Bibliography II

[rocketpony]

Yeah Raoul! This guy knows how to live!
Poor Satomi :(

Also... a fight inbound? This means there'll be new pages!
LIKE OPAL!?

'gune have you looked at the contest thread :3 Gonna need some pages to fight JUST SAYIN'.

[BRC]

Calling it now. Satomi will get a whitebox weapon, it will take the form of a baseball bat.

[HalfTangible]

That dosn't mean that Pages can use Sigils, it just means that you don't need to be a librarian to use one. Ben technically isn't a librarian (Yet), and he has one.
If Pages could use Sigils, then why use Human librarians at all, why not Page Librarians, the powers of a page plus a whitebox weapon.

It's already been stated that pages can be librarians. They let humans be librarians because they need someone who isn't going to descend and to give them a way to defend themselves.

[Yorrin]

Yay for Raoul character development! Also, I really wanna see his spell now...

[EternalMelon]

You just know Ben wants it in his book.

[Zefir]

Fantastic Page again Elagune. And I like the rate they came up go watch more docus.

Raoul show his power yeah!
But I am more afraid that something will happen that includes Eve to fight. Remember the Lunar Cadex Guy from 4 Page befor!I am not sure if Satomi will get a basket, we even don't know her likes and dislikes.

[Prime32]

Satomi wants blood.

[HalfTangible]

Satomi wants bloody flesh to chew on.

Fixed.

[Mina Kobold]

Woah! Raoul is tall

Or maybe that's just everybody else being small, got any precise number on their height, Ela?

What? I'm allowed to think up silly nicknames for artists, it's on my business card and everything

I'm pretty sure Raoul has always been Tall, and his transformation into a minotaur probably made him taller.

[Yorrin]

I think the super-tall panel of Raoul is supposed to be dramatic heightening and not intended to be taken literally. It emphasizes him as the primary subject of the panel(s) to highlight his emotional progress beyond just a flat "I R STRONG NAO! ROAR!"

[Crafty Cultist]

I wouldn't be suprised if the physical changes a page undergo become more exagerated depending on their mood. That, or its dramatic effect.

i assumed it was camera positioning, myself.

I've been watching a lot of documentaries on the net lately, and I love it because I don't have to focus to listen. This means I can draw and learn at the same time! I've gone through a seven-episode series on animals and their superpowers, a 3-hour documentary on the Great Wall of China, and a documentary on kung-fu weapons already, and am now watching a series about the universe.

I feel smarter already, and unlike watching South Park it actually lets me concentrate on the comic. It's a win-win!

Did you know there's a beetle [whose name escapes me] that can move so fast it's impossible for it to see? (Yes i'm sure i got the grammar right - the beetle is unable to see it's surroundings) That there's a microorganism that can survive ridiculously high AND ridiculously low temperatures? That octopuses will be the first underwater sentient race (unless you count submarines) if their intelligence goes much further? That kung fu was actually invented by the animal it is named after and studied by inmates (monkey style, for instance, was made by monkeys) that i'm not completely sure about the validity of these facts? that dragons have a scientific explanation? that raccoons can fire cannons but don't have opposible(sp?) thumbs? that the codeword is actually denim?

meh

Now THAT is cool.

That kung fu was actually invented by the animal it is named after and studied by inmates (monkey style, for instance, was made by monkeys)

I thought that in (most) cases that's just a legend.

that dragons have a scientific explanation?

Depends what you mean by Dragon. I've heard several theories, none of which satisfactorily explain the fire-breathing variety.

that raccoons can fire cannons but don't have opposible(sp?) thumbs?

Neat.

that the codeword is actually denim?

... I need to know more about what denim is the codeword to!

[HalfTangible]

Depends what you mean by Dragon. I've heard several theories, none of which satisfactorily explain the fire-breathing variety.

I know one that has to do with digesting large amounts of minerals and using the flameable materials from a second stomach (like how cows have more than one) but i actually meant how there are different shapes to each culture's dragons. (serpentlike in china versus the european variety, for example)

Now THAT is cool.

That one's the most dubious since i made it up on the spot based on previous hearings and parallels between our species and theirs: namely, the physically weak, highly intelligent creature with the ability to manipulate objects with precise enough control to classify them as tools.

But it IS true they are the first known cold blooded invertebrate to use tools.

[Gez]

that i'm not completely sure about the validity of these facts?

And right you shouldn't be!

[Owrtho]

Well, cephalopods are among the smartest if not the smartest animals, so it seems like they would be up there.

Also, I can't help but think this would be a good time for Elagune to read through the last few pages of the character design contest to see if there are any good characters to have show up in the imminent multi man melee (even if only as extras).

Owrtho

[Gez]

Maybe we could see Opal on a stretcher being carted away to the hospital?

Actually, it was a bladder for hydrogen. The bladder would inflate with this, decreasing their weight, making it easier for them to fly, and it could be ignited to produce a breath of fire. I remember one section on how platinum would increase the temperature of their fire breath, but I can't remember how...

Ya sure? I could've sworn carbon had something to do with it

[Fayd]

I seem to recall ... Something... acting as a catalyst. There was a show on this on Discovery a while back, I bet it's still on Youtube somewhere...

EDIT: Maybe it was the History Channel. Can anyone find it? My search-fu is weak right now.

[Fable Wright]

It was Discovery channel.

[Viera Champion]

Yeah Raoul! This guy knows how to live!

Hey! I have people complaining FOR ME now.

Maybe we could see Opal on a stretcher being carted away to the hospital?

[Yorrin]

It was Discovery channel.

Just watched the whole thing. A fun watch, but clearly a piece of fiction (as evidenced by the credits, if nothing else). Still, it posits some good theories as to how such creatures might be possible.

I started. One of the parts was missing =(

[Fable Wright]

Here's another, complete, higher quality version that is not missing parts.

[GaijinMangaRep]

Hey everyone. I have two huge updates for Bibliography and Gaijin Manga that I wanted to share with everyone.

1. Gaijin Manga will be represented at Sakura-Con this year. It's an annual all things manga and anime convention in Washington state every April. We will be advertising Bibliography there, moving it to a grander stage for everyone to see.

2. We a currently in talks with Elagune about printing Bibliography. We are only starting talks, but I wanted to hear from the fans. Would you guys like to see Bibliography in a store near you?

[John Cribati]

I'd beg my parents to buy it.

[HalfTangible]

Support Elagune, introduce friends to it, and read my currently favorite manga* wherever i go, rather than just anywhere with internet connection or somewhere where i can rack up phone charges and not get caught?

Win-win I hope it still gets online stuff though =(

The gaming references may or may not be an issue though =/ might wanna double check fair use laws. Just in case. Never hurts to be too safe.

*This is in part because one manga shut down This would've been... let's see, Fairy Tail, One Piece, Naruto, Bleach, RR... yeah, top 6. It IS, however, my favorite that doesn't have a ridiculous/crappy translation.

[Yorrin]

I'll be honest and say that if I couldn't get it for free I would stop reading. Not because Bibliography lacking in any way, but because I have access to plenty of high quality comics for free. I would greatly miss this community, but it would be an unfortunate casualty of the change.
