Herman Drone: The Modern American Manthis comic took me a real-ass long time to draw. About a month and a half. But I think it was time well spent. Let me know what you think.

Makes me think a bit of Shel Silverstein, whose work I adore.
Wonderful stuff you have here, so much going on you don't even notice the first time few times you look at it.
Wonderful character and great style!

My heart bled a little.
That was excellent. You really conveyed the mood of the story and the feeling of claustrophobia with the art. The ostensible simplicity really being full of complexity, especially with the shading. And the expressiveness...!
In other news, That was perfect.

It's funney because it's true (or I just have a really warped sense of humour).
Definetly time well spent! I like the story and the texture of the drawings.
Nice hard edged vibe to the story and the style! Keep up the good work.

This reminds me of Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth. Not so much the actual artwork (which fits the mood very well, by the way) but the subject matter, and the loss of hope after trying so hard to succeed.
Great work

This was an amazing comic. It is pretty sad. All in all it was great. I loved all of the little details you added, which made this comic all the more perfect. Great work!

There's something pretty about this page, even though it's not the happiest ending to a story.
And in the second page, Herman could see something about himself in the fish (or atleast that's what I got from it)... Poor guy, eh? *More like poor fish* Ah well. A really nice comic ya got here.

The art itself, the symbolism driving it, and its ability to connect with the viewer are superb. WONDERFUL job!

Brilliant. Sad story. Even the big fish is a victim of the system, he has a hook in him.

Great atmosphere...
Ever read any of the "Black Hole" comics by Charles Burns? They're a great source of b/w inspriation
