The drama of the bees! Also, in the interest of updating on time, I avoided drawing all those people that are around as much as possible. Let’s all pretend together that they’re still there, instead of a bunch of bushes.
PS: I changed my font.

Oh, the look on Zedwig's face in the fifth panel … what's he up to?
And the conversation between Xylic and Hope is priceless.
May 5th, 2009 at 8:52 pm
Everyone's acting even crazier than usual, Lol! I love the third through fifth panels, that shift from intense to flippant is pretty great.
May 5th, 2009 at 9:22 pm
Zedwig is far too mischevious for my comfort.
Also, for some.. unknown reason, a picture of Hope, holding a plunger that is firmly attached to Goose/James' head popped into my head. You know.. a toilet plunger. Like in the old cartoons ._.
“Bees.” Oh Zedwig, but you are a little bee yourself..
May 5th, 2009 at 9:24 pm
BEES!!!!!!!!
Ack i hate bees but the hint there is so obvious its like slapping me in the face , hes basicly giving them a way to get him asleep and inside the castle. Brilliant absolutley brilliant. I love the look on his face in the fifth panel it is PRICLES.
May 5th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
In that fifth panel, I can't help but wonder if Zedwig is looking at us…yes, us…the readers…*spooky* O_o
May 5th, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Wow. Slightly psychotic mood swings anyone? Geesh. Well. At least Zedwig seems to have calmed down a bit…I don't want any other pretty elves getting fried!!!
May 5th, 2009 at 10:54 pm
Oh, that silly Hope. Always doin'…stuff! Xylic's hair amazes me and honestly makes me jealous.
May 5th, 2009 at 11:08 pm
Zedwig is freaking me out! What is he talking about?!!
Wow, Derf's face is very human-like. Well, I guess you design him after what's-his-face Franz Schubert.
Good idea eliminating the background people — I much enjoy reading the comic more often.
May 5th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
Oo smart. So you think they'll make him fall asleep with bees, smuggle him into the castle, wake him up, and have him attack Fang?
It's a million-to-one chance, but it just might work.
May 5th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
Yes, I definitely like that theory. The shift from the drama and darkness of the last couple of pages, to the absolutely unhinged craziness of this page (love it by the way) is too sudden and unnatural otherwise.
In my humble opinion.
Totally unhinged crazy, though, Zedwig my dear. It just makes us love you the more.
May 6th, 2009 at 2:54 am
The suave side of Zedwig is giving me goosebumps.
In a good way, of course.
May 6th, 2009 at 4:04 am
Thank you for the much needed comic relief! I love this… “I wish I had some bees right now.”…”Doesn't everyone.” hehe…I cracked up!
May 6th, 2009 at 4:30 am
okay heres what will happen….. derf will grab hope and tell her to buzz her wings and maybe even sing to put zedwig asleep run into the castle and fight fang…………….. whooooo (breathsie)
May 6th, 2009 at 9:21 am
Is that a Labyrinth reference? “I wish I had some bees, right now.” Makes me think of “I wish the goblins would come and take you away, right now.”
May 6th, 2009 at 9:51 am
Nope, not that familiar with Labyrinth.
May 6th, 2009 at 10:03 am
I love hope's hair it looks soo cute here….so it will be the goose in the bedroom with the wrench?
May 6th, 2009 at 10:24 am
Bit of a long shot that one Zypher
May 6th, 2009 at 10:28 am
I'm not sure what Zedwig means about the bees, but I'm sure it'll make sense later. One of my theorys is that he just cast 'summon insects' or perhaps Fang is deathly allergic/terrified of bees. Or maybe it really is to do with the buzzing – it interfers with Fangs psyonic control in some way??
May 6th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
did no one think that zedwig could be faking it? Like “bees are my weakness!”
“…Ha ha, nope, they just amplify my power.”
May 6th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
also, xylic is incredibly gorgeous! *___*
May 6th, 2009 at 2:34 pm
Zedwig. Fifth panel. ADORABLE.
I <3 bees
May 6th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
How funny would that be if bees fueled magical power? I can just imagine a superhero with a beehive strapped to his back
May 6th, 2009 at 6:06 pm
He's watching yoooooouuuuu!
=P
May 6th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
Ni, I thought it would be, but I wanted to throw it out there anyway. I've been sleep-deprived despite 10 hours of sleep a night…
May 6th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
WOW! Read Yerk's comment. Very very good idea. Truly truly. No sarcasm… honest. Anyway, i am still hoping that zedwig will break from fang on his own. maybe that is what he is doing right now to some degree. Maybe i am stating the obvious-(that was kinda halfway sarcasm. but only that last “maybe” sentence) Go Yerk!!!
May 6th, 2009 at 9:25 pm
It would definitely give new meaning to “doesn't everyone?” XD
WE WANT BEES!!!
May 6th, 2009 at 10:21 pm
… Wha???….
*Falls over*
(From under the table): it's such a cool page!
May 7th, 2009 at 5:44 am
…Okay Zedwig in this page, awesome! His dry humor right now is making me love him more as a character…I'm pushing for redemption! No more adding him to the LinT cemetary! (and you know he put that in there intentionally! He did he did!)
May 7th, 2009 at 7:42 am
you really REALLY should watch labyrinth, especially if you were ever a fan of david bowie. he will show you the glamour!
May 7th, 2009 at 8:00 am
I have seen it, yes.
May 7th, 2009 at 2:39 pm
A plunger? Hmm… I was thinking of her chsing him around with a pot, threatening to cook his goose.
May 7th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
Lol Zedwig. My theory is that he's just gone completely off the deep end. Or that he's actually a giant magical bee in disguise. Apparently Fangline and Sanguine are both really allergic to bee stings and Zedwig is just waiting for the right chance to sting them both. Well, maybe not Sanguine. I'd cry maybe.
Oh and…..Yes. I wish I had bees right now. It's been my life long dream.
May 7th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
I think my favorite panel is the one where Zedwig puts on his serious face and says “Bees.”
I'm curious as to just what the heck Hope is holding. And I hadn't realized until now how much I'd missed Xylic's hair. Delightful. I also enjoy imagining what Bactine would do to Xylic if she'd heard his “…Women” remark.
May 7th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
i love zedwig's switch from volatile to cheery in just a few panels.
May 8th, 2009 at 5:12 am
thanks a lot! that means something to me!!
May 8th, 2009 at 10:16 am
The random distraction of Hope in the midst of a life and death kingdom claiming battle is so very fun. You've always been able to throw such comedy into these dramatic situations.
May 26th, 2009 at 9:49 am
oh, i hope everything turns out well for Xylic… hey, i'm free!!!
June 1st, 2009 at 8:18 pm
Bees. Bees? Bees. Haha! Truthfully… Bees are one of the most annoying sounds ever. But that's hilarious! I also love Xylic and Hope! Gnnh! I'm gonna kill that goose!

I love how crazy Zedwig is being… it kinda makes me cry at the same time, lol.
“Doesn't everyone?” was *such* a good line! I love his expression!!
