Welcome to JAWC v2.5 : I'm 24 years old now... FUCK! Allright, so I'm starting to read or rather have been reading "Transmetropolitan" written by Warren Ellis and pencilled by Darick Robertson... yeah, it's a comic book and it totally kicks ass and deserves recognition for being so damn awesome... and I mean that in the pure sense of the word, this comic is awe-some... it fill my head with thoughts of wanting to make a difference, to stand up from the crowd and proclaim that I'm not some fucking drone, that I make a difference... But still it fills me with the sense that maybe my rants aren't just being passed over, maybe someone out there is reading my pontifications and thinking to themselves, "hey, this guy has a good head on his shoulders, I wonder what he's gonna say next time... " I'm almost through all of it, got about 20 comics or so to read but it's one hell of a trip, I've also read through the 86 comics of "The Exiles" which is also freakin' cool, but I think "Transmetropolitan" is so much better, maybe it's the sinister ranty and raving bastard in me going, "YELL AND BE HEARD... WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT OTHERS THINK... SAY IT LOUD AND PROUD AND BE WHO YOU ARE!" I usually try to suppress that voice but have yet to find out how... I've been thinking lately... it's about time I really buckled down and worked towards a definitive goal... Storyboarding. I know it's seemingly an odd goal, but overall I really need to work on things, and yeah I know that the comic is really bland in terms of backgrounds and other details, but mind you I drew these pages up to the filler 100th page back in June... so hopefully as the new pages come into effect I'll start to work on things that need to be there, so I can stop fucking around and being lazy and instead work harder on the damn comic... I mean, geez, where have I been going with all this?... wasn't this comic supposed to help me get used to the idea of drawing from a script?.. I never thought 3 years ago when my teacher first mentioned me writing my own script and storyboarding it would ever happen, in fact I laughed at the mere idea of it... and now here I am finally determined to get serious... serious about moving on with my life and doing what I want to do and having fun, instead of doing the things I don't want to and trying to eke out a living and surviving with so little... I wanna make the big bucks and have fun doing it... I'm not gonna keep wishing idly while my dreams just fester... I'm going to do something about it. - Tiki Man
