Don’s tirade mostly became a series of half-completed sentences and loud angry screeches around minute 11, so no one really missed much.
This week kicked my ass all over the place so I’m very behind on the things I should have done by now. On the plus side, my fiance had an awesome birthday party, I’m possibly picking up a second part time job, and I’m finally getting around to watching Dr. Who.
WBW page 3 will hopefully be up in the next 3 days or so, contest prizes to follow a few days after that.
For a vote incentive, have a look into the future! OoooOOOOooo! Actually, it’s just the sketches of the pages I meant to have done.

To distract from the lack of Shades content, have some other lovely comics! I added these four to the links page and they’re all good reads.
Antics is a comic that I can’t really explain why I like. I just do. The humor and the art remind me vaguely of Adventure Time, so if you like that you’ll probably like Antics. Also there’s alt text.
Geneseepaws recommended The Fox Sister to me a little while ago. It’s a beautifully drawn comic a deals with a would be (could be, maybe?) couple and a clash of religions. Not to give spoilers or anything, but there’s also a fox.
I happened across Grayscale completely randomly. It just happened to be a randomly featured comic on one of the ranking sites, and I’m glad to have stumbled across it. The story so far is interesting (if not a little disturbing) and the artwork is very nice, especially the expressions. If you like shapeshifters it’s a good one to add to your reading list.
Aaand finally, Wizard School. I’d call it a NSFW comic, but not grossly so. Basically it’s about what you would expect in the Harry Potter universe if Harry was replaced with an amoral, 30-something year old man with a thing for drugs and hookers, but everything else stays the same.
Thanks for reading!

Oh man doctor who. What season are you starting with?
The one that starts in 2005. I’m at the end of season 1 now.
Heheeh, oh you’re in for a treat!
Also I just noticed, Jael’s choker thing’s tied in the back and I think you did a really good job drawing the tie!
Well, so far I’ve got to say I enjoy David Tennant as the Doctor. I just finished season 2… looking forward to the post-Rose story.
wait for the 11th! he takes the best parts of all the doctors to make a really unique and cool Doctor who.
Ehh, I dunno, I liked 10 better; he was less of a jerk. Still though, 11 does get more good plots, so long as moffat doesn’t get… moffaty in them.
Anyone have any opinions on the older Doctor Who from the 70s? I burn through series pretty fast so I’m wondering if that’s worth a watch after I finish the newer version.
ok.. I know Tattle was in the same room with Don, and then went to supper with don… so has an alibi for most of the time this all occurred… but that just makes me all the more sure he did it
Found someone who might like the comic, dunno if he’ll be a fan or not. But he’s reading it, now.
You can’t prove that Tattle did it, and Don can’t prove that Ten did it, Ten was with Don for most of that time, and was asleep in bed, (with no witnesses) but surely one small couln’t do THAT much graphiti in the time expected — without TONNES of help. No? Yes? Maybe, if Tattle helped?
Aw come now… there are plenty of other people to spread them blame onto. It’s not always those two behind everything.
Heh, though that really reminds me of a line out of a fanfic I have bookmarked:
“Possibly the only thing Sideswipe was more accustomed to than getting into trouble was getting into trouble for something someone else did…”
It’s a funny read if you’re a Transformers fan. (And I mean the good kind… the pre-Michael Bay kind.)

i don’t see how any kind of transformer fan would be bad. well o.k. I can think of some but i don’t see how being a fan of the Michael Bay transformer fan is bad. After all, it’s just a different take on an already great franchise. there is no good or bad. Only different ideals.
I can respect that. I’m just not a fan of Michael Bay movies. As far as the Transformers movies go, I look at it like this: He had a chance to really let the few characters he chose to use shine by giving them personalities and some decent screen time (or lines in some cases), and instead opted to focus on really kind of annoying human characters and gratuitous explosions. Which is fine for the average teen/pre-teen, which is what I’m guessing the target demographic was, but it sucks for all of the older fans who grew up with other series where the characters might have had some ‘spark’ to them. With the exception of Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Starscream, someone not familiar with the franchise wouldn’t have known one character from another because they were little more than screen fillers. It would have been amazing if he could have made them -people- instead of big flashy death machines.
Also, I feel the compulsion to mention the upcoming Ninja Turtles movie he’s doing. If there is a wrong way to handle a franchise, it’s that.
I feel bad for those stuck with clean up duty! XD But, eh, that’s life I guess!
avsaroke, I will have a gift for you tomorrow (friday the 7th for me)
Whaaaat
