Thus ends the intermission. On Thursday, back to your regularly scheduled cliffhanger.
Meanwhile, we’ve purchased the printer we were talking about last week, and it was delivered tonight. I tested it out using the cover of chapter 10, and it is just gorgeous. We will be offering all of the chapter covers for sale in our store. For now, we are only offering 8×10 prints, but will be adding 13×19 and mini-prints (most likely 5×7) shortly.
We did raise the price on these prints, however the quality between the old prints made at Kinko’s and the new prints made on this printer is completely different. The old prints were done on cardstock, and the new ones are done on extremely nice photo art paper. Mike and I pored over one of the older prints and the new ones, and the quality is outstanding. I’ll have to post the comparison picture I sent to Isa on Twitter. We have a lot more control now and can offer you guys a much better product. I have a few ideas, including doing mini print sets that can be hung in a collage.
And, yes, we will be doing bookmarks. I’m practicing my tassel-making skills now!
Aww! Little Alice! :3 Silly Cheshire.
Even when I was a kid living in the UK “bloody” was a shocking swear word. For a religious man like Dodgeson to say something like that in the 19th Century just shows how out of control he is! The realization that his best “child-friend” has grown up must be a great blow for him. I love the “flashback” memory of Alice laughing. Also the expression on the cat’s face! Great work.
It also shows just how much at the end of his rope he is about that blasted cat.
Well I at least hope Cheshire here isn’t as mischievious as Boris Airay. :3 If your wondering who Boris is, he’s the cheshire cat in the “Alice in the Country of Hearts” series by QuinRose. He looks like a teenage catboy with pink hair, piercings, and revealing punk clothes. He like EVERYONE in Wonderland is love with the main character Alice Liddell. 0.0′ creepy! Lol
Is Dro short for Drosselmeyer? I’d place him as a Writer in this story, as even in the Nutcracker, he seems to create events more than resolve them. Calling for him to help with the cat – might he have been able to control it somewhat even though it’s not officially part of his story? Ack, I’m happy to be going back to the main story, but want to continue here as well!
That cat seems to enjoy causing trouble, doesn’t he?
And if Dro is indeed Drosselmeyer, I hope he’s more… benevolent(?) than the one in Princess Tutu…
The cat is now my favorite character. I really love how his stripes are floating around.
Ooooh, those are his stripes, okay… It makes much more sense than my “floating sausages” theory.
What? I was hungry…
Well, this was a rather short intermission.
Just caught up.
Gosh, this whole comic is just too perfect.
Alice is definitely, as the page title says, all grown up.
the Cheshire Cat, however, not at all.
Well I suppose it’s in a cats nature. And in the words of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, “Cats. Unhelpful no matter what story you’re telling!”
Well being LC’s incarnation, he should know better than to trust the Cheshire Cat…the cat is known for being able to vanish and reappear elsewhere…
Omg I had missed so many pages because of stupid hospital! I’m loving this whole Calliope place, and love Lina and of course the cat would escape, I mean, OF COURSE he would.
I still don’t miss Warrick to death so that means you’re doing a great job with this part (sorry, stupid comment had to be made. Also I might be partially drugged, still).
“Escape” is a relative term, especially where the Cheshire Cat is involved…he can never be “captured” in the first place, since he can be anywhere, anywhen, after all.
Hey but when are we going to see another Alice and Lewis intermission, and find out what happened to Ina all those years ago to make her into the Shadow creature she now is in the future?
