Y'know, even though I have no exact idea of what my eventual daily (for a month) project will be, I thought I'd dig out my Travis Charest "Spacegirl" collection to have a look at his one panel a page format. I'll never be as good as him (look at the examples above for some great artwork) but I think I might change my ideas to a panel a day. However, this means that there would only be 20 panels (3 and a bit "full" pages) over a month so I might still keep to my original idea. The single panel looks much nicer though...
In the mean time, here's something else I've done recently....

Nice spacey scene dude. Flash Gordon or something -esque?
You're not telling me Charest did one of those panels a day? One a year more like.
Howzabout 2 square panels a day, that'd make for a nice 8 or so page strip.
Well, I dunno if Spacegirl was completed at the rate of a panel a day, although even though it's pretty detailed (though not quite as precise as Charest's "proper" comic work)he should still have been able to complete a panel a day...
As to my pic (which blew up massive online!), it's 1950s Wally Wood EC sci-fi homage (in that I tried to emulate the style without swiping the art--though all the tech used is a Frankensteinian cribbage from various panels chopped together in new combinations and angles)...but the character shown was deliberately modelled as a Flash Gordon type head on a Wood type space costume.
