COMMENTARY
I had to do a bit of a storytelling shuffle to keep Tangerine away from Dr. Rocket until this point in the story. I love his entrance here. In particular, I loved doing the growling drawing of Tangerine. The red color isn’t meant to suggest that Tangerine can actually turn red—it’s just an artistic choice.
VOTE NOW IN THE WEBCOMICS READER'S CHOICE AWARDS!
Voting is now open in the first annual Webcomics Reader's Choice Awards. The WCRA's are hosted by the fantastic webomic list site Frumph.net. Public voting continues for the next two weeks, through October 14th. After that, a panel of judges take over and choose from the top three vote-getters in each category which of them will win. Judges include Steve Hamaker (Colorist of the Complete Bone Adventures) and JT Shea (host of the Gigcast).
The SuperFogeys are nominated in FIVE categories, including best:
Art
Writing
Design (as in website design)
Author Congeniality
Supporting Character (Space Pig)
SF needs your support! Right now SF is doing well in some categories, not as well in some of the others. If you have a minute, please head on over to the WCRA's to cast your vote. All it takes is a quick registration and then you're off to clicky clicky land and you're done. Remember, only the TOP THREE vote-getters go before the judges, so let's help SF rise to the top (or at least very near it).
The Comics Coast to Coast Interview
…was not posted on Tuesday. Brian Dunaway, host and editor of Comics Coast to Coast fell ill this week, along with his entire family. He was not able to put the show together in time for Tuesday, but by the time you read this it should be up.
Head on over to Comics Coast to Coast to hear me pontificate on all the things SF, the new website, Book 3, the current SF storyline and...religion? Honestly, probably my most favorite interview I've done. Should be a good listen.
Next Week:
Dr. Rocket better run (squirrel) and help arrives from a most unexpected source.

Ellaturis - Yeah, that panel wouldn't be the same without them. I hesitate to ever go there--break from the established character model--but I'll do it if it serves the story and it makes sense.Tom - Thanks, man! Really, really appreciate it. Doing much better in the rankings this morning, but we still need more votes to stay head!

Tyler D. - That would be tremendous! Thanks, dude! You're stalwart. And, hey, long as you're not an evildoer or, like, steal candy from little kids, you have nothing to fear from Tangerine.Lucas -- Imagine THIS says...

busy night for me last night...went a voted for SF in every category they where nominated in and listened to comics coast to coast with brock heasley.(who ever that is.)all that stressed me out,think i need to call into work, stay at home and play video games all day.
(not really but it would be fun.)

That's why I loved KOTOR 1/2, they are pretty long, and you can hover back and forth between good and bad, or go straight good or bad.I'm just upset that FU isn't coming out for PC....
Brock says...
posted 10/6/08 7:26 am
Tyler D. - I think you may have FU confused with LEGO Batman? As far as I can tell, the only way to play through FU is with the same character, who goes from bad to good in the course of the game. As for GHIII...yeah, that's my wife and I as well.Michael J. - I just finished FU last night and the story is probably one of the best I've seen...but the game just does not match it. You're not missing much.
