Feb 20's page:

I'm not sure why I think this is funny, but I really, really do.

I'm the first to admit that Good Crook was not written as a webcomic. I wrote it as a single book with a definite end. I hope it doesn't seem too slowly paced. I'm a little nervous to talk about this stuff here because I don't want to seem too down on my own work. I'm not; I'm very proud of this, but I do have some worries as I imagine you have to in order to hopefully start improving. (I'm also sometimes very doubtful of my skills as a colorist, and just generally transferring a page to the screen. It always looks to me like something's lost in the process. Oh well.)
I've got a decent bunch of readers right now- I'm pretty much where I sort of wanted and expected to be after the first few months of the comic. We're sort of nearing the hundredth page now, and I hope to get the comic out there a little more. I'm not totally sure how to do that, but... wish me luck. All of you who read, thank you! And those of you who have talked about and linked to the comic- it means a lot to me, more than I can say.
If you read, please don't hesitate to tell me what you think! I'd love to talk to you guys.
I hope this post doesn't seem negative. It isn't! I feel like my life is going pretty well right now and I guess I'm sort of trying to transfer a little more of that to my comics. Or something.
Anyway, there was a recent bunch of arrests of mob bosses from the Gambino family, and one of the guys they got owned the restaurant a block away from my house. We always called it "the mafia restaurant." It's weirdly satisfying to find out we were right.
