My goal is to create a modernized film noir detective story filled with elements of action and adventure.
I will attempt to develop memorable characters through plot advancement and camaraderie. The characters will bond due to their shared cynicism and experience in the unnamed city of nightmares where they reside. During the course of the story, they will face challenges both mental and physical and follow a dark path through the oppressive danger on all sides. This project is mostly a practice attempt to train myself at drawing in various ways and positions and finding out how to combine writing and graphic into a flowing story. I don't expect this to be a great piece of work, but more of a learning experience to do something serious and time consuming later. I will also be training myself to work faster and not focus too much on individual frames or details but the story as a whole.
Timeline:
I plan to complete a 15-20 page chapter of the comic by the end of the semester, completing the first part of the story and bringing the first goal to a conclusion, while hinting at a further, larger goal.
By next Monday I hope to have a general idea or outline for the overall plot and a rough draft of the first 5 pages.
The next week I will fill out the outline and rough draft outlines of several pages ahead, while working on completing more pages as well.
Once I have the outline of the story completed, i can begin roughing out the rest of the comic and continuing to make final drafts of them.

It's impossible for me to actually have any idea of just what you're suggesting, but you've done such a good job of selling nothing.
I'd ask if you'd ever considered politics, but you're far, far too awesome for that.
