I love this course David, just curious though are you teaching how to create an entire 20 page comic? I'm already taking story graphics and penciling from the Kubert School via correspondence. I'm getting critiques from them on my assignments, but if you'd ever love to give me critique on my storytelling or art I'd be more than happy to receive it.

LESSON NOTES

Comic icon David Finch is here to teach you how to master one of the most important elements of making dynamic comic art-- shading. He’ll take you through the steps of making effective shadows, and explain the difference between different types of shadows, like cast shadows and body shadows. If you found this lesson useful and want to learn more about making your own comics, check out David’s full course!

So looks like you're going to do a second page which is fine, are you going into a little more detail on reference? I know you've presenting using reference on scene selection and representation, maybe just things to look for or just to make sure that you're using the reference correctly.
