Guest Comic – Who Watches the Inkdick?
This comic is entirely by Swiftya from Forumopolis!
Inkdick is a journal comic which is, in all honesty, kinda dull. Pranas has developed an art style that works for him, it’s pleasantly cartoony and it seems like he gets the essence of the people he’s drawing (obviously not knowing them, I can’t be sure). It’s just what he chooses to document often lacks anything interesting for outsiders and he often picks moments or subjects that make him come off as very whiny.
He seems to be missing what has made other journal-type comics, like the seminal American Splendor, work which is interesting/witty insights or additions which enhance the sequence, be they comedic or dramatic. I would suggest that he could improve by working with a writer, either to create entirely new material or to buff up Pranas’ ideas.
