I apologize if this is the wrong place for this kind of thing, but I am just overwhelmed with excitement, and I wanted to share this with you all.
They physical copy of my first comic book, The Gamma Gals, Issue #1 arrived today in the mail, and I'm just over the moon. I've been drawing comic books since 1993, when I was 14 years old, and it has been my dream to one day actually complete one and have it on my shelf. 22 years later, I finally completed my first issue, and the physical copy arrived today! I can't tell you how fantastic of a feeling it is to see something through to the end, and then be able to hold it in my hands and flip the pages.
I'm not trying to pimp my book or sell it, I just wanted to share with GAF this milestone in my life as an artist. This is literally the fulfillment of a 22 year old dream, and I hope that other people who may read this post can get some encouragement from it if they were in a similar period of listlessness as myself. Don't be discouraged, and don't be your own worst enemy and talk yourself out of trying!
If this isn't appropriate for this thread, I'll gladly edit my post. I just wanted to share my excitement with my fellow comic book lovers!
Anyway, I'm super behind on my list. I've been reading Jem, Invincible, The Walking Dead, All New X-Men, Ms. Marvel, and Miles Morales, but there is so much more I'm behind on, or haven't even started collecting. I'm trying to balance my monthly budget between comics and video games.
What else should I be picking up during my next round? I haven't been into DC comics the past few years, but I've been meaning to pick up Geoff John's run on Green Lantern. I have no idea where to start with that one, however.
