Terry being quite rude. Still working on a happy medium for the mice and City Silent. They have a hell of a life, considering that they appeared in ONE panel in Tamino. They weren't even characters, just two little punks Tamino questioned on his way. Since then, they've shown up quite a bit and will play a large part in City Silent. Tezuka used to have this cast of characters that would show up in his comics, almost like a corral of actors selected to play parts. I really like this idea and while I wasn't considering this on purpose, it's almost worked out that way. Smatt and Terry (and their cousin Rooster) haven't really changed parts so much as filled different needs. Smatt and Terry have been in Tamino, a short comic called "Last Stop Right," and Rooster joined them for "Smatt's Journey," which was a comic about me dealing with the death of my mom. Rooster died in that one but what the hell, he's the most fun to draw of the three. Terry is usually the more quiet, laid back of them but even he will have his moments in City Silent. Howard, too is from Tamino and has stepped up to a larger part. The comic will change in act 2 mostly as I will have to introduce word balloons (gasp). The mice will all be singing aloud, not thinking as Silas does. It will change the aesthetic in a way I hope will add more feeling of graffiti to the comic.
