Comics just aren't about slick styling...

[logansrogue]

Dear online Comic Artist,

If you need to write a whole bunch of comic strips in the middle of your strip run telling the reader exactly how the characters are different from each other visually, then you're not doing your job right.

Cheers,
Nancy.

ETA: Here's a better example of what I'm talking about.

Your readers can't tell them apart even though one is blonde and the other is brunette? LMAO

Oh, but there's lots of different brunettes with black, glossy hair! *brain hurts*

Hahah oh man..

SO seconded.

Are they that hard to tell apart? I didn't think so. The writing for it is pretty lame. What's a women's dress size 12 in the USA? I ask because of this strip. That woman doesn't look *that* big.

But those characters are.

It's about a size 16, I think.

Ahhhhh I see. Yeah that's lame.

Yeah I am. I couldn't bus it over cause I feel like shit today. So I'm waiting for Tom to come home so we can come over.
