Hey all!
I hope you enjoyed this week. I know I did.
Donna comes home tomorrow. The boys will be happy…as will I.
I updated the VOTE INCENTIVE today. So check it out.
I have some images from the comic itself I may just update daily with those.
But I’ll let you know every time I do.
Also…
the nice folks at the TGT podcasts are doing a tournament of past guests.
We’ve already made it to the 3rd round. So I thought I’d say thanks to those that voted us there.
And let you know…as of today…Round 3 starts.

You can vote HOURLY. So if you’re bored. Give us (and your other favorite guests) a vote.
🙂
And finally…
We really only got 2 reviews from you guys on Amazon. So here’s the link again.
http://www.amazon.com/Scott-Christian-Sava/e/B001K8XJP4/
We get over 20,000 unique readers a day on this site. So I’m a bit surprised only 2 readers left reviews.
Come on! Silly Rabbits!
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL weekend. And I look forward to seeing you guys here (bright and early) on Monday!
Scott
Typical Nicole! Always a skeptic.
Seriously. Shoulda seen That one coming. 😛
*BUSTS UP LAUGHING* Ah, just what I needed tonight. Place your bets, fellow readers! How long will it take to convince Nicole that it’s genuine? Judging by Dan’s expressions, I think he believes Alex.
I’ve seen plenty of “bad hair day” cases, but Dan looking like a devil?! 😀
lol
Made in China sticker. Everyone knows they engrave that stuff now! *giggles*
Been awhile since I’ve read this comic, but when I do read, there are always so many amazing pages. They keep me busy.
Now that there’s a vote button tho, I’ll have to come by everyday to help out!
Sometimes I just do not like her… She’s already remembered Felicity and her own adventures in Dreamland, so who’s she to /still/ be a skeptic? lol
Anyway, love the comic and the page. Can’t wait for more! <3
I guess Nicole is just what being an adult is all about – being boring. ;P
I think if I was Alex, at that point, I would have lit into Nicole and just punched her in the face. There is a line between being boring, adult, a skeptic, a realist, and just an outright !@#$%. Why does he even play with the idea of getting with her? He has a super hot elven girl and Nicole’s only saving grace is… or… Hmmm… Okay, Nicole has no saving graces and has so far only shown herself to be a tool for furthering the plot.
Wow. Hostility alert!
Seriously, cut her some slack. She’s a scientific-minded person that’s just starting to come to the realization that Dreamland is something more than just a childhood dream. To present a trinket and claim it’s a physical object that actually came with him from Dreamland is going to be a tough one to swallow even with the walls of skepticism slowly coming down.
Oh, ye of little faith! >X}
Oh, come on!
Give us the message allready ! 😉
Actually, Nacome, it depends on the object. Some things are marked as part of the manufacturing process, while for others a mere sticker will suffice.
But surely, if it’s thousands of years old, the sticker would have fallen off by now! =)
gee i saw that coming…
i hope Dan won’t be a villain in dreamland?
Once a skeptic, always a skeptic, though that is a very hilarious line from Nicole. It does raise the question of why did Alex want her as a gf when she barely believes that Dreamland exists… of course, love makes you do stupid things(and/or infatuation, for that matter!)
Remember that even though he’s the one actually going there, it took even Alex a while to accept Dreamland as real.
I bet the note for dan is going to be some sort of riddle. i doubt it will be a straight forward how to go to dreamland. I think it would be nice to have the brothers fight side by side against Nic. Who we haven’t seen in a long time. BTW Scott great comic you got me hooked last year when I found the site from another webcomic I read now I can’t wait for the next page!
LMAONADE!!! i love nicole
When will Dan finally read the message!!! I don’t think he’s going to suddenly get to dreamland, but i imagine whatever it says (since it does involve a response) is going to help Mr. Centaur find a way for Dan to get to Dreamland. Of course, it’s possible the note simply asks Dan to wear it at night like Alex wears the sword necklace.
Next question, is Nicole going to look inside and find the note that is supposed to be intended for Dan’s eyes only? or, will Dan snatch the pouch from her clutches in the “nic” of time and discover the note. Will Alex just sit there like a bump on a log while this transpires.. Stay tuned dream friends to this same dream station.. to be continued.. on Monday!!
It’s official.. Nicole is Queen of the One-Liners. lol!! What a great way to end the week. A cliffhanger, but not a terrible cliffhanger. 😀
Have a great weekend everyone!!
Just letting you know Round 3 has started for the TGT Tournament. So, please vote away every hour for Scott here and your other favourite webcomics / interviews.
Interesting lesson here. Sometimes lack of belief can produce an almost religious fervor in itself. Even when faced with evidence of the existence of the intangible, some just refuse to believe…
Love the depth of your work, Scott.
I lol’d with that one xD
Though Nicole’s skepticism was predictable…
Hehe, I saw something like this coming, but not exactly the “made in china” line, haha! I love it! XD
Aw guys, she only started believing less than 24h ago (in their world)… and believing that dreamland exists is not the same as believing physical things can pass through the worlds. And no matter what her beliefs about dreamland are, it is different from “having faith” in Alex =P Even if she knew from experience that things can pass from dreamland to real world, she’ll probably still check for the “made in China” sticker simply because it came from Alex =P I think it makes her a good scientist… doesn’t say she won’t believe in the end, but she won’t just sit there and accept everything that people say to her when there is a simple test waiting to be done that can either support or completely abolish what she has just been told =) I say, good for her =) Though the medicine bag being that small, even Alex would’ve noticed if there’s sticker covering 1/2 of it and taken it off if he meant to trick Nicole… but then again, some stickers can be quite small too and this IS Alex we’re talking about XD
I knew she’d do something like that!
Haha! Love it! Typical Nicole
Rofl! That is one of he best one-liners I’ve ever read. Great job once again Scott!!! After reading the comments I do agree that it is a little frustrating for Nicole to doubt like that but again, she just started to accept Dreamland as reality. And if Alex was smarter, he really could have done this to try to trick Nicole :). I bet Dan would have.
Mmmm, about those 20K unique readers, ask them to vote for you on the TWC site. It’d put all others there to shame if everyone voted once today. TDC has dropped to number 8, peeps. How “Phoenix” stays on top is only because 2000 votes are cast every day, so it’s time to bring Scott up to where he belongs in the ranks. Get up and VOTE!
Oh yeah, and how about getting to the note that is in the bag, already? That should have been the first thing out of Alex’s mouth, that it was for Dan.
Out of curiosity, does Dan’s shirt read “Hello My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die?”
I have a shirt exactly like it, and while I can’t read it on this page, it looks like thats what it might easily say.
If so, great movie reference!
I agree with Acies: cut her some slack.
(1) she only just accepted again that Dreamland is real.
(2) Habits are hard to break. Current belief is that three weeks, 21 days, doing something new is required to establish a new habit.
(3) Accepting that when she dreams she can go someplace with independent existence is not nearly the same as having something physical show up from there in this world.
From where she was a day or two ago, she’s doing quite well.
I’m not going to give Nicole a hard time unless she really gets obnoxious about it; she could after all just be doing a little snark while she checks out the bag.
Dan is the one whose reaction I want to see – especially when Alex tells him he has a message.
Thanks all!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Ah, Scott, about those reviews… You can only post a review if you have bought the object being reviewed from Amazon. As I discovered your wondrous tale and even more magnificent artwork not 6 months ago, and have not bought the books in any form just yet, I can’t, but would dearly love, to leave a review for your fine works.
I caught your interview on TGTWebcomics and really enjoyed it. StudioFoglio is another of my favorite stories, I have the complete “Girl Genius” library up to volume 3, but lost touch with them for more than 6 years. Voting for TDC at TWC clued me back in to their developments. And I’ve also been turned on to quite a few other webcomics by your links – not to mention YOUR favorites. I just completed the Crimson Dark webcomic from the beginning over the past 3 days. I must say, your webcomic is far more prolific than many, and it took me a week to catch up with yours. Next, I will be listening to TGTWeb I/V #37, Girl Genius.
you picked a pretty bad time to post that, you know.
Hey Ironbandit…
Actually I think you CAN do a review. I’ve reviewed books I’ve not purchased.
Give it a shot.
Yes, I gave you an excellent review. I just had to login to my other account on Amazon to do it.
Now, for why I came back: Scott is waning in the TGT tallies, so peeps, got to http://tgtwebcomics.com/events/t50/ and vote for podcast #10, we’re a scant 5 votes behind! You ncan vote hourly, and if it strikes you to do so, it’ll help keep Scott on top there.
In the TWC races, tho’, we’ve fallen WAY out of the top 5, to #8. Remember, the tally resets every month, we have a golden opportunity to put Scott on top and to keep him there.
Just so you know, I vote for StudioFoglio at both, and am currently listening to the I/V with C Wright.
lol
Haha. Okay, as a Native American, I found this page really funny.
You’re not gonna find it Nicole….
-Alex:0k first off it was probably made by little immigrant gnomes from the other realms…
-Nicole: Assuming you are correct.You condone this sort of exploitation?
-Alex:Isn’t that a film?
Lolsies!
… PFFFFFFTT XDXDXDXDXD
It’s well known that “China” is a mythical realm not far from Dreamlands.
