It was only a few months ago or what have you, that I realized that I’ve actually been making comics since I was little–case in point, below is a ‘strip’ I drew when I was in 5th grade (I think?). Called “Feeding the Popcorn monster”– this actually hung on the wall of my dad’s office for many, many years (alongside a collage of napkins & glitter by my sister)…
As you can see, from a young age, I played w/ panels (or the lack thereof, in this case), had a taste for the fantastical, and my handwriting was only slightly different than it is now…
I would like the thank my dad for riffling through his papers and scanning this not once, but I think 3 times for me–after much pestering on my part 🙂 Enjoy!
Hmm…now I want some popcorn.
PS I would like the point out that I had the chefs add butter, not margarine, to the eponymous monster’s popcorn….which I find a bit odd, since at that time, all we used at home was margarine.
