Again, thanks for the feedback. As I’ve said before, people have different expectations in these comics (especially AR) so it’s impossible to please everyone. However, I put about as much process in this one as you can pack into 20 pages and it seems a lot of people did like it. I like Dan’s work but it’s not overtly erotic, like Bojay’s or Palcomix.

I do think the quality of the story is really important, and artwork too is obviously key; either one can make or break a comic. Ideally both are great but I can only control one side of things. And even if you don’t care about having a plot it can’t hurt to have one. I also think it’s very possible to have a comic be very sexy without explicit sex or much nudity.

My objective here is not to just crank out the same stuff, but to try to push the boundaries and make each comic something unique. I’ve always wanted to work with a big-time artist like Dan Parent. Now I have, so I can see the pros and cons of doing so. I’ll have to see how sales go to determine if I’d spend that kind of money again.

BTW Bojay feels the same way, he’s always looking to try something new. I’m working on a few more things with him that I think are a lot of fun. So stay tuned...
