I'm only half joking when I say I could take this format (Mercy and Ghoul in the car) and just start churning out strips with that. They would probably not be as important to the main story, though...

That last panel made me laugh~ Ahh, yes, the bonding begins! I'd totally read a comic in this format...~

Yeah, she actually really likes Ghoul. This is just the excuse to show it.

I will keep that in mind, though.

So, I take it you approve...

I'm not sure if this is it, but someone has to be the person shipping Mercy and Ghoul?

...fire torpedoes?

Yeah, didn't think so...

Ghoul and Mercy are my two favourite characters so far! You should make a side series about them on a road trip or something!

Duly noted. :)

I could probably do it pretty easily. It would pretty much be a bunch of recycled images, mixed and matched to the gags...

Hey, that's actually a lot nicer than saying "noob"!
anonymous coward 11th Mar 2016, 1:45 AM edit delete reply
Using "noob" is so very flavourless. I recommend substituting, "saibot," to make the reference more solid.

Given long enough, perhaps the terminology we use here will stick and people will be making Autumn Bay references the way we make Harry Potter references...
anonymous coward 11th Mar 2016, 1:52 AM edit delete reply
This is an excellent setup for some serious absurdist stuff. If you want to do some seriously easy hack-work with this setup that'll have people going, "Oooh!" and "Ahhh!" at your work I recommend searching through the script of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead for a few scenes to just outright steal. Going on from there into something more deep might be worth the effort for building up a buffer of strips to just drop in the pipeline when your schedule slips or you have trouble finishing the normal strips for some other reason.

Still calling him "Kid" though. It's probably a measure of how much she impresses him that he doesn't object--or even seem to notice. :)

People have a tendency to just roll with it where Mercy is concerned... :)

I'm finally caught up. ;.;
Man, I can't decide which of these two I like more. I definitely need to draw one of these two one day, they're too awesome to pass up. lol X3
Great work so far~

Thank you SO much! I'm glad you like it so far!

And I am DEFINITELY glad you like the characters! Mercy and Ghoul are a LOT of fun!
S.A. Sims 11th Mar 2016, 11:11 PM edit delete reply
I just got into this comic today and I am loving the characters.

Occasionally while reading I come up with theme songs for the characters and here is the one for Ghoul.

Professor Etheric
First of all, WELCOME! We're happy to have you aboard! Glad you like the characters!

Second: I love that song and that band. "To Them These Streets Belong" is a huge influence on parts of the story (especially the Unwanted). It's interesting to apply "Savior" to Ghoul, but I can definitely see it. I'm adding it to the playlist for the comic. :)
S.A. Sims 11th Mar 2016, 11:35 PM edit delete reply
It helps if think of the "She" in the song as applying to Lady Liberty or the American Ideal. That's the angle I was looking at it from.

Aw, dang... I will listen again with that in mind...

Two dudes on a coach is out, two dudes in a car is the thing now! ;P

"Kindermage" is just so endearingly adorable. ..so I can totally see why Ghoul doesn't like it xD
Professor Etheric 12th Mar 2016, 1:29 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
Yep, it does appear to be a thing...

At first, he didn't necessarily get what the term was. Now it annoys him. :)

Yeah... They're pretty much friends because they hate Corvus... :P

This is a great page. Am I wrong it feeling like it was heavily influenced by Let It Ride?
Professor Etheric 14th Mar 2016, 12:11 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
Thanks! That means a lot to me!

I have read and re-read Let It Ride, so there is likely some influence there. Also, Pulp Fiction and the Blues Brothers, among others...

this is literally my favorite page of the whole comic. it's too good.
Professor Etheric 1st Dec 2016, 7:52 PM edit delete reply
Professor Etheric
Thanks!

I am still occasionally tempted to start a comic that is nothing but Ghoul and Mercy in the car...

At least they agree with their rage against the "old man" XD

He's really easy to rage against.
