After the Smoke Clears
This comic is set in a time after the good ending of Aftertale. Here, Geno is recollecting his time in the void. I think it is interesting to analyse Geno's motives for what he tried to do. I feel like not many people really dig deep into that aspect of his character, but maybe it is because Aftertale is so old, and people feel like everything has already been said about it. Regardless, I find it fun to think about how Geno feels about what he did or planned after he got out and how that would affect his relationship with Reaper. I don't feel like Geno would be the kinda guy to reveal his plans until he knows Reaper won't judge him, mess them up, or if they didn't matter to him anymore. Likewise, I'm not sure if it would sit right with Reaper. Maybe he wouldn't have cared earlier because of his disconnect with mortals, but after becoming really close to Geno, I think Reaper wouldn't feel all that great about it.
This comic took me a surprisingly long time to finish due to motivation and my constantly adding more stuff to it, but I finally just accepted it wasn't going to be perfect. It was really fun to sneak in underlying messages that are left unsaid through the use of color and dialogue, so I hope those are communicated well! I hope you guys like this!
