3-9 Stupid Humans

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

– Commentary –

Craig: Not sure what to say about this one.

J.D.: Angelina kind of lays it on the line for you.  This is one time I feel bad for Leon.  I mean, he spoke unwisely, but getting sliced with a sword was a tad overkill.

Craig: I think it’s interesting that the way Angelina shows her pain and anger is by inflicting it on Leon.  In a way it’s like “now you feel what I feel.”  Archons have a very different way of communicating than humans do.

J.D.: Well, they are a lot tougher than us thin-skins.  I bet her sword stroke would barely have nicked one of her own kind.

Craig: Angelina must either have had contact with humans before, or else her society has a prejudice against them.

J.D.: I’m inclined to believe the latter.  If she had known humans better, she would not have cut Leon so deeply, verbally or physically.  But then, in her defense, Leon speaking without knowledge — as we will soon see — she has great reason to be afraid of his threat.

Craig: I really like your coloring job in panel 6.  You capture Angelina’s almost iridescent skin, while seeming to give off a light of her own.  The cold seeping from her wings is very cool.

J.D.: No pun intended?

Craig: Er… no.  It would have been funnier if I intended it, I hope.  🙂

J.D.: I love working with “special effects”.  I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating — special effects like fire and mist are really freeing.  A lot of times when I’m coloring something, it feels a bit like that.  Like I’m coloring inside the lines of a coloring book.  But mist and fire and light effects — I can color outside the lines, and it makes it look so much better.  I don’t know if that makes any sense, but I enjoy it.

Craig: I know what you mean.  On most pages, we have six or four panels and something’s going on in each panel.  It’s an effective way to convey the story because readers are familiar with the paneled format.  One forgets one is reading panel-to-panel and just absorbs the story and artwork.  But it can get a little — well, like you said: it feels like “coloring inside the lines.”  But occasionally we get a really interesting page like the end of chapter 1 —

J.D.: — and the start of chapter 2 —

Craig: — and the “Be My Guest” page.  Suddenly the rules change, panels are at angles —

J.D.: — or not there at all —

Craig: — and I get this feeling of freedom, like I’m creating a painting instead of a comic book.  There’s nothing quite like it.

    I think there’s an inconsistency with the tans. Here Angelina gets the same purple-brown tan as Haven, unlike Leon who still has the green Mythband tan. But earlier, Angelina also has the green tan..
    (not to mention that she has another tan after she changes her shape)

  2. HugeFan Says:

    I think it’s more like Angelina blends in with her surroundings. In Mythband she appears greenish, and in Haven she appears purplish. Only when she removes her disguise is her true color revealed. Just one fan’s opinion.

  3. Stevil Says:

    I really like her wings on this page. the way they go from smooth to jagged to emphasize her anger is awesome.
