The graphic novel no one would dare make for one reason or another is here… No spared feelings, no backhanded catering, a brutal and darkly humorous foray into the mindscape of a stand-up comic that isn’t regurgitating pop sentiment or towing the company line, risking all in the process. COMEDIAN©, the auspicious and evocative debut of comic artist and writer, Ross Zucco. A moody and striking venture into the heart of self-legitimization, vaulting ambition and the disabling personal effects of both, all with an honest, paralyzing vulgarity at the helm. Diane Moore is your comedian, a female comic unlike any other, a solemn guarantee. One night. A shattering, live televised appearance. The woman you were waiting for... without the wait.

The Spirit - Page 1 by Zucco-Art

This page suffers because the subject is a famous character by a legendary artist.  

 

With apologizes, the Spirit character is "off model".  I would never have guessed that this was the Spirit had I not read the description.

 

The continuity - the sequentials - don't work very well.  Where is the story?  In panel 1, a woman drinks.  In panels 2 through 4, there is a fight outside.  Panels 2 through 4 all have flaws and the fighting is not apparent.  

 

In panel 2, the villain's arm appears to be static - no movement.  The line and texture choices cause the arm to fall into the body of the villain.  The pose of the arm is wrong, too.  Did the guy really hit the Spirit using the outside of his fist - the little finger and ring finger?  Ouch!  Poor guy can't box.

 

In panel 3, the subject appears to be the car.  The shadow choices for the figures are wrong and makes them all look like strange spiders.

 

In panel 4, the arm and knife lack definition and look like a long crab claw.  The hand is wrong and makes the arm appear to be too long.

 

In general, in "The Spirit - Page 1" there are problems with the panel layouts, anatomy, line weights and textures.

 

When I look at your DA web site, the image called The Exorcist-sequential-Pencils-Inks really stands out.

This image is outstanding: the panels are very clear and the sequentials flow beautifully.  "The Spirit - Page 1" is not really representative of the excellence that you are capable of.
