Giant worm, who is your most favorite player on the New England Patriots?

Annie's side-view-face in the last panel there looks much better than the kinda wonky one from the sneaking-out chapter. The shading builds it out nicely.

WeaponBoy posted:Did anyone else find the exchange with the teacher, aside from being kinda funny, but also kinda pointless? Did Blue get the book from her? The teacher didn't give a crap and just wanted to go back to sleep. I guess I'm just overthinking it, just that part of that page seemed kinda pointless. I think it's establishing that everyone in this classroom is a whacked-out fairy crazy person, teacher included. There's no-one in charge.

It's probably just surprised at being summoned without any warning. Blue interrupted it's nap.

Yes but can the worm celebrate properly once he crushes past his opposition and reaches his destination?

I hope not, I can only think of a few things in this situation that it could spike like a football To explain this derail to those who are befuddled and annoyed at the repeated references and injokes, Rob Gronkowski, or "Gronk" as he is affectionately known, is an American football player for the New England Patriots (who will be playing in the Super Bowl in a week and a half) who is notoriously difficult to bring down without him running at least another five yards or even bring down at all due to being generally huge and running really fast and also he is good at catching things. Generally speaking a giant etheric worm monster is probably a pretty good thing to symbolize him.

Also, on the topic of guest comics Tom did for John Allison, don't forget this early foray into the story of the dichotomy between science and moon magic that would grow to inform Gunnerkrigg as a whole!

You know, I see this comic get referenced a lot but never really cared enough to try reading it. But the fire troll story that follows the link is pretty fantastic. I loved the mob. So thanks for eating up more of my free time, rear end.
