Not *just* because he's my son, although that's certainly part of the equation, let me recommend a new online comic (or graphic novella) authored and illustrated by Isham Reavis.
This part of the story begins at http://pelagiancomic.com/001.html and if you click on the "Next" button (and the next, and the next, and the next . . .) it will take you through the story as it progresses. Three new pages each week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. There is more of the story that preceeds (sp?) where this episode begins but that'll come later, whether in the archives or wherever. Although the site just went up, and the archives and other parts of the site are not fully up and running just yet, click on "Cast" before you go any farther so you get the basic characters and dynamic he's exploring. His brief commentary at the bottom of each page is (IMO) emminently worth the price of admission, and then some; it's free. An example of his writing style, taken from one of those comments is below. Enjoy. Marek "I've noticed that I consistently perceive words written down as being more dour and unfriendly in tone than words spoken in my presence. I suspect the lack of vocal inflection and nonverbal cues is to blame, but: now that I am writing words which others will come across, I worry that I will fall prey to the same phenomenon. So as a favor, when in doubt, please imagine that my words are being spoken in a cheerful, somewhat naive tone - by a fat, talking baby, perhaps. Overly precocious and wise beyond its brief span, but with it's goodwill and optimism untrimmed by life's harsh lathe."
