Breakin' that ol' fourth wall (6/9/05)

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

I take it Danny and Crystal are still in the alternate dimension. But where the hell is Adam then?

hey, a brief cameo by the first Liz...cool...surprised not to see Crystal and Danny from that dimension complaining about all the Go Fish they've been playing over the years

They wouldn't be complaining - time in that dimension is relative. Like NARNIA. Only backwards. So they haven't been playing very long.

Ack, I know the feeling. When I had a comic a few years ago (terribly done in paint) absolutely EVERYONE used to beg me to put them in it. Assholes >=(.

I'm assuming you mean me. =P Lena. You know. You saw me once, way way way back when. Ben's my boyfriend, though this is the first time Greg has ever acknowledged it in the comic XD

Just pop a Divine Shield, Greg.

(What class is Sagus, anyway? Since one of the comics alluded to Greg playing WoW instead of working on the comic.)

That's not entirely true. I believe our true assumption was that Ben was going to piss Lena off so much that she'd de-ball him by now. Much to our surprise, he's refrained. I'm proud of our boy. :D

Why be proud of him? Sounds like he's not the one who's shown restraint.
Oh I get it.
He still had to find someone with the patience.
You're right. Good for him!

Narnia... as in... The Chronicles of Narnia? As in, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe"? Old classic book series? Any of this ringing a bell? (I hope to goodness you're being sarcastic in asking what "ainran" is...)

Time in Narnia, just in case you're unfamiliar, runs a bit differently than in the real world. If I remember correctly, time there passes much faster than it does here. In the first book, the children (the main characters) spend what seems like years in Narnia and age appropriately. When they return to the real world, however, only a short time has passed, like only hours, I suppose, but they remain aged as though they've been gone for, you guessed it, many years.

Think "alternate dimension" from DBZ, if that helps any. -_-;

But by Greg saying that time runs in his alternate dimension like Narnia, only backwards, I think he means that time passes by there more slowly than it does in the comic's world. So, even though Crystal and Danny have been there for years, to them it only seems like a couple of hours or whatever.
