A cautionary tale |
|
|
A sobering story to finish off this mini-series. Let
this be a lesson to all those of you who are thinking of
starting your own factional campaigns. War isn't all
fun. Sometimes, stuff gets chipped.
This was another ridiculously large comic for me to put
together, but I don't get to draw Melanippe that often,
and I got a lovely full length picture out of it that I
can use on a wallpaper or something, when I get round to
making some. It's a fairly badly-kept secret that
Melanippe is my favourite character, which is one of the
reasons why she doesn't appear in the comic all that
often: if she was around all the time, everyone would
get sick of her pretty damn fast, especially as I really
can't trust myself not to slip into Mary Sue territory
with a character I love so much. It would still be
awesome, but probably only for me.
Meanwhile, I've made some changes to the site,
principally relating to the Cast section. I've got rid
of the popup windows, and each character's section now
lists their appearances so far. Gatamache has been added
to the lineup, and I've re-drawn some of the statue
heads, as they were increasingly out of step with how I
actually draw the characters now. You'll also notice
that each comic now features links, in the form of those chibi-sprite things up above, to the character pages of
everyone who appears in the comic. Finally, I'm in the
process of rewriting and expanding the character bios,
although not all of them have been altered yet. Oh, and
Pantariste's age has been retconned just slightly, for
reasons that probably won't matter for another five
chapters.
Come back on Friday when... look, I can't think of a
good way to trail the next comic without giving away
what happens. So just come back on Friday. Please? |

It was the year of the
1992 General Election. But what was the year? |
