I like the coloring on this. good work.
The art and the coloring on this is amazing, and I really like the concept of a “picture puzzle”. Heh.
Off to a great start! Very interesting stuff.
Good stuff, well told visually and verbally. Its a premise we’ve seen before kind of twisted around and I like that.
