Biting Off More Than Can Be Masticated

I have done some careful planning on the idea of an epic comic (epic poem + comic strip) and come to the conclusion that one will have to come after the other.  A comic strip on the scale that I am looking to do (a maximum of 10,000 panels) would require somewhere between ten to twenty volumes, given the physical limitations that printed book can have.

Phase one will be to finish writing the epic poem (a maximum of 10,000 lines of verse).  My target for this is to have it complete before I turn 31 (my next prime birthday).  Certainly feasible, given that everything is set up for it, including Affect Engineering.

Phase two will be the comic strip illustration aspect that incorporates the epic poem.  Making it available as a web-comic would seem to be the logical route to go before the next prime birthday (37).

Thirty lines of verse and then five illustrated panels per day. They both seem within reach.
