^^ I had been considering it, ever since someone said that the book Soli was looking for earlier was a Real Life title.

Nice teeth, yokel.

Wonder why they're sneaking in.

That page doesn't promise pleasant things in the near future.

I was thinking more like a national day of mourning for the Empress.

Alamand would know if it was, say the day of worship and everyone had to be home/at services/off the streets.

I'm getting an Admiral Ackbar vibe here.

I was thinking mass execution and a pile of bodies around the corner.

Hahahaha. I'm having flashbacks to Half-Life 2: Episode 1, where the conversation goes something like this.

Rebel 1: What's the password?
Rebel 2: I'm not even gonna tell you to shut up.

"Girlfriend?"

I'm not sure whether to be more amazed that he was stupid enough to come up with that farfetched a cover, or at the fact said cover was accepted with only a moments thought.

The term "Great Man" is disturbingly interchangeable with "mass murderer" in history books.

I don't think he intended that as cover. I think he actually believes it himself.

So the comic hasn't been updated in a while but that doesn't mean we can't have a discussion!

I've been following the artist's tumblr lately (great thing to watch, btw) and lately they've started doing Worldbuilding Wednesdays. Every Wednesday they'll talk a bit about the worldbuilding that goes into The Meek, and that sounds fascinating!

Also here's a little bit of character art: three men. The first one is Pinter a year before the comic (alexds1 says, "someone let themselves go", which I find is kind of hilarious, pathetic, and endearing all at the same time.) The second guy is Amen at the same time (not much to say there) and the third is a yet unseen character. I wish I could put a link to the post itself but I can't, so that's odd.

Apparently, the artist is finishing the whole chapter and will release it all in one big dump. I guess she has a day job now and can't keep up with regular updates.

I don't think she plans on posting the entire issue at a time. But yes she is working on the pages & I'm sure she'll start updating regularly once it's done.

Warning: the following post contains a deduction of plot details.

  • take the map
  • turn it (-90) degrees — that is, the right edge facing down
  • take a look on the American Northwest seashore

Earth All Along — do we have a trope spotted? cool

"The Sea of Peace". Pacific Ocean. Yeah, you have a good point.

Certainly, the detail around not!Victoria island there is a little too exact and identical to be a coincidence.

And the fact that there's glacial regions around what's drawn as the left side supports the idea of a 90 degree turn.

I guess that's about the first time I see Canada serving as Grim Up North.
