Just this moment I was going through my "Slipping Through" sketchbook and I realized how jumbled and out of order the pages are. I suppose this is because I tend to sketch things out as I think of them, regardless of when they take place in the story.
For example, when I rebooted this comic I started off with Maggie standing in a nightclub looking deeply annoyed. How did she get there? I wondered, Why is her hair a mess? And why is she wearing a cape? Then I realized she must have just come off work, that is, she had just had a throw down with some villain. So then I had to go and draw that bit and change that to the beginning.
Later on, in stuff you haven't seen yet, I got frustrated drawing Maggie's apartment so I skipped to drawing stuff with her at work. Now I've had to go back and fill in the gaps.
It just struck me because I've started coloring some pages that are next chronologically, but I drew them months ago. It's getting quite confusing. Especially since in some of the older pages I went back and reworked some of the panels. So in some pages there are bits that I know are ages old, but there's some stuff which I only thought of recently so it's got to be new.
Well, back to work.

Pretzel and the Princess: Updated!
There, a whole bunch of pages for your enjoyment! I'm having fun with this comic. The Princess leaping from tall heights only to be rescued by her amphibious squire seems to happen more than Pretzel would like.
Next: The Great Escape!

It's been awhile
But I'm back! Bringing with me "Slipping Through" version 2.0! Enjoy twelve pages of my comic. At least, I hope you will enjoy it. I'll refrain from belittling myself and just let you read it.
By the way: This is a work of fiction, any resemblance to actual persons living or dead is purely coincidental. That means that Maggie is not supposed to be me and her mother is not supposed to resemble mine. I thought I should throw that out there before Mom gets any ideas. Any traumas, sufferings, or family problems Maggie has are her own and have nothing to do with me.
And I have never interrogated a rat in an alley. (Please don't ask if I've interrogated them anywhere else)
Any questions, criticism (be kind) or other input is welcomed and encouraged!
