Misunderstanding Comics

Here's a little comic I was inspired to create after re-reading Scott McCloud's 'Understanding Comics' :
You might need to re-read it a couple of times...

    Fabulous stuff, James.

    "If they give you lined paper, write the other way" and all that.

    Inspired.

    Excellent. I think I need to read it again!
    "If they give you lined paper, write the other way" - who said that (originally)?

    '"If they give you lined paper, write the other way" - who said that (originally)?'

    There seems to be some debate on the subject but many people (myself included) know it from it being quoted on the frontispiece of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. He attributed it to someone called Juan Ramón Jiménez - a Spanish poet. Oh, and I always remember it as "lined paper" but the preferred translation seems to be "ruled paper".

    But enough of that. Can we get back to saying how good James's strip is now please?
