Girl Genius Comic for Monday, Sept. 27, 2021

Well. We're now out of pre-prepped pages. I suggested that Phil draw something with his left hand, and when he gave me this I thought he might have been being bad on purpose, but he swears he did his best.

I can see I'm going to have to get creative for the near future. Thank you all for your support!

Have Phil practice drawing left handed, and when he goes off meds, it will suddenly become better, and sign them Lihp.

What about an arc with guest artists while Phil recoups?

Yeah, that's the one.

It still looks better than what I generally put out so.... ;-D Seriously though, I'd rather have no pages for a few weeks (or months if need be but here's to me hoping) than have Phil injure himself more by starting too soon. Here's to a speedy recovery!

You don't have to keep us entertained every minute. You could put up a (simple, no decoration needed) announcement of a hiatus due to Phil's injury, and maybe some hint of when the doctors (not Phil) think Phil will be able to draw again without risk of further injury. I think you think readers will desert you in droves. But you have volumes of comic pages to print, text novels to write and publish, and similar Kaja-and-kids-doing-all-the-physical-work activities that will keep us engaged. Plus, we love you and want you to be well. That's the most important thing.

Be well Master and Mistress Foglio. Uhm... So how is the cloning machine comming along, any way? (^_^)

I had to Google that, but it looked super familiar once I got there. This one? https://www.pinterest.com/pin/255790453806389294/ I think one of my school libraries had that at one point... If I ever see one in a thrift store or something I'll grab it and drop you a line here. :)

I just wish I could get the Megatokyo Library poster from back when. (Got the image somewhere.)

Captain Button

Aah! That is it! A buyable print and everything! Well, that would go on my office wall for sure...except it's sold out. Thank you still - it can go on my phone instead. (I'd say "that'll teach me not to search online print shops on not enough sleep", but we all know I don't learn those things. I am distractible. AND undeterred from my reread.)

This one? http://arcanetimes.com/art-prints/girl-genius-the-great-library

Ooh, an actual filler content request: Somewhere deep in the story is a bonus page that had text something like "Books! We love books!" and art of the main cast (with bonus Othar) in the Castle Heterodyne library. It was, I believe, a Kickstarter promo. I am going to go on a mission this week to find where it is so I can ask for a version of it without text, which I have not been able to find. I am a librarian and would love to have that on my phone or in my screensaver. This will involve reading...probably everything from book 5 on, because I have no actual "stop" function once I get started rereading. (Obviously we hadn't seen the Castle library by book 5, but I wouldn't want to miss Tarvek joining the story. No, no, no one stop me. No one can.) I will let you know when I find the link to this elusive image, in the hopes that the text-free artwork is still sitting in files somewhere. XD

Kaja, it seems clear to me (both from this Patreon post and your Twitter entry today) that you intended to post this drawing to the Girl Genius website. Unfortunately, something went wrong and the URL https://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20210927 leads to a "Error: no comic for 20210927" message.

Not steam powered arms from what's-her-name in Payne's Circus?

Captain Button

Good suggestions for posting stuff, but our top priority is a complete recovery for Dr. Foglio.

John Anderson

I think a good way to keep the audience engaged is: Let him draw (with his left hand only) two figures. On Patreon/Facebook we have to come up with dialogue for the panel. Best response gets published along with a new drawing next update. It would be fun. It will give him (hopefully) some laughs while on painkillers and give him something he doesn't have to work hard on. You could probably keep it up for months while he heals up well.

Best wishes, Phil! Definitely take all the time you need to rest & recover. We'll wait patiently!

I can mouse off-handed well enough for normal computer access, but when I'm gaming I don't even bother trying. ...I have enough trouble with my on-hand.
