Wait, Make a Terrible Comic Day exists???

This is very fitting for me to finally share this comic since May is Mental Health Awareness Month. I made this comic back in 2022 for one of my English classes at my college. I believe the assignment was to make a proposal. This comic was originally going to be in my college's literary magazine, Una Voce. I believe I submitted in 2023 and got accepted and picked up a certificate at the college and met this really nice lady who was behind the magazine. However, years has passed and I never heard any updates or seen anything recent on the college's website. I assume that the magazine had been quietly cancelled. And then, I heard even worse news on 4/22 after research and seeing a Facebook post from my college. The lady who was behind the event had passed away in January of cancer. It was very heartbreaking to hear the tragic news this late and it had me in tears (didn't help that I was feeling depressed for days). It's finally time for me to share this comic to all since...

Yes, that's me! On April 24th, my proof copy of my original manga/comic finally arrived.  I am happy to announce that the title of my original comic is titled "SaGia"! More details coming soon. If you want to see the short reaction, it's up on my Instagram @wimbearn. The full reaction of my unboxing is up on my YT channel! Thanks to my mom's permission, I can finally show my original characters that I've been working on in private (even while I was taking so many mental breaks away from social media). I have been working on SaGia since 2021! Holding it in my hands for the first time... almost made me cry. I recently approved of my proof copy and the physical version will be printed out by Comix Well Spring . I haven't worked on the digital version yet. In my full reaction, I said that the bleed is showing on the front and back covers (white and black borders). I did use their manga template provided but I guess they adjusted it based on the size of my spin...

Just a joke, but that would be so funny if she actually did this. If Launch was affected like the others turning into kids, I wonder how well she can use her other weapons 🤔. Made this comic last night because I was bored and kept thinking about the " A knife" kid video. Happy Friday! ko-fi.com/wimbearn

I had left this one sitting in Procreate for a while. I started drawing the comic in October 2021 and completed it in October of last year. I had an idea of turning one of Cartoon Network's MAD skits/shorts that I remember watching as a kid into a manga/comic: "Go Dragon Ball Go!". And now, I will be putting it out there for you to read. And no, this is NOT my original comic that I had gotten copyrighted last month. I will save details later as I am working on self-publishing. I decided to keep Diego, Swiper, and Baby Jaguar's design as they looked in MAD, but I changed the Dragon Ball characters to look like their official designs rather than the bootleg, copyright-free versions MAD used. Enjoy! Note: Reads right to left like a manga. ------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for reading! Enjoyed this comic?
