A new Hereville page is up. This is page seven. As promised, more violent than last week’s page. Less wordy, too..
the people he picks to work in his administration are supposed to support that effort as long as they don’t…

I smell T-shirt.
Perhaps also a catchphrase: “Hereville THIS!”
(I kid. Great page. Great moment.)
I LOVE the facial expression in the last frame. It reminds me of my littel sister. (Ok.. she’s 43.. but still lil’ sis!)
Thanks, Lucia. I redrew that panel a few times looking for the right tone and expression. :-)
(And thanks to Kip, too.)
Okay,
But it doesn’t seem to me to be more violence; she stopped the violence. She did what she had to do.
While I’ve had a few problems with Hereville so far, I have to say this for you Amp: I think it’s marvelous that to you, this is a “more violent” page. Perhaps you just mean that it’s more violent than the previous week’s page, but it’s nice in general to see someone who views wacking someone else with a branch as “violent.” It’s a refreshing change of pace from say, “Kill Bill” or “Akira” or, hell, most other stuff these days.
Good on you.
I’m afraid all I meant is that it was more violent than page 6. :-)
I’ve got nothing against violence in comics, but I don’t expect that Hereville will be very violent as comic books go. For one thing, I don’t like drawing fights very much; I’d rather draw people talking. In fact, it embarasses me a tiny bit that I’m on page seven and already it’s a fight scene (albeit a very mild fight scene compared to what’s in Akira).
Anyway, here’s the plot outline for the month or two of Hereville, after the current confrontation ends: Talk. More talk. Some more talk. More talking. More talk. Then perhaps, o I don’t know, some more talking. Then the whole family will help prepare for Shabbot dinner.
This was awesome, Amp. I mean, talking’s cool and all, but to be able to have a page with all action is really cool.
I really look forward to Hereville every week. It perks up my otherwise drab Thursdays. :)
That’s what I love to hear, kStyle (well, not the bit about your Thursdays being drab, but the other stuff). Thanks!
Ah! I see that you construct your stories in much the same way that I do: people stand around and blab to one another. Honestly, that’s more exciting than fighting when the dialogue is good.
