Tuesday is optimistic...

Maybe the world ending will happen after all.

So be sure to praise our Great and Wonderful World Destroyer, Lord Poopy!

Well, the deed is done. Guess everything went according to plan, after all. And while meander was the one to complete the ceremony instead of Tombsy, she still doesn't look pleased by the turn of events.

With that said, the lighting in today's page is excellent. Love the ink work. We might only have one page a week, but it comes with great quality art.

Stay tuned next week, kids! Same nifty time, same nifty channel.

(Come on Pete! How about a one-framer tomorrow?!??)

Yes! There is still time to join Team Poopy-Pants! Pay no attention to those other teams lest you feel the full weight of Poopy-Pants' wrath.

Nice artwork today. The flash of light overwhelming everything else looks just like what happens when you're close to a lightning strike from a storm. Anyone have a Stormbreaker handy?

Wasn't Wilcott's hat already on the floor from the previous strip when he was shoved in to the funnel?

Ack! You are correct. I had two versions of the panel layout and inked the wrong pencils. I'll erase the hat in a little bit.

A short time later... FIXED!

Well that's freaking ominous!

Amazing!

Horrifying!

Horrifyingly amazing!

Great job Pete!

Wow! Just wow!

Eep!

(And more praise for the great artwork!)


I am not sure what you mean by 'complete' since it was Tombsy that shoved Wilcott into the sacrifice circle... The actual release of K'Z'K is not Chilus' first choice, but she will accept and support it (as she did in The Release). And she did sacrifice so many of her demon followers...

But the release of K'Z'K is Skip's first choice. Yet he looks concerned/unhappy - I would think he'd be thrilled. Did a demon actually have an emotional connection to Wilcott??

In a previous thread, it was pointed out that Chilus had taken the place of Tombsy behind the Book.

Great artwork, even if it means an infuriating wait for next week! We accept and support Pete's ongoing efforts to catch up, even though they delay Lord Poopy Pants's inevitable torrential release.

By the way, there seems to be a pattern in the layout of the last few strips that gives hints on their layout in print (eventually). I suspect we're getting some pretty nifty visuals next week!

Ah. Right. Thank you for the clarification. I am unsure that her position actually counts as completion, but she should definitely have a front-row seat to whatever else occurs now. Depending, of course, on whether Torg follows through with taking anyone out with a charged Chaz...

Ooooh. He couldn't charge Chaz during The Release. So we never got to find out whether Chaz can kill K'Z'K. If he could, what would that do to the Omega pillar?

A niftysearch indicates that was the only time the omega pillar was mentioned...in that spelling, at least ;) Pete was clever to overshadow that foreshadowing with such a wonderful premonition of doom!

For some reason, it wasn't until today (when I re-read last week in prep for this week) that I noticed Tombsy's apology as she mercilessly pushed Wilcott to his death.
Not that it provided much comfort... and boy, Riff looks like you do not want to be in his way today.

This lighting is fire. That bit with Sam and Torg in the air... does Torg have goggles on?
