Thief: Eye for an Eye (Fan Comic)

Captain Spandex on 10/8/2010 at 08:50

New comic stuff I've been working on for fun over the last few days.
As always, the colored version - done by (http://keeper-anakara.deviantart.com/) this young lady - is very different from the black & white version, so I've included both.

Canonically, it isn't precisely accurate, as Garrett didn't technically discover that Karras had manufactured his eye until later, but I took a dramatic liberty in that regard. As I post more pages, it will become more clear as to why. It obviously takes place after the conclusion of TDP and prior to TMA, depicting Karras's rise and the aftermath of the Trickster's fall.

Hope you guys like it!

This comic isn't actually finished. I'll post more pages as they're completed.

If you want to see 'Metal Dawn', the first comic I did, check (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=129140&page=1&highlight=thief+metal+dawn) this thread.

Man, your shading must take ages. How do you do it?

It's just my style.
Doesn't take that long. About three hours to finish a page. From pencils to inks.

For perspective, Moebius (my artistic idol, and world-famous French comic book artist who inspired the look of films like Blade Runner and The Fifth Element) spends about a day on a single comic panel.

...of course, he's also much better than I am, but I suppose speed is worth something.

Glad you guys like it, though!

Damn, there's almost nothing to complain about! :cheeky:

...Almost. I don't like the scar. ;) Too much of an entertainment cliché.
