EOS 37: Small Particles

Here is the new comic. This only took a week, and visually, I like it, a lot. I apologize for taking the last week off. I should be done with this series in a month or two. I hope you can bear with dialogue and character development. This is generally how I write stories.

Since I have no clue beyond my mom and like two other friends, who actually reads this, (yet I appear to be getting some traffic now days) I am curious if anyone has any questions comments or concerns.
If so, contact me at EOS@midlymiffed.com I would just appreciate it to know who is out there.

EOS 36: Linux in Limbo

I like the idea of a floating text box in space. Regular comics return next week.
Notes on each of these.

1: I don't care; it gets water out of my ears.
2: This only works to increase brand recognition.
3: Let me be clear, this is not my endorsement of Mitt Romeny. I don't like either candidate. This is my endorsement of a "Vote the Bums Out" campaign. Seriously, congress has no accountability. We can disrupt the intrenched power structure, simply by not re-electing someone we hate.
4: I have greatly altered my speech patterns to accommodate this one, but I still slip up.
5: It's something I started as a teenager, and I am finally getting good at avoiding re-infection. (still gross though)
6: It makes spectator sports interactive!
7: I am learning to avoid this, but I am not perfect.
8: I like ice cream, and I am just looking for an excuse.
9: My dreams are awesome, and usually very rational and physically accurate.

10: I made this mistake tonight. Essentially both of us are trying to cultivate cults of personality in the same group of people. I'm not sure I like her tactics. I may have to pull out the big-guns.

Edit: case and point, the dream I had after I drew this involved me being layed-over in some Podunk town on my way to Madison Wisconsin, and meeting Mitt Romney on the campaign trail. I'm not 100% sure why he befriended me in this dream and stepped in when things got messy, (add that to the cult of personality,) and I don't remember what knocked out my teeth... and I will spare the wierd details.

EOS 35: Newton's Third Law of Waterfalls

There is an old joke. How do you catch a Lion using Newton's Third law of motion? For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, let the lion catch you, and you have, in turn, caught the lion.
That and the title, are the hints you get this week.
Now, go and listen to your 90's R&B collection.

I realized with a heavy duologue driven strip I needed to take my time and write it clearly. It really needs its own day.

As for humor vs. story, I get some comfort that the pros deal with this doubt as well.

For style, does the waterfall make sense in the first panel? This went through quite a few iterations, but it did not take that much time. I think I am starting to understand backgrounds. I don't want to make them overly simple, especially, since my next project will have them be blank white. That being said, I don't want to make them distractingly busy, either. I like what I have so far.

I am trying to come up with some Halloween costume ideas. Here is what I have as of yet.
A sexy potato.
A hipster, but I tell everyone that I am wearing the outfit ironically.
The first thing I get from theyfightcrime.org/

Ron Swanson
An abstract interpretation of any song by "The King of Sleaze," Rod Stewart.

Also, after sitting in a lecture today where the people next to me were eating Panda express, I came up with a list of things I encountered today that smell better than Panda. Please note that I love Asian food and its associated aromas. Panda does not qualify as such.

The leaves on the ground.
The rest of the unaffected air in the lecture hall.
The girl next to me at the hockey game.
The burrito I had for lunch. (not a high quality one, either)
The bubble gum the ref threw at the student section.
My shoe that I took off during the first intermission.
Yost Ice arena, in general.
The stench of defeat from having your own goalie kick in the losing goal in overtime, with no opposing players anywhere near the net.
Pretty much everything.

I may talk about my love of comics tomorrow. I have guess I could start reviewing some of the small press stuff I have been reading.

EOS 34: Font Wars

Well, here is the continuing story.
So right now, I am working on storytelling, character development and composition. I like that a lot more than last week, and this took a lot less time than the monstrosity that was EOS 32. Anyway, I like the composition, but I fully admit that it isn't funny, unless you think feeling a major connection with someone over a minor opinion is ridiculous. I, personally, like it though. I will try to put more punchlines in my comics as the stories progress.

Anyway, bed is a-calling.
