And then one and a half weeks later, I come out with an even longer comic.
And augh, was this painful. ... Not to mention this has a very long list of characters. Maybe I should have done the "EVERYONE'S HERE!" copout. D:
See, the early part of the week, I was out of town and had to leave several times.

My grandfather was hospitalized--and it turns out he actually had a heart attack, and some of his arteries closed off. Had to put a stint in them to reopen them.

He's alright now, though. So I focused on getting this comic out the door.

DEAR LOAD WAS THIS TIME CONSUMING.

You guys have surely noticed that for the past year or so, I've developed the habit of reusing past drawings. This one is pretty much 100% original, save for some reused ones that I went over with a fine-tooth comb.
And given it took me half a week to finish, I think that says my art is getting to a point where I just can't do this all the time. Especially considering I have so much other stuff to do.
Like Key-Fu V. 19 days. Nothing done or prepared. AUGH!
Well, at least this is one of the nicest looking RWs I've done to date. Wish I could have put this much effort into the three years anniversary comic, but college prevented that.
Anyway! With the possible exception of Nth (I'm not entirely sure ... I know "Ich habe 2% milch" is a catcphrase of his, much like "SKANKBOWL
FIGHT!") everyone you see here actually KNOWS the language they're speaking in to some degree. Though because some of the guys weren't around the whole time, I had to talk to other fluent people (Es for Spanish, Shin-Kun of the Parish for Japanese) to get some translations. Thank you guys!
Anyway ... Sniff actually knew some Russian at one point, too! He's been out of practice though, so no more vodka for him.
As far as Lenz, he's an American-born Chinese ... I think. Or is he a Chinese-born American? Heck, I don't know. However, he did warn me that's not Mandarin Chinese. So, er ... native Chinese speakers, keep that in mind. D:
Oh, and that truck he's in? It's a reference to C&C Generals. Chinese supply truck. Yeah, cheap shot, I know. He loves it, though. It gets good gas mileage.
But yeah, with the exception of Lunaris (who's Quebecois and TOLD ME to put that notice about crazy Quebecois words in there ... If you're Quebecois and you're offended, hit him! Not me! D: ) everyone pictured here is American. AND WE'RE SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGES. HOW'S THEM APPLES? :D
Well, I'm not. BUT I HAVE AN EXCUSE! I FORGOT WHAT FRENCH I LEARNED!
All I can say now is ... Je ne sait pas, je ne parle pas Francais. Without the accent. OH SNAPS.
You know, I think this is one of the few times Novvy's actually acted like a jerk.
But hey, you guys got to see Novvy again!
AND YOU ALSO GET TO SEE HIM
DIE.
:D;;;
Actually, I think Novvy is immortal, just not invulnerable. That's gotta suck. Can't die, but you still feel pain, and lots of it!
Gee, I hope that's not Corrupted Blood. Last thing we need is a blood plague like what happened in WoW. HOW'S THAT PLAGUE, BEIGE? :D
