Ch2 19
Either he’s the crassest SOB that ever did live, or he’s being brutally honest with her.
Or, you know, maybe a little bit of both? I’m sure Hasera has some quick-witted quip coming up on the next page.
Speaking of quips, now is the time for another thrilling…
Careful Going
Lark:
This one’s a little on the newer side of things. With only 40-odd pages, it’s hard to give the story any kind of review short of: There’s not much to go on. So, the story follows a girl. The girl can’t speak, there are ships and politics involved and overall, I’m not entirely sure what’s going on – but that’s normal for something this new.
The art’s okay. There’s a bit of action here and there, but it doesn’t last long. Guy gets his hand mangled pretty badly though. I think the artist needs to spend a little more time on making their backgrounds up to par with their artwork, but it might be an artistic choice to make the characters ‘pop’ more.
Like I said, it’s pretty short. I’d say to give this thing a once over to see if it interests you. It only really updates once a month with a stack of pages, so it might be a wise idea to check it out every three months or so to see what’s been going on. Until the story picks up, that is.
Hasera:
A new comic! That’s fantastic! It’s always nice to see more stories and creators who are willing to put their work out there for others to look at! So, this story follows a girl named Telem who doesn’t seem to be able to speak. She’s on board a ship with her older brother when they’re attacked. The two are captured and we find out that their brother, Trent, is part of the crew that had attacked the ship. Telem doesn’t seem to like Trent at all. That’s pretty much the story, so far, but it’s got a an air of mystery behind it
The art is okay. The characters are well drawn and there has been some marked improvement in the artist’s abilities since the beginning of the story. The only real drawback are the backgrounds. They feel like they’re lacking depth. When they are shadows in the background, that’s fine, but a few of them, when front and center, just appear to be flat, one coloured walls with minimal detail – this would work great if the comic were something like Hunter Black – where everything was less detail, but the meshing between the detail on the characters and the dullness of the backgrounds is a pretty hard contrast.
Overall, it’s got an interesting start. This comic needs some time to grow before it can get a fair shake, but I’d recommend it to people who are interested in seeing a comic, and its artist, grow as time goes on. Like I said, there are some improvements in the art within the first 40 pages – a feat that I hope continues in the long run because this comic looks like it has a neat story to tell.
Well, at least he’s being straight with her…
Damn!, now that what I call being DIRECT!
Crazy how he realizes he’s like literally death to his Guardian’s and doesn’t seem to give a rat’s ass… I’m curious as to know why…. Some insecurity that never got addressed no doubt.
One possible answer is that it’s just happened so many times that it’s not worth getting worked up over for him – not because he’s inherently callous, but because there are just so many. The fact that he’s essentially telling Hasera to go get fornicated suggests that he would prefer not to have a Guardian at the cost of not having healing – this could be an indication of something insidious, but it could also mean that he’s seen the pattern and doesn’t want to see it keep getting repeated.
It’ll be interesting to see if the cause turns out to be something to do with the traditional guardian duties, and Hasera not being a healer will actually be an advantage here. Of course, it could also be that the Lark simply does not require a Guardian at all…
Oh, I’ve also noticed that the comments section seems to be overlapping the comics section… It’s really noticeable in the upper right corner of the comments where it overlaps the ice effect on the comic wrapper….
I don’t see what you’re seeing Darwin =(
Oh… Do you have ads completely blocked or prevented from loading? If so, I’ll throw down an empty div tag with a minimum height to make the space
That should be fixed now = let me know, Darwin!
I’m going to guess that her next move is to kick him so hard in the fork that his balls will take up a momentary residence in high orbit.
At least he’s sincere. XD
I’m not entirely convinces Hasera understood the last bit that was said to her.
So, what IS the proper order to the names of the nine gods?
There is only one true God! All hail Talos, Hero-God of Mankind, honour and law.
\[T]/ Praise Talos!
IF YA SMELLALALALALALALA, WHAT THE LARK, IS COOKIN?
I think The Lark thinks he’s The Rock
