So good, my man. I love the rhythm of your prose on this one. Lots going on: the plot itself, the ruminations, etc. And the graphics only make it better.
Dense and meaty. I could chew on this Night Jerky till my gums were bleeding. The language is inspired, like others have said, the rhythm of the words in the rhythm of the sentences is magicky. Though I've read it before, it was nice to get another go at it. Even better this time. Thank you for writing.
Thanks very much for that comment, Caleb. My fear in this one is that what set out to be an eco-fable with an experimental method (of always surprising myself with the next bit) let the experimental cart get before the Aesop fable horse.
Still not entirely convinced that the frivolous fun of riffing on noir tropes didn't get the better of a would-be melancholy tale.
The bad/good news is that my output is unlikely to slow down in the near future as I'm working myself harder than ever.

Thanks so much. If I were to do it again I'd make it less comic in tone. As I said, possibly an overdose of early Beckett involved in that decision...

Appreciate your appreciation, comrade. ¡Bienvenido muchacho!
Like Bradley said, the prose and rhythm are on point! Really cool and inspiring stuff.
Thanks for those kind words Seany
This series is my favorite of what I’ve read of yours, though I must admit it’s tough to keep up with your output

I can understand that fear from the perspective of the artisan, but I am enjoying those tasty noir riffs
