I did say that I was going to talk about the fact the black dog called Jahla wolf, something that has become consistent ever since this author decided that there would be a war between the mainland dogs and the akiulfr across the sea. Before that it is a word that had never been used…

Before we continue with the final boss fight, I want to say something about Rogio, and how much he’s bothering me as a character, more so than any other character to be completely honest. At the start of the story we saw him informing Arenak that the pups and the other female, Alva’s sister, had…

I believe last entry showed how, the bigger this monster gets, the bigger the inconsistencies. The first time we learned of Rogio’s story we were told Ranach had found him laying on a pool of his own blood, and that was fine. We didn’t know what had happened, but it was ok because we would…

Another pretty consistent and important issue in this comic is how characters never take responsibility for their actions. They can do whatever they want, as they’ll always have the thousand and one excuses to avoid taking responsibility. The biggest offender right now is Kargo, as it is the most recent, but it’s not the only…

Today, before we start, I want to talk about something I feel very strongly about, and that is non-human animals and the way humans think about them. A few days ago and article came up in the newspaper about a man who was seen abusing a dog. He had shot her kneecaps, destroying them, hit…

I confess the last couple of pages left me completely drained. A part of me wants to hold onto the conflict, I want to see it being fully developed throughout the pages because that is what should be done, from a technical point of view. Kargo’s aggression needs to be addressed, and it needs to…

I know it's been a while since I posted the last entry, but things have been quiet crazy for the past several weeks which basically meant I was unable to use this computer. Now that they're finally finished, I hope I can resume my weekly schedule. That said, I hope you enjoy the spitefic I…

Today I want to start talking about character sheets, as it is something we talked about in previous pages, and something I consider to be very relevant when developing a character. Naturally, this is something you can elaborate by yourself, but it helps to get some cues from other writers to see how they go…

Sorry about the way I ended the previous page, but I just couldn’t bear it any more. The whole Jahla story is pissing me off so much because it’s the perfect example of how to take a normal, somewhat interesting premise, and ruin it. I talked about Dragon Age Origins, but Avatar The Last Airbender…

I didn’t summarize everything that was wrong with Oathbringer in my previous entry, but I thought the introduction was already long enough, so I decided to simply cut it because, you see, most of the time less is more. I know I am guilty myself of writing some impressively long books, my last one being…
