Have you guys been following Lunch Bag Art?
http://lunchbagart.tumblr.com/
You may recall a few weeks ago Derek did a wonderful rendition of Nastajia for his children.
Well yesterday…he did a great image of Alexander (with his son’s likeness).
Aren’t those cool?
Well if you think they are…you should go to his site and see the many other incredible lunchbags he does every morning for his kids.
Just so fun!
I hope you’ve enjoyed this week. And I look forward to seeing you all next week.
Have a great weekend.
Scott
Mention Nicole, darn you! Mention Nicole! Then she’ll snap out of it!
Was thinking the same thing, Kitsunewolf!
Along with “Alex is reeeeally slow isn’t he?” 😀
Well of course he’s slow. Most of us aren’t that quick with our minds when we are sleepy.;)
And my that’s an amazing job with those lunch bags. Better not show your kids Scott or they’ll expect the same thing every single school day.;)
i’m wanting them! and i don’t go to high school anymore… XD and hurry up with your thought process alex!!! METION NICOLE ALREADY!!! GAAAAA!!!!
adds to chorus, mention Nicole Alex.
It’s so odd how everybody knows the plot before it happens 😀
The thought that mentioning Nicole might be helpful had not sparked even a single neuron until I read these comments. Thanks for ruining the comic for me. 🙁
Now I’ll have to find a different comic to read, darnit…
I just spent happy minutes admiring the cool lunchbag art on the site that Scott posted. Fun stuff. So I forgive you all for being much more perspicacious than I, and will continue to read Mr Sava’s dwonderful comic in spite of you. *raspberry* So there. 😀
I don’t think Alex CAN think of mentioning Nicole. The way we see it, we’re the audience beyond the fourth wall. We can predict what will happen because we, to some extent, control him by influencing Scott’s choice to make the audience happy.
But Alex is in a different world. He believes that he isn’t being watched by anyone. If he ever learned that, we’d have an issue on our hands. But we won’t, unless Scott chooses to make cameos in the Chronicles.
That would be…interesting…
I was thinking ‘mention Nicole’ two pages back…
Love the story line, keep up the great work
I was thinking more along the lines of “Give Nicole the necklace so she can come help her old friend!” Alex isn’t in danger, so if Nicole shows up in the armor it (hopefully) won’t hurt anything.
Actually, I found out about this comic because of Lunch Bag Art.
Nichole? No, too easy, there are better things to do with Nichole. Go back and re-read the story line. Has our little kitty girl not shown some interest in someone else? But then again we are not writting this, are we. Another weekend of anticipation. This is great!
While I really hope Alex tells Felicity that he’s seen Nicole and she is doing well, I’m not sure how I feel about Nicole coming to Dreamland. I almost think that would be too easy??
Have a great weekend as well, Scott!!
Hey, thanks for the mention! When will you start selling that armor in kids’ sizes?
Mention Old King Cole!! (Oh wait…) Nicole!
‘sigh’ tis the torture of webcomics that one should have to wait update to update. Love the sensitivity of the past couple of pages, but now we must wait all weekend to see what Alex does and how Felecity reacts… See you monday, and have a good weekend, Scott.
Good morning all.
Lunch Bag Guy…
Ha ha. The minute I win the lottery.
🙂
Dang! Now I feel like a bad parent because I can’t draw worth spit.
Gordon
Wow, those lunchbags are awesome! I wonder how much time he puts into them. It would take me all day to do one 1/10th as good, but he can probably draw faster than me. I also wonder if he has a day job as an artist or if that’s just a hobby.
What I want to know is when we will be able to buy a replica of Alex’s necklace.
well my sugar overloaded brain says mention Nicole..
@Shadowcat
Who hasn’t spoken to the characters of a TV show, book, movie, etc and told them to do something though the character would never hear? Every Sunday, my dad is like a football coach, yelling commentary and offering advice to the Jets that they’ll never hear.
to those talking about giveing Nicole the necklace, I don’t think that would work,
Scott’s world so far has it that the necklace is his key there, it appeared when he was “killed” in dreamland, and becomes the sentient sword. So it might be one of those bonded deals where it only works with one person.
@Darknight:
I wouldn’t choose the Jets as an example (being that they ARE real), but you are right. Anywho, as I said before, Scott will try to make the audience happy, aka Nicole will be mentioned. That sort of small detail would not affect the storyline by much, so it is plausible to do on a spontaneous choice.
Scott, did you intend that the new lighting algorithm ‘burn’ the features off Felicity’s face? Our eyes compensate for these extremes–that’s why Peter Jackson can use fade-to-white to indicate that the “viewer” is coming in or out of consciousness or in an unusual mental state–but they can’t be reproduced in the computer–a monitor can only get so bright–so maybe some tinkering is in order?
Hey Njcommuter…
No. This last week my renders have been getting finished with only minutes to spare to get the images cleaned up and lettered for the midnight upload for you guys.
Normally I have a buffer to re-render such problems. But I’m going to have to go back and tweak these later.
This was purely due to lack of time.
Hey, This is unrelated to today’s comics, I’m just curious–is there any way to get the comics to actually show up in the RSS? I am trying to set up google reader to take care of my webcomics, but apparently I have to click the link to the page for every new comic…which entirely ruins the purpose of an RSS feed where I could read it.
Hi Elodie…
Yes there is a way. I actually have it turned off, though.
The reasoning is…the advertising on this site is what’s helping to pay for development of this project. I’d lose the traffic if I had the pages anywhere but here.
I hope that helps.
Hey, I mentioned Nicole four pages back — and I didn’t even cheat! If she can’t come herself, maybe Alex can talk about her…
What you need is the movie. Then Mattel will produce it for you, hopefully in time for Halloween.
come on! tell her about nicole!
