**Hello all!**

[indent]I have a question – I’m looking into scanners as I’m planning to do

somewhat of a graphic novel for a grad project next year. Ergo, a  
lot of scanning will need to be done. I have a beat up Epson something  
right now, but I’m just wondering – what’s the best brand/model/whatever  
for illustrative work? It seems that everything is tailored towards  
scanning photos. And I’m not going to ask those idiots at Future Shop…

Thanks! Please respond with whatever info you have.

Thanks again,  
Mark(decisionman)
