C06P01 – You Dead?

When I first introduced Kali in my mind she’d be in the comic more “soon”. Unfortunately, that was in cartoonist time, wherein “soon” is defined by the number of chapters it would take to have more of the character, which at that moment was just a little less than 2. That’s hardly anything, right?
Now, almost a YEAR LATER, “soon” has actually arrived.
Time. It does weird things in the brain. Do you have anything that’s measured in a special “_______ time”?

Chore time. As in, I will do all the chores soon, and then I trip on the layer of dust that has settled over the house in the past six months.
I saw Kali and cheered. Great perspective looking up at her with the sun behind. And Tama! Yay answers!
I think my bathroom clock runs in chore time. And my microwave is in a terrifying chore time vortex.
I’m SO excited to share this chapter because I’ve been wanting to bring Kali in more SO MUCH for SO LONG and now, at long last, the time is here!!
Yay Kali! And I agree, that perspective shot is awesome.
Thank you! The gun was particularly tricking to get right. That thin barrel makes perspective REALLY hard to perceive in a 2D drawing!
That really is a great perspective shot.
I’m like you with the comic/real time prospect…when fifty pages in a chapter covers three days of story time there is an issue! LMAO!
I think we’re up to…three days covered? And…200 pages to get that far…
Well, I said I was in this for the long haul.
Yup and that’s okay – those coming in late to the game get the pretty actiony version, I just get the anticipation of each week’s update!
Payday time. I can always tell what part of the month it is by what is available in the house, and how my friends react to money-related issues. The closer to payday, the less ‘goodies’ available, the less likely it is for people to want to go do anything.
Then payday arrives, and everything explodes in a flurry of activity! Ah, good ol’ payday.
This page definitely made me chuckle. I’d probably scream if I woke up to Kali standing over me like that, too.
Haha, I know EXACTLY what you mean about comic time…not just pages & chapters vs when they’re actually posted, but like, Ignition Zero has been updating for over 1.5 years and only like 3 weeks have passed in the story itself. In 150 pages. How does this happen??
That’s usually the point when creators slip in the, “Man, this day seems like it lasted 18 months…” line.
Time flies when you’re having fun, but crawls in webcomics no matter how fast you’re cranking out the pages!
Yet another gorgeous page. I’ve said it before, but I am so impressed by this comic – if I wasn’t a poor, starving college student, I would already have a hard copy. … Curse you money! Why you no fall from the sky??
To calculate “Geek Time,” simply add an hour to any other time. Game starts at 7:00? Players will arrive 8:00. Gotta start chores at 5:00 so you have time to relax before company arrives? Comics are distracting – you’ll start at 6:00.
Just remember me when you’re rich and famous. I’ll still be here.
Comics ARE distracting. I can hardly blame geeks (myself included) for that!
Awkward wake-up call. (I’m sure Tama is used to them, though.)
“Awkward ways Tama may have been woken up in his life” contest? I’m not sure I completely want to know…but part of me is desperately curious.
Hmmm. Now I’m picturing a “Hangover” style scene, in whatever passes for an Itsuri version of Las Vegas….
Is Tama a ladies’ man? He doesn’t really seem like the type (at least given how awkward he was with Mizha, Zhiro, and Vekken).
I think Tama is a flirt, but I don’t know if that qualifies him as a ladies’ man.
What qualifies him is how successful he is, and I’m not feeling the successful. Although I could be totally wrong.
Bullet Time.
Nuff said.
Put him out of his misery, Kali. It’s for his own good.
Heh. Nope Not dead. :`D (just LOUD)
I’m with everyone else here, Robin: Totally awesome perspective on this one!
Did it take you hours to do that?
*laughs hysterically*
Yes. Yes it did.
