Chapter: 29 - She's Julie! J-J-J-Julie!
Location: Band Room, Belharght High School
Honestly, it is really nice drawing a band again. I missed it!
Also, before I forget, JD’s 15th anniversary is this Saturday, May 23! Where has the time gone?!
So I really like this particular comic which is rich in detail amd emotion and includes some subtle character development. This is especially true for Erin who, despite her deeply-established baseline hedonism-chaos-and-how-much-trouble-can-I-get-into-anyway persona, here shows an almost philosophically zen-like appreciation of pattern, timing, and acceptance — punctuatied by the quick drum riff. This, mix of chaos and order, in my experience, is almost always the paradoxical worldview of the artistically effective percussionist.
Nicely done.
I can’t take full credit for the writing in this one… It was mostly Dean… He’s really good at mapping out future storylines/creating further development, while I’m mostly the character dialog/reactionary-type of writing. Thank you for the in-depth and very well written compliment. I really appreciate it 🙂
Also tubular bells in the background, cool!
