Circus Windows It's a Trap! John Allison's Patreon John Allison's Gumroad store This week marks the end of the Circus Windows story, so we will be getting an extra comic this week. Furthermore next week Allison begins Author Unknown?, another comic starring Lottie and Shelly, which will be a crossover with Allison's Steeple cast and setting. I'll be posting the comic here unless there are objections by the thread. Also I'm assuming that since this thread has only been exposed to Allison's Tackleford comics (Bad Machinery, Bobbins.horse) readers might be unfamiliar with the Steeple setting. I've started to put together a little character guide that I might post here. I just want the thread opinion on how I should do this. Should I;
Please let me know what you think.

Powered Descent posted:As usual, Hal Foster is knocking the art out of the park in The Medieval Castle. But the storyline feels kind of distant, if that's the right word. I get what you mean. The kids are just too young to be the driving personalities of a story like this (and while I know their names, I honestly don't know which one is Arn and which is Guy, which isn't a great sign). I wonder if Foster was having trouble with this story since the circumstances meant he had no idea how long it would last and maybe hadn't really planned it in advance.

nishi koichi posted:this mary worth arc is some real garbo and it just will not end I'm guessing that it'll take the rest of this week to finish the food court conversation on how the one visit to a therapist solved all her problems. Then next week will be taken up with communicating the good news about therapy to Mary. Then just two or three more weeks of happy scenes with all of them and the dogs, to put a proper denouement onto this thrill-ride of an adventure.

SubNat posted:Moominposting I like this Moomin story much better than the wild west or French revolution-ish ones. I dunno if the writer got better, or if it's just that this one doesn't rely on a weird time travel gimmick (even though the time machine keeps getting mentioned). It just feels more Moominlike, I guess is the best way to put it. It took me about twenty seconds to realize that these were supposed to be butterflies.
