Dad's Nostalgia

Description

After about two weeks of work we have a high-quality six-page comic. It's going to be printed-off and put up in a college exhibition, so that explains why there is such a high-quality on an otherwise short piece B-)

This comic is quite biographical, as all the stories told in this piece are true. The only fiction would the fact that I've written this about two months before when it took place. A lot of the descriptions and much of the stuff said is either directly quoted or adapted from interviews I've had with my dad (as well as general conversation).

So there we go, a little testament to my dad and mum.

A lovely and heartwarming piece by <img class="avatar" src="a.deviantart.net/avatars/n/u/n…" alt=":iconnuclearjackal:" title="NuclearJackal" />, detailing the life of of his father and his the subsequent meeting of his mother.

I must say that Nuclear Jackal really outdid himself this time in terms of length, story-telling and attention to detail. Relaying the life story of his father and giving us all insight to how things were like before the age of computers, Nuclear Jackal weaves a story that intrigues the mind and eye through its comic book presentation. And speaking of comics, the end is rather a comedic one as well. (I can't tell you how many times that I have looked through stuff then ended up not putting it away due to some sort of interest in said object.)

Good luck Matt, and have fun in Canada! That's where all the most famous stars come from!Probably because it's always cold or snowing...<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a…" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="417" title="Sweating a little..."/>
