#520 – get up

Gasp oh no! I stayed in on this beautiful spring day to draw this comic, and I don’t regret it. (but I’m going outside tomorrow)

I’m pleased to write that starting next fall, I’ll be teaching a course at the School of Visual Arts, the very college I attended! The focus will be on webcomics, and I hope I can contribute some wisdom. The class is listed in the Illustration/Cartooning course book for the fall/spring 2012-13 semester. Check it out if you’re a student and are interested!

Wait don't jump to conclusions. Maybe this like that part in Star Wars with Darth Vader in that creepy tree.

I love it. Not a single repeated face in the strip and all of them are hilarious.

Half tempted to call it now that Jack went rogue deliberately to take down the organization from within.

Or, y'know, some other such similar spy movie concept.

Big time congrats on the SVA gig! That's awesome. Couldn't have happened to a more talented lady.

It's Jack! The quiet one. The one who was so loyal to the guild he could not be with Eve. Jack, who is now (or always has been!) a traitor? Developments developments... *insert love making scene*!

Of course it's Jack, Eve. Get your shit together.

(panel 3 face is awesome)

My old office had windows that were just swiveling panes like that.

Eve has such excellent poses in the first three panels, and her expressions are so Beaton-esque. Heehee. Very nice.

Well, the only sound effect I can come up with for this one is;

Last panel - "AWKWARD!"

Maybe it needs more exclamation points...

This chapter has been so much fun to read! I've just got a big silly grin on my face.

What a waste, he could have been her loverrr...

I'm finding myself agreeing more and more with everyone who mentioned the dream-like qualities of this arc a few strips back. In any case, loving it! The Guild could have their own series (might need a new name though?).

That is awesome news about the School of Visual Arts course! Good luck!
