flintstonian

Usually I don’t care much when celebrities die. Occasionally I do. Hunter S. Thompson was a genius (irregardless of his controversy), and his death is tragic. He did so much for journalism and writing, especially the radical kind that we as student journalists are supposed to uphold. I knew we (at the Press) had to acknowledge him somewhere. So I did my edcomic this week as bit of a tribute to him.

On the more technical side of things, I just realised that my edcomic characters look very Flintstoneian. I think I’m OK with that actually. Its better than South Parkian (which I hear about them way, way too often).
This is not actually the print version. I wasn’t happy with it, so I tweaked it a little. I spent forever on it yesterday, wanting to get it just right. I wish I’d give myself more time to do these things, but then they very often wouldn’t be timely (which is critical for an edcomic).
