Thank for putting both the vertical and the horizontal comics. And after reflection, I just realized why I really prefer the horizontal setting (as a franco-belgian BD reader): (1) the vertical setting offer only a sequential reading when (2) the horizontal one offers both a sequential reading (case by case) and a global reading

Elaborating on this, comics (taken in its wider meaning) can be enjoyed on many levels: cases, line, page and facing pages. Each contribute to the art and bring dynamic, meaning and “mood” tp the comic

I hear ya. I prefer it in its original, but so many people don't read it that way and I have to meet them where they are. My hope is to collect the strips and publish them all horizontal. Thanks for the perspective!

oh yes, please publish them ! I would be the first to buy it / crowdsource it !

and with the roughs, the tests, the rejected ... it brings life to the whole and a while widening new perspective
