Comic for Tuesday, October 29th, 2024
Comic. Running a little late.
In the end I did pick costumes from suggestions, if somewhat loosely. Was harder to find references for some of them than expected in Kally’s case. Anyway, Naomi dressing as a gorilla might have been funny, but that one was discarded as too complicated.
In the end, I wanted Peter and Ila’s costumes to be deliberately somewhat low effort/silly, since they are only playing along with the idea of a costume party in name only.
I did sort of want to draw the crowd to adding a few more characters from the academy we haven’t seen for awhile, but the comic was already running late.
Hopefully the color coding makes it clear who is talking in one bubble (Peter = Blue, Kally = Green, Naomi = Purple, Ila = Yellow).
There will be a comic this week, but it’ll run late. Probably Tuesday night.
Love and gently flowing chaos!
No whammy! No whammy! No whammy!
The style of Ila’s outfit reminds me of “Where the Wild Things Are.” I think it’s the buttons and color.
Whatever game Peter’s playing is harder than Strategema & Kal-Toh combined. He can out-Batman Batman.
So what is everyone dressed up as? Besides Peter and his generic “ghost”, I mean. That one is obvious.
Peter’s comment is funny because basically everyon is dressed very flectively of their job. Naomi is a super-hero, and she basically has said that that is her dream job, and sort of actual job under Peter. Kally is a dragon rider/warrior, like in real life. And Illa is there for the snacks, like a hungry rabbit. And peter, of course, sneaking around quietly and pretending to be dead like a ghost.
Not sure about Kally, but Naomi is definitely dressed up as Starfire from Teen Titans.
Peter isn’t a generic ghost. He is clearly meant to be Sir Patrick Delaney-Podmore from the Harry Potter series.
Yes, I am just making this up as I go along.
Next page panel: the “ghost” sheet flops away to reveal he was never underneath it in the first place
panel 2: dressed at -> dressed as
Frame 6, the lower right triangle, “if Kor’s world is going to chase you for FOR WHATEVER you stole” might make more sense.
Costumes for Peter, Kally and Naomi fit their characters well. Would have liked to have seen Ila carrying the sniper rifle and wearing the long brown overcoat.
++ definitely!
Also Ila appears to have discarded her scarf after panel #3.
Excellent comic, thank you!
Perhaps Ila is going to claim to be someone else after removing the scarf so that she can get more snacks.
Naldru, that makes a lot of sense.
Thanks for pointing out Ila’s missing scarf.
Kally needs the sorting hat from Harry Potter.
Infallible logic! … probably
