Episode End (But Not Storyline End)- At egscomicsCommentaryI was basically Susan in this storyline, as I've probably commented on before?Point is, I was simultaneously "gatekeeping BULLCARP", and "I find it so weird that these people who are told they're terrible every other epis...

The Ultimate, But Technically Irrelevant, Punishment- At egscomicsCommentaryBehold their acting talent in that last panel.It is to make one weep.Naturally, this is roughly the end of their episode, so this storyline is about to abruptly end, and what do you mean there's at least a week left

Yeah, They're Fans, I GUESS- At egscomicsCommentaryOne of the reasons I wanted to do this storyline was because I hate the whole gatekeeping "real fan" thing, but I've also felt that "THE THING I LIKE IS UNDER ATTACK!" feeling, and that "but that person is so contrary to ...

ClarityAt egscomicsCommentaryThis is one of the points I pretty much always want to make when I find the opportunity, and woo, an opportunity!I've witnessed way too many arguments that went nowhere because they didn't do this, up to and including arguments in which they actually AGREED with ...
Beefy Tedd
All this was supposed to be was "experimenting beefier-than-Elliot Tedd who's not any taller than normal".In fact, I chose it because I figured "one person? Easy!"But then I thought about it, and realized Tedd's height, which was specified as part of a poll, wouldn't be c...

What a fan needsAt egscomicsCommentaryThere is a point to be made about how they just tacked on their own little subjective house rule to the definition as read.Fortunately, there's a comic planned for after this one! HUZZAH!I mean, yeesh, there better be. Susan went on for so long that I didn&#...

Words, words, and more words.At egscomicsCommentaryEDIT: The definition of "devotee" is a bit off, given that she means a person who has those traits. Panel space is limited, however, and I hope it works in context.--I didn't start this storyline with a conclusion in mind, nor did I look...

Natural assumptionsAt egscomicsCommentary"Way to rub it in, Elliot.""What?""What?"Of dictionaries and camera anglesI decided I wanted Susan to grab a physical dictionary from the bookcase that is now canonically on that side of the room. This is a bit of a personal reflection...

Whoops we skipped a stepAt egscomicsCommentaryFor this to make any sense, there has to be an accepted distinction between a "fan" and a "true fan", "real fan", etc. Otherwise, they've already acknowledged they don't know what a "fan" is.My hope is that the las...

CommentaryYou know, I'm not actually sure what anime I'd use as an example. I was GOING to sayFairy Tail, but then I started listing the things I liked about it, and the list was FAR too long to credibly say "I just like how some of the characters look".I guess I'm not as superfi...

Who would even?At egscomicsCommentaryBefore anyone materializes to nitpick, I'm sure there are people who can find a way to profit off of oil spills. Such would not occur to Elliot, however, SO THERE.Also, limited panel space to make a joke about it.Side note: It's been a while since I watch...
For Reals - 06 - HD
No, Really, We're Not Sure.At egscomicsCommentaryI do not believe this comic NEEDS a punchline. Elliot provided a bit of fun as-is before the third panel.The reason there isn't one, however, is because I wrote WAY too much for this comic (past me, what were you doing?!), and what would have ...

Partner in RantingAt egscomicsCommentaryThe most unrealistic thing about is EGS is people using their phones as actual phones.And yes, the weighted turtle shells are a thing in Dragon Ball, as is weighted clothing in general. Pretty sure most of the weighted clothing training in that anime would be ...

Somewhere to Talk About ItAt egscomicsCommentary"Oh yeah, I have somewhere I can say this" has been the motivation for many a things I have written.There are many reasons someone might enjoy a story, so it's not necessarily THAT strange if they don't care about the morals of a story ...

For Reals!At egscomicsCommentaryKIRRRRRRK!Panel one refers to Captain Kirk from Star Trek, and also references someone's assessment of Kirk from Star Trek 2, Wrath of Khan. It has also been argued that the pop culture image of Kirk (which was basically the template used in the 2009 Star Trek) pu...

Watching a showAt egscomicsCommentaryUnless I suddenly get really inspired, Sarah giving that look is probably the note I'm ending this slice-of-life, probably canon storyline on.Granted, I could get inspired. I am REALLY tired as I write this. Who knows what twists and turns there may be in my ...
Next EGSNP Saturday
I know roughly what I want to happen next, but I'm having a lot of trouble with it, too, and I'm just drawing a total blank on it today.

Heavy blanket!At egscomicsCommentaryWriting for something that allows swearing (for starters) when one's used to being restricted probably feels similar to someone living on their own for the first time. "I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT! WOO"A few years later, looking back on it is embarrassing...

ComprehensionAt egscomicsCommentarySadly, Grace originally said "there's too much rampant attraction AFOOT", but the panel space was not kind to that many words.Susan, of course, does not like to be touched. She actually does want to be more okay with the idea of physical contact with he...

Obviously yesAt egscomicsCommentaryI'd say it's a bit strange that I'm writing this, as I generally don't like being touched.At the same time, I have sat closely with friends without dating before, and it's been good.So maybe it's not so weird.This commentary is brought to yo...

Helpful Grace!- At egscomicsCommentary- Canon(From Summer Moments)Panel one was something of a happy accident. In the previous comic, Grace wound up moving away from Sarah. This was mostly to keep her from being covered in dialogue balloons.For the last panel of THIS comic, however, I knew I wanted ...
