The Voyage of the James Caird, re-do

Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes, well...the bear eats you.
So I was drawing the next set of pages for the Shackleton story and I realized with horror that, though the pages were turning out ok, but I was no longer pushing myself--I was in a morass, a comfort zone, if you will. Concurrently, I been reading up a bunch of Krazy Kat and the more I read the more embarrassed I became about my own lack of imagination, or better said, my laziness in drawing forth my imagination.
So, taking inspiration from Herriman I have redrawn the first page of The Voyage of the James Caird. I hope you like!
Read the first version, or read the first story that I drew about the real-life adventurer, Sir Ernest Shackleton, PATIENCE CAMP.
