Girl Genius Comic for Friday, April 01, 2022
Added 2022-04-01 01:14:49 +0000 UTCIt's the last page of Volume 22! Yay! Also, arrrgh...we may have to do a Kickstarter later that combines volumes 21 and 22, just to catch up. First, though, is Volume 20 plus reprints. That'll be enough to handle. Maybe a stretch goal or something. It makes my head hurt.
Phil is at WonderCon, booth 1405, setting up! I've included a picture. I am busting my punctuation to get the last of the shipments packed this weekend. I really want to get that new Kickstarter rolling this week. We shall see how I fare.
It's a lovely day here in Seattle, and the trees are all blooming. It looks like an anime around here. I love this city.
And that's all! I'm off to pack and ship. Thank you everybody!

Hopefully it's not just a puny hand fire extinguisher, but a whole hose and the pipes to supply an endless stream of water...

2022-04-02 02:52:07 +0000 UTCIn her comments on the page, Kaja says, "I am busting my punctuation...", so I thought that she might mean she was busting her asterisk, since I am very found of very bad puns. But George Simpson opined that she meant a grawlix, a string of typographical symbols (which may include asterisks) meant to represent profanity in general when used in word balloons.

2022-04-02 02:48:31 +0000 UTCIt did. It's just a SNOWY spring. Alas.
Mary Catelli
2022-04-02 00:29:31 +0000 UTCNo, in the Madness Place they just /don't care about/ other people. They aren't necessarily deliberately cruel.
Brian Harvey
2022-04-01 19:25:49 +0000 UTCI'm happy to see Phil has a fire extinguisher near to hand, just in case ... well ... just in case.
2022-04-01 19:18:09 +0000 UTCCruel but also 100% on par with sparks in the madness place.

2022-04-01 18:56:35 +0000 UTCWe thought spring had come here as well, but we had the first snow of the year this week...

2022-04-01 12:24:50 +0000 UTCSorry, where is this asterisk you're discussing?
Brian Harvey
2022-04-01 07:09:57 +0000 UTCMe three.
Brian Harvey
2022-04-01 07:06:01 +0000 UTCI think she's busting her 'grawlixes', so in this context, yes?
George Simpson
2022-04-01 06:17:23 +0000 UTCWhy muck about with something as weak as Queen Flame when the untapped potential of unbridled Ego could set the entire universe aflame? These gals certainly have enough between them to control a galaxy.
Paul Lenoue
2022-04-01 03:40:11 +0000 UTCIs an asterisk punctuation?
William Ansley
2022-04-01 03:34:12 +0000 UTCI would be more than happy to back a two volume Kickstarter as well. It seems to me that getting two books printed at the same time might have some advantages. (But, of course, I actually know nothing of such things, so I could easily be very wrong about that.)

2022-04-01 03:33:16 +0000 UTCDang! I didn't even notice the Enigma "hair" in the final panel at first.
William Ansley
2022-04-01 03:29:20 +0000 UTCWhen has Lucrezia not been at least a little cruel?
William Ansley
2022-04-01 03:28:15 +0000 UTCPride goeth before fall. Let us hope that Mohanan learns a little humility, for the sake of her rats.
Mary Catelli
2022-04-01 02:12:34 +0000 UTC"Would you like more arms" is a little cruel...
Brian Harvey
2022-04-01 01:53:43 +0000 UTCInteresting that she has an old-fashioned crown instead of a halo of dingbats. (Not a typo.)
Brian Harvey
2022-04-01 01:51:28 +0000 UTCWoohoo! Hooray for a completed Volume 22! I seem to recall that this island used to be part of a larger landmass that got very broken. I wonder how much smaller we - in general - can make it, and how far away we - the people we like - should really be right now. I would happily back a two-volume Kickstarter. Good luck with the shipping, and I hope WonderCon goes well! It looks like Phil came prepared.
Le'letha
2022-04-01 01:49:29 +0000 UTCWoo! The Enigma at last!
2022-04-01 01:41:47 +0000 UTCWhelp, a Lucrezia-free island was a fun idea to think about for a bit . . . (Although I guess double explosions would be something to hope for)
