NPWIL in print
January 10, 2011 11:21 am
Here's something I just wanted to put out there in regards to a print version of the comic --
There are several episodes that I do not have print resolution back-ups for and will have to redraw. Besides those, there are several episodes with wierd web-specific layouts that resist my efforts to format them to the printed page, and there are several episodes that are, let's face it, poorly drawn.
What I'm saying is, would you, the three or four people who post comments and swear that you'll be the first in line to buy a print edition of this comic, feel at all offended or cheated if I just redrew everything.
I wouldn't change anything (except maybe the gift shop episode, I don't even remember what that one means,) I'd just, you know, tighten it up. Add some backgrounds where I was too lazy to draw them before. Use a ruler instead of drawing everything free-hand. That kind of thing.
Granted, if you're a fan of this comic you might actually like the wobbly off-squareness of the drawing, and I can assure you it was intentional at the time. I'm just thinking an "analogue remaster" might be kind of cool.
Any opinions?— Kit Roebuck

I would love to own a print version! I've visited off and on over the span on a few years. I love the comic and the way it makes me feel... on the inside.
Remaster if you must, I would still buy it.— Doc R

I would definitely go for a print version of the comic. As to the re-drawing, as an alternative, I would bet that Adobe Illustrator's vectorization features would work quite well for your art style. Do that, re-rasterize, presto! Just a suggestion, don't know if you've thought of it yet.
