When Albert uses the hall pass, he couldn’t have imagined the adventure he’d have on his way to the rest room.
Cornered by Wally, Albert must find a way to out-smart the school bully and his goons, all the while dodging the hall monitors who roam the school.
An original short story by Trevor Mueller with art by Gabriel Bautista, this installment continues the story about the foreign exchange student from another planet!
Before we start, yes…I am aware that the angel / devil pair are pointing in opposite directions from where Trevor is looking in the next panel. This was partly done on purpose for a joke…but also partly used because I was a little rushed on this page.
And yes, panel 4 has a girl wearing body paint. I finally included a naked lady in the comic. Be happy.
So the forest we were taking these shots in had a lot of desaturated color to it. Not sure if the green of the leaves was offsetting everything, but it was a lot of fun to play in. Until you start trying to include other images into the shots. Suddenly you find out that it’s so bright and vibrant that it doesn’t mesh well with other outside images. Even the devil / angel photos have to be desaturated to look like they fit into the shots. It’s a lot of work.
However, the good news is this – I’ve been playing with later pages and there’s even more techniques that are totally new to the mix. This story is a ways off from ending, but the ending will be fun and hopefully a shock to most readers – in a good way. Like most horror stories, I try to include a twist.
But maybe I’ve given away too much already….
Anyway, I’m off to a wedding this weekend. Stay warm out there!
