Page 1121…
Hi all!
So a few things this week.
1) I had a wonderful interview over at Chapter 16 last week! Check it out!
http://www.chapter16.org/content/putting-fan-fantasy
2) I’m hoping to FINALLY get word from IDW that Book Four will hit stores in a few weeks.
3) There is some movie stuff going on right now. So if I am not able to update regularly this week. That is why.
Things have been very hectic and I barely got this page out to you all.
Just a heads up.
4) Some of you mentioned that yesterday’s page wasn’t up to the quality of the first time we saw the tomb exterior way back in Chapter 1.
I went back and checked. Sure enough…the older software (Chapter 1 was done in 2003) was using different texture techniques that didn’t transfer to the newer version of today.
So I had to redo the textures. Feel free to click back and check it out. Hopefully it’s a bit better.
🙂
Thank you all for pointing that out.
I hope you have a wonderful week!
Scott
Change always comes with a price. I have to wonder what price came merely from Arthur attempting what he did.
Well, beyond the whole “Nic goes off the deep end” issue.
Oh, yeah, the updated page looks much better.
I want that cape that Arthur is wearing. Now that’s a king’s cape right there.
Weren’t YOU complaining last week of a quiet life?
You got your wishes, and… may WE get our wishes as well and get to see Dreamland: The Movie!
Good luck,
Cheers.
and by the way… If Book 4 is coming – where is the shop?
Question: Each book is one chapter of the story? so ca 40-100 pages? That would mean we still miss about 11 Books to have the whole story in the hands…
well, NOW it’s clear as day how the sword came to be in the tomb. 😉
the only question left for this part is how nic came to know of it. either those two were spied on, or someone was made to talk… looks like arthur’s only hours (if even that much) away from being dethroned.
I wonder if he’ll think it was worth it anyway, as soon as he finds out what that plan of his will cost him…
I LOVE the cave redone! I like the the new centaur too. Unfortunately, as we readers know, it soon will be a place of great interest.
Arthur: “It is hardly a place of interest to anyone but myself and my predecessors.”
Centaur: “I don’t know…the teddy bears seem to make it a nice tourist attraction.”
Arthur: “I wonder why…a tomb may be a place of peace and respect, but a corpse is a corpse.”
Centaur: “Of course, of course.”
Glad to know a bit more about the place 🙂
Oh, and the voting link doesn’t work anymore for some reason 🙁
There were some single chapter comic books I think but the hard cover bound books have been multiple chapters in the past for about 300 pages. I think that Book Four is Chapter 13 and 14 for 286 pages plus extras.
I completely agree. Can I haz please?
And so the story arc comes full circle for the sword. Now I wonder if something lurks in the tomb…
Does the sword change size to fit the new king? It just looks different, well the same but bigger.
I wonder if putting the amulet together backfires and ends up putting Arthur in a kind of limbo or the wraiths interfere and do it themselves. That and if Nick’s current attitude about humans in general and arrogance as King of Dreamland developed over time or had beginnings here.
That was an awesome interview! I had no idea that so many people read this webcomic! It must be pretty amazing (and funny, I assume in many cases) to see people come up to you at comic cons dressed as Dreamland characters. Has anyone ever come as Nicodemus? That costume would be hard to make!
LOL
well, maybe the teddy tourists are all history geeks? 😉
On the subject of different textures, this is when it was “newer” than when we saw it back in chapter 1 so the lines being crisper “now” is only because “then” the sands of time had blurred them a little
“And no one can talk to a corpse, of course … ”

TWC may be overloaded. Try again later in the day …
It isn’t that. It’s the closing parenthesis at the end of the link. Try this one:

quite possibly
Still, for all that nobody but the Kings of Dreamland are much interested, King Arthur’s stay here will be rather longer than he expected.
Tomb of the Kings? So people who visit dreamland can leave corpses? Or did the kings discover how to move their bodies into dreamland somehow? An interesting twist…
“What could go wrong, nobody knows about this place but us two, a buncha dead kings . . . oh, and one dragon.”
Unless your the famous Mr Ted 🙂
Something you need to do 17 pages from now: have someone say “I have a bad feeling about this”. (Add 17 to the page number, see if you get the reference.)
Merely possibly
The first 3 books are 3 chapters each.
300 pages.
Book Four will be 2 chapters (still 300 pages).
I think it’s just a memorial. No real bodies….yet.
Thee might be one similar in WOW.
Well, if one had that 3.5 d&d speak with dead spell…
Beautiful. And, poor Arthur, you gambled wrong!
Thanks guys! It’s working again 😀
