Hmm. After my trip to GDC, getting back into the swing of “cranking out this strip” hasn’t come together.
I haven’t gone back and polished the last 3 doctor strips. i’ll make a note when i do, just in case people want to see it.

uh, here we see the 2 dudes i guess (their story-space at least). Their broken carrying case is setup as a trap. A beast evades it. More trap action in tomorrow’s strip! HA HA!
ok, This sequence is pretty fucking boring. I won’t lie.

I don’t know why I wrote so many boring strips. Or maybe they’re fine, and I just enjoyed the city action too much. Part of me wonders about rewriting this trap sequence to be more epic. …or get rid of the carrying case once and for all. but. the original idea was to show a slower pace with the two dudes in the wasteland. ehhh. small conflict in my mind. ummm. hmm.

I should really go back and review the whole script. make sure this (and the family story) are pacing properly.
eh.
Take the doctor storyline, for example: I’d always intended to have an arena of death where the doctor carries out experiments. i LOVE that shit. but. I thought I should set up his wife first, as her condition is really his motivation. it feels to me like that storyline just goes from zero to sixty. hmmf. I tried to set it up in the last doctor strip. that he wants to test more than the flesh of the animal-men he’s dicking around with. ehh. well, from now on, it’s mostly animal-men fighting in an arena in the story line. if my memory serves me. and that might be a big pacing mistake. hmmf. i should probabyl be commenting about this elsewhere. sayyyy, on a doctor strip. or maybe I shouldn’t be talking this openly about story concerns at all? hmm. it all made so much sense when i cranked all the *#$^@%ing strip scripts out.

well. i’ll just stop for now. …

… in other news, I watched Lars von Trier’s Antichrist this morning. thought it was pretty damned good. wondered why everyone hated it at Cannes. to me it was so creepy and beautiful (and casually pornographic) and disgusting that it had my full attention. hmmf. oh shit, this isn’t the blog for movie reviews either. jesus. fucking internet.
