Publication history edit

Development edit

  • "Jonathan Luna had previously created comics with his brother Joshua, but was exhausted after six straight years of work." --> No source
  • "Inspired by a TED Talk, he decided to take a sabbatical." --> No source
Both of these points came from the same source, which is at the end of the paragraph. Do you want me to cite each sentence?
No, that won't be necessary. Thanks anyway; I understand now. Carbrera (talk) 21:55, 26 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • "Inspired by a TED Talk, he decided to take a sabbatical." --> "Inspired by a TED Talk, he decided to take a break from working." (Not everyone may know what a sabbatical is.)
  • What year was Star Bright and the Looking Glass published in?
  • "Beginning January 2013, they discussed the project for three or four months and created an outline for the whole story.[1][4]" --> "After initializing the concept in January 2013, the two discussed the project for three or four months before creating an outline for the whole story.[1][4]"
