K, I just read about some artist called something like henry darger or something and how he supposedly did a 15,000 page epic with drawing and that got me thinking. Maybe I should do a giant comic book that I will do one page every week until I am like 25 or something. Whadya guys think?

Darger was brilliant. He was also (literally) a nut job. He worked the way he did not because he wanted to, but because he had to.
