Description Small Comics, episode six - the devil's paperwork

previous //next

This episode, probably more than any other one, will make no sense out of context. Please see the archive for previous installments! :]

Hey, sorry this took so long--scholarly worries have me swamped. With any luck the next 12 pages will be up faster...and finally one mystery will be solved. Thanks for sticking by this madness. ;o; See you next time~

Holy mackerel, you're awesome. Thanks very much for reading through it all, I can't wait to put out more for you.

I haven't read much of Sandman (YET), but I'm familiar with some of his other works--all so bizarre and fantastic and inspiring. It's an honor to be compared to him. Thanks again!

hey, no problem - you've got masses of talent and I'm so glad you're sharing that with everyone here so I could find it and all your other work (How To Breathe On Land really struck a chord with me too, congrats on the DD!)

Will the amazing never end? (I hope not....)
Othello has one of the more intriguing character designs here. How'd ya ever get the idea to make an owl-man? It's perfect for his job description, too. *Bows to your genius*

Thanks for sharing!

Yep, he's probably one of the most fun to draw. And that's exactly what happened! I knew I wanted some powerful minion managing Records...which led to "bookish" which led to "wise" which led to "owl head + monocle", somehow. xD

Pshh, thank YOU for reading!

SomethingFerocious In reply to blueLudebar [2009-02-08 06:46:28 +0000 UTC]

Ah, that word "minion"... Always makes me think of armies of shifty guys in sunglasses and badly tailored suits. But monocles are WAY cooler.

SO UNEXPECTED. Thus causing me to el oh el.

And the last panel is effing amazing. I've always had some odd fascination with Nicolette, I guess I just see potential in her, idk. And of course Othello? (is that right?) is amazing too.

Fantastic job as always, +fave.

Ooh! I've been to Calarts for a National Portfolio Day. It's sooo pretty there. The school is pretty nice too.

I'm really shooting for PNCA in Portland, OR; just sent my app. and materials this week. After that if I don't get in (they'll be notifying me of my status in two weeks) I'm gonna check into Otis, Moore College of Art & Design, and, of course, Calarts.

My jaw dropped when I saw the last page. Seriously, just like the emote.

I mean, that must have taken forever and a day! I love it, could you post that by itself?

Okay, all fan boyishness aside, great job! I think it was very clever to make Kara's mom unable to see fate, that got me wondering if she could see her hair as well, and that was answered right after I wondered that to myself.

The school scene was very clever, making us see how paranoid Kara has become. But alas, as with every situation, there is a shining light. You did a very wonderful job of restoring Kara's cheerful demeanor. I just wonder what Fate will do when she reads the papers.

The Devil seems pretty livid, or at least upset. And Nicolette... D:
Man, this is gonna get far more interesting! Plus I can't help but wonder if Abe and Marilyn will ever show up again. There is much wonder and beauty to behold in the universe/Whale of the Blue Lude bar!

Okay, I'm sure you are blinded by my message, so thank you for another blue lude update! I can't wait for the next one! I'll be waiting.

HAHA! Oh, the mental images. Yep. That page took like a week...mostly because I was afraid to color it for the longest time. And yeah! You're the second person who's asked that, haha. It'll be posted by itself as a poster version (without the word balloon) once I get a better photo.

Ah thanks! I knew I had to do some more exposition stuff with Kara, but I worried it'd be boring. Glad it worked out for you in this episode! These pages were buildup for the next part...without getting too specific, pretty much everything you wondered about is going to appear. OHOHO.

BLINDING VOIP! Ow, my tan lines. Hey, I'm just happy this inspired such a huge comment at all. You're always a big ole' boost to the work ethic, as you well know. I'll be working, sir. :]

I would love to have that picture on a shirt, even with the word bubble!

Blue Lude boring? That's like saying that the Saint Paul's cathedral is just another building! Even during the slow bits, you can see so much. There is a never ending supply of awesome in every panel! And I can not wait to see what happens, because not knowing why everyone wants Kara's soul is sort of driving me crazy, soon I'll start seeing the Whale X-ing signs everywhere!

You are always welcome, now I will go out of my way to give big comments! They will be so long you'll be on the phone with a friend and be all "T-dog, Naptime, don't make the same mistakes I did, you guys are young, you have you're whole lives ahead of you, me?
