Description Page 116

I know everyone was expecting a glorious beatdown but that is not what has happened. I have my reasons. All will be explained later I promise. This is also a chance to revisit the idea of why Gemini is such a good "Gemini". He does have multiple personality disorder but it only comes out in times of serious emotional distress. You'll have to trust me on the reasons here.

Whoa....no smack-down. That's a surprise.

Also, somehow I knew that was how Scorpio would get them in.

Scorpio and Capricorn are a hilarious duo!

They are kind of polar opposites which makes them a good writing combo.

Whoa. That guy got off lucky. :-D I'm very pleasantly surprised we didn't see a relative innocent getting severely pummelled for trying to do the right thing. Great job on the artwork and exchanges too. I'll definitely be looking forward to the next installment.

Scorpio, you're trouble. You just don't get it.

The intention is honorable but the method and way you did it.

It's all wrong.

Eggplantm In reply to A-4M [2009-05-22 00:27:16 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, she needs help. At least her heart is in the right place and for Scorpio that is saying something.

You're gonna be using that disorder of his quite a lot in this comic, huh? I know I would.

Poor Cap. Makes you wonder what trouble Scorpio's gonna get into next...

Eggplantm In reply to BanditRingtail3 [2009-05-21 12:17:45 +0000 UTC]

I'll be using it now and again. Can't focus too much on any one character in this comic

BanditRingtail3 In reply to Eggplantm [2009-05-25 03:35:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, true. One of the difficulties in comics with multiple main characters.

Good luck with it! Hope it doesn't get too difficult for ya.

Xumahare [2009-05-20 22:19:52 +0000 UTC]

Oh, this ought to be good. I can't wait to see how the others react to this 'new' Gemini. I like how Sagittarius' tail is still fluffed out, too. Looks like the switch startled her probably more than she let on.

Oh, and poor Capricorn. I agree with ~Naglfar52 that Scorpio's going to be the death of her.

Eggplantm In reply to Xumahare [2009-05-21 12:27:11 +0000 UTC]

It will be awkward with the new Gemini.

I like using the "Anthro Body Language" whenever I can. It's an additional level of expression humans can't do. The tail position and ear position can add a lot.

Xumahare In reply to Eggplantm [2009-05-21 21:11:22 +0000 UTC]

Hilarity will ensue.

I hear you there, though trying to describe it in writing is harder than drawing it out.

Great, Pete's turned into the Easter Bunny! Laugh! He's gonna go and hug everyone else on the team, right? "I love you guys! I love everybody! la la la la la..."

This may make Leo reconsider having him in Zodiac.

I think it will be funnier and better if the "so called" damsel in distress the stupid college kid think he saves has to twist his arm or break his hand to get him to leave her alone. Heh, the thought of her holding him in a painful but not crippling hold as she tells him No means No would be great to see.

Eggplantm In reply to radarnocturn [2009-05-20 17:07:56 +0000 UTC]

I considered going that route as well. Sadge is more than capable in a fight. I need to give her some chance to shine in the future.

KingLigerion [2009-05-20 08:55:56 +0000 UTC]

LOL, nice prank pulled there. I was really thinking that the Rage Version of Gemini/Pete was coming out. Still, this is a good page and I enjoyed it. Especially when Scorpio and Capricorn entered at the last second.

As for my commission payment, I'm still waiting for my deposit of money to my Paypal account, as weekends aren't included in the number of 4-6 work days. IF I'm lucky, it should be coming hopefully this day, or either tomorrow or Friday at least.

Once I get the money, I will mail you and give further instructions about the overall commission order.

Haha... nice moment for the teleporter and her passenger to appear.

This bear is quite lucky; it seems Gemini's nice side is what prevents him from overusing his killer instinct.

Eggplantm In reply to Jose-Ramiro [2009-05-20 13:54:57 +0000 UTC]

Yep, the "nice guy" comes out when normal violence will actually make things worse. So the rest of the group will have to deal with this new Gemini for a while.

Jose-Ramiro In reply to Eggplantm [2009-05-20 15:43:59 +0000 UTC]

Heh, reminds me of Guy Gardner, the most annoying, rude Green Lantern ever; when he gets a very strong hit in the head, he acts like Mister Nice Guy for a long time... so nice, actually, he would creep out Barney The Dinosaur.

Jose-Ramiro In reply to Eggplantm [2009-05-21 07:06:09 +0000 UTC]

It happened mostly on his first years with the Justice League; it rarely happens now that he has more resistance to serious hits.

Aelius24 [2009-05-20 03:52:52 +0000 UTC]

Heh, I imagine it worked out for the better, mostly for the bear guy It also presents an interesting view on Pete's amount of self-control (or was it just another facet of his personality(ies) taking over at the right moment? Hmmmm....).
Capricorn's remark really ends the page on a great high note

Eggplantm In reply to Aelius24 [2009-05-20 13:57:34 +0000 UTC]

It was one of Pete's personalities. Gemini is the middle ground between the two and he is usually there. The nice guy comes out when violence would only make things worse and he is under great stress. The real "killer" we have not seen yet.

Wow, would have lost money on that bet. I expect Pete to chuck him out of the bar window. That was after he broke the kid's nose and arm in three diffrent places.
