Vignettes from The Sprawl
I've been sharing my progress with the mini-comics I've been writing and illustrating for "The Law", and a few people have started commenting on how much their enjoying the comics, and whether they might end up relating to a larger comic series.
Honestly, at this stage I'm not sure.
I'm happy writing four page comics, and maybe expanding those to six or eight pages... and themes or elements from those comics will crossover between the sequences that I'm producing, but this project isn't about the comic book, the comics are being written to support the game.
The current comic is one of those four page sequences, that will get a couple of extra pages scattered through the book it's presented in. It relates to a mysterious object that needs to be identified.
A follow up pair of pages for this comic will go into rule explanations about identifying things, and making things.
It includes two of the characters who will probably make regular appearances across a number of comics, just like the first comic included a pair of characters who will make regular appearances. I'm probably going to run with a roster of about five different agents, and a dozen citizens (some of whom will be obvious criminals, some of whom will be individuals with skills that are useful to the agents, and some of whom will be morally grey). I'm also making sure that there is a decent diversity range among the depicted characters with a mix of genders, skin tones, and other elements (while trying to avoid tokenism)
