Again, another amusing last frame. I was wondering what was so funny for her in the last page. Now it seems we know.:D

Despite the wait, it was worth it.

Matriar 08-15-2010 05:50 AM

Sorry I was extremly inactive lately. Also graphic-novel-wise, I think I just needed a break. I really hope I didn't make anyone mad here. :c
But I'm back again with a new page.

By the way, it makes me happy to read all this nice feedback I get from you guys here. <:]

Yey and heh at the last frame! Made me laugh a little bit out loud And I actually don't laugh out loud that much, no matter how much lol I write. =D Glad your actively keeping this running.

Thanks a lot! I try add at least something funny per page, I'm glad it even made someone laugh in real. :)

yey, nice one

Alf Shall Rise 08-15-2010 08:33 AM

Good page, I see Vorac's father was mentioned again, and I like the character development as well. Can't wait to see the next one! :D

Oddey 08-15-2010 12:42 PM

This novel intrigues me more and more.

Don't worry about the break, we can wait.:D

Dipstikk 08-22-2010 11:29 AM

This is really great stuff. You have a knack for dialogue that I have to fake.

Matriar 10-30-2010 02:55 PM

Thank you very much for your kind comments, Scrabtrapman, Alf Shall Rise, Oddey, and Dipstikk! :) They mean a lot.

WHOAH I am so late with pages, I'm sorry. But here's page 9!

So far, the pages were mostly about introductions. Now the actual story is slowly getting started (I hope).

enchilado 10-30-2010 03:25 PM

Awesome! I had to catch up a bit because I missed a few pages, but I enjoyed all of them. This is really great.

Splat 10-30-2010 03:50 PM

Intriguing; is this his job, or some private business?

Very pretty page. Worth waiting for.

Mudokon_Master 10-30-2010 08:29 PM

I love them maybe someday they can be really big. You should publish them in the paper or something.

Oddey 10-31-2010 08:54 AM

Who could this mysterious figure he is chasing after be?

Wonderful as usual.:D

ziggy 11-03-2010 03:19 PM

Wow you're drawings are still really great. I haven't really followed the story though but that one (horsy thing) girl is ripped. She has like serious abs. Sorry if that was insulting but I don't really know what these creatures are supposed to be, and I'm too lazy to look into it right now. My only suggestion would be to make the speech bubbles look more professional cause they kind of take away from the images. I didn't realize you were still on here cause you changed your username, but you were actually the first person to talk to me on these forums. Could you please contribute to my "fan corner" thread I'm trying to revive? hehe. Please! I'm kind of desperate for some feedback and need more popularity in this part of the forum. Ya I know I'm begging for attention.

It's... private business, but it will get more clear later.
And thanks! c:

Thanks! I plan to find a publisher and print them as comicbook once I'm finished with the first volume (around sixty pages I think). The pages won't have the watermarks then.

The horsy girl is a sheep, lol. And no, didn't sound insulting. Senanca is a hybrid and I don't know what he is, I just like to think he has weasels, goats, and felines in his family tree. :P

Page 10!

ziggy 11-23-2010 09:05 PM

I went back to first page and read everything you posted so far. So now, I'm following the story. Hope to see more soon. Good work. :)

enchilado 11-25-2010 03:35 AM

Nice! I really like his expression in the last panel.

Oddey 11-25-2010 05:19 AM

Oh that expression is hilarious. And even more amusing is how Senanca is talking about how people are asking him for money right before Marvin asks for some.:D

Splat 11-25-2010 05:29 AM

What does Marvin do round here to make up for all the trouble he causes? :p

scrabface 11-25-2010 05:31 PM

I really like the balance of your colours you use for your graphic novel.

Matriar 01-02-2011 11:55 AM

Sorry I didn't manage to make a page for December! I gotta be dead honest, that month had too many distractions, especially fun ones, and I'm weak. Ironically, there's not much happening on this new page here. The next ones will be much more full. I really should try to make two pages per month!

But wow, thank you very much for the kind feedback, guys! :) You're very supporting, it helps me more than you think.

Can't tell yet, it will be shown later. ;]

STM 01-02-2011 02:08 PM

Ah yeh. Story starting to fill up? Me thinks so.

Splat 01-02-2011 02:38 PM

So that guy actually does do something useful... It's good he has such an understanding boss!

Oddey 01-05-2011 05:16 AM

My my my... What could be in that building? And what will happen with the police and Marvin? And when will the next panel be here?:D

As usual, absolutely spiffing.

scrabface 01-06-2011 09:36 AM

(He said he just saw I'm from Switzerland and asked whether I'd join the Fumetto contest.)
I don't know what that Fumetto Contest is.

Next page! I really should try to make two pages every month. x)

ziggy 01-18-2011 06:14 PM

Senanca's design is just so cool. I can't help but think he is the star as he becomes the focal point every time he appears because of his garish BRIGHT as fuck pink eyes set against a mostly muted everything else.

scrabface 01-18-2011 07:22 PM

the fumetto festival is a comic contest, but the deadline's already over. but, Daniel Clowes gonna be there! I don't think I'll show up as it would take me a 9 hrs trip with the train through the alps. oddly the fumetto festival takes place in Luzern.

Oddey 01-22-2011 01:34 AM

Ah how I love that guy. His facial expressions cannot help but make you smile.

Matriar 02-14-2011 11:15 AM

Ahaw, thank you guys! :D It's so much fun and supporting to read your comments.
Senanca is indeed one of the very main characters of this story, I'm glad you like him.

Next page! I don't think I'll manage to make the next page until this month is over.

Matriar 02-27-2011 11:58 PM

Look at that, I managed to make page 14 before the month was over, aha.

STM 02-28-2011 12:09 PM

An interesting development, after 14 pages though, where's the story leading, are we gonna see some big event, I suppose, in retrospect, the next slide will have to be =)

Oddey 02-28-2011 12:17 PM

Ah, I enjoy this novel. Oh so very witty, and at the same time quite intriguing.:D

enchilado 02-28-2011 07:02 PM

Very nice.

Splat 02-28-2011 07:58 PM

ziggy 03-11-2011 10:59 AM

I see an ass whoopin in the near future. By the way what are those blue ridge things on that guy's face?

They are called mandrills. Don't worry, it's completely natural.

ziggy 03-11-2011 12:53 PM

Ohhhhh sorry I didn't get that. That makes sense, I guess I either forgot what a mandrill was or he didn't seem very baboon like.

Matriar 03-19-2011 03:40 PM

Mandrills are related to baboons actually, but they're not baboons. It's okay by the way, mandrills aren't a very known monkey race (while everyone seems to know Rafiki for some reason).

Anyway, thanks a lot for the comments again guys! I'm glad you enjoy my silly story. :D

I just noticed that there's now a new max limit of 500.0 KB per picture in this forum, so here's a link to where I posted the comic page on DeviantArt http://gloomyunderwoods.deviantart.c...lary-201543580 because you can barely read the page when I have to make it smaller for this site. (You may have to click at the picture on DA to get it to full size).

ziggy 03-19-2011 09:12 PM

I posted the same thing on deviantart but:

Bouncers get paid more for getting beat up? WHAT?

I don't understand your logic.

Matriar 03-20-2011 02:24 AM

Vorac was never officially hired as a bouncer, Senanca said Vorac should have helped the delivery guy before, but Vorac came too late and missed it, and also couldn't do cleaning jobs as chances were not available because the customers were too busy. Then Vorac waited for that guy to come back to help unload the truck, remember?

Anyway, Senanca knows it's his fault Vorac got beat up because he forgot to tell him to let Kevin pass. Senanca is also impressed that Vorac still tried to do his job good and not let anyone pass, and even kept Kevin away for at least a little while.

I think it's just Senanca's way to apoplogize for that mistake he did too.
