Ahh i always like titles that are "part of" the strip and not just some plain typed text stuck on as an afterthought!

Last one's a homage to the old "Ivy's Nightmares" single panel feature :wink:

The middle three title panels have definitely appeared in the comic at different points. I'm not sure whether the final one you've shown has been in it, but I don't think I've seen the top on the comic yet.

It's nice to have a good range of title panels for the strip, as it does add to the visual interest of the page.

Glad everyone's enjoying the new Ivys so far :cheers:

Would you dare to attempt a Will Eisner Spirit style title header?

Mind you it could be a lot of work that is then turned down by the editor.

I like the way you show time passing in the same panel..

Also its nice Ivy is more a menace again..
The strip reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes..which I love..
also because its more cartooney you can do more fantasy stuff..or extreem stuff like when Ivy smashes through a window after being hit by a punch bag for example.
