Description Finally! The first chapter of my comic is done, and I'm inviting you to read it here [link] I'm very exited and looking forward for you comments and feedbacks!
A huge thanks to these three
for being an amazing artist, a fabulous writer and a wonderful friend supporting me with my novel and my comic book. There would be no comic without here!
for editing my clumsy English in the comic. It was a very kind move which I deeply appreciate
and for her heroic fight with my stubbornness, which she has won by forcing me to remove "that line".

YES!
Finally! I couldn't wait! (and then I forgot about it and only opened one day later//shotdead.)

It was genuinely amazing, really worth the wait!

The art was wonderful, emotion was so clear every time, and it was simply stunning. I just love her wild, crazy hair which just seems to hate gravity

The story itself was really deep and touching, and also the behavior of those in the orphanage is truly... yeah, very, VERY human-like, and I just LOVE the psychology, the story, EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!

And... wait... Kuroi didn't exist? W-whwhwhwh-whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy *cries* Why would you do this to meeeee//shotdead.

I look forward to next chapter, it's just brilliant so far!

^______^ You are making me jumping on my chair that much happy am it! And gravity? Pah! Who ever loves this bastard! It makes our life so boring! And thank you for your amazing comment, you really made me endlessly happy with it. And what's for Kuroi.... I'll keep my mouth shut (or my hands motionless? )

And here is a SEVERE case of fridge horror: IF she turns candy into spiders, does it mean that in the world she came from, Spiders are seen as a CANDY!? That really horrified me for a moment there O_o

Mew! ^____^ You are making me happy with this comment! I'm jumping on my chair! And yeaahhh, sure! I would appreciate it so much if you noted me my mistakes. I would love to use English perfectly. I'm working on it everyday, but still I have problems and help of native speakers is what I'm seeking for. ^_^ Even if you note me my mistakes in my feedbacks I will be grateful.

You deserve it, it's wonderful! I'm so looking forward to seeing where the story goes
It's not letting me leave a comment on the site so a note will have to do, sorry! You're English is great considering it's not your first language. English isn't an easy one to learn, half of native English speakers can't even use it right So you're doing really well, I have no doubt one day your English is going to be perfect!

MyoMeit [2013-03-02 07:20:00 +0000 UTC]

Так много чего хочется сказать...
Начну с того, что долго наблюдала за самим становлением персонажей,т.е. какими они были, когда ты начинала собирать свою историю по частям, как они менялись, и какими стали в конце, Курой почти не изменился, только небольшие детальки и доработки во внешности, а вот Цекай...на обложке я ее узнала только благодаря медальону. У нее было столько изменений, сначала она была похожа на уличного мальчишку, потом на юную деву эпохи средневековья, потом от части стала леди, и в конце, я думаю, она стала сама собой, ведь нынешний ее бунтующий и свободолюбивый образ кажется идеальным, как и внешняя его реализация, так и внутренняя, ее желания, эмоции и характер.
Меня очень порадовал новый способ изложения истории, книгу я прочла ( по крайней мере первую книгу), и все же комикс как то ближе, ведь не все, что ты хочешь передать можно сказать словами или описать,ведь иногда проще показать. Так же очень понравилось, что стиль комикса все же ближе к манге, чем к европейскому комиксу. Намного ярче и интересней картинка, постановка момента, даже не смотря на то, что она без цвета, ее прорисовка и детализация момента уже говорят о многом, нежели абстрактные пятна фона, как сейчас принято во многих хитах данного жанра.
А еще хочется немного добавить о прорисовке лиц самих персонаже. Получилось очень специфично, даже я бы сказала по-особенному. Не забыта ни какая морщинка, ни небольшая складочка, все так точно и в нужном месте, что создается ощущение, как будто это была фотография, которую после отсняли в черно-белом варианте и перевели на бумагу, но в тоже время, если на любую из ваших картин наложить цвет, то сразу же она обретет новую жизнь, и каждая черточка и линия придется к месту.

Спасибо большое за комментарий! Перечитывала несколько раз. Честно говоря я сама считаю, что комикс как-то ближе к истории. Изначально Книга Противоречий и была комиксом, потом стала книгой, а вот теперь будет существовать в двух версиях. Что-то комикс не может сказать, а что-то не может передать книга. Так что я очень рада, что занялась и комиксом, так я могу сказать все! Спасибо еще раз огромное за комментарий. Просто невероятно приятно! И вы подметили все то, что я так хотела показать! ^_^

I was confused about a few words and things but It may just be because its going to be revealed in the next chapter. Other than that, It was wonderful!

Looking forward to the next installment! ^^

Oh thank you so much! And well, yes... there are a lot of mystery here, and you gonna need not just the next chapter, but next chapterS to find out what is what.

ElectrikalChaoz In reply to ChristinZakh [2013-03-02 19:04:30 +0000 UTC]

Your very welcome! Thank you for sharing your story!

The parts where I was confused are in page 16 but now I understand. She could hear certain words while walking by. Which become clear to her as she paid attention.

Page 27 too, when the new character introduced talks about the "Jailors" which is what I think will be revealed in the chapters ahead.
