#415 – The other side of the story

Whew.

Thanks all for helping me reach and even surpass my fundraising goal! If you ever wanted to support or donate to Lint, I only accept donations once a year (unless my equipment explodes), so here’s your chance! The bookmarks ($10) and sketch ($30) incentives are still open until July 1st. Whatever extra I have left I’ll use for assorted art supplies and the other smaller Lint-related expenses that tend to pop up over the year.

Nearly everyone has requested that Zedwig be the subject of their donor sketch, and OH SNAP I have to draw Zedwig again a bunch of times. What torture! Oh woe is me! Please no one else pick him, please, and I mean that in a Brer-Rabbit-and-the-briar-patch kind of a way.

Thanks too for all the suggestions for the omake. Like I said, I’m going to attempt to use all of them, and it’s not too late to submit your idea (there’ve been some realllllly good ones :D ). Look for those to start on next Friday, with this coming Tuesday being my last regular comic page update until Tuesday, July 14th. Family road trip, whee-hah. Pray I’ll survive.

Thanks for reading all.

    As a critic, I usually see little to nothing in the details of drawings, as the perfect noob I am in the matter, but for some reason the swords movements in the fourth an fifth panels disturbed me.

    I wanted to comment still to express my gratitude. Sharing such talent is very nice of you. I am now a true fan of Lint, thank to Zedwig(mad preferably), to Stump, Hope, Xylic (the sockets), Al'bert, Ali’ce (yes Ali’ce) and even some figurant which each amazed me in a most unique way. It's a shame some has to die, but I'm sure that will be worth the awesome development.

    In fact, you made me want to learn and draw some fantasy stuff. Lint is the first webcomic that game me quality fun from the very first page to the 415th. I went to read about the Bactine and Al'bert blog too, and there as in Lint every line, I am awed at you talent with dialogue and characterization. You make it seems so easy... I feel inapt with a pen now. (If you ever wonder about the grammar & expressions here, sorry, I'm not familiar with English enough to help it yet)
  • Zypher
    Your grammar is pretty good... but it was Al'ice. XD To match Al'bert. Because I'm obsessed with things like spelling.

    One of these days Colby I'm going to get that fanfiction actually written for you...
  • yerk
    WHERE IS AL'BERT!!!! *cry*
  • Crystal
    omgoodness!
    i have an idea for the dialogue for the next page!!!
    Fang: i didn't kill him!!!!!!
    Sang: O.O
    Fang: i shot him with a tranquilizer dart and had the guards pull him into the dungeons... he's still there
    Sang: yeah right!!!!
    Fang: i know, softie, right, bro?
    Sang: O.O
    and then fang tries to kill sang... lol weird, right?
  • Crystal
    *sniff sniff* so tru, sang... so tru...
    wow fang is a crybaby... seriously, sang's right- wait a couple more years, pretend (if you must) to be a good boy, and you would have survived.

    now... die... or get thrown in jail and don't die, cuz u are kinda cute ^-^

    P.S. Colby? LOVE THE HAIR ^-^
  • Fangwine: Mamaaaaa - life had [i]just[/i] begun! But now I've gone and thrown it all-away : (

    How does that disarming-move (in this page) work? He attacks from the left, and then swipes-down from the right..?
  • Well if you must know...

    He did a swipe across from the left, knocking Fang off-balance, then twisted this sword over and around to disarm him.
  • Edit: Disarming people is more fun when using robots... Like when you do a robot-duel, and accidentally disconnect the other robot's circuitry... It was fun to watch that happen, and even more fun to win a medal - because the other robot could no longer work.
  • Ah : )
    I was just so confused - and I do fencing - so I should have noticed!
    Fencing is fun, in fact. But we only use foil/epee/sabre/rapier, and the only time I've disarmed someone (quite by accident) was when I slipped my blade under his scoreboard-wire, which yanked-out the weapon to which it was attached!
  • stormcloud
    Oooh, go Sangy! I LIKE what he said in that last panel. He's right. Fang was just a bit of a cry baby, wasn't he? Poor guy . . .

    Sang's pose in panel five is pretty awesome. I love his expression. I love panel six and panel seven. The lines are amazing, added with the coloring and the background. They just look so dynamic and cool--and emotional, too :( Poor Fangy! And Sangwine! WAAAAAH!!!

  • lizybeth
    PS - <3 Sangwine in the third panel. And I've never seen him look so serious as in the last panel...
  • lizybeth
    Aaaahaha. Everyone wants their own images of Zedwig to hang on their wall and enshrine? I cannot imagine why =P
  • Hey, I voted for Teitnl. :-P

    (Though Zedwig does have his own allure. I think it's the mystery or something, you know, yada yada. :-D)
  • Crystal
    O_O <--- hypnotized look....... me: he's.... totally.... amazing!
  • Mariel
    Love Sangwine's expression in the fifth panel! <3
  • Darth Claire
    Poor misguided Fangline.
  • Zypher
    ...Everyone seems to want Fang to win and right now I'm going "Take 'im out, Sangwine! Just make it quick!"

    And I'm dying to know how Bactine is doing!!! Please let us knoooowww!!

    I love this comic, can you tell?
  • LeafyGreenTerrorist
    Bactine= x_x?
    Al'bert, can you hear me?! Are you alright?!
  • Mad-Dawg
    Yay! Colby draws feet just like me. Haha. Take that Barrett. And when do we get to see Al'bert?!? I really like Fang- especially his hair- in the 6th panel. And this is the part where Fang insults Sangwine, does something sinister, and regains the upperhand. Great job Colby. Keep up the good work please. Tis very nice.
  • Kade
    Love Fang in the 6th panel, such a great pose and expression!
  • Crystal
    yeah i like how he's kinda kneelin at sang's feet...
  • spas
    i don't think fang can be redeemed - he will come back to haunt the good guys later if allowed to live. but...i don't think sang can kill his own brother either. agh!

    and what of bactine? <hangs on to seat>
  • CC
    I'm really enjoying the run of coloured pages! And I think Fang is doomed here. No weapon, and Sang's allies on their way...
  • In other words, Sangwine's going to be flat on his back in a page or two? XD
  • Mariel
    He has his sword... he's just on the floor.
  • Crystal
    yeah but sang's steppin on it! lol
  • Falco
    Gah, what a cliffhanger.
    Go Sangwine~~
  • Jess
    wow ... I super like this page, Colby!!!
