Buying the Stairway to Heaven online
Just a quick post to let you know I have finally (FINALLY) gotten around to re-uploading Buying the Stairway to Heaven which, like all the other pages, went offline following the site crash of 2019.
Long time readers will be familiar with this short crossover story, which originally ran in 2009 (yes, hard to believe). The story teams up Cadet Rochelle Kwan and Al Schroeder’s Mindmistress – with the story written between us from an idea by Al, and drawn by me. Both Rochelle and Mindmistress are the brainiest people in their respective comics, although MM surpasses Rochelle and visits the MagellanVerse as an “adjunct trainer” for Rochelle. In this instance, she brings along an uninvited hitchhiker!
I really enjoyed rereading this story – apologies to you all (and especially to Al!) for having it down for so long. (And yes, next I have to restore Gifford’s story.)
Hope you enjoy either rereading or reading for the first time Buying the Stairway to Heaven!
Yay! š Now for Gifford!
Hurrah! Great news! Thanks, Grace.
Next Gifford, then Fan Art, Fan Fiction, and Magellan Miscellany, and then the world! Mwahaha!
HOORAY!!! Mindmistress was actually my first foray EVER into webcomics (though damned if I can remember how I even found out about it in the first place…) and is directly responsible for me finding Magellan all those years ago, so this story holds a special place in my heart.
I don’t know which was my first, but it was near the beginning. I think I knew of Magellan first, though. Mindmistress, I think, I found out about when the Crossoverlord was going. Sad to see most of the comics from that crossover are done now, whether ended or seemingly abandoned.
When the heck is Dasien going to update again, by the way? Neil was soliciting his swimsuit issue last year, and still nothing. Hope what’s been cutting into his drawing time hasn’t been too stressful.
the Mindmistress comics are still up there, though the artist no longer updates the site. It’s a good story, and this is a good tribute to it. Thank you for bringing it back, I’ve missed it
Wow, I’m glad I had a chance to re-read this nice story.
The scene where Rochelle speaks about the Buddha has always stuck with me, even from the first reading.
Congratulations on restoring more stuff. After re-reading this I went to have another run through Crossoverkill, are some of the pages from there also affected from the same issue that messed up Magellan?
Thanks! Crossoverkill didn’t have any trouble from that time split, that we know of!! Crossoverkill did of course have its own impact on Magellan with Hoodoo becoming a mommy!
