Black Tie Dinner pt.1

I wanted to do a comic to introduce Jacqueline properly for a while, thought of using Ken simply because they're both primarily black and white colored, and I could do it grey scale/manga style. I still have problems using tones in Clip Studio so gave up and went back to normal color.
Started writing the comic out and realized I was running at the mouth, like the first 10 pages was just Ken and Jackie taking before anything got started. So, then I switched gears and decided I'd do no dialogue and just tell the story with images. Beginning didn't make sense without words so switched again and decided to trim the story down to the smallest panel count possible.
And that's where we are now, I have a few comic ideas for Dani and crew, but for each idea, I always came up with page after page of talky-talk like I was writing for a HBO adult drama, instead of, ya'know, porn. Hopefully this experiment with Ken and Jacqueline will open the door to the other ideas I have that have no right being as wordy as they are.

Don’t be afraid to throw in a page of just dialog. Especially if it’s essential to the story. Or even a half-page like comic books do. Find what works.
