NP Comic for Thursday, Oct 2, 2025 Elliot found the extra Adrian, and Hope immediately folded her ruse.

NP Comic for Tuesday, Sep 30, 2025 Good use of literally, since it is a feature of a story in a comic. However, in the commentary, Dan(a) is wrong; they'd make a pretty good boss if courtesy is offered to employees. It can't be shallow and artificial, that does not work; people smell phonies they work for, and the situation quickly becomes adversarial; but genuine appreciation is itself appreciated. Not to say this works for every employee, there are folks who walk into a situation with immaturity or a bad attitude, and will need to be replaced. Still, you don't want to be the one who pushes employees into that mode.

NP Comic for Thursday, Sep 25, 2025 It's adorable. Please keep it moving.

NP Comic for Saturday, Sep 20, 2025 Tedd and Elliot are enjoying their own dance. "I'm confused." (Not me, the dude in the middle panel)

NP Comic for Thursday, Sep 4, 2025 Hmm. Elliot seems more insightful in this discussion. The whole reason he is out on the balcony is that he is not smooth. Tedd should be perceptive enough to know that. Neither one of them is smooth, thus the lumpy conversation. The commentary scenario is even worse.

NP Comic for Saturday, Aug 30, 2025 I can relate to this comic. I had an incident in my early 20s when I suddenly reconnected with a young woman that I had not seen for months, and never expected to see again. I began moving to hug her, but caught myself; the setting was inappropriate. We never became close again after that. Tedd, you did the right thing, honestly expressing how you really felt. I'd go so far as to say, you nailed down this relationship. Hidden by Tedd's head is a very wide smile on Elliot, in my head canon.

NP Comic for Tuesday, Aug 12, 2025 I did not recognize Rich when he appeared earlier in this arc. Adrian appears to be over thinking this. He's not wrong, but still. Actually, since Elliot is reluctant to find a match, Adrian might want to establish contact with the fairy he suspects is involved, and see if the plan is sound, then maybe support it.

Comic for Thursday, Aug 14, 2025 And again . . .

Comic for Saturday, Jul 26, 2025 Tomorrow, tomorrow; It's only a day away (actually three in this case).

Here. Trying not to think too hard about flightless winged elephants, Also? Finals!

Comic for Thursday, Jul 10, 2025 The Prince is allergic to boobs?

NP Comic for Saturday, Jun 28, 2025 Not much to say, this is more of the same.

NP Comic for Saturday, Jun 21, 2025 Elliot is confused, he says cool name, but imagines hot. Then forgets his own name. (Not really)

NP Comic for Tuesday, Jun 17, 2025 A new update in the CinderTedd Saga that really moves along at a rapid clip and resolves everything. Just kidding. They awkwardky move forward at a snail's pace, accompanied by Tedd's internal angsty monolog.

NP Comic for Saturday, Jun 14, 2025 Elliot wants to talk, just not as The Prince. Interesting . . .

NP Comic for Thursday, Jun 12, 2025 Breathe! Re: Commentary, by this era, the kingdom would have a mint somewhere.

NP Comic for Saturday, Mar 1, 2025 Panel 2: apparently eyes are capable of transforming in this universe. Adrian's have shrunk to pupil size, and Elliot's have become horizontal lines. Definitely fantasy. A royal worried about being out of touch? Would never happen.

NP Comic for Thursday, Feb 6, 2025 If that is Adrian, it does not look quite like Adrian. I wonder why Dan(a) didn't use Gregg as the advisor to the prince? If Cinderella gets with the prince, the kingdom is in trouble. This all seems a bit much for an early version of Cinderella.

Comic for Monday, Dec 30, 2024 Susan is giddy. Is this a good thing? Elliot's in yet another female form, which (s)he may have used before. (S)he and Ashley are out with Liz, talking about magic. 'bout time Liz gets face time. She must be hard to write for, preventing her use. So, even with graduation, they may continue doing reviews. Good plan.

https://www.egscomics.com/comic/hope-076 Another flashback With the next one, I think this story will overtake the Odyssey.

NP Comic for Tuesday, Jan 16, 2024 "Where's the beef?" - 2nd panel, lady. In EGS logic, this kind of makes sense, although I wonder what prompted Tedd's cryptic animal form comment. Ashley is being Ashley.

Comic for Monday, Dec 11, 2023 Panel 1: Dreams look like sugar cookies with star shaped sprinkles. It is raining cookies. I'm not sure if 'Elliot' in panel 2 is Elliot; the hair looks like Elliot, but the figure is wearing a neck tie, which suggests he is not Elliot. Maybe he is Elliot looking for a job near campus, and is dressed for an interview? Speaking of cookies, Rich in panel 4 gets a cookie. However, the text says his being correct is random. It is not. Rich's point of view about anomalies is like a stuck clock, per the saying, "A stopped clock is right twice a day" (twelve hour clock, with no AM/PM indicator; these are common among old school dial clocks.) Rich is correct because the circumstances matched his normal biased canned speech explanation. To be random, he would had to have selected from among alternatives, and then hit the correct explanation. George Carlin did this well. "Tonight's weather will be dark, followed by more dark, with gradual lightening in the morning." Arthur arguing against a rational explanation is odd, but perhaps he has an actual sense that this is anomalous, perhaps something tied to being a seer. However, during the Parable dream, Arthur was not present as the NPC that looked like Arthur; that NPC was dismissed when Mist dismissed the NPCs (and Jay got upset). So (back to panel 1) apparently various dreams were shared by different people, not just the one in the Parable NP arc. If that's true, Mist getting his magic stuck in Jays was a one time thing out of many invasive shared dreams. It seems odd that he only found Rhoda, not Nanase nor Edward. Perhaps, even with many dreams, Mist's overall coverage was weak? If he only connected a few people each time, only for one night, that seems quite possible. A bit of speculation, the griffin side outlaws 'tech' - perhaps they are stuck in a middle ages lifestyle? High death rate during child birth, slower population growth? Maybe Mist has no clue how many people a town in the EGS universe has?

Comic for Friday, Dec 1, 2023 It took a second to see that this was two different events, displaced in time. Clues: Susan is wearing a hair band in the last panels, their positions have switched, Susan's bangs are shorter, Susan's shirt is lighter, they are talking about a different movie. Elliot appears to not have changed. Oddly, still needs pretty much the same haircut, like it hasn't grown. I think the alien invasion is foreshadowing the three from the Griffin side of the EGS world.

Comic for Monday, Dec 4, 2023 "Change? Spare some change?" "Yes. I'll be graduating and will no longer attend high school. My routine will be disrupted." "Thank you." Last comic, Susan spoke of graduation in the recent past. This comic, it is in the near future. Is this a glitch in Dan? Commentary: All gerbils take up space, albeit not as much as we do. Fictitious gerbils in a comic take up very little space, especially when briefly described, not pictured, even with many copies of the comic. Also very little space in Susan's neural circuitry. Russians have launched actual gerbils into actual space. So space gerbils were a real thing, briefly (12 days). They were not recovered. (The US needs up up its game in the gerbil race!) Spelljammer has giant space hamsters (as a means of propulsion) and miniature giant space hamsters (pictured are the sabertooth space hamster and the fire breathing space hamster).
