The cake is a …
on August 27, 2011 at 12:00 amWe’re having a blast here at FanExpo Canada! Hello to all the new readers from the con, and if you’re in the Toronto area, please come by and visit us! We’re at table A106 in Artist Alley today and tomorrow with the lovely Adriana Blake of “Fall on Me.”
I got the single-issue Namesake comics in as we were leaving for the con, and they turned out great! Isa and I will be signing the pre-orders in our spare time so I can get them sent out this week.




Well it seems that pesky language barrier business doesn’t apply anymore. (The card’s face in that 4th panel, it’s so cute)
And, you guys are awesome for that Portal reference, completely amazing.
Why am I not surprised AT ALL that Ben refferenced Portal?
Portal reference <3
Aww, the card is incongruously adorable. More adorable than any animal thing that’s come along so far, which is kind of a rarity in comics.
The cake may be a lie, but everything else is paranormal reality! And there ARE portals involved!
“I was brainwashing! There’s a difference!” Nice one, Elaine. Real nice.
Oh man. I went “Aww” at the card. I want to squish him.
omg i want to hug the card!!
Yup, I think I’m in love with the card. (Don’t ask me how it works.)
In some stories, eating the food of another world makes you a part of it (indeed, becomes necessary if you want to stay). Could that have happened here?
Elaine might wanna wrap up that brainwashing talk before the card figures out what that actually means.
oh my GOD, all the squees in the world ♥_♥
The card didn’t talk because he didn’t understand them! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SO OBVIOUS.
Any I heart the card t-shirts in the works? Because I guarantee I would buy one after this page!
YES!!!!
The cake is a lie!!!!
That just makes me love you guys all the more!!!
Awesome.
Is it too nerdy of me to say that if we painted him green that he’d look like a skrull?
I can’t speak to how nerdy saying that or debating it will be, but I have to disagree. He’s lacking in the chin wrinkles and over all frowny-face/angry expression and the large pointed ears, or at least, his helmet would be very uncomfortable to wear with them…
THE CAKE IS A LIE!
You have no idea how much I love this character right now.
OMG. Cardy is so precious. Absolutely adorable… If y’know, you ignore the entire tried to to hurt Ben before and the prison guard aspect.
Am I the only one dying laughing at the “Stop playing with the (playing) card”?
:< i feel sad. this page makes me sad.
other than that, always beautiful stuff Isa and Meg!
Thanks for the preview on Friday! I love my prints you guys! You were awesome! ♥
Ahh! We have awesome pictures of you! Check out my Google Plus, and Adriana’s too!
Sweet deal!
I’m still waiting for the day when I say that to a new friend, and they understand the reference. It hasn’t happened.
Aww, Card <3 Can I keep 'im? Pweease?
Suddenly, the card is adorable. It’s amazing how quickly that can happen.
New fan/reader. Loved the Portal reference.
He’s so sweet! Is he feeling sorry for her?
The card is sooo adorable! And awesome!
AWWWWW.
Look at his FACE in the middle panel! He looks a little concerned for Elaine. So adorable <3
OH MY GOLDEN TRIFORCES! PORTAL REFERENCE! YES! ….ignore the fangirling, nothing to worry about.
