For the sake of argument, let’s say that Beth’s a real person, and that she makes this comic. I mean, it’s not like I’ve never put real people into a comic before, right?
So, Beth looked at the paper of the school we both go to (and that I’m currently employed by as a goddamned editor [Parker, where are those photos of Spider-Man? Par-keeer!!]), and noticed that there were some things missing from the comics section. Those things included the horror genre, which is certainly a mainstay of any newspaper that I care to read, and single panel comics, which tend to be funny about 1% of the time anyway, so you might as well try to make it scary.
Then she went and named it Boo-Niversity, because she doesn’t like being a respected member of society.
Tomorrow: how I actually make comics. Anybody here like text?
