Another voice from the Peanut gallery!
Considering the first comics that I ever drew were Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang back in third or fourth grade, I had to commemorate this occasion. I used to have notebooks filled with my own little stories and I got really good at drawing most of the characters popular at the time (and earlier, because my older brothers had older books).
If I had any problem, it was that they were too tall. I'd start them from the top, too high above the ground. (I drew the ground first. I don't know why.) No one explained the concept of "three heads tall" until, oh, college or after. Then it sort of clicked, but I was doing other things by then. Like Super-Stick-Man!
This isn't my first Peanuts-oriented comic, by the way. Anyone remember the first one?
I also write Fiction!You can now order Devilish And Divine, edited by John L. French and Danielle Ackley-McPhail, which contains (among many, many others) three stories by me, Christopher J.
