"We're stuck..." "Stalled really..." "We're stuck"

This happend to me last year. I had a really hard time starting off a comic book from scratch, but I had the basic structure to help walk me through it. With these next three comics I don't even have the structure. With two of them, I had previous structures, but I had to dump them completely. One was dumped because it was crap, and the other was dumped because it was copyright infringement. So this is just small update to say, progress is a bit stalled at the moment.

Back to Scratch.

I have now finished the second draft of the first issue of Bounty. I'm definitely going to revisit it again. I still like it, but parts of the timing feel off, even though it is my second longest first issue I've done so far. Small confession, I really hate writing first issues, the initial introduction of plot and characters always frustrates me. If I can just move into the bits where they are already established that would be awesome. But that simply can't be done.
So now What I have to do is work on the next three issue ones on my plate. G.L.A.S.S, Organics, and the space jobbie. All of which I'm going on from scratch. They have no pre existing drafts for me to work off of, which means I'm going to have to cycle through them twice before I visit anything else I've already scripted. Tomorrow I'm going to try to make a big push. If I can script the first issue of Organics in a day, I will be straight proud of myself. If not, oh well, but we shall see.
