Description The front cover to Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name! Chapter One!

Sorry if I've been aloof to almost everyone, work work work work!

Finally getting back on the train of comicking and getting things rolling again even if there's no strip to show for it tonight.

But a cover! Not bad eh? (I mean the productivity, not the cover. You're allowed to think the cover is bad. XD) Just so you know the first chapter is called "In Which There Is A Bat and It Kicks Hanna's Ass".

Nice and long, right? All the chapters will be "In Which..."

OK WORK AGAIN. And maybe drawing something else in between. I'll post pictures of the handmade books when there's something to show for it!!

I like how Conrad's shirt is half-off... considering that it's like that the whole chapter... XD Poor guy doesn't even get to look sharp on the cover.

lololol Why is Conrad taking off his shirt? Or does he only have half a shirt? As always I love Hanna's hair and his ever-present smile. Okay, well almost ever-present smile, but he sure seems optimistic, all things considered.

Anakoreta [2009-10-14 02:04:31 +0000 UTC]

Awesome!

I totally turned my laptop around to see the silhouettes correctly, and promptly looked pretty silly staring at upside screen for a few minutes. But I love the foreshadowing you've managed to cram into them.

I hope that I can buy a book!

Also: It's awesome that zombie-guy looks the same on the flipside.

He's like Jacob! Or Keanu Reeves!

HAHAHAHA.

Despite the fact that zombie may be a role keanu reeves was born to play, if this was ever made into a movie i'd have to skip right over him.

SORRY KEANU REEVES.

this is amazing! Do you know a manga called "D.Gray-Man"? Because that dead reflection kinda reminds me of it. or of the illustrations in Neil Gaiman's childern's books. (like Coraline)

TeasetMonster [2009-10-13 19:26:25 +0000 UTC]

Even though I've been reading the comic, for some reason the first image that came to mind was Mr. Unnamed holding a baseball bat. Hm.

Oh, and productiveness is always win. I like their reflections of sorts underneath.

clemon [2009-10-13 15:43:43 +0000 UTC]

Not bad cover. I'd say that maybe the emphasized word would better be the "not" instead of the "is", but that's just me. I love your comic style. And how the 'shadow's in the pic sort of tell what going to happen. (like Conrad's has x's over the eyes b/c he's going to die & the overuse of bats = vampires...etc)

Is that a tie splitting the cover?

I may be called an idiot for asking this, but does this imply that you are perhaps making a hard copy of your comic? I would buy that in a heartbeat! <3

snowkatt101 [2009-10-13 06:19:01 +0000 UTC]

HAHA OH MAN. I told you before that I LOVE this cover, but I think you should know more so that it's absolutely fantastic! The way that it's kinda mirrored is classic! From the way that it's bright and cheery on top to how it's mirrored and dark down below with HINTS OF WHAT HAPPENS MWAHHA!

Plus should I say the lines, along with each character's expressions. HAHAHA especially Zombies, probably one of the most expressive he's been! But also Hanna looks so happy and cheerful per usual and I love how messy his hair is NOMS And poor Conrad...looking like "rly?" at Hanna haha! ;; so awesome. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT LOVES!

The foreshadowing is really clever. I love how dramatic the silhouettes are, and for some reason especially the bats and crosses.

WhipsmartMcCoy [2009-10-13 04:12:34 +0000 UTC]

Mmm, gotta love those sexy design skills. This cover looks so enticing, I don't think I could resist pulling it off the shelf.

The lineart on the left side (our left, that is) of Hanna's face looks a little choppy, and I think you forgot to color in a small bit of his hair, but these are just nitpicky details that only OCD people like me notice. XD

Even so, it is lovely. C:
