So nice for our boys to get some fresh air, don’t you think? IS ANY ONE HERE FRIENDS WITH ERYKA SOLEIL? She’s been a frequent commenter on this site and it’s very important that I speak to her. If anyone knows her, could you please ask her to shoot me an email? Thanks! Also, just… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 52
Wait, what’s going on here? They were talking and then maybe there was some kind of hug and then The Annihilator’s hand was next to Kyle’s chest and then it’s a lot lower (WHY?!) and finally Kyle’s just looking into The Annihilator’s eyes and they’re not even saying anything! Did Kyle lose his balance and… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 53
Wait! What?! NO! Snogging a world-famous supervillain while butt-naked and invisible in a public Hong Kong park is pretty special, right? RIGHT?! Ooo. Look! Naked flesh-colored flesh… Nom nom nom. (Oh, and I do very much like Kyle’s expressions on this page. Yes, I do. 😀 ) I’d like to welcome a new reader-translator to… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 54
“You know”? No, I don’t! I’m confused again! What’s “you know” supposed to be?! Why can’t these characters just say what they mean??? ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ ┻━┻ Ahem. We have some brand new Fan Art by Justin, a cool portrait of Kyle in uniform and in action. Definitely go check it out! Oh, and ***THIS IS A… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 55
Whatever you do, don’t ask Kyle about what Christmas was like when he was nine years old. Trust me on this one. (Actually, trust me also by actually not watching that link. That scene is even more brutal than I remember it being. But so perfectly skewered in the much superior sequel!) We have some… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 56
I keep telling Kyle that he should be reading the comments under each page because you all were way ahead of him on realizing that The Annihilator was invulnerable to fire and stuff. But he’s all like “Alex, it’s my life. I don’t want any spoilers.” which I guess I can understand. I still think… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 57
Wait, Kyle is going to be eighteen years old just in time for him to potentially lose his virginity in the pages of this comic? How crazy is that? Really, what are the odds?! I’m going to be at Wondercon in Anaheim, CA from March 29th through the 31st at the Prism booth. If you’re… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 58
Why is Kyle flashing his bare chest (nay! I dare say fondling his own nipple!) while insinuating that The Annihilator would not respect age of consent laws? DOUBLE-RAINBOW IN THE SKY, WHAT DOES IT MEAN? WHAT DOES IT MEAN?! (Oh, wait. I guess there’s a shadow under his hand. So no nipple-fondling. He’s just gesturing… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 59
Wait! They’ve been talking about sex this whole time, haven’t they! Duh! If you have any burning questions for me about my comics or my process or about how to create your own webcomic, now is your chance! Webcomics Wonderland is hosting a Goodreads Q&A at 3:00 P.M. PST on Saturday, March 23rd (that’s today!).… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 60
END CHAPTER ONE. I’m going to be at WonderCon in Anaheim, CA this weekend at the Prism Booth (Booth 1009 near the front of Hall A)! I’m going to have advance copies of Artifice books for sale along with brand-new The Young Protectors merchandise. If you’re in the neighborhood, please stop by and say hi!… Continue reading The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter One—Page 61
