Adam Prosser (prankster) says:
Obviously this is taking forever to ink. I'll update it sporadically throughout the day until it's done. Think of it as a searing glimpse into my working methods!
Sunwu Kong (gr8ts4g3) says:
No worries - it is very impressive - so much detail and of course now we shall get the big Climax - No One expects The Spanish Inquisition LOL
Josh Shepherd (bergerjacques) says:
Phantom of the Paradise, The Rocketeer, Mario, Bowser - you worked in a few good references that I could find. The Paradise and Rocketeer are very cool.
Sunwu Kong (gr8ts4g3) says:
Serena seems to be under the sad delusion that she can steal Vince away from Esme - poor fool - perhaps a few years as a newt will cure her of this idiocy?
Adam Prosser (prankster) says:
I just discovered Phantom of the Paradise recently and now I'm obsessed with it. I might actually do a whole blog post on it. Does anyone else think Andrew Lloyd Webber was taking more than a few cues from that movie for his stage version of Phantom of the Opera? Even some of the music sounds the same!
I do kinda wish I'd done another video game reference instead of having Mario AND Bowser--I sorta forgot I'd drawn the latter when I added the former. I guess to be fair and balanced I should work Sonic in there somewhere.

Oh clever, cowboys vs. indians
Marrock Volsung (marrockv) says:
Must be a shame to be rich enough to think everyone pretends to like you just for your money... also, it's a shame her father is such a prick too.
Marrock Volsung (marrockv) says:
Am I the only one that just heard the William Tell Overture?
Dread Lord CyberSkull (cyberskull) says:
Thank you, now it is stuck in my head!
Josh Shepherd (bergerjacques) says:
Wow, I LOVE the backgrounds on the first two panels. The coloring has really brought this page to life!
I'm sorry I'm still behind on colouring past the point I said I would be...things keep coming up. And now I've been hit by a serious cold, which has me behind on this week's strip. I'm still going to have it up in black and white, but I guess I'm still a week or two away from nice regular updates.
Josh Shepherd (bergerjacques) says:
Whoa, now this seems an interesting twist. Apparently she built Vincent in such a way that he could never cheat on her? That's going to have some implications on their relationship - much more than I previously realized.
Adam Prosser (prankster) says:
Indeed. You more or less nailed it (he's not literally physically incapable of cheating on her, but...)
This next part may get a little emo...
Josh Shepherd (bergerjacques) says:
So are all these figures of religiuos intolerance vampires? I don't see fangs on the hot nun, but all the rest of them do, except Ruy, I notice.
Adam Prosser (prankster) says:
If you look reeeeeeal close in a couple of the earlier pages you can see that she does have fangs. It doesn't really come out when I reduce the image.
I'd like to stress that these vampires do not represent the official hierarchy of the Catholic church. Please don't burn me.
Marrock Volsung (marrockv) says:
Time to do some damage.
Josh Shepherd (bergerjacques) says:
Oh, there's Ruy's little fangs in panel 2.
Adam Prosser (prankster) says:
I think Ruy has fang envy.
