I don’t usually post stuff about work on this blog, other than to say it is keeping me busy, but this latest project took up of big chunks of my life over the last 9 months, so I thought it deserved a mention:

Fool me, I decided the comics pages needed an overhaul. So I put together a committee and tackled it. This the A1 article I wrote announcing the changes.

The A1 story I wrote

The jump page from A1.

These are the Life pages with the article I also wrote and designed, introducing the new strips:

Life cover. Wrote story and designed

Life jump. Continued the meet the comics story. Still written by me.

I set up feedback lines, but still got screamed at more than I wanted to. My big mistake was cutting the bridge column (that card game that old people play) — yeah, apparently Vancouver has a nationally known bridge club and I got over a hundred complaints in 3 days — so I had to bring it back. (serious teeth gnashing here). Oh well — win some, you lose some.
