Echo!
(From 8-bit Theatre, by Brian Clevinger)
Reminding me why he’s the king of Sprite Comics, Brian Clevinger shares with us a new technique for illustrating sound in speech. The set of Echo Bubbles accompanying Fighter’s words perfectly shows us that there is an echo behind it. Where traditionally, it might be illustrated with a set of smaller bubbles connected to it, or the words hyphenated (”Echo-echo-cho-o”), Brian decides to have follow-up bubbles that they themselves fade away as the sound would.
So 39 Awesome Points™ for Brian Clevinger for being innovative.
Also, a personal note for the day. I just saw that I’m Just Saying has received 1,000 Unique Visitors for this month. That’s the largest amount that it, or anything else I have ever done has received. So yeah, I feel pretty good. Thanks are probably in order to fellows like Occultatio and T. Campbell for the linkular contributions. Many thanks, amigos.
