As much as I love Baz's face in the second to last panel, the look on his stylized face just to the left always gets a chuckle out of me: http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=30

I love the little bit on the next page between Jones and Reynard Jones: No he got me them because he is smitten with me. Reynard: Modest as ever Jones Also to praise the drat comic even more, no othe webcomic loads as fast per page as this one. It makes reading it on my phone without wifi so nice.

But even then I like how the art style improves as the characters age. At the beginning they're all big headed kids like in a Nickolodeon cartoon but then they get older and become well-drawn proportional human beings. Also redrawing a published work is not a good idea.

Honestly, as a person with zero artistic knowledge whatsoever, I still don't see a problem with the first chapter. Sure, the style is a bit different, and I definitely loved the progression over the years, but the first chapter was what actually hooked me on the comic in the first place. Even if it's far better now, it was still great then.

I wonder why Jones is visibly concerned about Shadow 2? Surely she has encountered Robot and Shadow 2 before. Also I can't wait to see the eventual flashback featuring Jones and Surma arguing, because I hope Jones is actually angry in that one.

Because if she encountered them before, it was when Shadow 2 was a shadow, which was as expected. Now he's solid. This is closer to the original form of the glass eyed men, and presumably a cause for concern.

Just a thought: I find it kind of weird that we're five chapters into the fourth book, after this momentous event that put everyone at the court in danger--and this is the first we've seen of any of the adults. Still no Eglamore, still no Anja. I imagine that when Eglamore and Annie meet again, it's going to be very awkward.

I just got my copy of Volume 3 in the mail. The quality of the printing is fantastic, it's a lot heavier and sturdier than I expected. The coloration is wonderful on it. Ooh, and it's got some extra pics in the back I hadn't seen before, right before the City Face bit. This is excellent, and I can't wait for Vol1 to come back into stock so I can get it and a poster as well. And Vol2 when that snaggle gets worked out!

Huh. If she can do something interesting by sticking her hand near your head (no idea what yet) it makes a couple pages a lot more interesting... http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=376 http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=584

Edit: Misinterpreted what you wrote I..guess, but it seems like she is trying to come to a decision, and it's weird that she'd go out of her way (asking him to remove his hood and stuff) just to casually touch his ear. Bobulus fucked around with this message at 09:51 on Dec 28, 2011 |

Based on the previous comic it would appear that the shadows were originally three dimensional and that over time they faded into the shadows. I wonder if that will make the other shadows jealous of Shadow 2 or resentful. Right now both Robot and Shadow 2 are anomalies among their kind. A robot that wears clothes and talks of an angel and now a shadow that casts it's own shadow. On a different subject does Kat know that Annie's a fire spirit yet? It seems like she does but may have been explained this off page.

^ Yeah, they talked about it while hanging out on the roof right after Annie came back and Kat forgave her for being kind of hard to be friends with, sometimes. So this chapter is apparently about Red getting a name. It occurs to me that we've got two other characters (Robot, Shadow 2) that really need better names, too. Wonder if that will come up.
