Looks fine... I guess the only thing to comment on would be the story because once one labels him/herself "indy" then art guidlines are thrown out the window. Like the law's of physics meeting a singularity at the interior of the event horizon in a blackhole or the second before the beginning of the universe. Rules don't apply or things can't be measured.

i dont know if i agree with that.... will eisner, joe kubert, and many others have taken their art outside of the mainstream but the rules still apply

What the hell do you mean by that? I hate to be rude but there are "indy" guys/gals that can draw circles around any "mainstream person". I think you're dismissing a group of artists and writers who deserve respect because you don't like their style. Believe me 'Rules' are just as important in that niche of the industry as they are in yours, they just have a different set of them. Both 'sides' of the industry though have a lot of elitist know-it-alls running around, who think their sh-- don't stink. I like Comics. Period. I don't give a damn who puts them out who draws them..If they work they work. Don't limit yourself to genres sub-genres and blah blah...You'll miss out on some good stuff.

Great storytelling. I really enjoy the dialogue; it comes off very natural. The story and characters are very interesting. I thought it was great how you introduced the daughter with the foreshadowing of something bad with the squid-sense. That was really well done. You have an excellent grasp on how to keep a story moving and how to keep things interesting. Keep up the excellent work!
