Description So here are the disclaimers for safety's sake:

Do not accept a ride from a succubus, not even one as apparently helpful as Angela.

Do not allow a ninja to trick you into giving her a ride, not even one as bouncy as Miyuki.

The #47 bus does not actually go downtown. I have included it because I used to take it to work, and therefore it has a special place in my heart as the bus that convinced me to buy my first car.

That said, I was going to draw full backgrounds for this, but once again I shortcut it for expediency's sake. The bus came out well though, it looks much better than they do in life.

This comic marks the first appearance of Angela the well-meaning yet incompetent succubus in a speaking role; when last we saw her she was having her bath interrupted.

Enjoy,

There is no such line as 67X in San Francisco.

Not now, but there might have been 10 years ago when I drew this. The current 67 bus Muni doesn't have an express, but also doesn't go anywhere near Civic Center, but Golden Gate Transit had a route 67 that did (which has since been consolidated).


Presumably I got that number from a route map - the 47/49 were the buses I used to take to work, I don't remember what the third one was.

That's what I mean. The sign at the MUNI stop said 67X at the bottom. There's only a 67. The 67 also runs in the Mission and Bernal Heights (Why it's called the 67-Bernal Heights) so only the 49 meets with this route.

Yes, I would have based that sign on either a real sign or a route map, and both of those could have shown GGT 67X (since there is no Muni 67X). That's my best guess, since I drew this almost 10 years ago I don't actually remember.

ha ha, I like this one, shows your characters quite well in the short period of time that the comic lasts for.

There isn't anything directly following this (about their drive downtown) but more comics in the series can be found here.

I know about the other comics...I suppose I could commission a follow-up, if you were interested of course.

Sure, no need to commission it really, just respond here with what you'd like to see happen next.

I really hadn't thought about what that would be. I have a couple other ideas for Angela, but they're independent of this particular comic.

That's Miyuki the ninja girl. She appears in about one quarter of all pictures in this gallery, but most recently she has bothered her roommate here , shown us the tools of the ninja here , and taken off her shirt near a small dinosaur here .

She figures into every multi-panel comic I've posted, one way or another.

love it, p.s. it may be a bit of a rushed background but it still looks better than the ones in the comics/cartoons (and all of mine when i can be bothered to draw them, which is almost never, hence the suckyness-and no, that didnt bring forth a succubus)
