Hmm.. my first comic in forever! I'm not too happy because I drew a new thumbnail for it that was all pretty, and submitted it with the comic, but the old one was used ._. I guess I shouldn't complain, but I wanted a fresh start..
Any reviews reeeeally appreciated!! ^_^. Especially because it's been so long.

The Bunker by Huba
The only negative thing that I have to say is that...being obsessive-compulsive as I am, the panels being all different sizes got to me. -_- But the lack of the black background didn't detract at all from the Bunker-feel you mentioned last week. ^_^
I really liked the joke, as always, and once again I thought the end Bonus was the funniest thing of it all. ^_^ I also found it funny that first the two had clothing, and then at the end, they didn't. O_O
Petpetpet Wars by Kami and moonshadow711
Hmm, I don't know what to say. The joke took me a moment to really pick up on, though once I did I found it funny. The art's not bad, but the Gelert's blank gaze kept drawing my eyes back to it...and it sorta freaked me out a bit.
Doctor Visit by Lau and Aizar
The art is striking! Though, and this might just be me, the throne seemed a bit differently shaped in the beginning and end panels. *shrugs* Maybe it was just the angle it's shown from. The joke was really good, though I didn't understand why you used multiple fonts as they didn't seem to change anything for me.
So I Heard the Altador Cup is Coming Back... by krychek2001
That art...was simply...stunning! That penultimate panel...scared me. Badly. My eyes are wide, and I'm trembling as I write this. I never did like that blue Techo much; he always did freak me out. And the joke? Priceless, though I'm sure those season tickets cost a fortune. :)
Smelly Nelly by Nina
This is the first Smelly Nelly comic I'm reading, so the value of repeatedly saying "Nelly's back" is above me, though the art was eye-poppingly well-done and the joke was really funny.
And the Meepits Outgrabe by kittylin
Awh, poor Miles... But great joke! ^_^ I loved the artwork, as always, and the joke certainly was priceless.

www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=332025&issue=291This made my eyes pop. I'm really really disappointed this got it. With all the sensors of the neoboards today, (we're not even allowed to say Myspace) and a lot of other things, but a comic with a curse word gets in?? I'm sorry, but that's just not right. EDIT: Hell is fine, it's not really a curse word according to neo since they used it. But this is just.. no. Like they say, make acceptable for children. Yeah, I'm sure parents are thrilled about their kids reading that.

Hello all! :D Wow, I've been gone for a smidgen. Testing and all that. Barely had time to finish this one. >_<' The Bunker by HubaThe only negative thing that I have to say is that...being obsessive-compulsive as I am, the panels being all different sizes got to me. -_- But the lack of the black background didn't detract at all from the Bunker-feel you mentioned last week. ^_^ I really liked the joke, as always, and once again I thought the end Bonus was the funniest thing of it all. ^_^ I also found it funny that first the two had clothing, and then at the end, they didn't. O_O Yes, the panel size was rather erratic. Sorry. And I think I'll do white from now on to save on pixels. ^_^ I'll also draw tiny little clothes on their chibi forms because I'm tired of hearing "They're naked", even though they're so blobby I find clothes are unnecessary in their chibi forms. T_T Meh. And thanks. I was worried I might get booted due to the "no new types of faeries" rule.... althiough TECHNICALLY she's a water faerie who just happens to specialize in tean and such. Plus, now you all know where my avvie came from. ^_^ Smelly Nelly (just because you asked nice, I'll do this one before the others ;) )~ Excellent job on the coloring. I thoroughly enjoy the usul's pose at the end. XD An over all great way to return. ^_^ Welcome back! :D |

Smelly Nelly: This one got a laugh out loud from me, something not many comics (NT or otherwise) get.  Awesome job, and the art's so bright and cheery. Welcome back, Nina. We missed ya. ^___^ |

The Portrait, Part 3:
Wow. This series so far is amazing. The imagery, and just the writing in general is very detailed and descriptive. It's actually making me think more than some other stories, something that's not as common in the NT stories. And I just love the concept of this story in general, and I can't wait to read more. I'm very jealous of your writing ability. ._.
Great job!

It must have been a slip-up. |

When I read this, I pretty much gasped and ran to the comics section. heh. ^_^; YAAAAAAY! Great comic! I'm really not that good with comic reviews, but I am going to review the two short stories this week. |

It was probably a slip up since I missed it too, but yeah, someone should tell Darcy or something. |

Did anyone see editorial?
I now know when and where Rebecca Lupe died. :3
And yes, someone should inform Droplet immediately. Curse words aren't allowed at all in the NT.

Yeah, I'm sure parents are thrilled about their kids reading that. WHAT THE HECK?!?! I'm completely serious here: we should notify Droplet. She does NOT allow bad language in the NT. It must have been a slip-up. Actually, contrary to popular belief, there are a few curse words that seem to be allowed in the Times. Sorry to say, that's one of them. I remember being so shocked when I once read a pirate story that seemed to be trying to give the pirate talk a mildly realistic touch. And there have been a few stories using the medium-strength word for "dung". But there's only three words that I know of that are allowed, and I'd much prefer it if people didn't know that those words can get in, because I don't think they really add anything to a story. In this case, it is absolutely unnecessary for the comic, and I am disappointed that the author included it. But I don't think it's not allowed. Edit: Incidentally, Neo has used this word too. Remember the faerie in Act 5 of NeoQuest II who has a clear disdain for Dark Faeries? |
