Welcome back to Betje’s Comics! If you like my work, please share it with a few friends. If you’re not subscribed, fill out your email for a free or paid subscription. I would be immeasurably grateful if you join us today. I don’t usually revisit my work. But when I was asked to speak at a church gathering about my climate work, the pastor said that he likes to start with a piece of content that inspires him, then build the service around that. That was interesting to me. I always start with the message, then come up with a comic to tell that story. But hey, I don’t mind trying something else every once in a while! So I decided to dig into my own pile to see if there was something we could use for the gathering.
Love this! My wife, the loving gardener, is doing the exact same thing. When we wander around town, she'll have a pocket full of sunflower seeds and upon discovering a bit of ground that won't be disturbed or mowed, she pops a few seeds into the soil. I call it "Operation Covert Beautification."
I'm with you, I love version two. I also like the text/image layout of it, the typed text highlights the images really well - works especially well on the phone as it is easier to read and the images are bigger! xo
Both work for me, but if I had to pick one it'd be the second as the words and pictures don't tell the same story. Like the handwritten words of the first.
It’s hard to choose. I like the new drawings of the second one, but I like the personal journal style of the first captions. The second set of captions are good too, I just have a soft spot for first person comics.
