Welcome back!! The KODT Webstrips sort of took a back seat the past few weeks. ComicCon followed closely by GenCon took its toll. Back on track now — promise. 😉
Speaking of ComicCon, he wife and I were eating lunch one day at the show and I pulled out a copy of BOT #34 and started reading it to her aloud. I haven’t read the strips in that volume in problably six years or so. I was surprised to find I didn’t remember many of them.
When I started reading “Love Calls” I found myself looking up at the byline at the top of the page. Had I REALLY written this…? I honestly didn’t remember a word of it. It was sort of nice being able to step back from one’s work and view it honestly from afar.
I have to say I was proud (and surprised). I told Barb, “I’m going to run this as a websrip when we get back” and wrote a note to do so.
Speaking of KODT isseu 190 shipped a few days ago. The August issue!! This is the first time in memory that I haven’t come out of the summer con season two issues behind. I call that progress.
Game on!
Jolly
i’ve occasionally asked a ‘what if”; what if Lexxy was real, but was just a role-player like Brian, and thus all those stories were just Brian talking about in game events they’d shared?
brian has a tendency to relate to reality as a game, so the reverse, that he got so caught up in a game’s events he forgets to tell the rest of them he’s talking about a RP session seems plausible.
the second ‘lexxy was real” alternative, that he was in an online relationship with someone who he’d never met personally, who lied to him, is almost as depressing an idea.
Pretty kewl
The whole ‘Lexxy’ business really shows you another side of Brian’s personality, good stuff
and a train wreck waiting to happen, heh,heh,heh
