Hi everyone!

I can’t remember how long it was since I last updated the comic, but I think it was like, 3-4 weeks ago! Sorry about that… (^_^;) Hopefully I’ll get more time to spend on the comic now when Christmas is over.
The next comic page will actually act as the half-way mark through the comic! I estimate the whole story to be around 48 pages, so there’s still a lot to be said and done – but I’ll get there!

This page will present two (almost ) new characters to you! Chloe and Claude.
They actually made a small appearance on page 6 already, but at the time I drew that page they had a slightly different design. I’m still thinking about changing that page later, to make them look like they do now, but I haven’t decided yet.
Many people have told me that they look like Team Rocket from Pokemon (-_-;)
I’ve watched/played a lot of Pokemon too and I know what Team Rocket look like, so I know what people are saying.
With the new design I tried to make them look less like Team Rocket and more like the other Blup Valley citizens. The biggest change probably lies in their height, because if you look at them at page 6 you can clearly see that they are like twice the size of everyone else! Why did I make them like this? Probably because I wanted them to:
1) Be different from Pierre in any way possible, and
2) look really, really evil! >:)

But then I was thinking “So why REALLY are they taller than the other characters?” Are they from a different country? Are they of a different species?
I couldn’t think of any logical/interesting reason for this, so I opted to make them the same height as the other characters. Did I make the right choice?…

I don’t know when the next comic page will be ready, but I’ve sketched out about 85% of it, so it’s in-the-works!

Thanks again for checking in and for being patient! And if we don’t see(?) each other again before New Years Eve – Have a happy new year!!

Sayonara!
