On Ninjak 4, a farewell.

 


Hi everyone, Javier here.


 Turns out I'm not in the book anymore, this is the last On Ninjak post. The blog has tried making visible some of the work that I've been doing on the series, let's end it in the same way.

 My work on issue # 4 was already made, and it is included here, to finalize the post. The official issue #4 was released one week ago, so this one is a fan-fiction now, or a What If, even so, its existence should still be of interest to anyone interested in how comics work and are made. Two comics that come from the same script are a privileged window into storytelling on their own.
 
 The only thing that I'd ask for is to do the first reading of every one of them separately, dedicating the necessary time to properly enjoy the reading experience that each comic provides. That experience is, in the end, what it's all about, and should be at the center of any possible analysis.


   This has been a blog about comic storytelling, the posts cover topics related to each issue of the Ninjak series that I've worked on. Everyone is invited to read them.


 Thanks for reading, see you around.

In short, blog's about my work On Ninjak.   In an interview about the series that I did some weeks ago ( https://www.gamesradar.com/ninjak-1-and-how-javier-pulido-reminds-us-how-bold-and-daring-comics-can-be/ ), I talked about how my work process essentially consists on rewriting the story, but visually. I also commented that, in order to properly explain the work, it'd be a good idea to focus on something especific, a page or scene from the book, as a complement to the things explained there. This blog is in part about that.   The idea is that one post will accompany the release of every issue. The current post is about one specific page, i...

       Hello everyone.    It's been a while since the last post, which was meant to close the blog, but. Recently the trade paperback containing the three issues I worked on came out, it's the final form of the work and there are a few new changes I want to comment on, along with the overall editing. Also about some things that were pending.  So, let's start with the...                                                                                                   Figure 1    Cover.   Unlike ...
