No, it's fine, Cole. Entertainment should be shared, it shouldn't be owned. We're all on our own personal journeys, and the art we encounter impacts that. You can read whatever one you want, whenever you want. I can let you borrow some over spring break, if you really want to try your making your own?

If it helps though, it might be easier to first take a book that already exists and draw a comic based on that, instead of trying to come up with a story yourself. You can draw about frankenstein or the American revolution, or literally anything that's been turned into a story. A lot of comics already do that. Captain America was originally based on America's conflict with Nazi Germany. It was meant to be American propaganda.

	Are you done with it? You can totally keep it until you're done, Cole. I don't mind. I have lots of stories. I read a lot. I know a lot. It depends on what you want to draw. Do you want to draw defining acts of heroism, or do you want to draw supernatural occurrences or horror stories? (Reply to this) (Parent)
