Description Here it is: the long-awaited and much anticipated first part of my Gidget comic-book-thing. Not a lot going on in this page, just some establishing shots...
I'm going to try and upload one page a week, maybe two from time to time if I get caught up enough.
Special thanks to ~TheJenjineer for her help coloring this thing.

I like Fritzy. Hope you make more art of him.

You'll see more of him to be sure. He's a major character.

It looks awesome! And I'm slightly embarrassed by the amount of stuff I got wrong.

I wouldn't say you got it wrong. I'd have left it more like you had it if I wasn't trying to match what I'd already done on the cover. You helped out more than you know; in fact 50% of the background is what you did. I re-did it with the cover colors and then blended our two backgrounds together. It's a melange of us both.
(Truthfully, without your contribution, my half would have been rather drab.)

When you look back at our history, you realize how utterly different, in so many ways, machinery and technology could have turned out (and by extension, society).

I really like these "alternate history/world" comics.

So very true.

I'm pretty sure this'll be an "alternate world" more so than an "alternate history". That way I can make more stuff up.

Thanks, it took me quite a while to plan out the setting just right...

Yeah, next time Gidget shall run for shopping that fast, she definitely should have a workout.

Oh, you don't know the half of it... wait 'till you find out why she's running late...

Well, there is a reason I've been waiting for this comic to show up out of the hiatus shelter.

Okay... you got anything to add to that, or are you just going to leave me in limbo?

Just one question... when are you going to post page two? XD

Yeah, I feel both lazy and nasty today. Maybe even sarcastic, after watching Takeshi's Castle.

Oopsies. Then I'm blind enough not to read the description short as this

I really dig the rustic medieval-meets-mechanical town backdrop, very nice set-up.

Thanks. It took quite some time to figure out just how I wanted Sprocket to look.

You know, it's a running gag. *Ba-dum kiish!* Booo. That was bad...
I'll, um, just say thanks and shut up before I pull out another awful pun...

Awfull puns are quite common in a lot of things, so don't feel too bad. As long as your creative 'gears' keep turning I'm sure you'll be fine.....Wait what did I just say say? Oh now I'm doing it too.
