Description

I adore these 3 consecutive dailies for two main reasons. First and foremost, because of McWilliams' typically lovely artistry. This particular sequence really shows off his knowledge of shadow and light, and how to spot blacks well. Secondly, I love this sequence of dailies because they are somewhat of a "rarity" in that the action completely takes place in a regular earth environment as opposed to outer space where most of the dailies take place. If you didn't know better, you could be forgiven for assuming that these dailies were part of a crime fiction newspaper strip!

You know, I've actually been considering doing that lately, especially if I'm fortunate enough to come across something like one of his X-9 strips, even moreso if I could find the ABSOLUTE BEST EXAMPLE IN EXISTENCE. Yeah, that's a good idea Jeff, thanks. I'll get to work on that....

Thanks, Dan. But these are 3 old dailies, strung together to look like a Sunday!

It's so good it should have been a Sunday! Lol...it's great. All the points you make about it in the description are spot on.
