Welcome, everyone, to the new 910CMX Community Forums. I'm still working on getting them running, so things may change. If you're a 910 Comic creator and need your forum recreated, let me know and I'll get on it right away. I'll do my best to make this new place as fun as the last one!

https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-050 That's a lot of character tags for a strip where relatively little happens. Anyway, I should probably say something meaningful about the comic. I know! "Yay for starburst background & foreground in panel six!" There, perfect.

https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/doubledate-009 Space for kinda-sorta spoilers: I guess Diane isn't the only one with self-image problems. At least Lucy cares about what Rhoda and Catalina think; early on she gave off the impression she didn't like Rhoda (but then, early on Diane seemed like a pretty nasty person herself). I find it amusing that everyone thinks of Catalina as Rhoda's cat. That said, while she does have many cat-like traits, the way she lets Rhoda be the more dominant one in the relationship isn't very cat-like.
-
Early on, yes (in as much as a fictional character, and in particular a fictional character that isn't a murderer or something, can). Though I think that had more to do with bad experiences with my peers back when I was in school than with being a cat.
-
It can be both (particularly when we're talking about the old negative nerd stereotypes), and in this case I think it was supposed to be another "nerd" detail rather than a hint Diane thinks of herself as poor (though I suppose Susan's family does have more money than Diane's).
-
I don't think so. For one thing the "dorky nerd" look she imagined really doesn't look very good. Secondly, while some minor modifications (such as no tape on the glasses) could make it look good, it still wouldn't suit her personality.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-047 She's finally here! Woo!
-
Yay for bubbly background in panel three! Meow for paw-mittens! ...I strongly suspect Rhoda and Catalina will soon be doing some heavy cuddling at the very least, and if we cut away to another scene and there is no evidence to the contrary, I'm going to assume that they get up to more than just cuddling.

https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-045 Space for spoilers: So, it turns out my first thought about Grace's reaction was correct. Luckily, Grace was wrong. I love Jay's reaction, and it's neat that it gave Susan and Jay something to bond over. I was actually pretty suspicious of Jay when she first started showing up, but now thanks to this page I like her; hopefully she doesn't wind up an antagonist in the future!

The only sports or other non-video games I've played are ones that I had to in school and ones that my family played together at some point; bowling is neither. I have seen it enough on TV to get a basic idea how it's played, though. (For that matter, I have played a few bowling mini-games in various video games, though that's obviously not the same as playing it IRL.) EDIT: It occurs to me that I made it sound like video games are the only thing I've ever been interested in playing, which isn't the case (in fact, I wasn't even able to play video games regularly until I was 6 or 7, when we got a NES). As a kid I played with toys, and played pretend, and I played simple games like Tag or Hide and Seek with my cousins. And I've enjoyed playing cards or board-games with various family members over the years. But bowling just isn't something anybody I know in person does.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/doubledate-002 Space for spoilers (though it's really just a joke I'm spoiling)... There are many things that growing claws can help with, but I agree that bowling probably isn't one of them. Then again, I've never been bowling, so I can't say for sure.
-
So my first thought when I saw the final panel was that Grace thought Susan had accidentally deadnamed Jay. However, it's more likely she remembers "Jack" thanks to her dream journal, and just never connected the name to Jay. I do wonder however what Jay will think of being called Jack (particularly as she doesn't remember telling Susan that name).
-
I just heard that Akira Toriyama died last Friday, at the age of 68. For those who don't know, he was a manga writer/artist who created several popular series -- most notably Dragonball (which I was a big fan of back in the early 00s). He was also character designer for a number of video games including the Dragon Quest (AKA Dragon Warrior) series, and my favorite game, Chrono Trigger.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-038 I wasn't sure whether to include a tag for Steve, as he's a new character and we already have a few other "Steve"s in the comic. (I guess Dan likes the name.) My prediction for who we'll see in the next comic: Sarah. While I'm sure she doesn't come to every tournament, it would be a bit disappointing not to have her in this tournament when Hope went through all the effort to meet up with her again.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/fox-069 I wonder if the comic will ever advance far enough for us to see the future Tedd mentions in this strip? It certainly could lead to some fun stories!
-
https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/fox-068 Everybody should have cat ears. Well, except bunnies; the long ears are a distinctive part of their look and are cute (but cat ears are still cooler).
-
They hear you just fine, it's just that most cats can't be bothered to learn non-feline languages.
-
The funny thing about Jay thinking Grace's extremely cheerful personality is an act is that it actually is some of the time - just not usually.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-034 I think Grace is the sort who thinks of anybody she knows and who isn't mean to her a friend. Meanwhile, Hope knows things about a stranger, which must be a disorientating feeling.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/fox-066 I believe I will enjoy the consequences of this conversation. Also, it's not a background, but yay for power-up effect that is probably just artistic license in panel two!

https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/fox-064 Hopefully the pony doesn't eat all the pizza and candy.

Comic Wednesday February 21, 2024
ChronosCat replied to Pharaoh RutinTutin's topic in Comic Discussion
I believe Adrian only took Noah under his wing fairly recently (from an in-world perspective) and adopted him more recently still. Furthermore, I don't think Pandora visited her son very often, so she probably never got the chance to get to know Noah. Pandora also had a tendency to get fixated on a single goal / idea / etc. and ignore everything else. So chances are she rarely even remembered Noah existed, and when she did thought of him more as "some kid staying with Adrian" rather than as family (not out of prejudice but because she wasn't paying enough attention to know better). -
https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/fox-063 Yes, Ashley. Yes it does.
-
Nah; like Jet Jaguar and Zone Fighter, I'm only gigantic when I need to be.
-
https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-031 I usually wouldn't bother, but I feel like I ought to say something about the comic rather than just posting the link to it, so: Yay for starburst background in panel two!
-
https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-030 Space for low-key spoilers: Tedd and Grace are looking quite cute today. As I said on Tumblr: I love how Tedd and Grace's new-ish hair styles are both androgynous (in fact I might even call Tedd's feminine-leaning and Grace's borderline-masculine, though they both look great with their current bodies regardless). Combined with their similar outfits and matching pendants, the two look like quite the matched set!
