Hey, I'm new here!

[JTBPreston]

Hello and happy birthday, Newgrounds! You got yourself a new member, me of course! Anyway, let me tell you a bit about myself. I'm J.T.B Preston, but you can call me "James" for short. I'm 22 and I am an artist, so that means I'll be submitting to the Art Portal most often. I've visited this website countless times in the past, but today I have joined and my profile's a bit under construction at the moment, but I'll get there...

Welcome to newgrounds! What kinda art do you like best?

[HolidayJester]

I like art with a good amount of detail, something you can't stop staring at. I've already uploaded my first submission, but it isn't my first ever work of art. There's a lot more on my deviantART: http://theblooman.deviantart.com/

Welcome !

Good luck here!

This place allows a lot of stuff the stuffy, uptight deviantart rules don't, so let your creative vibes go up the crazy tree!

I was going to say that your art needs a lot of improvement, but then I noticed the part where you mentioned mspaint.

My reaction

Your protagonist is going to have autism. Don't take this as insult but do you happen to have autism and is this your way of showing other people what it's like to live with it?

Autism sounds like a cool and exciting superpower for a DC comic hero to have!!!

Yes, I have autism myself. And my webcomic will depict what it's like to live with it and how some things are viewed differently. In a realistic way. The Curious Incident of The Dog In the Nighttime by Mark Haddon is one of the inspirations for it.
