This one was a lot of fun. The lamp-cam, while certainly not as nice looking as it could be, is good enough for me. I’m consciously trying to break the “590 syndrome” which plagues so many comics (not just webcomics), without falling in the opposite extreme.

Something you might have noticed is that ID strips have little text, in a relatively large font. That’s because for me, a lot of text in a strip is a bit of a turn-off (though not always; check Basic Instructions for a comic that uses a helluva lot of text to great effect). Here I’m using a “wall of text” in the last panel, but it’s cool because it’s for a humorous reason (i.e. the amount of text itself is the “punchline”, as it were).

Something else you might have noticed is that ID strips don’t always have punchlines, or aren’t humorous at all. This webcomic is experimental… I’m not actively trying to make it comical, nor am I trying to make it dramatic. I’m saving that for later.

Also, the word “imaginary” and its derivates appear way too often in this strip. Let’s put an end to that, starting next strip.
