... I need honest opinions.

Left-right, or Right-left?


I'm drawing closer(lolpun?) to comicing. Or at least whatever attempt I finally have for it. Sort of finally have a starting plan. I just.. don't know which way I should lay it out. Left-right sounds more logical, because I'm not Japanese. However, in a way I feel more wanting to do right-left since I do want it to be slightly more manga-esque instead of just.. "comics"(because honestly whenever I think of Western comics, what comes to mind is either stuff like Garfield, or stuff like Marvel/DC.. which is just a whole different kind of nerd I really don't care for). Plus.. I am more used to that style now.

... But I'm also worried if I don't, I'm just gonna be accused of being Wapanese. But really, I feel like I'm just gonna be some kind of wannabe no matter what I do.


And before people ask, yes, I do want to get the thing published if I get enough people to like it. And yes, it will for the most part be a webcomic too... probably..

If it's in English, I find it confusing to have it left to right, unless it's a manga that's translated from Japanese I honestly see no point. You can make Japanese manga-styled comics in the western structure, making it left-right does not take away from the stylization of the comic.

Comics from Japan are left right-left when translated by most book companies because they're trying to retain the original intentions of the artist. You don't need to 'translate' anything, so I see no need to be right-left.

I think that's probably what I'm gonna do then...

Well, I'll see what other people have to say first.


But I do appreciate the feedback ♥

Yeah, it's up to you. Do whatever you think it's best and good luck on your comic!
