But your explanations and reasoning in favor of one has helped me a lot on the issue. I'm still unsure of what I want to do, but at least I understand what I'm considering now. I'd love to read more opinions on this subject.

But if you look at Bone by Jeff Smith, his stuff is very children friendly but it’s still a comic. It’s really hard for me to understand this whole agent thing yet. It seems like you need to find one who has interest in what you are trying to do otherwise you will just be fighting an uphill battle.

I also highly suggest not starting by looking for a agent. I think if you are starting out then it’s better to try to get something published first. There are book publishers who will take open submissions I am told like Tor Books. But it’s all a matter of finding a worthy publisher like Tor who will also want to publish what you are trying to focus on. I’ve decided to self publish this first graphic novel so I can do it the way I want and then if it’s any success I can use that success to find a real publisher or agent for my next one.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you around here more.

it’s tricky..
