"BIRD!"

Commentary

One might have assumed Susan simply took the sudden appearance of wings and a halo in stride.

One would be mistaken.

Semantics! HOORAY!

This is not change blindness. Or, at least, it is not "officially" change blindness.

Change blindness ...

To be fair to Susan, this is all sorts of gross.

Goody Two-Shoes.

Commentary

And here we get to one reason why I didn't want to go the coliseum route. Grace might not be at the wheel, but we've still wound up with someone wanting more of a pacifist run.

Granted, someone wanting to get through a coliseum as a pacifist has all SORTS of poten...

I'd argue it's rude to look at someone in this situation and say "poverty?!", but I'd argue she makes up for that faux pas rather quickly.

Oh, there are MANY games I can criticize for THIS nonsense!

I don't think fast travel is supposed to be teleportation in most games, but let's just keep that our little secret.

I wanted to give Susan sort of partially closed eyes look while looking up at not-Arthur, but maybe she just looks sleepy?

When sneaking, remember to hold a torch.

Commentary

Something I find rather strange about Fable 2 is that this is basically something you have to do.

Your identity as a "Hero" (some sort of empowered person of destiny) is very important, and a threat to the main villain. In that gam...

 The 90's sitcom audience continues to woo

Commentary

FIRST! A reminder that there WAS a Friday--I mean, THURSDAY EGSNP, so if you're confused, you probably missed that.

Now, on to the actual commentary.

I felt the only way for this bit of a twist to work with Susan was for her reaction to be mi...

(90's sitcom woo)

Commentary 

Is it a spoiler to say this is touching on video game logic?

It is?

Well, the heck with it, I want to say this is touching on video game logic.

What else am I going to put down here, that I spent way too much time figuring out Rhoda's pose in pa...

"She has eaten all of our fish."

Commentary

How to draw Susan with short hair:

Start drawing her hair as you always would, but once you get around the ears, make it short.

I know that sounds like a joke, but that's basically my whole approach.

I used the standard set by Rhoda as the melee hero (buff, but not as buff as she could be) when settling on this character's figure.

See? This is what happens when you get on the plot train, SUSAN.

CHOO CHOOOOOOOOO~!

Commentary

"I've seen Wall-E, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Also, I thought I told you to wear proper clothes, young lady."

Like many things, this reminds me of Fallout 4 (for all its flaws, it's very absorbing. At least if you like settlement and robot building). In that ...

Yet another instance of me wondering "is that too far" before remembering that ship had already sailed.

What? No, I'm not covering for the fact that I forgot the bowtie in the previous strip by making Justin's outfit gradually more revealing. Perish the thought!

Edit - Reworded first panel a bit.

Fair warning, I do like this result. And I'd BETTER, because Susan's long hair is the b...

A fairly late idea I had, in that I only had it a little while after the previous strip was done.

While I've always been aware that hair shapes were the easiest way to tell my characters apart, it didn't quite hit me HOW important prior to the previous strip. Like, yeah, Susan has a different jawline and nose to Ellen, ...

The hottest Susan has ever been.

 Well, of course.

Commentary

This is about hair, I like this fem-Justin design, I wanted light teasing, and this height difference is easier to work with, so yes. Yes to Justin the barber.

In the context Justin was teasing at, a "beard" would be a man pretending to be Susan's boyfriend ...

Yes, the vest had to come of! Because I forgot about it when I sketched her back, and I realized it would be in the way of seeing her back, which meant it had BETRAYED ME!

You probably own several.

I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE ON THAT ISLAND O_O

This both is and isn't inspired by actual Fable 2 nonsense.

This all stands up to logic and continues to not be pandering, thank you very much.

No, I didn't go with this skill leveling up because I thought it would be a crowd pleaser.

Though, if I were pandering, it is what I'd go with, so fair accusation, hypothetical individual.

Maybe Bunny Susan's affinity for Susan hasn't gone up much, but I bet her dancing made y'all swoon.
