Reactions to Comic for 11/16/2002

Fun fact: if you recall that technique Nanase used against Elliot when she split into 3 colors, that was the Spectrum technique; it was ki based, and it could theoritically be used by any of the characters who can control ki well enough. Magical Spectrum, however, is the same technique given more "oomph" through the power of magic. What is this technique fully capable of? Time will tell :bunny:

Panel 6, contender for best panel ever.

Nice strategy there too.

In the last panel is Nanase pulling Ellen off to the side to talk?

This is one of my fav ones yet, Nanase's choice of tactics is great too.

Awesome. Great use of color spectrum magic to make a decoy. Green seems kinda playful. Great job Dan. ^_^ Now to see what Ellen does next....

Oh....wait....I get why she's more pinkish in the fourth panel.....

one word: w007. :Popcorn:

Dan, you are my hero

...and Nanase is a close second :jester:

Very good solution to the problem.

I mustn't....cannot....resist....tooo.....late...

W00TNESS!!!

Gah...glad I got that out of my system...

at any rate, it was another GREAT comic, and i fully expect to see more like it in the near future... or my mind will snap...

Now, THIS should be interesting. Ellen isn't going to like Nanase interfering, and might go after her, too. Lets hope she gets her message to Ellen in a hurry.

there are 3 fakes, right? and Dan says they are all independant, so the message'll get thru.

Hmm, just noticed in the last panel that Ellen has some speedlines on her as she's moving frameleft. Either she's going to attack in a new location, or more likely one of the other Nanases is dragging her aside to tell her (or possible both of the other two, one to hold her calm and the other to tell her) ^_^

I absolutely loved the color schemes running through the backgrounds of today's strip...from the vertical color stripes (panel one) to the rainbow circles.

Oh, what the heck. W007!

Great images; Even the most static (panel one) is a great shot of the team preparing for action; very Buffyesque. And now, after a couple of exposition and Taunt The Villain Moments, Dan's kicking this pupy into high gear!!

(Katie, Queen of the Mixed Metaphors!)

BUFFY!...ahem....sorry.Instinct.

Great ^_^

Very good dan! *thumbs up*

I love how you did the background in panel one. Interesting how Sarah and Justin have very similar 'identity' colors. I have to agree with the others, the facial expression in panel 6 is just priceless. "Bleah!" giggling...

:bunny: :cat: :jaguar: :cat:

panel 6 in general reminds me a bit like gotenks Super Ghost kamikazi attack, i mean, just how the ghosts act.

maybe thats what dan based it offa

so this is a split image tech that results in 1 real and two fake copies right?

i kept thinking it was like the split form tech that picclo(spelling?) uses to make 2 or more equally real people.

Great work Dan!

But What About The Marchmallows?!?!?

maybe thats what dan based it offa I know of what you speak, but no this is not based on the kamikazi ghost attack. The inspiration for the spectrum attack itself could have so many sources that I don't even know which would have come first, but that's just in reference to the "which one is real" scheme (which is why Elliot called it "trendy"). The RGB aspect of it just goes back to my physics class, which is ironic seeing as the comic so frequently defies the laws of physics. The illusions having personalities based on their colors (whoops, was that a spoiler? pardon me, must've been something I ate) comes from color schemes being symbolic in art.

WOO7!!!! I've been wating this for ages!!! Thanks Dan!!

Color schemes? <-- . --> Sounds just like my college classes....

Nanase splits into RGB, right? How about CYMK?

K?

Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, the standard for offset printing.... ^_^

how does Black = K?

Well they can't use B, that already equals Blue.

How about Bl? B = Blue, Br= Brown, Bl=Black.... Or atleast that's how it was broken down in my art classes.

*shrugs* I dunno. I'm not an expert on the subject. :p

Good point. I guess they made k black to have an abbreviation similar to RGB that'd be easily recognized....

Now I've taken the thread off-topic. My bad.

I had the same thought, except just Gotenks in general, not really the super ghost kamikazi attack

I might as well mention that Nanase is once again floating in mid-air wearing what appears to be a fairly short skirt.

hmm...i'd just like to point out and smile at the fact that Sarah's hair is now back, and not magically either. i just realized that shes brushing it back. yay :)

To be fair, it was only a for a few minutes that her hair was like that....personally I would have fixed it immediately but I figure she had a lot things on her mind at the time....oh wait....red and blue without 'playful' green would be kind of a purple Nanase....ah...

purple nananse? what does that have to do with anything?

anyway, another awesome strip dan!
definitaly appreciating the backgrounds in this one.

and the goo does not take well to being mocked...

Purple is what you get from you remove green from red, blue and green....although Nanase was kinda red to begin with....hmmm....*perplexed again*
