The planning for TWR goes back to Torg Goes to Hell? How much had Pete come up with back then?
Oh, and I love how Pete gives ammunition to the pro-Ian and anti-Ian sides.
Finally, it's canon!

That's pretty much what I thought about Ian's strips being 'mostly' canon.
And it's 'canon'. LEO is the one who is cannon, not Ian.
Though I still say the 'nutcracker' thing isn't canon. :)
Impressive how long that story's been in the works.

Interesting. Very interesting. Of course, it makes sense that Mosp's story started evolving a while back. It had to be in place (at least partly) when Mosp invaded the Halloween party, afterall. She didn't just try killing Torg, but communicated instead.
Must have been a real shock to the poor girl when Torg asked her her name. I mean... to be cursed that no one would ever remember her or ask her name... no wonder she tried to protect Torg.

Well, I suppose that settles it once and for all. Ian's strips are "psuedo-canon," just like LadyBlanc's been saying.

I wonder if, in principle, "mostly canon" is the same as "mostly dead."
Man, I wish I could plan things THAT far in advance.

I get it! A reference to "The Princess Bride"! (I loved that flick)

As far as I'm concerned, we are immortal.

This official answer to the Saturday spinoff should finally appease the two "sides". Personally I was relieved by the fact that I can altogether ignore those strips.
Good questions, and it was nice to see that Pete plans so far ahead. =] Go Pete!

I am liking these fillers!
So, the invasion was thought of seven years ago. That's quite impressive, to keep it in store for that long. I wonder how many other ideas the Artist is keeping in store? Is it possible to find any clues by going back to check earlier storylines? Only time will tell.
Mosp -- impressive to plan something that touching and important way back, for a character that occurs only rarely. Now that's fleshing out a story!
What I really would have liked for the first part of this filler Christmas card (looks like a Christmas card to me) is a comment on why, oh why we are still exposed to the Saturdays of Pain. Granted, in theory you can just avoid looking on Saturdays, but in practice that is hard, and anyway, you still know they're there.
Fan abuse, it is! Then again, I shall restrict my criticism, since Pete gives me a comic for free. Thank you, Pete!

To avoid a thread detract, I've moved all posts thus far concerning MITDOX and Pete's hand in it to Pete's management of Saturdays in SRC.
It's good to see just how much effort Pete puts into seemingly unnessecary characters.

Is there anyone better than Pete at answering one question and giving two new ones for us to puzzle over?
