1 Dollar ( Hardback )

MonkeyMafia

Say WHAT!? Featured? O' happy day!
Thanks a million to everyone who's read and commented. Big thanks to skoolmunkee for the feature and everyone who has spread the news about it. I have to say though, that this wasn't by any means a solo effort. I have to give muchas credit to my sister Holly, otherwise known as Eviltwinpixie and the author of GROG. She helped me out when all my deadlines were coming at me and introduced me to the whole concept and helped me write it. Thanks sis!

Oh yeah, this is the piece I presented for my uni project. The hardback copy.

Look out for my next effort, a 10 page short comic which will start uploading very soon. I will go back to a traditional comic format for it.

This is quite lovely, not just visually but also story-wise. I love the concept, the little stories, the way it was told almost entirely without dialogue, and how the story bookends itself... well, almost. ;) I hope you got a good mark on your project!

I decided to give an easter egg nod to this comic in DD 2009 Awards since this is one of the best works I've ever seen!

Thanks for sharing this. You should be doing children's books, they would be lovely with this kind of style if you aren't already! Of course, I would like to see anything else you do, this was really lovely. Faved.

Wow. This was an idea I'd played with in my head since I was little. You did a great job.

I saw someone mention the movie 20 Dollars. I also remember another movie with a similar theme. It was called The Yellow Rolls Royce. Believe it or not.

Save for the part with the strip club (which I still liked), the style and presentation of this, especially with the hardcover book shown, reminds me of old children's books. Well done.

The fate of many dollar bills I have heard is they get thrown into a furnace when they have circulated back to where they came from. I wonder if this is true.

PuPP- from my experience, a depressingly short amount of time. -_- We'd be talking about it, and we'd be all "THIS IS A GREAT IDEA!" and then a couple of hours later he'd show me the finished page. :'(

oooh lovely, I like the look of this comic! thats the yummy thing about comics, plenty of room for visual experiments and new things! ^_^ I look forward to what else you may draw :) Hope the Uni project went well! Are you on a course specifically for comics? I live in England, and Im doing a BA in 'sequential illustration', are you doing something similar?

Lemniskate-

It's not, but he went as insanely far as to give each bill a different serial number! It's all in the details with him.

He livesi n England, so he doesn't have access to many dollars. If he DID have that many, he should give them all to me! ;)
