Man I like your novel, I'm working on a Graphic Novel too but I still have to collect some materials

**ColorExcursion** · January 7th, 2010, 12:14 AM

**bagtaggar** · January 7th, 2010, 12:29 AM

This is just beautiful. Thanks for the comment in my sketchbook, I had to swing by yours, and I'm floored. LOVE it.

**Hanny Honeymoon** · January 7th, 2010, 02:10 AM

**Nubb** · January 7th, 2010, 02:14 AM

I absolutely love your lines and compositions. great way you deal with space on those panels. Bravo!

**KennethHunter** · January 7th, 2010, 02:21 AM

um?, I love this shi* will be back in the future...... promise.

**dan liimatta** · January 7th, 2010, 03:49 AM

Lovely panels, and very cool lines, characters and story

& and as far as I am concerned I wouldn't hold it against you if you selfpublished, but then I'm not represenative for the comic industry, though I've been known to buy comics I like ~ so much for being helpful, but I do wish you the best of luck with your creation, what ever option you choose.

**bharat** · January 7th, 2010, 03:51 AM

cool storyboard like the style ...!

**Delmar** · January 7th, 2010, 06:50 AM

Great updates brubaker!

Love the girl waking up scene.

More please !!

**Delmar** · January 7th, 2010, 06:50 AM

sorry doublepost...

...again great work! hehe

**The7Artist7** · January 7th, 2010, 08:33 AM

haha - hey this is cool stuff! Subscribed!

**brubaker** · January 7th, 2010, 01:53 PM

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a nice holiday time.

@Lav - Thanks!

@liam.c - Thanks too!

@Bloodsbane - I'm glad you like to see the process. I have been trying to find as many work in progress pictures as I can to post. I just need to scan more stuff. Thanks for looking at the blog too!

@Cy-AN - I look forward to seeing your GN. Your sb has some great creatures!

@ColorExcursion - hehe good!

@bagtaggar - Thank you!

@Hanny Honeymoon - Thank you too!

@Nubb - Thanks for the comment. I love composition and negative space. I'm glad you like it.

@1986 - Glad you like it!

@dan liimatta - Thanks for the comment. I still go back and forth on self-publishing. I think in the end I love the fact that nobody is telling me how to publish my book and how many pages or what the cover should look like or if cat's aren't popular this minute, etc. But maybe if a great company comes along and we jell then I will take the next step.

@bharat - It's funny that you say that. I drew storyboards for years before I finally decided to jump into this. It mush be obvious. ha

@Delmar - Thanks again!

@The7Artist7 - Thanks to you too!

Here are some full pages of my GN. Sorry about using Comic Sans in these pages. I recently made my own fonts and I still need to replace it all. If you want to see the second image colored then it's on my blog @ reMINDblog.com

Thank you thank you thank you for all your comments and encouragement!

**shambok** · January 8th, 2010, 09:14 PM

First of all ... thanx so much for taking a look at me sketchbook !!!
Your style is uber awesome, I love the incorporation of the comic cat character! Your line work is super and your composition is candy to my eyes! I wish you all the best in your comic and I hope to find it some day soon in a comic shop.

**brubaker** · January 11th, 2010, 01:14 AM

Hey thanks Shambok. I hope to find this thing in the comic shop someday too. ha

I'll try to post something new in the next few weeks.

**brubaker** · January 17th, 2010, 04:59 PM

Here is a page that I am finally going to post on Monday on my blog. It's pretty much finished except for the ugly looking sound effects.

**shambok** · January 17th, 2010, 05:33 PM

Thanx for posting so soon

... looking awesome!

**Sir Cam** · January 17th, 2010, 05:53 PM

Cool work, very detailed and stylish. Is it published yet? I've seen artists with much less skill than you getting their work published by legit companies so I'm sure you shouldn't have much trouble.

**midknight523** · January 17th, 2010, 06:03 PM

cool new pages

**brubaker** · January 17th, 2010, 11:17 PM

@shambok - I appreciate it. Your blog has some very nice stuff on it by the way!

@Sir Cam - I love the curves in your anatomy sketches in your sketchbook. This stuff isn't published yet but I am posting the progress on my blog. I still plan to self publish but that could change if the right pieces fall into place. So for now I'm posting it slowly online, first, to gain a few buyers before I spend the big bucks to print it.

@midknight523 - Thanks!

**shambok** · January 18th, 2010, 05:39 AM

Aww ... thanx so much for checking out my blog ... glad you like ... it serves as a dump for all the work (good or bad) that I do! ... which reminds me, I better go update it

**The7Artist7** · January 18th, 2010, 06:00 AM

Yet another excellent page! Thanks for sharing these BruBaker! And I echo the thought that much much worse has been published - This isn't a passable attempt at a comic - this is an accomplished creation of a comic! It draws you in and rewards you with visual and story delights

Keep rocking - I look forward to each update!

**ZhouPeng** · January 18th, 2010, 06:49 AM

the cat and the baby~
love you stroy~

**LironGabriel** · January 18th, 2010, 06:58 AM

Hey very nice SB
I like all the details in your big drawings.. very nice indeed.

**Dubu** · March 17th, 2010, 08:01 AM

Hey Jason, it's nice to see some of the rough work compared to the finished spreads.
It helps me understand the process of making a graphic novel, which I still have alot to learn about!! anyways, I wanted to tell you that I'm back!!!
