3-17 Ask Hal
Friday, September 21st, 2007Next week, Penance resumes! The first new page will be up Friday, September 28th, and we expect to put up new pages every Friday thereafter.
– Commentary –
Craig: I’m not sure what Tara was expecting to find when she got to the 9th street mission, but I can guarantee this wasn’t it.
J.D.: Well, it certainly wouldn’t be what I’d expect to see.
Craig: It was fun creating the characters that line the background of panel 2. Each one is different and interesting. You’ll see closeups of several of them in the pages to come.
J.D.: And when I was working on them, I kept thinking about who they were, as people. What their relationships to one another were, and how they’d come to be where they were. I got to know them quite a bit while I was working on them.
Craig: They kind of lept out of my pencil. The musclebound bald figure on the far right was the most surprising.
J.D.: I have a special affection for the guy that Tara first talks to. He just seems so sweet.
Craig: Sweet?! He’s a toothy-glowing-spiky-lizard guy! “Sweet” is not the first word that comes to mind.
J.D.: But look at his expression. There’s no malice in him. He’s just helping Tara find the person she’s looking for.
Craig: Though to Tara, he — and all of them — are quite frightening.
J.D.: Well, in all honesty if he had walked up to me like that I would have taken a double-take as well.
Craig: I think I would taken an about-face and ran.

Can’t wait for the new pages!

It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for! Wow, now it’s going to seem like forever until next Friday comes. Lol.

Hey wow, I’ve been out of touch for several months and just started catching up on this again yesterday. Looks like I came back at the right time!

Hang on, though — wasn’t the hiatus due to work on a Vanished Planet book? What’s the status on that? Inquiring minds want to know!

Hi Joel, I’ve finished through chapter six of approximately thirteen, and I have a much clearer vision of where the rest of the book is going, so it should move along much more speedily than hitherto.
