Hey, haven't done the comic thing for a while now...need some input and any ideas you want to send my way.

Basic story:
Ppl find a very old book- transported to Ancient Greece- learn about 4 horsemen (well 3 men and one woman)- I'm thinking about having War and Conquest hook up. Each chapter will be an exploration of a war/famine/death thing in history.
This is the 1st chapter I'm going to finish it with an "off camera" explanation of the 4 horsemen with some Greek/Roman/Alex the Great carnage/war shots.

Next ch. I think will be Chernobyl or maybe the French Revolution- I don't want to go in chronological order so I can keep ppl guessing about what will come next.

Sorry about the quality of the shots...had to do this with the camera, stupid scanner scans to bright the lines disapear.

Very interesting plot and storyline...Try to make your lines darker so that the scans are clearer. I'll post more criticism later, I've got to get off the computer. Next time I'll edit this post with better help for you!

Name the characters, give a little bit more details about them and the plot, too! Also, try to erase unwanted lines that you've got, it makes this a bit easier to pay attention to! So when you draw them, try to either make them a little lighter, or erase more throughly.
I would also write a little larger...Use a ruler to keep your lines straight.

Good job, keep it up!! So good luck with the rest of your comic, I'll keep reading! And critiquing, of course!! PM me when you need help, you've got an awesome start.

it looks pretty interesting, you just gotta work on the artwork and try inking in your drawings. Then its all about being consistent
