Aphasia Chapter 3: Waltz
Clay: Pages 26-31, 37-39
Kraken (written by Clay): Pages 32-36
Carrie: Pages 40 to 43
Unlike the previous chapters I had a lot to do with this one. I can’t remember why Carrie didn’t do pages 32 to 36, but my Ontario Fanartists Unite friend Kraken stepped up to do some wonderful art. To me, there is also a huge improvement in my own storytelling, and the pace is really nice and relaxed in this chapter, especially pages 37 to 39 which really serve no purpose except for me to draw some backgrounds. Those backgrounds are actually inspired by some hiking trips I did on the Bruce Trail. I’ve been doing four panel comics nearly exclusively for the last ten or so years and I kind of miss doing those kinds of pages which don’t advance anything but just add a bit of mood.
Whenever I would have to draw a gravestone, Tang Ho’s would always be there.

Clawing his way out of the grave? Ok, I didn’t see that one coming. I assume the mute’s black eye is from the last beating she took from her dad Nice backgrounds..
The eye thing is explained in the next chapter, and you’re correct. Thank you for the kind words.
