Page 1467…
Hope you enjoyed this week’s pages!
Tomorrow and Sunday, I’ll be in COOKEVILLE,TN for the second annual OMNICON!
If you’re in the area…stop by and say hi.
Also…I’m told that there’s a contest where Dreamland needs votes.
Scroll down to the SIMON DIVISION and vote for Dreamland today.
Thanks!
And see you on Monday!
Scott
Have a good Con!
OMG Dan is so cute here! 🙂
I hope Nicole is as enthused as he is. 🙂
Oh, and we’re currently in the lead 728-673. We need a much bigger lead than that if it’s going to last. 🙂
We’re now at 744-678, but it could still go either way. Too close for comfort. GO VOTE!!!
Dunno about you, but I’m sensing something ominous coming up. The way she’s holding his arm, the way her staff is held…
Hopefully I’m wrong, but there were other panels that made me suspect there’s something else to her…
5,660 votes on TWC today. We’re still #8. We’re still in the best 10.
We can do better than that. Who said, ‘Keep dreaming’? I do.
I believe that the readers of this comic can commit themselves to achieving the goal, before this year is out, of landing The Dreamland Chronicles on the first place in TWC and keeping it safely there.
Keep VOTING!
So, Dan, fancy a swim?
Aaaaaagh! Daniel is literally playing right into her hands!
I figure Alex is late because he’s being attacked by sea serpents…she controls them, which is why she was able to “rescue” them earlier. She kept them alive in order to kidnap Daniel and get rid of any other king in Dreamland other than Nicodemus…he’s going to get his revenge for Daniel’s misleading, “fake plans” that his spies brought back to him.
(I’d like to be wrong about this, but I don’t think I am.)
Aaaaaagh!
Dan!
you’re awesome!!!
As far as replies to yesterday’s comment about how Nastajia told Niviene all about their quest while waiting for hours for Alex…time in Dreamland passes differently. Alexander can reappear only moments after he leaves Dreamland, even though he’s been awake in the waking world for hours…I don’t think there has been any time for Nastajia to tell her anything. Nothing in the previous panels indicates any substantial passage of time.
Ummm… Wonder what the wraiths are up to…
That’s crazy…
So crazy, it just might work.
Drive 90 miles in this weather to spend a weekend with sweaty college kids? Pass. Surprised Nichole isn’t fashed over Dan having to ‘feel up’ the mer-lady for his reality check.
The way her sleeves keep defying gravity bothers me.
not sure about the Nick part but wouldn’t be surprised if she was going to trap Daniel. After all Ninieve was the downfall of Merlin in that she was the one that trapped him inside of a rock according to legend. Now they will take down another “wizard”. Hmm now imagine that Alex is the rightful king of Dreamland and Daniel is a replacement for Merlin?
Transdimensional starch and a stiff interfacing on sturdy fabric. LOL
Yes, time does pass differently, but how it passes is somewhat unpredictable. When Alex and Felicity jumped from Nicodemus’s tower Alex woke up during the fall, spent the day worrying and planning with Dan how to survive it and save Felicity, then went to sleep and returned to exactly the point in time when he had woken up, with not a moment having passed in Dreamland. Then again, when Alex’s mom took the sword necklace away from him for eight years, eight years passed in Dreamland before he returned to it. There doesn’t seem to be any linear relationship between passage of time in the waking world and passage of time in Dreamland. The most that can be said of the relationship between the two timestreams is that it’s unpredictable.
Like…….this is the part where she pulls him under to try and down him? Nivienne, are your intentions truly pure? What a thrilling cliffhanger! And Scott hasn’t really made us trust her much. Actually, come to think of it this could be the beginning of an exciting new plot line in our heros’ quest!
Or! She could be about to bestow upon him mystery and dangerous powers the likes of which haven’t been seen in our world since Merlin himself! …….nanchate
See? No problem with a PG rating here! (not that I ever was worried.)
And then, after she reveals her betrayal, she’s going to find herself with her arrow sticking out of her. Because she’s standing right next to an elven princess who isn’t going to be complicit to such a thing.
So, no; I’m not exactly anticipating such a twist here.
Whether or not she’s a doublecrosser, I have to say that Daniel just may have walked out of a dangerous situation with the person he should REALLY be worried about. Nicole. Yes, he just asked a hot fantasy of dreams if he could touch her, and then he did, but the FIRST thing he did was turn to Nicole and say how cool it was. He’s got his priorities straight. Talk to the girlfriend. That just might keep the girlfriend from slapping him for being such a…such a…GUY…. 😉
I wonder if she will pull Daniel through to the other side just in time for Alex to appear on the scene.
Voted! I am a webmaster for a comic book fan page and I am going to pass the word around over there. “VOTE or get BANNED” lol. I wouldn’t really ban anyone…. or would I?
And today, after 1466 pages, for the FIRST time we finally confirm this isn’t a story about schizophrenia but really about magic.
Awesome.
Oh no!
She’s really an alligator with a cunning natural disguise!
Why do her sleeves just kind of…float there…are they supported by wires?
Suddenly fangs sprout from her teeth and she bites Dan on the neck.
Anything is possible.
I’m thinking more like dragging him into Dreamland in an attempt to establish him as the “true king”. Which will cause more problems than it will fix.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Nivienne turns out to be a bad guy- I’ve been getting a “bad vibe” feeling from her from the start!
She doesn’t need to do anything else to Dan at this point. He’s about to have all the issues he can handle with Nicole… who is not going to be amused.
I’m loving these pages. Have a a great Con!
You know Nicole’s going to get jealous, right?
Voting for the first round at ComicMix resulted in… [insert drum roll here]
Dreamland Chronicles wins round 1 !!! Congrats!
It was close tho with Dreamland fetching only 52% of the votes.
Round 2 will feature Dreamland Chronicles vs. Shortpacked!
I’ve never heard of Shortpacked, but I’ll have a look (still voting for Dreamland tho)
The beauty of a tournament of this type is it becomes a grand place to showcase many great web comics. I have a few new comics I follow now as a result.
Congrats on Round 1 Scott, and thanks to all those who voted, be sure to vote again when round 2 begins!
Can’t wait to see what else happens and if Nicole will be encouraged to join in! 🙂
I somehow think that the ominous thing that’s going to happen is, that Nicole is going to not like Dan’s way of interacting with Niviene – but then again, that kind of interaction would somehow not be like her… we’ll see.
The disappearing sword and pouch didn’t convince you?
He’s so close – yet so, so terribly far – I hope, above all hopes, that Daniel will one day be able to enter Dreamland. This scene especially made me feel for him. So much magic happens around him but the closest he can get is holding hands with a mermaid.
Which wouldn’t be bad, if he wasn’t supposed to be king.
Please, do keep us informed!
Meanwhile… our 6,617 voices won TWC #7!
Fellow Dreamies! It is time for us as nations and as individuals to set aside our long standing feuds and KEEP VOTING!
You can do even better: keep yourself informed, by voting every day of the second round! 8)
(Whenever that round starts…)
