Close Encounters (page 9)
Fitz on Dec. 10, 2008
Whew! A new page! Now I gotta grab something to eat and skeedaddle off to work. Hope you enjoy! And sorry to basically everyone for not checking their comics the past few weeks - it's been crazy around here, so please bear with me.
My usual mile-long rant should appear here sometime :)

Yup, I was reminded of the eye of Sauron too. And if the LOTR references were what you had me looking for on the previous page: Tough luck, I'm not much of a LOTR expert. Apart from that, I especially like the top right panel, it looks a bit more... graphic than your usual fair. You're not one to work a lot with black ink-like strokes, so that's nice for a change. And sorry I'm so late - just goes to show you how much I'm afraid of turning on my dd alerter ;-)

Vickie, Ghostrunner, Bocaj, RoyceMarie, Nepath, Walrus: Thanks :) Gary: Spot on! :) This whole fairy-tale sequence, and this page in particular is full of LOTR references. The giant spider, the tentacles. The first image that came to mind when talking of the land of darkness was Mordor... And America stomping was supposed to look a bit like Balrog. Trevor: Oops! No mile-long rant just yet. I had a BUNCH of things to say, but I think I elaborated on them a bit in the replies, especially to Gary. Krrack_Nut: That would be evil, wouldn't it? But am I THAT evil? ;) Brogan: Thanks :) I'm having so much fun with this intense color theme :D Jeff: Won't keep you waiting very long :)

Methinks That The "Princess" And The "Beast" Are One And The Same.

Love the artwork and writing as much as ever, and it's great to see an update - even if the length between them is irregular. Looking forward to the mile-long rant update. ;)
