I’m thinking that they went to Calliope, since the “deck” was held by Jack. Effectively, an emergency rescue system when a card “fails” its protection mission. At least, that’s what I’m hoping.
Augh! I am now caught up with the comic, and must wait with everyone else… fooh.
Stupid ghost. Also, does anyone else think the ghost is what is left of either the original dorothy or wicked witch? Cause that’s what I’m leaning towards.
That ghost is like a doppelganger! This comic is so awesome, and has me so addicted I have read it entirely in three days! Cannot wait to see what will happen Great work, ladies!
Can’t believe I’m up-to-date! I only discovered your comic a couple of days ago and have read almost everything. And by that I mean both the comics and the comments (which have almost been as much fun to read as the comics). I decided not to reply, no matter how much I really wanted to, until I was all caught up. Now that I’m here though I can’t think of anything that hasn’t been said a thousand times over; Namesake is wonderful, you two are evil, and I want more!
Once bonus to my timing is that you’re working on the Kickstarter for Book 2 but I have a very important question that will determine the fate of the universe; do you deliver to New Zealand?
P.S. I mean evil in the best possible way! And maybe… just maybe the whole ‘fate of the universe’ thing is being a little dramatic. But your comic is one of the best I’ve read in a long time and I always love supporting worthwhile literature.
We deliver pretty much everywhere! There’s an extra charge for international shipping, but it’s the same for all countries. Heck, we have a backer that is in a country we never even heard of (me and Megan grabbed a map and learned something new).
Thanks so much for reading, i’m glad you are enjoying it so much!
I thought you would but just wanted to check. It wouldn’t have stopped me spending the money of course, but it’s an added bonus to get the physical books in the process (you need both after all). You’ve got me curious now as to how many countries you have collected readers from. They’re probably more convenient to store than some collections.
Meg, that would be a great surprise! New Zealand has a lot to offer as a vacation spot. I’m sure there are a few locations that haven’t been / won’t be in a Peter Jackson movie that could be inspirational, or maybe bungy jumping to research future escape scenes? *looks for his tourism board commission cheque*
I live way down at the bottom of the country but have been to Chch a few times. Have to admit I thought it was cool when that’s where Alice was. Then had to remind myself that the British one would have had the name first.
I’ll join the few above who also started reading the comic a few days ago and read the entire thing in very large chunks. Your comic is /amazing/, I’m just hoping I’ll get paid before the Kickstarter is over so I can support you both fiscally (and order the awesome volumes in the process!)
(( Also, Isa, your brother Christian got me into this comic strip. We’re university buddies and also worked at the same CO-OP placement eight months ago…. slash we went on a road trip together to the Maritimes. Anyway, it’s his “fault” that I found this and I’m super grateful to him for it, because the comic is marvelous. ))
Thank you, Kate! Don’t worry if you miss out on the Kickstarter. We’ll also be doing traditional pre-orders when the Kickstarter is over. That way, folks who missed out can pre-order a book as well.
Oh Crap. Ghostie has turned back into Emma. And did Ben, Fred and Elaine get transported to Calliope?
To Wonderland?
I hate that ghost so much!
Or did she? Note that we are seeing the right side of the face of whoever. It might be Ghostie or Emma. Only the Evil Isameg knows for sure.
It’s the ghost, just seen from the “whole” side.
A definite and useful answer? This is the “Namesake” site, right?
You ladies are ambiguous enough at times that it is difficult to know what really is. And you enjoy setting the hook.
“My wife doesn’t understand me.” redux: “My on-line comic author understands me all too well and uses this to her advantage.” Think of the Story.
Well last we saw Emma, she was unconscious. Unless Ghost is somehow linked to Emma(‘s dreams)
Hero mode ACTIVATE!
Oh wait, that’s the ghost… never mind.
Here’s hoping the ghost doesn’t meet any more of Emma’s friends or relatives… nah, that’d be too convenient. XP
Hm…wonder where they went. I’m guessing we’re probably going to cut back to Emma and Nose soon.
Did they go back to the deck?
Fred mentioned that about cards and they were all touching each other.
I’m thinking that they went to Calliope, since the “deck” was held by Jack. Effectively, an emergency rescue system when a card “fails” its protection mission. At least, that’s what I’m hoping.
So now we learn lot of things, yes? Please?
Straight to Wendy, Jack and Alice, if you would be so kind. Wonderland is NOT ready for visitors.
Is Wonderland not ready for visitors, or are the visitors not ready for Wonderland?
Oooh, rhetoric… touche.
What. No. Ghost is still walking around wearing our hero’s face!
Augh! I am now caught up with the comic, and must wait with everyone else… fooh.
Stupid ghost. Also, does anyone else think the ghost is what is left of either the original dorothy or wicked witch? Cause that’s what I’m leaning towards.
Welcome to the comic!
That ghost is like a doppelganger! This comic is so awesome, and has me so addicted I have read it entirely in three days! Cannot wait to see what will happen
Great work, ladies!
Wow, three days? That’s pretty dedicated! Welcome to the comic!
Happy to be aboard, ma’am!
Looks like they didn’t stand a ghost of a ch-of wait, only cheesy heroes get corny one-liners, nevermind.
Don’t forget to put on sunglasses as you say it.

Now, the bigger question is: if we win the lottery, can we come hand-deliver the book to you in New Zealand?
I thought you would but just wanted to check. It wouldn’t have stopped me spending the money of course, but it’s an added bonus to get the physical books in the process (you need both after all).

The most unusual country we’ve sent a book to so far is Brunei, which is a tiny sultanate on the island of Borneo in the south Pacific.
One of my closest friends lived in Christchurch for a year, and she loved it down there. It’s because of her that I really want to visit one day.
I live way down at the bottom of the country but have been to Chch a few times. Have to admit I thought it was cool when that’s where Alice was. Then had to remind myself that the British one would have had the name first.

I,ll have to thank my brother, I had no idea he was telling people about my comic *laughs*
So I just had a thought…
If Elaine ever had kids, that would make Emma AUNTIE EM.
Now, the real question, is Elaine going to really want to name any of her children after storybook/fairy tale heroes once this is all done?
MOST AWFULLY UNGOOD
*raises hand*
Another reader from New Zealand here! XD
I’ve found your comic to be utterly fascinating, compelling, funny, and well-drawn! Keep it up!
We seem to be popular in New Zealand. I consider this to be awesome.
Aw, I didn’t think to find a kiwi for my avatar. Curses!
Yes! They got away, they got away (I was right)!!
But, the Ghost is stealing the page’s thunder . . . terrific . . .
Found the comic today and I’ve already reached the end… Can’t wait for more! It’s amazing~
