X-P'd to:

.announce because it seems appropriate somehow
.castle.org.cw because plenty of story stuff goes on there - I hope I'm not
being too presumptuous
.castle.ninja because, well, it'll be obvious momentarily

Greetings all.

I had the thought quite some time ago to put together an online sequential art
piece (read: comicbook). So I commissioned a script from my Brother the Writer,
allowing carte-blanche - all he had to do was keep it within a certain length.
What I got a few months later was Instalment One of The Wanderer.
Well, it sat for quite some time (several more months) before I got 'round to
working on it, but I did finally get to it over the last few weeks. It's hardly
top-shelf material, but I didn't want to spend TOO much time on it either -
it's been waiting long enough.
A lot of the panels might a bit huge, so forewarned is forearmed. I've got it
set up so that you can decide from the Page view which Panels you want to see,
or just click right on through them all if you like. I'm curious how the
interface works out for people.
There's only one instalment so far, though my brother's been making noises of
three more. We'll see whether it's warranted to develop them further.
Anyway, you can get to it by clicking [The Wanderer] link found here;

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Lugnetting. :)
Thanks for your time.

Whoops! Shiri's post reminded me; I'd forgotten to add that there is some measure of "splatter factor" in this piece, so those with delicate sensibilities and/or young children should click (or not) appropriately.

  Re: The Wanderer, an online image-novella.
 
(...) I like your story but I feel that the excess blood in the story is too reminiscent of Mortal Kombat and too many anime scenes in anime so I believe that if you want an equally effective scene, you should use angles in your work.

Wow!!! Lego chambara!!! Sonny Chiba would be proud of you. Everyone else has already drooled over the good stuff (pic quality, image angles, nature layout, etc) so let me just say that I think this is a great adaptation of the manga/movie/anime (...)
