Description PREVIOUS "ALEX IS A PIRATE" PAGES: eviltomp.deviantart.com/galler…

Sorry for missing Monday; I forgot how bad I am at keeping schedules. But don't worry, I have comics for Friday and next Monday as well, guaranteed!

Also, the last frame is based on a piece of artwork someone drew, but unfortunately a certain website is down, so I don't know who to credit right now; one person named Scribbles did a cool rendition of the original piece, but the original artist is still unknown.

"Seriously, what the hell is going on here?"

That's something I ask myself everytime Preston uploads something.

This is basically how the plot functions in everything he's ever written. "Things are happening because."

An acute observation!

I'm kinda shooting from the hips in writing this story... but I do want to address those kinds of things in it by the end.

With all this business with Dob-God and Lord Preston, there was no way I wasn't going to use it in some way.

Hi, Evil Tom! I really enjoy these comics, and I think your art has a lot of charm, and a lot of potential, so I'm temporarily resurrecting my crusty old DA account.

Just thought I'd point out that it's difficult to tell where exactly Sam is in the two top right panels. I know he's meant to be behind Alex, but because of his size and how close he is to Alex, he reads as almost being in front of her. Also he'd kind of weirdly squashed into the corner of the panel. Perhaps he would have been better off next toooo ... the other girl whose name escapes me?

Howdy MrSeahorse! I appreciate that you dusted off your old account to leave a comment.

Concerning your criticism... I kinda see what you mean. What I wanted to do was try to keep the panel balanced, but to also make sure it was clear that Alex was up front and Sam and Atea (the other girl) were further back.

If you were to redraw those frames, what would you do differently? I'm always curious to see what other people would do!

Since it's easier to show than to tell, here's a quick redraw: mrseahorse.deviantart.com/art/…

Hope it's useful to you!

Unfortunately, they'll run into an artists barrier that will keep them out

Y'know, I did have plans for there to be a barrier between the World and "The Edge of the World"... but it was just going to be a simple locked gate. I didn't think about using the "Artist's Barrier" thing...! So, I'm gonna steal your idea; hope you don't mind!

No problem, I am happy to have my "witty" comment become part of the comic

I'm not gonna lie; a lot of my good ideas have come from other people. In fact, I don't think there's a single artist/writer who doesn't pull material from others.
