I'm loving these! And while I am always a big fan of highly chromatic images, I would suggest watching how you edited these. It almost hurts to look at them.
I would have to agree with Rico, while the sketch's are fine with some fairly interesting things happening(the worker checking out the display case, on your middle page, is your strongest). It looks something went horribly wrong in the editing phase. If you adjusted levels or bumped up the contrast to make your images more apparent. Stop it. If that isn't the case i would stop using this scanner.
Shannon, Some of these are really strong and I think your choices of subjects is good, overall. You're still working around your subjects, though - try working into them. A lot of them end up being a shape of a coat, then the shape of legs, then the shape of a head, then feet, etc. It think this takes away from putting gesture in a pose. I don't mind if I see working lines - and neither should you. The goal here isn't finished, beautiful drawings. It is capturing weight shift and gesture, while still making an individual character.
