Hey, it’s your friendly neighborhood grammar Nazi again! Poor Xavier. he got re-re-re-rejected. Is that right? I can also grammar, spell and punctuation check things better than my English teacher. Also, since I am going to be in Yosemite during the anime- manga con,can you take some pics and post it on deviant art? Thanks!
Ian, WHOM you are reading about.(ps) Look! Gold! GET HIM!!!

Hi Denny! Just found this comic yesterday and read all the way through it. I love it so far, especially the art style, and look forward to reading the rest! Also, “Mr. Sticky Paws” is quite possibly the best cat name ever. :D

@Ians: ‘ “About whom” you are reading.’ Sorry, couldn’t resist… ;)

@Denny When I first found this comic I noticed the discrepancy in the times, and thought “not in the US?” and poked around insanesoft (by the way, I love that name!) and found out you’re in Bulgaria. Then after following the comic for some time I forgot about that, noticed the time discrepancy again, and rediscovered where you are. I think the key point there is that your English (in the comic and in the comments) is good enough that I _forgot_ that you aren’t a native speaker of English.

Also, the perspective in the last panel does seem just a little odd, but it might be because Xavier overlaps the panels above. I’m not sure.

@Keito “@Ians: ‘ “About whom” you are reading.’ Sorry, couldn’t resist… ;)” actually the original “Ian, WHOM you are reading about.” is correct. There are two “fake” rules which are often taught as English grammar: One is the one about not splitting an infinitive, the other is (in the form I like best): “A preposition is what you never end a sentence with.” These were both created by monks (who knew grammar as it applied to Latin) who wrote the earliest grammars of English. Neither one has, or ever had, anything to do with the actual grammar of the English language.

@Keito
Hey there! Thanks for the nice comment, glad you like the comic so far. ^_^/
Heh, must thank one of my buddies who helps correct my Engrish, he came up with that name.

@Purplefire
You aren`t the only one who loves his scarf. :,D

@Rahna
I knew you`ll be happy to see him! And no worries he doesn`t have to be with his owner all the time, only when he needs creative spark. ^^

@Eugene
You are still reading? Le gasp!

@Mr E
Lol this would been so sad… someone`s glasses suddenly drop cause the frame magically vanished. And don`t worry, I could understand you just fine. ^^

@Joel
At least the money have his face on the coins now so it`s not that dull.

@Kinsume
That is pretty accurate though! XD

@Stonefoot
I so need to update that site someday… in fact the comic`s site needs layout update too. ^^;
The comic gets grammar/spell checked by 2 of my friends but trust me, they catch plenty of mistakes. ^_^;;;
And the panel… I think it is because I wanted a tilted shot but didn`t tilt Xavier himself and only the background. Maybe that is it.

@Tales of Shadow
Golden sword sounds pretty fancy! Won`t have to worry about it catching rust.

@Sawyer
Wow, thanks! The best compliment to me is just hearing my work is inspirational to someone. Hope you`ll enjoy the rest of the comic as well. ^_^/

Again thanks for all the comments guys!
Anime con in my city awaits me tomorrow. It will be my first one too, it`s needless to say how nervous I feel. I`ll be selling some prints and …hopefully stuff will sell *laughs*. Was busy preparing for it over the last 2 weeks but thankfully I didn`t drop behind with the comic pages so no need for hiatus here. ^_^/

On a side note I so can`t wait to start sketching Chapter 5 and 6. Especially 6.
