Hey everyone, I wanted to direct your attention to Sin Titulo, a weekly comic strip I write and draw, that may be of interest to David Lynch fans. As a Lynch fan myself, I was very much inspired by the experimental improvisational aspects of Inland Empire and am trying to incorporate a similar mechanic to my story.

Sin Titulo is a neo-noir mystery about a young man investigating the suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of a relative and being drawn into a strange and surreal underworld. Apparently I'm unable to post a direct link but you can cut and paste the following into your browser:

It's completely free and there's no catch, I just thought that it may be of interest, and I'd be delighted to hear what you think. Thanks for your time and I hope you enjoy the strip.

Nice art and a good dreamy idea.

I like it a lot. Busy day today, so I'm only on page 10 so far, but I will dig in more later. The somewhat humorous tone of the ominous passages - the lady refusing the photo was in there especially - reminds me a bit of Daniel Clowes, like the early parts of Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron. (Which is high praise coming from me, btw.)

A question: Why "Sin Titulo"? Why Spanish? (Or is it Portuguese? I feel like a moron asking this question!) Or is there a reason that becomes apparent later on?

Hey guys, thanks for your feedback. I'm glad you like it!

Evenreven, the title is indeed Spanish and simply means "without title."  I chose it in the early days of working on the strip before I had a real idea of what the story was going to be about, however I do have a way to work it into the narrative which will become apparent later.  The Clowes comparison is hugely flattering and Velvet Glove was definitely an inspiration. Thanks! Hope you enjoy the rest of the story so far.

I took a short holiday break but new pages will appear weekly on Sundays starting this week (Jan. 6). Hope you keep reading!

It reminds me of some of the better parts of Gaiman's Sandman that I've read.

I have no choice now! Damned cliffhangers! Aaargh! Anyway, this is the ready-for-more-installments emoticon:

Hey there everyone, I haven't dropped in here in a while as I've been extrememly busy and haven't had much free internet time but since I got a good response to this a few months ago I thought I'd tell you that I've moved Sin Titulo to its own domain - www.sintitulocomic.com  and am continuing to add new pages to the story every week.  I've just hit my one year anniversary!
