Page Commentary No. 121 (Patreon)

Gunwild: You know, there are times, like this week, when almost all the good stuff in a page comes from Psu, and I feel kind of bad. Like I'm not contributing enough, and maybe I'm not a very good comic writer. On the other hand, I wrote this one and I am not ashamed to say I freaking love it.

Psu: It's an absolutely perfect script.

Gunwild: If I had to change one thing, I think I would change Mr. Skwidj to saying "Wahh!" instead because "Nahh!" could be confused for him saying "No" and not buying it. But, live and learn.

Psu: Sugar which is Powdered is also great. I also really enjoyed the coloring on Nimoo's "ghost form." But I think what I enjoy most is... we're goofy enough to just roll with a comic like this. It's a bit of an interruption into the main storyline but Holiday comics were important to us. And we like playing with the unique physiology and circumstances of our characters to tell simple jokes in unique ways.

Gunwild: I like that Nimoo probably had a really fun time concocting this plan, reading about Halloween, maybe practicing his ghost face in front of a mirror. "Oh, self is most frightening now!" If only the spirit of Halloween could stay with us all year round...

Psu: Is it worth thinking deeply about what exactly a Vanaa ghost should look like? It's not like they have bones. And most of them don't have mouths for spooky wailing.
