Snarl #2

(IV Part 1, Back-up feature)

Snarl Comics evolved out of the ill-fated Battle Royalle anthology. It usually features 2 installments of Reg Stacey's awesome Group of Seven comic, a back-up feature or 2 and some Who's Who style pin-ups. When it came time to publish issue #2, Reg was looking for a back-up and I had a few weeks off during the summer so I went down to his place and basically came up with the first installment of an ongoing project called IV (Four in Roman Numerals).

I usually tend towards self-contained stories, or at  least stories that aren't necessarily episodic, but at this time, I was beginning to lament not having a more open ended project to work on. What I wanted was something episodic that could be done quickly enough so as not to derail any of my current projects, and yet provide enough room to have something interesting happen each episode. So I decided to go with a bit of a number theme. 4 pages per episode, 4 panels per page. It should be interesting to see how long it takes me to tire of having to maintain that kind of structure.
