Hey guys! You may notice I've added a gallery of Good Crook-related images. Eventually I'm gonna put up a cast page and other extras, but not yet.

Today's page is one of my favorites, by the way.

Drawing this page, I learned that omelettes are way harder to draw than they look. At least, for me.

I'm mainly just posting now so that big long one below isn't on the top. I get embarrassed when I write long blog posts.

Do you guys read My Year of Flops? It's a blog on the Onion A.V. Club where this guy writes about movies that failed critically and commercially, and didn't even get a cult following afterward- movies that were either completely forgotten or became a sad joke. It's really interesting, and I want to see more of the movies reviewed there then the ones that get good grades on the main site.

Even though there's no page today, I wanted to write a short post about some stuff I've been thinking about. But first:
Thanks so much to Spike of Templar, Arizona for linking Good Crook and saying some really nice things in her blog. Templar is one of my absolute favorite comics of all time, for serious. And Spike is an artist who has a certain sensibility that I just really get into. It's not just that I love her work- I also love the sort of mindset I get when I read her stuff. It's very inventive, but completely natural at the same time, which is very rare. It's the same for me when I read Michael Chabon- it takes me a while to get out of the mood the writing puts me in. Know what I mean? Anyway, I swear to the god of the Internet I would still be saying this if she hadn't linked me.

So, yeah. This comic has barely started, but I hope you'll stick with it. Maybe this isn't the format it's best suited for, but I hope you'll enjoy it anyway. I'm excited about it, and maybe you will be too.

Guys, I drew most of this like a year ago. I promise- the drawings -will- get better.

Also, I'm gonna add other stuff like a cast page and sketches and whatever after a few more pages go up. We're almost at the talking!

Still no talking for maybe another two pages, but this is still one of my favorites.

This past week of comics has done way better than I thought it would, so thanks to everyone who's reading!

Anyway, you can now get to this comic from www.goodcrook.com. That's probably easier.

So, here we go. I wrote this thing as a graphic novel or whatever, so the first couple of pages aren't going to be... action-packed, exactly. It'll probably take a week and a half of updates to get into, you know, talking and stuff. I'm pretty happy with the drawings, though. Come back here Wednesday for the next page, which at least has one of the characters on it. After that the comic will be up MWF. This counts as Monday's, just because I wanted it to start on the first of the month.

Does it look wierd that the comic is on a white background but the page is black? Or is that okay? I don't know, I'm not very good at site design and stuff like that. It's good that Webcomics Nation does most of the work for me.

By the way, soon you'll be able to find this page at www.goodcrook.com. FANCY.
