I would beg your pardon for my tardiness, but it's a long weekend. For the 4th of July, right? And Canada Day. So, it's... it's okay. Somehow.
Well, we're all distracted for one reason or other. Have a great holiday and a fine time with your extra day off! If you got one. I know not every store closes.
Incidentally, I almost had Betty say "What a lovely day!" But we already have Zandra doing the Sigourney Weaver thing, and we can only quote so many movies per page.
Hey now, Betty is a sexy bunny-girl-thingy, not some monster
Did they really think Zandra wouldn't take up arms to protect her loved ones? Beautiful page xD
They assumed themselves stronger than her in methed-up mob form. If they'd ever met demon before, they might have had a better idea of the sort of being they were dealing with.
It's Ok Joe, we all know that you were distracted by canada being 150 today :)
So getting drugged up doesn't help when you stick your arm into a running BlendTec blender? Who knew?
Like Dabbler in Girl Power, Betty never goes below a 10. And rarely below a 12.
That's still my favorite scene when they introduced her, the swirling sakura blossoms like a Shoujo Ai manga, Max's perfect facial reaction showing how done with her crap she is.
"Jesus Christ Dabbler dial it down!
Betty's one of my favorite characters, she just scared the#!!@%$**!!! out of me! Well done, your work just keeps getting better. AWESOME PAGE!
Same. Love Betty to death, which is good, because she'd totally murder me in some ironic and humorous fashion, I would imagine, were we to meet...
Vampires disarmed as a tail is unfurled;
Zandra's in town, and all's right with the world! 7@=e

Yeah, when I saw that long arsed tail two weeks ago, I figured this is what would happen, everything on Zandra is either made o acid or blades, and one doesn't jus extend a twenty foot appendage without intending to use it.
She dices She slices She can make Julienne fries/'\/'\/'\/'/'/'/-----
When Betty speaks, I hear it in Michelle Gomez's voice. Which, the accent doesn't quite fit.
But what the hey?
So, are these vampires the kind that can reattach and/or regenerate limbs or bits that get cut off? Does this kind of damage actually fully kill them?
It would really suck being immortal and just being a pile of body-parts.
So is Zandra aka Sandra Eastlake able to take in questions again now on her Ask Zandra Blog or will she still be too occupied with the current vampire revolt for this meantime?
Wanna put offender
Arms in a blender
Watch em spin round
To a beautiful oblivion
Looks like time to start a bonfire of vampire parts.
Honestly I think the thing I'm gonna regret more than anything else when this webcomic concludes is no more Betty. She came so late in the comic and I love her so much. I love pookas, and she's both crazy and hot at the same time.
"You wont kill" is only a limitaiton if you have to kill to archieve your goals. Bloo has forgotten to consider that.
Some times Betty gets excited and her game face slips. Then this happens, and I'm on sleeping pills for a week just to get any rest.
O_O
Hey Joe! just quick question.
Once Zebra Girl wraps up any chance we could get some Betty Adventures? Dosn't even need much of a plot, just our fav. pook causing mayhem here and there.
Hm. Well, I don't know. But sure, there's a chance!
Man, great work like allways. Now I just want to grab Betty and dance with her in the rain of the limbs :D
Getting a NERV vibe from Betty.
i.e., "God's in her heaven..."
Friends and countrymen, lend me your ears!
And any other parts you seem to be missing at the moment, yup, even that.
Thank you kindly, we'll put them to good use.
As none has made mention of it yet, for the fair and honest reason of the lovely distracting Betty and her lovely distracting teeth -
- or alternatively and equally fair, our dear Szandra and her spinning tail of problem-solving -
- all the same, I wish a moment of recognition for the one come fully into his own. Bravo, Wally, for this moment of fury-fueled affirmation, reminding of whom and what you have become.
"I don't need your pride. I have my own."
Fewer words have been more inspiring than these.
Bravo, good sir.
Now bring the pain.
Hey Joe, prospective webcomic writer here. I want to ask you some things: How do you write? Do you use a comic book-style script? If so, do you ever have anyone else look over the script and 'edit'/beta-read it and give you feedback before the page gets illustrated?
Well, to be honest, my writing method is somewhat scattershot. I usually type up a rough script and then design the page accordingly, and of course there'll often be changes made right at the last second. And I always keep it to myself. I've got no one offering feedback until it's up to you in the audience.
I wouldn't recommend looking to me as a role model in this particular respect. I have a rather "skin of my teeth" approach, and frankly I think if you can embrace a more structured approach then by all means go for it. I only work the way I do because it's what I've done for years, I've grown into it, and even gotten sloppier over time as my technique evolves.
My script is written in bits and pieces as I contemplate what should come next, some shreds of thought coalescing with improvisation based on what grows out of the plot I have in mind and the needs of the moment. I suppose you could say I'm primarily a visual scriptwriter... half the time the pictures help to dictate the words, rather than the other way around.
It's possible that my current method is a result of the comic nearing completion... I have less story to plan ahead for, and it's all finally coming down to a resolution. I might be a very different sort of writer if this were a newborn comic!
It's bittersweet that the series is wrapping up. On one hand it's such a pain that that these wonders will eventually cease. On the other, I'm starting to feel my years and was worried that, at your perfectionist pace, I might not live to see it all.
But as this last arc draws near it's end, I can't help but wonder:
What the HECK is it with Chalk? Will we ever find out?
