I think if this happens—a really big IF—it should be without balloons and captions.

Opinions?

I’m all for whichever way you want to go.

If it does have your original lettering, I’m for that. The lettering in the
“finished” book are different enough that yours from the penciled pages
would be more of an “original” product.

I'd love to see the pages unencumbered. But happy either way.

I'm all for it. Even if the penciled version does not include the "throwaway" pages.

I think publishing the pencils would be amazing! That would
make for a wonderful book. And just showing the art would
distinguish it from the baloons/captions version originally
featured here on the website.

I guess I go the other way - I really like seeing the balloons on the pages in the original art.

I’d say minus balloons/captions.

I'm by no means saying that it's 100%, but I'm guessing the
*vast* majority that would be interested in pencils-only
would already have the published, full comic version. So
pencils only should actually be pencils only, to be
something special and wholly different. No lettering, no
balloons.

No balloons and captions would make for a great companion book!
