Magellan

It took me a lot longer than I expected, but I’ve finally finished off the colour work on page 6.297… you can see it in all its glory here (you might have to hit reload if you visited recently and/or are still seeing the old page).

For all the work that’s gone into (at least 20 hours, at a modest estimate) I’m not all that happy with it, mainly because there is so much detail in the last panel that it really gets lost when seen at the normal website viewing resolution. But I do like the page and it would be a shame for all that work to “go to waste” – so here’s a detail of the last panel at actual size – click here!

Let me know what you think!! 🙂

Now that The Olaf Mystery has come to an end, I’ve gathered the cover and all 13 pages in one place for you to read.

Thank you if you were one of the hundreds of people who voted for Magellan over the past 14 weeks. Your vote really helped to bump Magellan up the list of Top Webcomics – for much of the time Magellan was in the top 40-60 comics… a very awesome achievement.

And many thanks to VileTerror for coming up with this great story and working with me on its production! I had fun creating it and hope you did reading it!

That’s it for the voting incentives for the moment… but I am currently working on a new story called The Streaker Synergy… featuring a certain speedster or two or twenty. I’m hoping to debut it in early February 2017.

In the meantime, read the collected The Olaf Mystery… here!

Annnnd The Olaf Mystery comes to an end… page 13!

To read (along with the last 12 pages), simply vote for Magellan via Top Web Comics.

I’d like to thank VileTerror very much for coming up with this engrossing little story, and for being cool enough with me adding my own spin in certain parts! I had fun working on it and hope you did reading it!

And so we come tot he end of this short story, and like most short stories, it raises more questions than it answers. Is this the END end? I can’t say for now, but VileTerror has certainly sown the seeds for future revelations around Olaf-of-the-large-cranium.

And a word from VileTerror (SPOILERS AHEAD!):  nd there we have it.  Olaf (and the little undead mouse minion) seem unimpressed with the “paranoid ramblings” of Yasmeen.

Not so unimpressed as to actually retaliate, or even bring this to the attention of any of the faculty.  Just unimpressed enough to throw the journal in the trash and move on with “his life.” *

Or maybe Olaf’s just biding time . . . until . . . something! Maybe revenge has already been taken, and Yasmeen doesn’t even realize it!

I hope that you have all enjoyed this short story, and that you are all now cooking up exciting stories for other delta- or epsilon-class characters!  Let’s throw the Master Assassin off his path to realize that Kaycee’s the Alpha character by making a bunch of
other background characters more interesting than they were before!

(Just go easy on Grace.  It might be better to give your ideas the full illustrative treatment and offer them as fanart.)

*NOTE:  Neither “his” nor “life” are technically accurate in this context.
