#395 – Failure to load can have consequences
  • Rachael
    hm... wasn't he wearing red when he came in before?
  • Crystal
    ooh, look at pill bottle.... ooh, she's soooo mad...
  • Brie
    I think Fang is relaoding there....hehe, Fang and Sang. Anyways. Yeah, the good guys are pissy and its awesome! The backgrounds are nice (seriously, good attention to detail in the two last panels with the sun rising and then finally being all shiney.

    And Fang...he just looks stressed. He probably didn't have much downtime in between the hostile takeover bit and fixing all the holes in his wonderful scheme. It must suck for anybody to watch their hard work unravel before their eyes, eh?

    And when is that bloody pendant gonna get put into play?? I wanna know! It's urking me!
  • Technically, isn't Sang making the same mistake again by monologuing?
  • Well he can't just walk up and stab him in the back! Where's the story in THAT? XD

    Besides, it would deprive everyone the pleasure of Fang's gamut of angsty reactionary faces.
  • Annalia
    This page actually makes me want to shoo Sangwine away. I mean... just look at Fang in the third panel! You cannot have murderous intent after that!

    *sighs* I'm a sucker for bad guys. Half the time, it means I get pissed with the way things end, yet love it all the same. XD
  • baretoedgirl
    Agh I totally agree with the sucker-for-bad-guys thing. And you always sort of knew Sangwine would win, so what's the point in rooting for him? Fang's the one that needs it. -_-
  • Catherine
    1) This page is beautiful
    2) Every single page for the past 100 pages has been a cliffhanger, making me love this story even more.
    3) Relatively sure 2nd thing Sangwine did after he probably made sure Bactine was alive was take out the Tide-To-Go pen he keeps on himself at all times.
  • Grin I love #3... selfishly I hope that #4 was give her a little kiss after all she deserves it!!
  • Jess
    It took me 24 hours to even begin to word a reaction to this awesome page ...
    And all I came up with was "Beautiful."
    I'm with everyone else, really - love the franticly unkempt appearance of Fang as soon as he thinks he's alone, love the suave strength of Sangwine's posture, love the "Oh, you done it now!" look in Bactine's eyes. And yes, love how they are operating together now. That's beautiful, too.
  • Alenya
    Great page! Very dramatic, especially the last panel. Gotta say I love Sangwine in the next-to-last panel though... Just one thing puzzles me - Bactine looked obviously drawn and baggy-eyed before, but now she looks all smooth and young again. Is this just the effect of a wider-shot view or should we read something into it??
  • Kam
    I think it's the wider shot view, you can still see a darker tint of grey under her eyes to give it a bag effect.

    And she looks badass. Luff.
  • Zypher
    She totally does.

    I think also that she is recovering though. I mean, when she takes the wounds from someone else, she then ...gets rid of it. Like in the Bactine Gallagher story, when she heals Xylic.
  • whimsicalwishing
    ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! poor fang!! everyone's against him......

    beautiful art, by the way!!
  • Bahnree
    I'm pretty sure I adore every single panel on this page.
  • HelenaHermione
    Whoo-hoo! He rises with the sun--yay, Sangwine! Awesome tableau with that last panel, Bactine's vicious presence is a nice touch, and now it finally feels like it's come to the final showdown--and Fang looks so frantic on the other side. He's got to be going a little crazy, trying to control Zedwig (I assume that's why he's holding his hand to his head) and get over his reluctance to fire--'failure to load can have consequences'.
  • sadfulness
    You just made me think of Avatar, that moment when Zuko says something to the tune of "You rise with the moon. I rise with the sun." (only much more dramatic and kickass)
    .....
    Anyway, awesome update -- there's so many things to gush over that I can hardly get anything out!
  • Tyna
    Yay dawn of a new age!!! Love times 10! Well, maybe Bactine has a little Zedwig in her too now, since he clearly had some of her. But maybe that's now how the healing magic works? They kinda traded there... And with Sangwine, too.
  • so, a new day begings?
    the sunrise analogy its pretty cool, and now theres a few questions still floating out there...
    what happenend here actually?!?
  • Ellie
    Ack! He lives!!!!
  • W00t!!!!! Go Sangwine!!!
  • Succorelle
    EPIC.

    That is all. :)
  • Psalm
    Shoot him in the face this time, Fang!
  • dani
    dun dun DUUUUUUNNNN!
  • Exactly! :-D
  • Zypher
    Just a new thought...

    Is this how Zedwig meant he was going to kill Fang? Like... indirectly?
  • Ha! Kick his rear from here to Mud City.
  • totally love that last panel... they look so.... united
  • Man does Bactine look pissed!
  • Zypher
    *squeal* SangwineSangwineSangwine!!!!

    Okay, all done fangirling characters. Now I fangirl awesome art. Yes. Wish I could draw, yesyes. Or better, come up with good story to draw. I am muchly better at the written stories (still working on fanfiction, promise!)

    So pretty art, love your story Colby! I watch desperately for each page~!
  • I like how you made all of Fang's hair lines kind of scruffy and unkempt, whereas, on Sangwine, everything is in place and smooth. :-)

    And Bactine looks particularly vicious. -^_^-

    (Lastly, for having this page deleted like three times due to power outage...you're really fast. :-D)
  • beldera
    Love the last panel (Apparently Bactine has the power not only to heal, but to magically launder blood out of white shirts. ;P )
  • Sarah
    I noticed that ... she's got some power!
  • yerk
    WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!!!! was fang going to shoot HIMSELF or someone else?!?!

  • lizybeth
