Um, what should I do about the stolen comic idea? I really just don't know what to do...

[glow=blue,2,300] Princess of the Peaks[/glow] I like how this article isn’t written in the typical interview article format, but almost more like a story. And I really appreciate the fact that you actually took the interview seriously and didn’t try to make it comedic by making a fool of the Princess, which seems to happen too much in interview articles. I like your mention of other journalists being at Mystery Island, too. XD The princess herself was interesting, a bit of the normal haughty, powerful, philosophical type of royalty, but also with a bit of a flightier side, judging by her giggles. It was cute how she kept calling the Emperor “Daddy”. ^^ I quite enjoyed this article, and I like the way it ended, with the Princess’s advice on how to get down… *grin* Thanks so much for the review Nut. I glad you liked my article - when I first saw the image of the Princess in the new game I knew I just had to write about her. -- Comics..whoa..lots of comics this week, great work guys...Wingoball by frzngonz & scarvogueI loved the fact that the lineart was so smooth for this comic - it was great. The pink gnome it the second panel was particularly amusing. As for the script - it's great to see something really original popping up in the Times. Great work you two. Dr. Wockovsky and the Cure for Chickaroo by manda314Hehe. It took me a little while to get the joke here but once I did it was pretty funny. The art was nice but I felt that (perhaps, maybe,just a little) the lines were a little too thick. Overall though it was I nice comic and I really like the cannibalism comment. (Though, are there chickens in Neopia?) The Gallion Ranch by hakuryu_86 & pacmaniteWhenever I see the title "Gallion Ranch" I know that I can look forward to a well-drawn and well-written comic. And this time was certainly no exception. This made me laugh a lot. The krawk's expression is priceless and the ukali...hehe...classic. You two make one of the best comic duos - looking forward to seeing more soon. C.H.A.O.S. is by Kat and M3rcuri:The art is lovely! It looks almost just like actual Neopets art! The script too had me grinning a little maniacally. Great work. Random Something is by Silver:Excellent comic, Silver! The love all the facial expressions and especially the flotsam. The only thing I noticed was a small typo in the last speech bubble, you wrote: "That's the way the giant squid like it." It probably should have been: "That's the way the giant squid like s it." Apart from that there is no criticism I can give on this comic. Just keep doing what you're doing. COMIKAZE is by Bird_brain (and Flutterflies):Hehe. Nice. I really enjoyed this one. The art is beautiful and the script is original. I happen to what the bori did each time I play Cheat, so I could really associate with the comic. x) The Bunker is by Huba:Whoa..a long comicl. But very good and original at the same time. My only qualm is that the quality of the .jpg is not extremely high and had reduced the quality of the image noticeably. Overall, however I really enjoyed this one. Meow? is by Edddibgaz:Oh, that's was awesome. Hmm...I don't really know what else to day - there's not really any concrit I can give you. Just keep making more comics.  -- Reviews for my article Princess of the Peaks would be much appreciated. ;D |

The Bunker by Huba:You know, I never noticed the mover guy there until you pointed it out...sneaky, but good. I was pleasantly astounded when everything was taken out of the moving...er, "truck." I really liked how the Feepit was fighting the Meepit lamp. ^_^ And, once more, the end note was possibly the funniest part of the comic (not that it's a bad thing, of course). Teehee. ^_^ Thank you! I always love to slip in little side jokes into every comic.  The Bunker is by Huba:Whoa..a long comicl. But very good and original at the same time. My only qualm is that the quality of the .jpg is not extremely high and had reduced the quality of the image noticeably. Overall, however I really enjoyed this one. Yes, this aggrivated me greatly. -_-' The comic was the longest I've made so far, so it took a lot to get it down to 200KB. All that formatting really kicked the bajeezus out ofit. ;_; But thank you very much. I loved this one because I finally got to introduce Phil the Mover Guy. |

Continued Series
Outsider Within: Web of Deceit - Part Two by tashniAnd the plot thickens...I really liked this chapter - your series is progressing well so far. I especially like the character of Chief Henka. Looking forward to reading the next part. Short StoriesEasy as "Pyramid Pot" by literalluauI loved the simplicity of this tale. It was just simple, sweet and beautiful. Your style of writing is great.

Thank-you! ^^ However, I thought that since there are multiple giant squids, (there must be since lots of people catch them, right?) wouldn't it be, that's the way the giant squid like it? Or would giant squid be pluralized to giant squids?  Oh well, I'm not really that great with grammar. Thanks for the comment! |

Wingoball by frzngonz & scarvogue
Hehe, I can relate. It would be a lot funner though if in the game the gnomes reacted to being hit with the ball... like falling over or something XD
Dr. Wockovsky and the Cure for Chickaroo by manda314
Very funny! That Dr. Wockovsky is as sly as ever. He also doesn't seem to be very good at his job. Is he secretly an agent for the neopian times, asking for a lifetime subscription as payment? XD
The Gallion Ranch by hakuryu_86 & pacmanite
As always this was hilarious! I can only imagine what it must feel like to be eating berries very fast while rolling forwards on hills... :S
C.H.A.O.S. is by Kat and M3rcuri:
That lazy anubis! XD But very cute as well...
COMIKAZE is by Bird_brain (and Flutterflies):
This comic was hilarious! I remember I forgot to let my brother take his turn before I did a dance similar to that... and I love the bori's expression in the last panel X3
The Bunker is by Huba:
Long comic, but good. ^^ I like the turmaculus's line at the end XD
Meow? is by Edddibgaz:
This was hilarious as well. I certianly wouldn't want to bump into that hissi on Krawk Island. o.o

Princess of the Peaks by squire_genevieve
This was a really entertaining and well-written article. The interior monologue at the beginning I found quite funny, and it certainly served as a good interlude to the article itself.
That bit is beautiful and I find it rather inspiring. Really good job with it.
The ending, following such a serious-yet-casual interview, was unexpected, though it certainly did wrap things up with a small taste of the humor that this was begun with.

Easy as "Pyramid Pot" by literalluau
I love stories that I can learn something from, so I enjoyed your vocabulary lesson at the start. I probably would have understood them well-enough from having watched pottery be made on TV plenty of times, but it was still a nice little addition to the story, I feel.
I feel that Dee's watching the clay spin and asking it to become a tea pot served as a great opening. I almost thought, though, that when her name was called, she'd assume it was the clay who had spoken to her....
I sometimes found myself being distracted by wondering if Osiris was supposed to be Osiris or if it was meant to be "Osiri's," though I'm not sure how you might have been able to avoid that.
I quite enjoyed reading this story, really. It felt rather light and softhearted, and that was for me a pleasant change from the heavier things I've been reading much of lately. The message in it was quite nicely given and encouraging to say the least..
