Someone said on “Riverside” how Gartner reminded them of Dennis (?) Weaver-I see Burt Reynolds. But that’s perhaps because I’ve seen a few too many Texas-set movies recently.
But to the real meat of my comment: I’m enjoying the art and storyline. I keep forgetting just how much I like straight-down-to-it stories, no magic, no sci-fi. I can’t wait for the next episode!
Ah, Sam… I just love that runaway mouth of his. I’m with HellJack on this one: the dialogue is really top score.
The art is a perfect, sober reflection of the content, and Our Hero Sam is an awesome interpretation of the gritty-noir-detective archetype.
Top score, folks. Top. Score.
I’m liking this already. I followed the link from Ma3 about a week ago and I have to say, I love the way the story is going. kudos to the writer especially on pinning down the best character dialog choices and the art has the “light-and heavy” feel that I always get from my favorite noir stories. This is definitely something I’ll be following.
She Died In Terrebonne is a year-long mystery set in rural Oregon in the 1970s. It updates every Thursday at noon. It is written by Kevin Church and drawn by T.J. Kirsch. Write to them at kimimura@agreeablecomics.com.
I’m really starting to like Sam. He seems like a good egg.
(Possibly for noirish values of good, but still.)
Sam Likes YOU, Jim.
Wow. This is pretty damn good. Is it bad that I can hear all this dialogue in my head, sort of like an old time radio drama?
Keep it up! Loving this strip, and looking forward to the crazy sci-fi cross-over with Loneliest Astronauts.

Thank you. That’s a very nice compliment. I do work to craft dialogue that “sounds” good even if it’s not spoken.
This is looking more and more like Naoki Urasawa’s Monster.
I’ll definitely be sticking around well into the rising action.

Followed the link from Ma3… nice start! Clean artwork, sharply written dialog.
