Thank you to Gray for reaching out about an interview! It was fun to talk a bit about the NT and my series, and I'm honored to have been considered interesting enough for one haha! It turned out great, and I wish you the best as you start this new series :3 |

Already gave some commentary on this one when you posted it here, but it's worth saying again that I love the joke and artwork in this comic! :3 You need to teach me your color picking secrets, because I would love to make the palettes that you do lol. And Ralvy's =| face in the first panel will never not make me laugh xD Yesss, congrats once again on finally getting this published! The amount of time and work you put into it definitely shows, and it was completely worth the wait =D
So many notable details to point out! I'm excited to say that I recognize most of the cameos featured here, although there are a few that I don't recall off the top of my head that have me curious now! Do you have a list by chance of everyone featured here, and where they're sitting? =0
There were a number of details I listed yesterday on Discord, but looking at it again today I'm still finding things I hadn't noticed yet! For example, I'm just now seeing the "Chet Flash Wuz Here" graffiti on the side of the bleachers haha. Also Griff's slushie spilled across his shirt while he's sitting there paralyzed, that's just a cute yet tragic little moment xD
Great work again, it's always exciting and such a treat to see cameos and crossovers in the comics section, especially when on a scale as large as this!
Yesss, part two \o/ I love the lighting in this part, the soft sunlight falling from the ceiling creates the perfect atmosphere for the temple. I'm also laughing at the arrows flying in the background in the first panel that the two are just casually ignoring, as well as the snake giving them the side eye from what I can imagine is annoyance at their blase attitudes xD
The poor Lizark in the last panel, its face is adorable yet heartbreaking haha </3

Reviews! New ones: Kat A Mother's Love, Then and Now Oooo, some very juicy moral dilemmas in this one! Having to make the hard choice. Do the right thing, support the right side, but also put their daughter at risk. I think most hero stories expect the hero character to self-sacrifice, but it's always an interesting conundrum when the only way to do that also ends up sacrificing others along with them.
A good emotional ending for Andrea and Reuben. She's asking some hard questions of herself, but the feeling of not being alone is so powerful even if there are no easy answers. I get the feeling she's gonna do JUST fine should it ever come to that! Carolyn Sibling Summit I like the dynamic between the siblings here. Lisha being brainy but ultimately the calmer one and who is able to "turn off" that big brain. Vs Jeran, the cool collected one who seems to have it all together actually being the one who struggles with it. Good that they can lean on each other and realize they share the same fears, even if their approach to dealing with them are different!
"The two chuckled as Jeran threw the shoes back into the water."
LITTERING!!
"I think any Neopian who has been called a ‘hero’, both now and then, has desired peace. Maybe their spirits are wishing the same for us.”
I love this line. And what a great closer to the story. And these were already posted on the writing board on-site, but here for posterity: Kengplant Life Improvised : Thunder Sticks Keng, you did an AMAZING job with this. Conceptually the joke is perfect and Lar's chaotic (but good natured!) energy is ~chef's kiss~ That you did so much artwork of so many various NT contributors is just. Above and beyond. And you nailed each and every design, right down the artist's stylistic choices. The NeoPizza characters, Twillie and Huntress' crew... literally all of them jump out immediately as the distinct, recognizable characters they are. And I can't thank you enough for including my disaster draiks, it feels so warm to be included in something like this C': You nailed both of them and I, too, wonder what sort of shenanigans Ralvy was up to that landed her in such a position. Again, ~chef's kiss~ Oh and also Chet Flash wuz here Twillie Blossoms~ Digging Deep Part 2 I LOVE this Tarla... she is so precious. The way she speaks in riddles and her chaotic nature is an extremely fun take on the character. I instantly banish all fear of fingers vs hooves on Ixis. Sorry Zath, but Jonathon's pun was executed with surgical procession. He gets the pass on this one. Also Taelia incomiiiing!! Gray Notable Neopians: Twillie Great concept! I know a few others have done interviews with well known players in the past, but it's great to see an interview with a modern NT legend! Looking forward to who you do next, and if you'll be branching out to other aspects of the site (avatar collectors, popular guild owners, etc). Also THANK you for the shoutout Twillie You are always so kind C': Faellie Tales 07: How to Pet a Faellie by coco6468 I love these Faelies so dang much. Good to see Daisy is sticking around! Also the joke. Flawless. A very important individual such as Hawthorn only conducts his business in the most formal and proper of ways u-u They say love isn't transaction but this mans demanding 5 weeks paid vacation and stock options before head scritches are even on the TABLE. N1GHTM4R3: Strength of a Guardian p2 (Doubt) by shellshocks Glad the next part was finally accepted! Interesting, getting to see a bit more of this tumultuous relationship between the two. Hmm, Xac is making some deep cuts here, but Ultimo seems to be trying his best to smooth things over. Curious to see if we'll find out exactly why Xac hates the faeries so much. |
