Thoughts on comics told in the first person perspective and link to Lugnut and Strika Plus Inferno

Comics told in the first person perspective have always been interesting to me. Today I wrote a summary for a comic that would be told in the first person half of the time. I won't say anything about it yet other than I'm reaching for a Transformers Mosaic-esque feel. The mosaics really dig into a single character's perspective most of the time. That's what makes them readable in my opinion. The same style of first person perspective was used in IDW's Transformers Animated: The Arrival #1 which may or may not be a coincidence. Anyway The Arrival #1 one was very well written and for me it made "Transform and Roll Out" parts one, two and three seem more complete.

Now for my sitcom comic "Lugnut and Strika Plus Inferno" I'm pretty sure by now everyone on this blog knows the story but here's a brief recap.

Lugnut is Megatron's most loyal servant and because of this his wife Strika feels neglected. So in order to make him jealous she buys a pet at the pet store. This pet happens to be Beast Wars Inferno who is another Megatron's most loyal servant but no one knows this because Inferno stays in Beast Mode and so far doesn't speak. Here's the link to the comic's thread on tfw2005.com http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-funnies/272487-lugnut-strika-plus-inferno.html#post4193055

I hope you all enjoy it.
