I like your comic: it is well drawn, ironic and full of fascinating information about Jewish culture… And I love the fact that the heroine here is a young girl with plaits and a long skirt: I was tired to read comics full of hyper-grown and almost naked super-women and iron-muscled heroes!
Keep the good job, you have a wonderful gift!

Yochva, you’re right, that is Zindel.

Chris, I’m glad you liked it. Although often, I try and keep my angles very everyday and ordinary; I think most of us view life from eye level, so it often feels more natural than using extreme angles all the time.

I really like how you use angles that are very uncharacteristic in most webcomics to portray something– like the top panels where you show where she’s walking. It gives the effect of being so much larger than something 2-dimensional, as if you were immersed instead of observing.

Hee hee hee. I saw that, and my reaction was, “That’s her brother! Isn’t it? It is, right? Ha! It is! Ha ha!”

Well done, this is so amusing at the same time as being so serious.

I like that it’s being reinforced that she’s just a little girl… with the nightmare and now the determined, vigilant walk to find the troll… where she completely fails to notice the sleeping man as she walks by him.
