Round One, page 7
on February 1, 2013 at 12:01 amI mentioned earlier that I’d grown to hate giving Sal the hairstyle I’d drawn for her in high school for her flashback appearances instead of the hairstyle I’d upgraded her to. Apparently at this point, I threw all that out the window and just started drawing her with her then-current hairstyle, lumps of marshmallows be damned, even though I’d established that’s what she looked like then. This apparently includes the photographs of her from Danny’s dorm room.
That bigger, ornately-framed photograph is from when Joe was pranking Danny with the shrine, right? I hope so. If not, dude, Danny, what the hell.
Oh, and heh. Joyce doesn’t recognize Sal until she smiles like in the photographs. Clark Kent has glasses, but Sal Walters has a dour expression.
Quickly Joyce, go pee on Danny to mark your territory.
Don’t joke, she’s just crazy enough to do it. <_<
In an unexpected turn of events, Danny drops Sal for Joyce immediately.
I feel like after that, Joyce may have to realize she needs higher standards.
I am ok with this!
That last panel is incredibly melodramatic.
I think you misspelled demonic.
That too.
Melodemonic? 😛
Consciously so, though. Joyce is a very melodramatic person.
That’s true. It’s just that Joyce’s face in that last panel cracks me up for some reason.
KHAN!!!
I read this after having somehow missed Part 6 and thought Sal was thanking Joyce for confirming that Danny still loved her.
I thought the bigger one was just a zoom-in of the regular photograph. No, well, never mind, then.
The lumpy marshmallow shines with its absence.
This drawing style seems a bit more…I dunno, complex? Detailed? Like adding in all the details instead of just the necessary ones. Or maybe just different.
Ex-girlfriend who dumped you coming crawling back against current would-be girlfriend who is a little to unhinged to take seriously. This somehow seems more interesting than anything going on in Dumbing right now, though I suppose Dumbing maintains some slight advantage for not having a character that believes they are in a relationship despite protests to the contrary from the other person.
You’d think Joyce would have remembered the image of her nemesis sooner.
She must be destroyed
Right back when she an greater pyscho path than she will be in the future.
She’s really psychotic, not psychopathic. They’re very different.
