Here are my latest comic sequentials, based on a sample "Ghost" script from Dark Horse Comics by Randy Stradley.

Just letting everyone know, I am available for commissions to work on your comic! Note or email me for rates.

The dialogue for the story is below.

------------------------------------------------

Panel 5
7 CAP: …AND I’M GONE.

PAGE THREE
Panel 1
1 CAP: BUT WHERE I’VE GONE TO IS STILL A MYSTERY.
2 CAP: THE DEMON WHO CALLS HIMSELF “CAMERON NEMO” SAID THAT THIS PLACE EXISTS WITHIN ME … IN MY MIND.
Panel 2
3 CAP: IF THAT’S TRUE, IT MIGHT EXPLAIN WHY TIME HAS NO MEANING HERE…
Panel 3
4 CAP: …AND WHY SO MUCH OF MY – ELISA CAMERON’S -- PAST MANIFESTS ITSELF IN THIS PLACE.
Panel 4
5 CAP: OF COURSE, I’M ASSUMING I CAN TAKE NEMO AT HIS WORD.

PAGE FOUR
Panel 1
1 CAP: IT COULD BE THAT WHEN HE TOLD ME HE CAME FROM THIS HELL -- WHEREVER THIS PLACE IS -- THAT HE WAS LYING … TRYING TO PSYCHE ME OUT…
2 CAP: …MAYBE IT’S EVERYONE’S HELL.
Panel 2. Flashback
CAP: WHATEVER THE TRUTH MAY BE, THE FACT IS THAT I’M THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR LETTING NEMO LOOSE IN THE WORLD.
Panel 3

PAGE SEVEN

GHOST: -- YOU’RE SAFE, NOW.
Panel 2
GHOST (OP): THEY’RE NOT.
Panel 3
CLIFF & BRUNO: AAAAAAAHHH!
Panel 4
SFX (only if necessary): KRASH!

PAGE EIGHT
Panel 1
1 GHOST: WHEN THE POLICE GET HERE, TELL THEM TO WATCH THE VIDEO TAPE IN THE KID’S CAMERA.
2 GHOST: AND TELL THEM I SAID TO GIVE EACH KID A COPY OF IT -- AFTER THEY’RE OUT OF JAIL.
3 MAN: Uh, SURE … WHATEVER YOU WANT…
Panel 2
4 GHOST: LISTEN. THERE’S ONE MORE THING.
5 MAN: Huh?
Panel 3
6 GHOST: GET YOURSELF A GOOD LAWYER. WITH THE EVIDENCE THAT’S ON THAT TAPE, YOU’VE GOT THE MAKINGS OF A CIVIL SUIT THAT WILL GET YOU OFF THE STREETS, AND THEN SOME.
Panel 4

Hi Derick! Thanks for the compliments. Dark Horse did not reply to my submission, but that is expected. They are a huge company with thousands of artists knocking on their doors everyday. As artists, we must keep positive, work hard and wish for the luck that one day an editor will give us that phone call!

And I encourage you to post your Dark Horse submission. I would love to see it.

Believe and keep trying because it is hard, competitive and arduous, but the reward is optimal. But mine are bad, but really bad, I'm currently training hard to put only good things in the DA. :)

LOVE this style, and LOVE your use of expression, contrast, and perspective. It really is a fun read, even without knowing what the words are! That's the art of good storytelling, I think. Knowing what the story is even without having the words to guide you.
