... 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..

I'm kind of biased, because I'm so used to Right-left by now I tend to read 'normal' stuff backwards.

But unless you're so used to the style it'd be hard to readjust, I'd say Left-right since it's, you know, English. Besides, like Angie said, manga style is more than reading layout.

When it comes down to it though, just do whichever you're more comfortable with. You can't please everyone, and honestly, I think which way it reads is an awfully minor thing to begin with. The story and the characters are what people should be focusing on, y'know?

Nah, I think I have it decided now. I have everything else pretty much figured out, it's just more like "Well gee, should I hop on the bandwagon with some of these other DA-comics or whatever and be 'cool', or should I just be technical?"... And technical just seems more... technical. So no trying to be better than everyone XD

Left to right was what I was leaning more towards doing anyway pet peeves and horrible habits aside, just wanted to hear what some others thought.

Whoa, caught me offguard there seeing my name, but I agree with you! It's totally up to her, I mean, she's the one drawing it. Grif should do whatever makes her happy~ Just get your story across, who cares in the end? XD

Well.. I'll have fun with it in any case, at least. Just knowing how to do is a different matter all together X3 and how many followers I get--..wait.. >>
