So, what do you think? Does Jane look like you imagined?
Return to this local on Thursday for the next exciting page.
Original Script
JANE (Voiceover) No more painful smiles. She cuts the bandages away from her jaw. No mums hushing children. No concerned pity. Jane pulls a fancy new dress over her head. Finally, I can be like everyone. I can be no one. Jane examines her face in the mirror. She has short wavy brown hair and VERY pale skin with freckles. MOM Voice comes out of a speaking tube. Dash it all, Girl! Jane jumps. Quit lollygagging or we shall depart without you!
Well, isn’t she a pretty young lady! I think I’m going to miss the mummy design, but hey, as long as she hasn’t lost her sass, I’m perfectly happy.
Don’t worry, the mummy will be back. And, her sass is eternal.
Okay, she has hair–now to find a full-body parasol….
And, apart from your expanding drawing skills, she looks very much as I remember her–even to her age at her time of death.
Thanks. Working out how she’d look being a few years older with her hair growing back was an interesting. I’d gotten lazy drawing bandages and hadn’t paid much attention to facial features, until now.
She’s even more adorable than I remembered.
Partly due to forgetting what she looked like before her mummification, and partly due your your mad drawing skills.
I love the physical comedy at the end. Noting livens up a scene like falling down!
Funny story: my wife had mostly straight hair before she got dreadlocks. Brightly colored dreadlocks that changed hue every year. But, after she got rid of them a few years ago her hair had changed, it grew back curlier than before.
Long serious scenes are begging for lowbrow comedy.
She looks…well-preserved. (Literally).
It’s this new health elixir called Radithor, “a Cure for the Living Dead” and “Perpetual Sunshine”.
This is rather cool. I like seeing a superhero finding a mild-mannered alter-ego.
The lul before the storm. Jane is not normally this sedate, as seen in the next page.
I liked the wraps as well. It left the character up to the readers imagination.
