Isaac & Lee
The Digital Edition
And here we have the first appearance of one of our main characters. All I can say at this point is that I had a tough time with her initial character design. I went back and forth with having her be drawn in a completely different style than Isaac and Lee to having her draw in the same style. I fell somewhere in the middle. It was a tough decision but now I feel very comfortable with her, the same way I do with everyone in this universe.
Have a good Samhain, one and all!
One of the things that I’ve always liked to do was have things going on in the background of my work. Because they are in a sleazy bar, what else is going to happen? A bar fight of course.
Happy Birthday to the person who Lee is based off of. You know who you are! Without you, this comic wouldn’t even be here. Have a great day!
(At this point I’d like to point out how cool it is that this comic has updated itself on both Isaac and Lee’s birthdays)
I love how this scene, not only shows how Rich is able to disarm someone, but that I was able to begin mentioning Scrappy. There is a story there, which I will explain later. This scene is about Rich disarming a situation with a smile and a hearty handshake.
I remember this page taking way longer than it should have to produce. Another page that I look at and realise how much I’ve changed. For those of you just tuning in, I am reminiscing on old pages of Isaac & Lee that I created a few years back now. This is also the time when I started exploring blacks more in my work. The big reason for this is because it was the same time that I started using Ka-Blam to publish my books. I have to admit, it certainly gave me a little more creative freedom to explore more things artistically in this book.
I like to think of Isaac & Lee as a melodrama.
This is the first appearance of Lee’s roommate Anne. While Lee is the logical one compared to Isaac. Anne is Lee’s voice of reason when he flies off the handle. Also, this is the first appearance of Lee’s home, I had a lot of fun designing the kitchen.
