the image is well speakin by itself.. but the final senstence of yours indeed is the greatest gem. True... and hard to accept sometimes innit?

Meli, I was about to release the comic without words, but the twist of "invisibility" would have been lost (I don't know if it's even necessary)...so I went for the naive approach and made it easy for the reader.

indeed, this work could perfectly be free from the bonds of words! pure, rhythmic, harmonic and melodic tension, in a superb drawing composition!!

well - I agree with those b4 me - and I like the way you delivered the message of the strip... but I really like your image-style, and your use of framing, using a diverse Points of View, use of lines - simple, and clean and yet your characters are still 'alive.'. inspiring - ty

Great idea, very well expressed: your drawings have an interesting sense of perspective, with deep meanings, obtained in a simple way that instead strongly captures human's emotions. :-)

Don't lose the words. They are a perfect match for your graphic style - spare, but speaking volumes; simple, but elegant; straightforward, but straight to the point. Very poignant piece and just the kind of work that schools could use to illustrate the pain caused by - say - bullying and/or rejection. Especially impressed that you didn't identify the specifics of WHAT others see as different in Jack.

half way through I thought Jack was a sort of Tetsuo (from Akira) with mad super powers, so I'm glad you added the text. I like this, also the mood of the text, it's somewhat written in a children's language, yet a bit melancholic at the same time. It's actually a very good read for children's psychologists (or their subjects for that matter)
