Description A submission for ’s contest.

Now the theme is supposed to center around Punktorian themes (Mostly SteamPunk, vaudeville, Gothic Victorian, all that jazz), and it had to be silent, with a coherent story to follow. Being I’m still an extreme novice in comics, I asked my friend for permission to use characters from a separate plot of similar theme that we share. Somehow I just have an easier time working with characters I know rather than making a story from scratch. She did so, and I hope I’m not breaking any rules by doing that.

I actually mostly just hope it is an acceptable submission, winning wasn’t so much my top priority as meeting the challenge and dishing out something that looks half-way decent is. It’s a very redundant sentiment, but I’ll say it anyway: I was happy to enter, this was great motivation to get myself working on graphic story-telling and I hope to make more in the near-future. I also apologize for any inconsistencies that might pop up in the panels. Again, mostly first-time comicing.

The textures came from some scrap-booking paper I got at Michaels, the strange Franken-wolf-deer-pony thing belongs to my friend and you can see a full image of him here: [link]

Everything else was made by me.

This is a beautifully illustrated comic! It really made me smile Wonderful idea too~ I love how the gap in it with simply the background makes such a dramatic pause between the girl's terrified face and the joyful end

I love the tone of the comic. You really portrayed that gothic creepy flair in the beginning and I love how it turned out alright for the girl and bird

I LOVE THIS OH MY GOD!!!! This seriously is great! Your style is amazing, and you've made it look very Gothic and swell :3
It's okay. You haven't broken any rules.
The colours fit the story well, and I was able to easily understand the comic without wondering what the hell was going on. Very much like this!
Thank you for entering and good luck!

D: Oh Wow, thank you so much!

Not only for the EPIC compliment, but the deadline extension. Without it, I wouldn't have been able to do as much, so thank you for that too xD

This was fun, and I hope we have another soon!
