    I think my largest complaint with these recent strips is that they're too busy. Between the backgrounds and all the detail in some of the character designs, it's getting a bit hard to tell what's going on at points.

    It's kinda like the 21C Transformers designs, they've got tons of components in them and at times (like when they're transforming) it's a little hard to tell what's actually happening. The 20C Transformers were substantially more simplistic and the graphics were subpar by today's standards but at least you could tell what was going on.

    Right now, you've got planes flying through the air and row upon row of faceless soldier in the background, plus a few fairly decent character designs, plus a big dragoness and a large detailed metal dragon robot-thing. That adds up to quite a lot of clutter in frames that aren't quite large enough to hold them all.

    Add to Lying's complaints; comic is too small as well. (text hard to read)


    Also, Rand didn't make the best choice of where to show up.

    I did like the effect of when that dude was sliding when the princess queen hit him. I thought it was quite effect, amusing, and awesome.

    It's hard enough making the Battle for Eternus panels, those closeup shots and overlapping panels are insanely hard. the endless expanse of faceless soldiers all doing the same exact thing is awkward enough. Generally, in terms of a real battle, people in the background makes it more realistic. However, the text bubbles are a new one.

    oooh...keeey...

    Comic 286 is up. A bit of a semi-canonical satire on my own comics.

    Due to the nature of the next comic, Comic 287, will be a Battle for ECC arc comic.

    Bah! Air strike should have hit the crowd in the background. Which is in the foreground for some reason.

    More of "raze the large crowd instead of a couple single enemies" should have shot differently.

    Yeh I was pretty pissed off, luckily it took me like 10 minutes to make and Paint never crashes.

    Even luckier, due to me actually saving, I only lost the last 3 panels. Sadly the 3 panels take an hour to make and i'm a lazy bastard.

    As a fancomics section reader I can say that I really want to read this but DAYAM!

    Perhaps making a "What has happened so far" comic or two (or three) would not be innapropriate.

    i'm assuming you're the guy that got WTwU for the Secret Santa?
    That, and you don't regularly follow it? XD

    That would be tricky to make now, because I have to make the next comic, and work on the Christmas and 2nd Anniversary special.

    Actually I'm not... But I don't envy the guy who did have your comic.

    I figure it must be pretty popular to chew through 50+ pages. So... whenever you're able.

    the closest thing I already have is the character bios. Else you'll have to trudge through all 280-something comics.

    Besides, it's not as popular as you might've been lead to believe, check the date on the first post of the first thread.
    We're encroaching on our 2nd year anniversary. I suppose that makes this the longest running OotS fancomic.

    Anyways, if you like what you see, I highly encourage that you spread the word of this comic's existence to everyone ya know on GitP.

    Comic 285 is up. Hopefully, be able to get something done for Christmas.

    ABR, Remember, C2H5OH and Endless all have you beat in terms of time, but you have a larger archive than most of those. (ABR has you beat by over 1.5K comics. )

    I guess the Woods thing is sort of an inside joke amongst Americans.

    And even gods are capable of sarcasm Keris.

    WTwU Christmas Special '09 is up. It takes place sometime in the canon future, so that's why Torn's equipment is different.

    Yes I know it's christmas eve right now, but that's the idea.

    No, I got the joke. It was just SO completely out of place in that comic! It's like seeing a Micheal Jackson joke in a book of Shakespeare! Sort of.

    It just really threw me off that comic.

    Nice Christmas comic, by the way. I don't get why Torn forgets that it's Christmas Eve while she's holding a Christmas tree, though. Very random joke. Not in a good way. But the whole "Christmas Elf" logic fail thing was hilarious.

    Well for the Anniversary Special I was thinking of doing my first Q&A for this comic. Basically, just ask questions about the characters themselves or a general question you'd like to see any of the characters answer.

    And tomorrow, hopefully, i'll be able to post my guest comic to [CENSORED BY THE INQUISITION] and post our guest comic from [CENSORED BY THE INQUISITION].

    Well sadly, due to some issues, the anniversary special will be delayed...by like...a lot.

    In the meantime, Comic 288 is up.

    edit: and Guest Comics from The Q, Ichneumon, and one from me to Mad Mask are up, check 'em out in the Extras section.

    Reasonably good plot I think, but I am too out of it to be sure.

    I am up to 117 as I write this. Your layout and grammar often have mistakes. At one point you repeated an entire panel for no decernable reason, and then there was something where you had the "unsound effect" for a guy's head getting disintegrated/blown up/otherwise destroyed in the panel AFTER the energy weapon fired. In 117 there is a grammar mistake in panel 5.

    So... you asked for comments, and there they are.

    117? That's friggin' old. Nevertheless, typos and lapses in grammar and issues with text-bubble creation, or duplicate panels are quite difficult to fix if I don't know they exist. If you find one or several, let me know where they are and i'll see what I can do.

    That, and Xeno's line in panel 5 in 117 is god-awful.

    Fix'd

    And if you have any suggestions for what I can do in the future to make the comic better, lemme know. ASAP.
