What has he seeeen.

Trying to increase my work rate. Got this done a bit ago, and am inking the next page now. I know quantities not everything but I'm trying to get some buffer pages done, so that when my work piles in the updates shouldn't be delayed.

The third panel probably won't make too much sense to people who can't remember the games well, and the second panel probably won't make much sense to... anyone, really, but it's cool cuz it will later.

And a couple of things to direct you to. I finally got meself a fanart page put up. Also, Pockymouse asked if I might be available for an interview and I was only too happy to oblige =) You can read it here. http://pockymouse.com/2010/02/04/interview-the-face-behind-mokepon/

See y'all soon.

H0lyhandgrenade, 09 Feb 2010 07:03 am

Uh... If I take a while to get to replies.... Figure it must be because I'm working so dern hard on the next page. Yup.

Leviathan: Well I wouldn't like to make these things too easy ;3

RyoSoulreaper: Haha I'm glad the walk sequence came out as being long, it took me some while to try figure how to give the illusion of a long walk on a single page...

Czar Squid: I love suspense 8D tune in next week to see!

GreenNin93: That could be ;3 All that way for naught.

Jazeki: Really? Peculiar... Interesting... That's my least favourite panel. Hmmhmmhmm.

Seav: My answer here- He doesn't.

speechclassdropout: Makes me happy people remember these bizarre references XD

Mamo: There's a lesson to be learnt here... But the pupil isn't willing.

AllaBreve: First one in to say that. I reveal nothing.

ApaFox: Dragonthing is a coming ;3 I suppose Atty just presumes he will.

Waiting For Your Whistle: Those are some pretty good guesses we shall see ;3 And I don't think he eats all of them, just enough for it to murder his tongue.

Cqclegoman: I have nothing to say on the matter 8D I get the feeling a lot of my replies on this page are gunna be pretty samey...

supersayainblue: Q and A. What with it being an interview.

Aeris: Well spotted. Pretty simple when you don't look too far in huh.

DarkenCheChan: I don't actually recall... Did they do that in Stadium? My memories failing me.

Bringer_of_light: Mmm. Delicious dream. Thanks x3

Mr Aids: Gutted. Absolutely gutted. If so he'll likely turn round and jump off the ledge head first.

AnifeR2: *writes it down* Any more bets, anyone?

Ichipowa: Maybe 8D Funny.

FanFantasy: Kukuku who am I to say ;D (Okay I'm even annoying myself with these replies now.)

BK_1/VGKid: He's more accustomed to sitting on his ass all day ;3 And yo, all readers are GOOD readers.

speak92: And teach it to... Nothing!

sparklytea: Makes me feel hungry just thinking about it.

Chan is No Longer a Guest: Hahaha XD That's cute. I hope you didn't try explain to her it would have come across as too bizarre...

Cupid: We all know he ent getting to that stadium, huh...

Naya: Uh 8D ... Maybe. Maybe. ... *looks through zelda memories for a mask*

Pride1289: All good guesses...

BaldDumboRat: At which point he'll barf up onto his shoes.

Munkyboywndr: Maybe he is... Depressing. Mokepon's first death scene.

Kaitousblackwings: Haha they were in the later games right XD I remember vaguely... Pretty irksome.

k33nbl4d3: Life is mysterious enough without me drawing this crap too, huh...

Christo556: Could be, could be ;3 I'm looking forward to next page.

Fishuu: Thanks XD It was a weird thing to draw and I'm glad you like, it was the only way I could envision a Drowzee eating a dream... Which means it's most likely completely wrong. That trunks gotta be for somet tho, right.

PainEclipse: It was fun to draw. I'm not so fond of them myself but I like that one if just for the expression I got to do ;3

Pockymouse: Me too XD <3 Honoured you asked.

SuperBiasedMan: That's right m'man ;D I can't wait. It's gunna be tough having more than one comic on the go, but it's just the price I pay. Destiny is calling me. Open up my eager eyes...

FallenEmbyr: I didn't like em but they were pretty badass. And yeah XD It wasn't intentional but it kinda has that look about it. He just needs a walking stick.

Pat15: Aye, he really isn't designed for travelling the world is he.

Kid Garra: Interesting that that first one should be your guess...

Idene: Aha XD I did consider putting Toby in the first one again, but then I decided to just make them randomers. I wish I had made them cameos again. I was told that the girl looks like me though... But I'm pretty sure that's just cuzza her expression.


Kelpy: Thanks ;3 I am happy with that expression.

Subterfuge: That seems to be the majority guess so far, it's pretty safe to presume.

Skwinky: Glad you did XD And I love suspense 8D Only good thing about not being about these pages taking time to upload.

Rainbird: Have a nice trip 8D And it's probably safe to say that it is likely one of your guesses...

AbelPhee: Just one big wall. Gutted.

Kisaki: Atty would be terrified D8 He's only met lil' critters so far.

Loverofpiggies: Haha I've done that exact same thing in the past XD ... Not reading my own comic of course. That would be weird.

Taunta: Eehee XD; ... Reference I can't appreciate what with not being in touch with popular culture but hopefully it'll work for those guys.

xwx101: Yeah I gotta make the most of this attitude while it's with me lol. And interesting that quite a few people are saying snorlax...

Death-Destination: Well remembered about the cover XD I think you're the only one who did.

Yamataro: GO FETCH LASSIE! Or... wasn't it lassie who fetched help... In honesty I've never actually seen that film.

WolfyT: It would be cool to have it in print if only I wouldn't get my ass sued off XD; Bugger.

Asj: You don't think wrong.

My friend: ... Are you drawing that drowzee snorting a dream?
Me: Yep.
My friend: He looks like he's getting high off it.
Me: Yep.

Weird that this kinda thing don't shock him anymore. I've made him immune.

PrincessTomboy: Now that would put a dampener on their valuable friendship XD;

Marly: I wasn't expecting so much drowzee love XD

Thanks for commenting guys!

lol I had to think about panel 3 for a few seconds. Nice reference hehe.

RyoSoulreaper, 06 Feb 2010 03:32 pm

Kid wearing a pokeball mask, a drowzee using dream eater through his nose, and One long walk sequence. This page has everything!

Czar Squid, 06 Feb 2010 03:35 pm

The second panel, what could it mean? A mask possibly, but I like to keep my options open.

Gah, cursed suspense, and leaving us to guess at these things.

GreenNin93, 06 Feb 2010 03:37 pm

Hm Wow this looks really nice, I love the fact that you drew the drowse use dreameater awsome XD also betting on him seeing another sign saying no pokemon XD

Jazeki, 06 Feb 2010 04:02 pm

That was a pretty awesome interview. But, out of all of the awesomeness going on on this page, I have to say I like the first panel the best.

Seav, 06 Feb 2010 04:20 pm

I always wondered how your character travels so much without tiring

speechclassdropout, 06 Feb 2010 04:58 pm

OMG, I remember the dream eater TM! <333

I like the way you illustrated it.

Mamo, 06 Feb 2010 04:59 pm

Smoking is bad for you Atty, no wonder you're so out of breath!

AllaBreve, 06 Feb 2010 05:01 pm

Calling it now, he sees Khan.

ApaFox, 06 Feb 2010 05:11 pm

o0o Wait up for Dragonthing!

xD Love the Drowzee shot.

Waiting For Your Whistle, 06 Feb 2010 05:23 pm

I get the dream eater reference but WTF is up with the masked kid?! lol... either sees the masked kid, sees the 8 other strips of land he has to walk past (btw less cigs and you'd have more breath to go by XD), or more likely his rival <3

*sigh* so he plans on eating all his butts himself? He's gonna be smoking thorugh his pours at that rate ^^U

cqclegoman, 06 Feb 2010 05:27 pm

This is the part where the cop says he can't go in, amirite?

supersayainblue, 06 Feb 2010 05:45 pm

I'm too lazy to check is that site a link to a Q and A or a review of the comic.

Aeris, 06 Feb 2010 06:23 pm

Drowzee eating some guys dream and a kid in a pokemon mask.

DarkenCheChan, 06 Feb 2010 06:25 pm

Is the dream eater ref from the pokemon stadium mini game? (I miss those games so much)

Bringer_of_light, 06 Feb 2010 06:26 pm

NOM NOM NOM DREAMS

excellent again

Mr Aids, 06 Feb 2010 06:46 pm

I bet Atty has seen this sign:

"Victory Road - Only 5 days away! =D"

AnifeR2 (Guest), 06 Feb 2010 07:18 pm

Guess... another pidgey...Right?

Ichipowa, 06 Feb 2010 07:18 pm

._. watch oak be standing there

FanFantasy, 06 Feb 2010 07:28 pm

Oh oh oh, is this the part with the rival battle or is it the part with that annoying dude who says you needs all the badges? :DD

BK_1/VGKid, 06 Feb 2010 07:46 pm

lol ooooh Atty is so out of shape XD lol
lol Fine i'm ok with that XD maybe then i'll get more ppl reading my comics XD lol or maybe they'll dis them guh XD

speak92, 06 Feb 2010 08:41 pm

dreameater wait, go wake that guy up (but you need cut or surf) you can get the TM42: Dream eater!

sparklytea, 06 Feb 2010 09:20 pm

dream eater, yummy

Chan Is No Longer a Guest, 06 Feb 2010 10:08 pm

I know what he sees.
LOL AND I HAD THE EXACT SAME EXPRESSION.
"HI YOU CANT PASS"
"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF"
or
"WE MUST FIGHT"
"FFFF WHYYYY"

OH YEAH LOL I found my like Charmander stuffed toy thing that I forgot I had the other day, and ended up yelling "DRAGONTHING" and confusing the Hell out of my Mom.

Cupid, 06 Feb 2010 11:45 pm

I'm going to guess he has seen a roadblock sign of somesort telling him to go back. XD Nice Drowzee scene. XD

Naya, 06 Feb 2010 11:57 pm

ITZ A ZELDA REFERENCE! ISN'T IT?! *points dramatically at the second panel* D8

ISN'T IT??? 8D

pride1289, 07 Feb 2010 12:08 am

I bet he's going to be at that guy who tells you to go back for all the badges.
Or it's the rival. OR
It's another Ash statue.

BaldDumboRat, 07 Feb 2010 12:35 am

He'll see EVERY trainer there hogging all the pokemanz D:

munkyboywndr, 07 Feb 2010 01:24 am

It's Kaz for sure We know the drill. BUT WHAT IF IT'S A TWIST

Wouldn't that dude with the Drowzee be dying if it's using Dream Eater on him?

Kaitousblackwings (Guest), 07 Feb 2010 02:02 am

3 was easy for me to get, but I have no idea for 2. XDDDD Those little bastard ninja kids who pretend to be pokeballs but then pop up and go HA! BATTLE?!?!?

I hate those little bastards DDD8<

k33nbl4d3, 07 Feb 2010 02:26 am

why has that guy got a pokeball on his face? ah, the mysteries of life

Christo556, 07 Feb 2010 02:28 am

either he's seen something big or he noticed the road is longer than he expected ^^

fishuu, 07 Feb 2010 02:34 am

I wonder if the view is just more stairs on another hill....

I love the little z's between the Drowsy and the trainer ... actually I just love that panel in general <3

PainEclipse, 07 Feb 2010 04:16 am

<3 drowzee :D

Pockymouse (Guest), 07 Feb 2010 04:48 am

Thanks for the interview! Thanks so much for the interview, I really enjoyed it! :)

SuperBiasedMan, 07 Feb 2010 06:37 am

Awesome interview, doing a comic with Gibson? :O
JEALOUSSSSSY...


(turnin saints into the sea...)
Damn Killers lyrics interrupting my comments.

FallenEmbyr, 07 Feb 2010 09:05 am

My brother had a drowzee (or maybe it was a hypno, I can't remember =/ ) that was freaking unstoppable. He always used this combo with Dream Eater that always killed ='[

The pokéball mask is kinda creepy o_O

And I agree with the Where's Waldo comment. After I read that, I went back and looked for Atty in the panels. I found him in every one X3

pat15, 07 Feb 2010 12:45 pm

I'm guessing the bouncer or a sign that says you can't go through without a badge and then he'd have to walk aaaaalllll the way back. Yeah too bad for Atty that he's outta shape and smokes a lot.

Kid Garra, 07 Feb 2010 02:53 pm

I'd say he has seen one of two thing.

1. A Snorlox
2. A ton more stairs...

Idene, 07 Feb 2010 03:03 pm

hmm, Tobi ref in panel 3? And would I be correct in assuming that these are some more of your OCs just making cameos? XD

And aye, like Kid Garra said, I'd wager it'd be a Snorlax too... or maybe Kahn... or maybe... Gary Mother******* Oak. XD theeee... 25 or so year old Gary Oak, starved and crippled... and Atticus will just pass him by... XD i use ... too much methinks. XD

Kelpy, 07 Feb 2010 03:27 pm

I love the expression on that Drowzee's face, seriously. It's totally the awesome face.

Subterfuge, 07 Feb 2010 03:42 pm

Since you're pretty true to the original, I'd say Kahn.

Skwinky, 07 Feb 2010 04:32 pm

SUSPENSE. I love it.

And congrats on the interview! I enjoyed reading it. :"D

Rainbird, 07 Feb 2010 06:49 pm

D: HOW DID I MISS THIS UPDATE AND THE LAST?!

Aww~ DT looks so adorable (on both pages). <3

:O WHAT DOES HE SEE. I"m guessing:
a) Kahn
b) mowed grasses
c) SOMETHING SO HORRIFIC IT CAN NOT BE SAID HERE. D:

Nice page(s), once again! ^^ *wanders off to read the interview*

AbelPhee (Guest), 07 Feb 2010 08:42 pm

Love it!!

My guess - it's a dead end. :3

Kisaki (Guest), 07 Feb 2010 09:36 pm

It's the Mask of...Pokeball! I'm guessing he will find Brock's mighty Onix.

Loverofpiggies, 07 Feb 2010 09:59 pm

Oh this feels unfair. :D I was like "WHAT DOES HE SEE??!!" Press the next button and get sort of confused. I thought it was a new page haha. XD

Taunta, 07 Feb 2010 10:33 pm

In response to the above comments http://echosphere.net/star_trek_insp/insp_khan.jpg

This khan?

xwx101, 07 Feb 2010 11:53 pm

holy crap I love your working hard attitude must really pay off eh. Also my snorelax senses are tingling.

Death-Destination, 08 Feb 2010 06:49 am

Loving it!!!!!!!! <3
Well on the front cover there was someone with that mask on as well so are they a special group (like Team Rocket or something)???
Hehe, you go drowsy!
And there's something round there... First thought was VOLTORB, but they aren't at this part in the game, so... Who knows who knows...

Yamataro, 08 Feb 2010 08:46 am

THE FIELDS A BURNIN'!

Or It's his rival once again...

WolfyT, 08 Feb 2010 06:20 pm

Can't wait for more! I wish I could have something like this in print, it's great!

Asj, 08 Feb 2010 06:57 pm

I thought he saw a lot more walking/climbing up ahead, but other people's said some interesting stuff, so maybe it's something else. ^_^"
Hmm... that Drowzee looks high or something.

PrincesTomboy, 08 Feb 2010 11:58 pm

who want's to guess it's the theif who ook the bulbasaur [AKA the rivel and trainer who actually cares about pokemon] I hope dragonthing accidentally burns his owner in the possibly upcoming battle XD

Marly, 09 Feb 2010 12:51 am

<3
Drowzeeeeee<3

Subterfuge, 09 Feb 2010 09:37 am

Wait... I just realized that someone on the cover page has that same pokeball mask/face/thing :V

And Atty should really stop trying to smoke AND walk up large quantities of stairs

MasterScorpio (Guest), 09 Feb 2010 12:12 pm

rival? I reeeeaaaallllly like your comic so far, pls continue,coz I like the sarcams allot even thought I wouldn't do such thing, but I like laughting allot about those kind of stuff....does that make me a sadic?)

JillyFoo, 09 Feb 2010 12:57 pm

Victory road... that would be a great way to move the plot along. Screw the gym badges and leveling up.

Anyway... super rod to catch a dratini! OOOO

Yamataro, 09 Feb 2010 03:04 pm

Me neither. Thought it twas a silly thing...
