I might illustrate a couple myself, but I'm not versatile enough to do all of them (anytime in the next 20 years) and would like to find an artist(s). I'd also like to find a publisher, natcherly. Somebody who's a fairly big name in the comics industry is having a look at a couple via FaceBook, and I sent one to a legendary comics artist who friended me on FB and sent me a cool e-mail as well. Beyond that, where do I go? I've been writing for years, I'm a damn perfectionist and my own worst critic, and I can finally honestly say I'm consistently producing darn good stuff. I'll post a link to an example for feedback, if anyone's interested.

Did you see the same movie that the director made? [spoilers] Amazingly detailed film deconstructions. Rob Ager shows how Mulholland Drive has a coherent, linear narrative that Lynch purposefully rearranged and how Kubrick gave visual and sonic clues in The Shining that all paranormal activities were actually dreams or delusions. Example: Jack Nicholson, waiting for the job interview, reads a copy of Playgirl with an article on parental incest. He freely admits some of his theories are hard to swallow, so he doesn't come off as a complete nutter.
You suck, and so does your writing "Writers have apparently always loathed and envied other members of the tribe: more famous, better paid, more fawning reviews, undeserved canonization."
