My dream is to draw comics

pilot_starIt seems altogether rather stupid of me to want to do this, but there is seriously nothing I want to do more than draw comics.
Honestly. Some people think they want to draw comics when they actually want to do pinups and covers, but I actually want to draw comics. Like, sequentially.
Anyway, here are two pages of comic I drew randomly.
The story is kinda a story I've been workin on for a while.
Oh. Those.
Well, I can't help it. :/
Anyway, it's generally takes place in a futuristic-past-hong kong-esque city that is terrorized by black markets, gangs, and androids. Lots of fighting ensues.
I kinda plan on making it into a webcomic whenever I get better at drawing.
I smell burning cedar, for some reason.
Anyway, Nyang saw that and she said "You've started to adopt the comic book style of storytelling."
I'm reasonably sure it's the other way around. The technique is called "decompression", and it's one that American comics have adopted from mangas. As far as I know, anyhow.
For some reason, Windows has decided to block all my mp3 files, rendering me musicless.
It goes something like this:
Me: Nyang, will you send me some songs?
Nyang: *sends The Departed soundtrack*
Me: *recieves The Departed soundtrack*
(Not that we would do something as immoral and sacreligious as download music. Us? No way in hell!)
Me: *tries to open song*
Windows: WINDOWS HAS DEEMED THIS FILE HARMFUL.
Windows: IF YOU LISTEN TO THIS SONG, IT WILL TAKE OVER YOUR BRAIN.
Windows: AND IT WILL PROCEED TO TAKE OVER THE MINDS OF EVERYONE YOU MEET. ONCE YOU BITE THEM.
Windows: WINDOWS HAS BLOCKED THIS FILE TO PREVENT MASS-CHAOS.
Me: But... but... but... the Departed! ;__;
On a side note, I watched the Departed last night. Not as good as Infernal Affairs, in my opinion, probably for the following reasons:
Conclusion: It's mostly because Tony Leung isn't in it, and I'm a huge Tony fangirl. :/
Oh well!

On a side note, I watched the Departed last night. Not as good as Infernal Affairs, in my opinion, probably for the following reasons:
- I kept getting Damon and DiCaprio mixed up, until DiCaprio let his testosterone take over and grew a stubble-beard.
- Tony Leung isn't in it.
- Tony Leung pwns them all.
- It didn't have the same amount of character depth as Infernal Affairs, what with Sullivan not really having the internal conflict that he was supposed to.
- The entire point of the movie was that they were both wondering if they were doing the right thing/on the right side, but that didn't happen in The Departed.
- I thought some parts that ought to be more subtle weren't. Like that elevator scene. It was more subtle and moving in Infernal Affairs.
- The ending. Seriously. What. The fuck.
Conclusion: It's mostly because Tony Leung isn't in it, and I'm a huge Tony fangirl. :/
Oh well!
