I’ve been waiting to draw this scene for years!
Have fun!

Battling The Storm
That sled is amazing. I love the snow effect that I was able to add. The fact that the snow increases in each panel also turned out really nice, even if it was unintent–I mean, I totally planned that! Yeah!
Have fun!

A Quiet(?) Summer
Ref: Megan | The sheriff’s office | Ichabod
I think Nikki has worn more outfits than any other character. Actually, I’m pretty sure this comic alone puts her well in the lead with four, and I know she has at least one long sleeved shirt. And pajamas. Wow. That is a lot for a comic where a certain fluffy-haired guy wears the same shirt all the time (even under the Santa suit). Actually, he has multiple Stein Auf shirts. Otherwise that would be disgusting.
I had finished editing this comic when I realized something. I forgot to draw Nikki’s head for the top speech bubbles. Oh well.
Have fun!

Passing The Buck
Ref: Percy getting permission to use alien technology.
Percy must be crazy to leave the fate of Megan’s Christmas in the hands of Jorocks, but seeing as she did see Jorocks on TV, Percy’s hands are kind of bound. Better hope Jorocks can put on the beard quickly before Megan notices!
This scene was originally going to take place on the roof of Mulinix Hall again, but I decided last-minute to put it in some non-descript location. It would be highly unlikely that they managed to crash right onto the roof.
Also, when I was writing the script, Percy’s pun was unintentional. It wasn’t until I made the comic that I noticed it and added the “no pun intended” line. Does that still make it unintentional?
Have fun!

Jorocks Is Having A Good Day
This comic had several edits made to it. For starters, the wall/door behind Nikki was originally going to be a Google SketchUp model. I created it and everything, then realized I had a problem: The doorknob was much too high. The door was all one solid object, so it would have been very troublesome to fix with the amount of skill I currently have at that program. Hence why it was drawn. The reporter also caused me some problems. I went throught about four character designs for her. Finally, I have trouble drawing younger or older people (mostly due to lack of practice), so Megan proved tricky. However, I did eventually apply a trick I learned recently from Dan Shive, the man who got me hooked on webcomics. Headbands make people look younger.
Also, I love bean bag chairs. Just sayin’.
Have fun!
