Hey, thanks for the reviews on Sanity Obsolete Revived. (from now on they're going to be known as Revived, see) I obviously can't say anything on account of the art, but it's way better than what I could've done. Apparently Nut had to use a different technique of drawing for this one, so that might explain the things you pointed out. She's still great though, especially 'cause she's one of the few people that are around here that actually find my scripts funny, lol.

Yay, the collab with Patjade's in the Times. My first comic at that ^_^
Thanks for the reviews y'all. And yeah, I concede the first panel's quite messy with the blurred, handwritten words and all. And glad that Plessi didn't turn out too, well, skinny (though I doubt she'd want to be too fat either n:P )

Ah, I missed doing this. Short Story ReviewMiss Earthwing by oldnavyfan10First of all, I like how you planned the progression of the story. ^^ The characters entered the story one at a time and we see how the protagonist, Earthwing, reacts to each addition to her class. The dialogue's witty and Earthwing's descriptions (these revealed a lot about Earthwing's personality although I wish I could have seen more of the others') of the villains are nicely done. I didn't feel the ending too much, though, because to me, it didn't make a lot of sense. ^^; I would have wanted to know more about Earthwing's interest in teaching and why Navy would think it was important to give her the book. ^^ Left me hanging a bit (sequel? *hopeful eyes*) But, really, that's just a minor thing because I enjoyed this story a lot! 'Twas a fun read. Keep it up, Navy! Hope to add more later... ^^

Miss Earthwingby oldnavyfan10 “It seemed she had inherited her owner's art skills which were, to say the least, nonexistent.” Amen! Earthwing’s descriptions of the villains are really funny. “She's enemies with Illusen, and anybody who doesn't like Illusen must be evil." Sounds about right to me. I like how she left out the Shadow Usul, and how she got a book about her/him/it at the end. A very nice touch that helped with the ‘little girl playing teacher’ image.

Ezanna on Edge by battlesunn
*head implodes* You are evil, you know that, right? I read it and had the overwhelming urge to pull out a sheet of paper and figure it out. Ezanna is a very sympathetic character, I think most of us have had too many deadlines staring them in the face which makes understanding his POV a lot easier. I did have to read some of the dialogue from Mystery Island twice; I’m not sure what exactly threw me off there though. Maybe it was something with his quick and total turn around. I love the ending, that last line is classic.

Katie the Enchantress by kindheartedfairy
I like Kate and Terry, and the way you managed to give them a lot of history in a few short paragraphs. I did find it a little odd how Kate was so determined to meet up with her family, but after she met Valerie she was perfectly content to sit and chat for hours. It seems odd when she suddenly remembers later. Maybe a sentence along the lines of : “something nagged at the back of Kate’s head, something she was supposed to remember…” Keep up with the Kate stories; I’m getting rather fond of her. *grin*

Don't Cry, My Little Love by rainbow_daydreamer
Awww… *sniff* So sad! I have to admit, I at first thought Izzy was writing a letter to explain why she’d abandoned Lynne and made a break for freedom. As I got to know Izzy better though, the opposite was apparent. I like the world you’ve created here, very non-polished and gritty. And it does fit in well with your Starlight Invasion stories, the lack of that in the title kind of threw me off actually. *bashful grin*

The Would-Be Detective: Where is Dr. Sloth?by silentbutterfly I find it so funny that everyone knows who was watching Sloth at the time and where they were. It’s like… the Sloth baby sitting service – except it ended up in reverse. I have to admit though; I didn’t picture a blue Uni as I read the story… I pictured Strife from the forum. This image gave me many gigglefits, even though I know one is not named after the other. The ending was great, I loved the last line.

Shoyru Squadron: Agents of Faerie by the_darkjedi
Favorite panel: the first one. The background detail on it is amazing. The only thing that kind of *tweaked* my reading was the third speech bubble, “Bah! Matters not.” It’s Yoda; good Jedi gone bad and painted himself red. Or maybe not. It just struck me as odd. I do like the Shoyrus reaction to their new armor. *grin*

DOOMed Adventuresby ladyash782 Panels two and four are my favorites. They manage to get so much across in such a little amount of space. The joke is very cute too; I wonder if a cookie colored Chomby actually tastes like a cookie? *gets evil glares from the owners of biscuit painted pets* ….not that I advocate tasting them…. A very nice first comic! Hope to see more.

The Gallion Ranchby pacmanite and hakuryu_86 Hee! Very cute way of including a game that isn’t played very much – yet is easily recognizable. The Tuskinany’s face is priceless. *smirks* Look out below…

Sanity Obsolete by myfallenrevival4 and Nut862
Snowflake! I have to confess Nut, the first thing that flashed though my mind was “When did Nano paint herself speckled, and what happened to her cheese mallet? …. Oh. *headdesk*” Very cute. Was this inspired by “Wack a Staff Member”?

Notions and Nonsense: The Argument by patjade and scarrift
Hee! Very cute! I love the expressions in the last panel. It's just so... ;D and -_-. The scribbling, unreadable text in the background of the first panel was a nice touch too. It makes it obvious what they were doing, without cluttering it up with details of why they were doing it.

Best Insurance by ssjelitegirl
Hee! They’re so sleezy! The little *meep* is cute too… Beware the meepits. The blue one’s face in the last panel is priceless. I can totally see door to door salesmen having problems with Meepits in Neopia like the stereotype of salesmen (and mailmen) with dogs on Earth.
