Some expert storytelling from Marc in this strip. It looks deceptively simple, but there’s really a lot going on across these four panels and fitting all the beats in and choosing just the right angle is no mean trick. I honestly didn’t know how Marc was going to interpret the script, but he did a more than fine job. Glad he’s on my side! Comic-making abilities like that could be devastating if used for evil.
I believe I mentioned now and again that I have a real passion for writing. About a year ago, I submitted my first book through my agent to publishers and then I never really said what happened afterwards. I’ve finally decided to talk about my experiences in a new blog entitled “How My Writing Reached the Top of a New York Skyscraper and Then Fell Back Down Again.” I tried to be as honest and forthcoming as I could, and I’m kind of proud of how it turned out. Also included is the first three pages from the book, for the curious. I hope you’ll check it out.
Wait a minute…you mean to tell me and the rest of the readers that despite all of Swifty’s time travel with the Bubbles of Light, he still hasn’t put it all together about Jerry being both Dr Klein and the Third man ? š
Now I’m more concern about the character’s future fate than before…since it may all lead up to him going circles around his life. š
The Swifty in this strip hasn’t time traveled at all. That’s still in his future (granted, it’s a future that’s not very far away). The Swifty you’ve been seeing time travelling is what I refer to as “Future Swifty” for that reason. Make sense? I don’t mean this to be confusing, but, y’know, time travel.
Aighhhhh! He’s also Zurida!?!?!?
lol
Comment of the week.
Well, for Zurida entering that easily into the enemy’s HQ is kind of… unexpected. Wasn’t the Atomic Fly watching the skies or something like that?
Yes, but he’s occupied in the war room at the moment. A broader view of the room in the previous strip would have shown this, but he was in the war room earlier in the chapter. Spy Gal is shifting everyone’s focus over to Dr. Klein.
Personally I’m more worried about how holes keep appearing and disappearing around her. Though on that note… Sorry if this may seem heartless and cruel of me to say it like this.
We get to see the body bag! We get see the body bag! (The moment where zippy sees the gold old doc burying something which properly is a body. That should be coming soon.. right after the death of star girl.)
A body bag? Is that a prediction? You wouldn’t dare!
Guess that answers my question about the last strip as to where Zurida was sneaking off to. Swifty is due to start time traveling soon according to your reply to Marcus. I’m predict Zurida will finally get her greedy green hands on the power crystal only to have Swifty pull a Bugs Bunny and yoink it away from her. Then Swifty gets super charged which starts his temporal wandering.
Bet that temporal psyciatrist got future swifty to save him as a balance for Jerrys mind not being wiped. A bit of temporal fix. that Psyciatrist HAS to know something was out of whack
Muwahaha.
The artwork continues to make me drool. Hoping for the day I get this good too, Marc. Hoping.
Thanks for that, Will! I agree Marc is knocking it out of the park.
