Now I think I've identified your main problem. I suggest you try and fix that when you can.
Great fanart.

Anyway, in comic news. Stampede! I also like that in addition to floating octopii, the forest is home to walruses and landsharks.

Also kittens wearing frog hats. I really am loving all the creatures in this stampede. They're all interesting to look at.

Someone is going to have to show a little more restraint when it comes to helping people he meets in the forest.

"phphphphphphpht"? this is what you're going with?

you sure?
Out of all of them, I think my favorites are "I saw a bird!" and "I forget where I live!"

I gotta say though, if mankind shapes reality with their thoughts via the ether, then a whole mess of people must think, "Nature is awesome, but it's also loving retarded."

Edit: I'm gonna go ahead and assume one of the creatures is saying, "I'm trying to lose height." because it's a Forest creature.

He's leading all his friends to the Problem-Solver. (Every creature in the forest is his friend.)

He's bringing all his friends to meet Smitty. You have to introduce people, you know, or otherwise it's just rude.

I kind of like that Gigidigi didn't draw Annie with the olive/yellow lipstick, I've never been a fan of that color. I haven't read much of cucumber quest, but I've always thought GD was really good at using color.

When it comes to GGDG I consider "really good at color" to be an understatement. No matter how much color theory I read on and practice I still suck at it and seeing her work makes me burn with joy/jealousy.

Someone ought to tell him that publicly displaying your marbles is not appropriate. Please put those away Mr. Charney.

The after-chapter bonus page will be Eglamore quietly shedding a few manly tears as he hoses the blood off his armor, one cracked marble slowly rolling away.

My final copies of Annie in the Forest arrived! This is a 32 page mini-comic set between chapters 31 and 32, when Annie ran away from the Court and spent the summer in the forest.

I’ve been wanting to make extra comics for a long time now, and I’m happy that they came out so great! Along with Part 2, I’ll also be doing other comics based on Gunnerkrigg Court characters and stories that don’t really fit into the main story line and I hope to eventually collect them all into a volume that I print myself, hopefully with the help of Kickstarter. That’s all in the future though, but in the meantime, I’ll have these copies of Annie in the forest Part 1 this month at the MCM convention in London where they will be exclusively available!

But don’t worry, after that I’ll be putting the comic on-line for everyone to read in a separate section of my site and I also hope to get copies sent over to Topatoco for people who want to buy the individual issues.

I hope you all enjoy it!

Yes. Kickstart, please. I will give you a hundred dollars you wonderful man.

In-comic wise, I wonder if Smitty's powers are going to catalyze something on the court side of the river as well. With the impetus of "What chased them?" resolved, this chapter could go almost anywhere.
