UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

  1. Some friction, but yeah. IRL, I’d like these two…they should have kids. 😉

    1. I might have to draw out what their kid would look like. First thought is that their kid would look like Ongo Gablogian from “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia”

    2. He’s pushing 60, she’s maybe 30, more likely less. Chuck is most likely shooting blanks, and besides, he’s talking to her like a baby sister than a love interest.

      1. Up in these hills, sometimes family is all y’gots. 😉

  2. It is really hard to have a favorite character, as there are so many good ones. But I think Rosa is my favorite. Chuck is a good accomplice in sneaking work, but not much for romance. Uugh.

  3. I mean, if they don’t have at least an inkling of what’s going down, I’m actually disappointed in Clearstream. If anything, I’m starting to wonder if they caught on and realized “Wait, we can use this.”

    Because of course they can. 😉

  4. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    I’m way ahead of you – I’ve been waiting for you to catch up. From November 2020:
    I would hope for nothing less – her and Chuck have the potential for a great deal of positive mischief.
    Speaking of which, I received the email notifying me that my order for the NSFW “Chuck and Rosa Finally Do It” (age verification required) limited edition hardcover is going to be delayed due to the pandemic. I think it’s really cool that you’ll be adding some additional stretch goal goodies when it ships – thanks for all your story and art.
    As for the inscription, ” We owe it all to you ” will be sufficient.

  5. Partners in crime! 😈

  6. A crime so perfect she went full on wall-eye!

542 – Catching Up

Flashbacks and formats

I’m going to confine myself to a shorter blog since it’s Dawn’s birthday this week and she worked hard getting the comic done early so she’d have opportunity to relax and be treated to a nice dinner and I suppose I’d best not hold that up with too much blah-blahing. You may have noticed on a readthrough (or re-readthrough) of this comic online that our lettering style has evolved over time. Oh, we settled fairly early on a standard font for the dialogue, but the spacing of the dialogue has gone through some changes. Noticeable changes if you happen to be looking out for them. Our print volume collection represents when I went back through and standardized everything for consistency’s sake, whether or not anyone may have consciously been aware of it. But here, when I have the occasional bit of “flashback” or “previous footage” of someone saying something, it will occasionally cross the borders between a previous lettering stage and the current one. In these cases I’ve elected to leave things alone and let the older version of the spacing, etc. nest itself within the new page. It’s supposed to be something ripped out of time anyhow, right? Might as well let it look a little off to set it apart. I’ll probably bring it all back in line again for some print version down the road where the original moment can be reformatted as well, but for the moment it never seems to be so jarring as to need an immediate overhaul, and might in fact be more jarring if I mucked about.
