I thought that the problem was the very "noisy" background and I tried different options, but I wasn't able to identify the problem. Then's when I called my comics guru, David Lafuente, who in a moment identified the problem and gave me the solution. Lafuente, you're the best.
"I would throw away all the lettering and would start from scratch. Same figures, the art looks awesome as it is, but distribute it in a mooooore simple way."
