Hello.

I'm having a problem with my quick selection tool, when I select a portion of my comic strip, the whole canvas is highlighted when I'm on a different layer from the inked comic strip layer...Any help?

You may have "Sample All Layers" checked.

In addition, reset tools as stated in previous thread by Sahil.

Hi there,

What happens when you select the comic strip layer and then create a selection?

If the tool is not working as expected, you may try resetting the Quick Selection Tool and see if that helps. https://helpx.adobe.com/in/photoshop/kb/basic-troubleshooting.html#tool

What are the Tool’s settings, in particular »Sample All Layers«? 

Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible?
