THE SCRIPT

Every comic or Graphic novel starts with a script , when i was given the John F McDonald Hamlet script i could not believe how big it was 259 pages ( thicker than a phone directory) total panels 768 in script  plus i have added extra panels along the way,
you get some idea how big a job this has been to create a 186 page comic adaption with notes 200 pages in all in the finished product.

Here is a sample of the script as you can see i have three versions to read for every panel ,the most important thing was that the art leaves room for the large original text in every panel ,as there are three versions published original text, plain text, quick text the same artwork is reused for each version.
