Ka-POW!
Yes! Nothing can keep a man from his woman! Especially one who's terminally sick. Poor Marie.
Before anyone asks, I really haven't come up with a specific disease for Marie there. One of my brothers asked me why she was bleeding, but she's really a littl red in the face because she's having trouble breathing. Maybe she has asthma? Probably. I'll have to really research it if I want to do that, though.
If anyone has any suggestions… *winkwink*
For those who check my dA gallery (the “Gallery” link in the Navagation at right) you've seen the last panel at a much bigger size. If not, where have you been? Go check it out, sheesh.
I was really proud of the second panel until I colored it. It seems that all my pictures look so complex and intricate until I add colors… then they just look… drab, I suppose. And the colors in Kavin's outfit thar just don't go well together. Too bright.
Well, today I'm leaving again right after my last class and going off on a weekend family trip… a family reunion of sorts. Yeah.
It seems like I have more to say, but I really can't think of anything.
Laterz.
Cheeko out.

I have no idea of a disease... Well, ya know, you could make one up. Like a magical like disease. :D Anyways, it's touching. That Kavin, rushing in to save her... Err, help her... Yeah. :]

Aww... Kav... that's the name of a very good friend of mine - or was... and so far, this Kav rather reminds me of him. Would it be from Camhanach, I wonder? That was Kav's full name... pronounced Kavanak... maybe I should make a comic of Kav and Duckie... always meant to, but trying to draw those two never works out right. Can never make them look right...

Excellent page. I adore the colouring and atmosphere in the last panel. As for the disease. Are you thinking of a an aquired one or a disorder that she was born with. If the latter then what about some version of cystic fibrosis. It's a genetic disorder characterised by thickened secretions from mucous producing cells that clog up the lungs making the sufferer prone to chronic, hard to shake, lung infections. It also interferes with digestion so that the sufferer is terminally malnorished because they can't absorb the goodness from the food they eat. Historically cysti kids didn't live into their teenage years but with modern medicine some are living into their thirties and forties. Cysti sufferers are generally thin and smallish with a low tolerance for physical activity. They also suffer from endless bouts of coughing and have to have special therapies each day to help clear the accumulated muck out of their lungs. That's one suggestion anyway. :)

I've been following this for a bit, and I must admit.... >________< I'm completly lost.

I'm suspected (we haven't been able to dignose finaly because the test is hard to do) to have a disease that causes my Sodium levels to drop. It makes it hard to breath, it makes you cough, and eventually causes temporary paralis.It's easy to stop attacks if you know how though. ^^ I have absolutely no idea what it's called though... Evidently Sodium is a very important enzyme...

how did she get hurt? I'm so confused.

Neat coloring =) I like the action letters too, well-done.

And now about the comic itself! :D NOOOOO!! POOR MARIE?! POOR KAV?! Fate is so cruuuuel...

(Odd, it ate half my comment. o_O Oh well.) Life expectancy after diagnosis can be fewer then 10 or over 20, depending. It isn't contagious and usually effects young women more then any other age group. Linkage! http://www.lung.ca/diseases-maladies/a-z/lymphangioleiomyomatosis-lymphangioleiomyomatose/index_e.php Or you could always just use Lung Cancer. ^_^; Kinda the same, but you can pick and choose the symptoms more, cuz lung cancer's less predictable (and more common).
iamthatis at 8:54PM, Oct. 21, 2006
Hmm... well I would recommend LAM! That's Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (sp). (Say THAT ten times fast. XD) We learned about it last quarter, during Biology- basically, it starts out with coughing that occurs when you excersize, then progresses to the point where you're coughing all the time. After that, you can start coughing up blood and having random attacks and stuff, then eventually the lung gets infected or you choke or you strain yourself too much... and bye bye Marie. T_T Life expectancy after diagnosis can be >10 or

Bleeding? @_@ Reh, well I saw a documentry on various kinds of venom just yesterday... *can't remember* There was a spider bite that could cause people to start bleeding through their skin, without being cut. Dx Sounds rather nasty... I think it was called a Nerotoxin. Maybe looking up the side effects of that along with some biology could be useful. I had been just a bit confused as to why the guy had rushed in to fast. o o; I thought she had been wounded, somehow...

Why not come up with your own disease. Something found only in your comics world. make it a lil easier on yourself. Also I like the second panel. i've really been working on drawin action shots myself and still can't get it right.

that is so sweet.... ok, I like these two.
Adariel at 3:55AM, Oct. 20, 2006
how about this, she has a heart condition that keeps here from using her powers too much, it puts a strain in her heart everytime she uses it, if she forces her body, she faints, too much strain and she dies.*gloomy ending* on another note, i couldve sworn i made a comment on the previous page, now i cant find it, weird.

The 5th panel is awesome. So she casts both healing and offensive spells?
