NOTE: There IS some language and disturbing content in this entry. Read at your own risk.

Whew... Finally.

I wasn't sure I was going to finish this, as I only heard about the contest on Tuesday. I've never worked this fast on a book before. Couple of long nights there. Suffice it to say, I'm pretty tired right now. But it's done, and I made it with time to spare.

Anyway, since I haven't seen the movie, and the trailer and synopsis don't say much about the story, I figured instead of trying to guess where the story was going or working too much with the existing cast that I'd just take the main character, Barthelemy Karas, and do a short story about one of his earlier cases. I decided not to use any of the existing stills, so everything's produced by hand, scanned in and pieced together in photoshop. To make it easier to read, everything's been arranged in one LONG file. So all you have to do to read the thing is to SCROLL DOWN.

And please do FULL VIEW and read the whole thing because I put a lot of effort into this, and I think and hope that it pays off for you, the reader.

[link] <-- here's the contest page with synopsis and trailers for the actual movie. It'll help orient you to the world they've created and where I'm coming from with the story.

Please do let me know what you think.

THANK YOU!

Wow, this is truely an amazing short comic. Small but holds an entire story neatly in itself with smooth pace that flows wonderfully. The end really hit me, good strong emotion and choice of words. Congrats on your win, you certainly deserve it.

Thanks! :) Have you actually seen the movie yet? It's not been released yet where I am... Seems it didn't do so well in NY and LA so I'm thinking it may never be released :P.

P.S. That's an entertaining webcomic you got. :)
