Thanks Stray, I probably got the caption storytelling idea from from Lynda Barry's work. She once said her comics were about 15%-25% autobiographical. My Magic Wandee story is at the 5% mark- who doesn't remember playing with something that's now prohibited thanks to reckless (or stupid) kids? Who doesn't remember being told "That's not funny!" as a child, because you snickered at the story of some kid who got hurt because he did something unbelievably foolish?
Thanks, Linda, RHSteele0H I'd wanted a hand written typeface, but the ones I had were too hard to read (and I was too snobby to use Comic Sans). So I picked this one. The picture that drove me craziest was the house turning into butterflies. The concept sounded funny- but when I had to draw it. I ended up making a special image "hose" (Painter 8) that left streaks of butterflies.

He'll be a hit at the frat house.
I like the caption style and story -- lovely!
Thanks Stray,

This is a wonderful story and very beautiful, too. I hope you expand on it because I want to see more of this magical world.
p.s. I think the font you've chosen works so well.
That was great!
I hope you continue this series, I'm liking it!
I vacillated on posting this... forgive me for being the editor-geek, I think there's a word missing (used to have) in the first caption. *ducks*
Thanks, Linda, RHSteele0H

Thanks, Ghostbuild.
