Answer batch #1

You guys asked questions, here are my answers:

Will reply to any questions asked underneath this post in the next news post! keep em coming.

Is the aristocrat related in any way to this old man Noah & co. are about to lure?

-> On some deep biological level all humans are related.

Will "the magic girl" eventually realize her error of vastly underestimating Burk's great physical prowess?

-> The real question is, will she admit it once she does?

Do pigs actually fly?

-> At least one.

How in fact did Malhart Piccarto graffiti entire buildings anyway? Is he a giant who can reach the top story without issue?

-> Well *he* isn't a giant.

Will Ciel ever find love?

-> Only if it functionally increases Noah's chances of survival.

When will Burk's glorious plan from his first ever crayon drawings ever be completed? Has he inspired the aristocrat to do the same?

-> You're keen to observe the plan was left incomplete, what happened to step 5?

And yes.

If the other old man was nice to Tobi after she fixed up his stuff, and this new old man cares for magical undesirables, would it be false to assume that all old men in this comic are inherently altruistic and nice?

-> Is the Judge nice too?

How likely is Burk to lose his pants in this upcoming arc?

-> 1.

Side note: I kind of want Noah to interact with Tuvi from Will Save World for Gold. I think their polar-opposite personalities will be of great fun and amusement.

-> Write fanfiction.

1. Are any of the characters from early Tobi's story entirely nonsentient 'NPC' types?

-> Yes but I won't specify how far I'm stretching the definition of 'character' for this answer.

2. Was what turned those pigs into giant monster pigs Free Magic xor a Pandemonium Power?

-> Depends on who turned them that way.

3. Is the Joy Cult coming back, xor was their inclusion mostly a nod to the original version of the comic where they were planned to come back?

-> My plans for them haven't changed from aptGG

Question about he comic: how and why did you decide to run THREE parallel stories at once, rather than focus on one of them? It's very clear that each storyline has loads of material to be an independent comic, and yet you've chosen the juggle all three - which is REALLY amazing.

-> The stories are all actually connected, so it'd make no sense to just do one without the others.

If I did a single-character comic it'd be someone entirely new.

Are there any LGBTQ characters aside from Tom that we've seen so far?

-> There's multiple representatives from all across the LGBTQ+ spectrum spread across the comic & future buffer. I'd wager at least three of them can be inferred from remarks or behavior within the comic.

How many 5 are Burk?

-> 1.
Can Picasso?

-> Piccarto?

Tobi.

-> Soon.

15920: FelixNemis - Saturday, January 27 2018 - 8:13 PM

did you take inspiration from anything specific when created Ciel?

15921: Frustrated - Saturday, January 27 2018 - 9:39 PM

On a scale from 1 to Q, What color does Burk smell like?

15922: re_cur - Sunday, January 28 2018 - 5:42 AM

Ah, ok. Thanks a bunch for the link though :)

15924: Whispers of Sorrow - Sunday, January 28 2018 - 8:10 AM

How old is Noah? And how old are the other sprogs from his saga?

15932: Anonymous Person - Monday, January 29 2018 - 6:13 AM

Noah is ace, I can taste it. And who is Tom again?

15934: adhd - Monday, January 29 2018 - 9:43 AM

Who's going to kill Veda: Burk, Noah or Tobi?

Why does Aristocrat heal people?

How far is Tobi from Clover Coast? How far is Justopea from Clover Coast?

How did the baron catch the Pirate of the Storm?

How far can Ariara fly with her newly aquired gold properties and metal-controlling power? Can she cross the ocean?

15935: adhd - Monday, January 29 2018 - 11:19 AM

What would happen if Noah enters the mind of Three?

Which members of Burk's family will not appear in the comic?

Why do all 3 heroes have 4-letter names?

15937: Z2 - Tuesday, January 30 2018 - 2:51 AM

I feel like saying 'depends on who turned them that way' is kind of cheating in the game of 'warp that question' given that because the powers are as-far-as-we-know exclusive asking whether something was done with pandemonium or free magic is the same as asking as whether it was done BY somebody who uses pandemonium or somebody who uses free magic; but I'll take the confirmation that somebody out there does have a pandemonium power that makes giant pigs.

The other two are fairly useful, thank you for the answers. ;)

15939: Whim - Tuesday, January 30 2018 - 11:29 AM

Out of the first three chapters, which one takes place 'first', in-comic time?

15941: passerby - Tuesday, January 30 2018 - 4:40 PM

Good one. Or would it be better to ask: how much time passed between each chapter?

Seriously, this one would take a lot of effort, but it's spoiler-free. I'd be really grateful if you clarify that.

15970: ThatGuy - Thursday, February 1 2018 - 2:57 AM

Iā€™d love to ask a question but itā€™s just an obscure reference, I might as well try.

When are you going to get an actual aristocrat in brown clothes?

15971: ThatGuy - Thursday, February 1 2018 - 3:00 AM

@ThatGuy
In a plain brown dress*

15972: ThatGuy - Thursday, February 1 2018 - 3:09 AM

And why was Burk in and then fell from the sky?

16013: Pigscanfly - Tuesday, February 6 2018 - 3:52 AM

Why does Burk draw with crayons instead of writing to convey a message?

16112: bored - Sunday, February 11 2018 - 1:47 PM

How often are you going to answer?

16113: Neoriceisgood - Sunday, February 11 2018 - 3:10 PM

@Bored

Will probably answer tomorrow!

16122: ChonWaen - Monday, February 12 2018 - 3:59 AM

Awesome comic, just power read everything so far in about 3-4 days.
Like a good book, I haven't been able to put it down for long...

Do you have the entire script written for the story and are making the illustrations as you go? Or, are you creating both, chapter by chapter, based off of an outline?
