However, he proceeded to show off a comic that had a uniform line weight. The characters didn't really stand out against the background and lines didn't taper, but it did include values, silhouette, and color. I almost wanted to ask his thoughts on that but wasn't sure if I should.

I've seen lines done differently. Whether the artist does some initial inking and then goes back in to define line weight or it is done from the get-go. My professor believes if an artist has to work in two steps for line weight, then it is essentially a poor or dead drawing. I find myself doing both sometimes. What are your thoughts on this? What would you say about line weight in general and what your process is?

I've included a sample page from my comic project.

Any helpful advice is welcome! ^_^
