Dream Life | a late coming of age, is the story of five friends, Charlie, Lionel, Lucy, PJ, and Dan. Each coming to terms with lives unplanned, in danger of going off the rails, or peter paned.
A biker named Garry Greenberg, a big blue tarpaulin wrapped box, a dog and a red head with no hair will force them each to choose a new path.
Part coming of age, part pulp crime novel, part odd to Charles Schultz.
Suggested Listening: Two songs for the next 20 pages – play either of these while reading, about a page a bar roughly i’d say.
I’d go with the one on the right, click this link to open the youtube page in a new window and start playing the song. I’d give each page about 4 bars to read in time.
The first act of Dream Life is planed to appear in some form at TCAF 2010, with this wrap around cover.
I kind of like those red smiling guys, but how the heck do you get the avatars to work? think them is broken….where’s the wrench….
I really love your artwork! Nice colors and layout. If this comic is meant to be a web comic (only) – you should apply a better solution for navigation – like pre-caching images and/or re-loading only image source through some Ajax technique. Furthermore It would be nice if the panels had the same size / resized for perfect fit on the monitor. Right now its a bit too much loading and scrolling involved.
Have a peek at the web comics at our site http://anakata-comics.com and give us some feedback :-)

Thanks Aksel.
I have no idea how to do a lot of that stuff yet, just working out WordPress for now so it’s going to have to do for now.
And yes this is going to be printed! hoping to have the first chapter as a small run book at TCAF.
Funny you should say that about the size, they look like this partly because the last place i posted them people complained about having to enlarge them to read it :) are you finding them very slow to load? I’m thinking about switching hosts soon, something i’ll look into.
stylin’!
