True stories are always the best. The same thing happened to my mother when she was a girl. With two obvious exceptions: She didn’t go home to watch Invader Zim (re-runs) but another TV series, and she didn’t carry a camera to make photos.
- Sandra: Ohmygawd, ohmygawd! A UFO!
- Sandra: Invader Zim begins in five minutes?! Whew, I better hurry up!

I always look forward to your comics, whether its the expressions or the general look of your characters I am not sure exactly. It makes me feel joyful, and nostalgic? I’m not sure I can not really describe the way I feel, but I really like the way you draw.

“I’m not sure I can really describe the way I feel, but I really like the way you draw.” Is what I meant, there appears to be no edit button sorry for the double post.

Gets boring if it does not goes away does it? :s
Nice job with the little changes in the background, shows us how long it took XD
@ gabrielsthoughts: Please check your e-mails. I’ve written you about it some days ago.
Powree had the idea with the moving clouds to illustrate the passage of time. She is often adding nice detail like this to the comics which were not present in the initial script.

What is it with UFO’s? Either they’re zipping about, all over the place or they just stand still. Either time freezes and events happen really fast or things just linger? Like the ones at the Mexico air shows. They just linger about, watching all the jets do crazy stunts, each year.

So I heard you like Invader Zim? I pissed off an alien once,it was a glowing orb above a church and I flipped it off,and then it changed colors and started moving through the woods towards my apartment.Fun times.

Somebody’s teasing Sandra with a lamp reflector and monofilament fishing line. Yeahh, that’s it. Gotta be.
Saw a meteor with a greenish corkscrew tail one night. Awesome.

One night while coming home from work, I saw a bright, green light in the super dark sky. It was descending towards the ground. The area is kind of vacant of housing and is nearly dry, mountainous landscape. No idea what it was. Would have called it a flare, except it seemed bigger.
As for aliens, I’d like to think that they have tourist types, too. Makes that Mexico air show seem rather interesting. To think, something from beyond Earth traveled an unknown amount of distance to see Earth aircraft doing stunts. Kind of gives something familiar to bond with.

Novil: Your hidden link in the comic description seems to be broken…
I’ve tested the link on my computer and with a proxy and it seems to work…

well now that I’ve colored a page I’m kinda disappointed with how poorly the minor details carried over… it took me two and a half ours to color… Sandra doesn’t look gdas ablond and I trued a dozen different jacket color combinations before just giving up and settling on orange and gray changed the jeans from gray to blue and of couse the background is pink,
