Ohoho, she would HATE that. Shooting her with fire? She'd get over that. Shaving her head? Unforgivable. ;D

Reminds me of an episode of Cheers (the ending, actually) when Woody was trimming Sam's hair and "slipped" causing a minor error (nothing serious, but Sam's hair was "award winning" or somesuch bs) (stupid old shows, what can you say?). Sam tracks down Woody with the shaver and drags him into the back room.
You hear the sound of shaving... and Sam comes out. Then Woody comes out looking mournful... but with a full head of hair. Carla asks what happened and Woody says that Sam shaved all of his hair off. Except for his head.
Though girls don't mind having no body hair I'm sure. (It itches. And pulls. Annoying little hairs... *eyes his lower leg*)
Now I'm visualizing Sparkle with a mohawk - with the mohawk hair kept at its current length but the rest shaved short. ^_^

aww chapter 8 is over. Second only in length to the 47 pages of chapter 4 and at only 8 months in the making much more labour intensive. What will happen next? Are the B team headed straight into a trap? Will Sparkle recover? Will Keti get her brain under control again? Find out in Chapter Nine!
I need to draw more comics faster... it's all getting a bit out of hand buffer wise, I hope to get the cover up before I go on holiday.

Will we ACTUALLY find out ALL the details of ALL the answers to ALL those questions in chapter nine? Or will some of them spillover into chapter 10? Or 11? Or more? Just for the record, trying to do more faster rarely works for webcomic artists. There is no magic "keep the art looking good but get it done in half the time" button one can press, I'm afraid. I have seen many good artists suffer from that.

Actually, you're not exactly correct there, wanderer. If an artist draws enough, their ability improves to the point that they can do the same work in less time. The problem is that there is an equal tendency to start improving on the artwork and increasing its complexity. After all, if you're doing the comic in two hours instead of four, you're not working as hard. Or so your inner sense of guilt tries to tell you. ^^;;

I want footloose to look as awesome as it sounds in the script... but it takes a long time to draw.
And if I told you whether all those questions would be answered it'd ruin the suspense.

Or so your inner sense of guilt tries to tell you. ^^;; Whether or not practice SHOULD allow the artist to get the work done faster, the end result in every comic I've seen (or at least the ones where the issue comes up at all) has been the opposite. Pushing to get more done faster results in getting LESS done SLOWER, and has also led to numerous cases of burnout. It was a joke. I was saying in a non-serious fashion that if those questions weren't answered in chapter nine, you were lying to us. Nevermind, it doesn't seem as funny now.

my reaction to the last page: "aw, damn." Though I don't think they'll be so much trouble as there will hi-jinks. from kitty's last line she's going after daniel, the one with dog ears. but now, daniel's no longer at the inn. now jin is the only one at the inn with dog ears. hmmm...
oh, sure, i imagine there will be trouble too, i take that first statement back.

Time for a 'Step 9' thread, yes? ;-)

Right now we're still reacting to the end of this chapter. New thread should go up when the next one starts, I would think.

Oh wait, someone threw up the cover to the next chapter sometime between when I last looked at the page and now. Hmm...
