For some reason I'm suddenly in the mood for icecream... Softscoop > Whippy.

What I like about this chapter thus far is there's been quite a lot of variety in the things to draw in the background. I got a second chance at drawing automatic doors on this page- This time I had the genius idea to actually give the doors somewhere to GO when they retract. Not just smash their way through a brick wall.

See y'all soon.

Named? Is George going to learn Atty's real name soon?

Reply ReaperofttheNight, 27 Jan 2012 05:56 pm

Someone has a crush... Awww, George is so cute.
I love all the cross-hatching on this page.

H0ly. Do not make George and Atty a couple. Ever. Just keep George as Atty's... annoyer.

NOT THE ICE CREAM! Wow, George really needs to be punched in the face. jk.

@nisakuraimichi: This is traditional, yes. I use regular printer paper. It's pretty hard to draw a full page, yes, but after so many you tend to get used to it, and yeah I use the whole page. =)

HOW COULD SHE DROP THE ICE CREAM?!?!
I really wish i lived there, Me and George on Pokemon adventures! :D

Couple curious things (A) Why does he have a black eye? Did I miss something, I know it was noticed before in the last comic, but I don't know if it was explained. Why the black eye? She hit him?

(B) Wild Date appeared.
Atticus used "Aloof".
Wild Date got away.

Back to crushing George's hopes. I like it.

Reply darkauras, 27 Jan 2012 09:30 pm

@Chaos Sorceror Davidicus: Atty got a black eye after George dragged him into a random house. Remember the two tough looking guys on the last page? Apparently they don't like random intrusions so much.

Reply Shadowpie, 27 Jan 2012 09:46 pm

Aww, George threw away the icecream once she realised it wasn't a date :D

good luck with leaving atty, we ALL know what happens when you try to leave Pewter without a gym badge.

Reply Missinko009 (Guest), 27 Jan 2012 10:00 pm

Fandom All I could think about during the last panel is: KISS KISS KISS KISS!!!

I have a feeling that George (short for Georgia maybe? IDK odd name lol) Wants to "thank" Brent for rescuing her.

I could not help but sense something in George's phrasing that smells DISAPPOINTMENT.

Reply RazorD9, 27 Jan 2012 11:39 pm

Ah jeez. Striking out with the ladies, even when you're not even trying and are being dragged against your will.

Reply NuzlockingMagma, 27 Jan 2012 11:40 pm

I heard some people you can't leave Pewter. Obviously, George knows of 'The Glitch' you can do in Red to skip that guy and move on without the Pewter Badge. It works in Yellow as well, I tried it! ...Although it makes Pikachu glitch all to hell.

Reply FrostedWaffle, 28 Jan 2012 12:25 am

The ice cream didn't have to suffer! How could this happen?!

Reply Lethologica (Guest), 28 Jan 2012 01:18 am

George has this really obnoxious sense of entitlement about Atticus. He saved her life and he doesn't owe her anything, least of all indulging her in her un-asked-for tourist rambles. Gah! I like the girl from Viridian with the smashed-nose-grandpa better than her; I wonder if she'll ever reappear...

Reply Zitronenbaum, 28 Jan 2012 02:28 am

George! <3

... if I was a hardcore shipper, I would totally ship them. But I don't ship anyone, lol.

Yup George fancies him.

Reply Drewbie (Guest), 28 Jan 2012 05:54 am

Leaving Pewter The punk kid can be bypassed, but I'm betting the Gym Leader is going to take a shot at Atticus' lazy training methods and find out how badass Dragonthing is...I also think Mask Man is Gary Oak, Gary is MIA and believed dead, Ash is confirmed dead.

Reply Lady Darkrina, 28 Jan 2012 07:43 am

Go Atty, you rock!^^ as for George, she probably has some secret crush on him that's why she's cursing him and hoping he doesn't have a date xD, as if Atty would want one anyways he's not the type of person to just go and get a girlfriend in the first place lol.

Reply Andromeda Lazuli, 28 Jan 2012 08:05 am

I can't believe she actually said that! XD

Reply Dalek555, 28 Jan 2012 10:21 am

At first I thought the ice cream in the last panel was a geodude watching them from under a traffic cone... Then I figured out that George is the kind of person who drops ice cream.

Reply wo_chi_baozi, 28 Jan 2012 12:41 pm

This made me sad :(

Reply RinseAndRepeat, 28 Jan 2012 12:45 pm

Dang it, Atticus! You got George all upset!

Shippers: I couldn't really ship them unless Atty and/or George's personalities were a little different...

I think Atticus being in a relationship at this point in the comic would make things really awkward > 3<

Reply Yangyexin, 28 Jan 2012 01:17 pm

...Hasn't anyone ever heard of friends anymore? xD

But in all seriousness, I would have been deeply disturbed by that ice cream's cruel demise.

I guess they left that to speculation. Fair enough I suppose. I guess I'm just used to people actually SHOWING the action happening, especially when a physical alteration has been made.

MMORPG rule #1, Pics or it never happened.

Reply flames (Guest), 29 Jan 2012 02:34 am

Doesn't look like icecream The panel with the dropped ice cream looked like a sad face with a cone hat staring at George and Atty.

At least go for a trashcan. Talk about lazy.

Reply Treason, 30 Jan 2012 04:57 am

Huh, this reminds me of that part from Syndicate Wars where everyone has a mind control implant that lets them see the world as a wholesome smiling suburb when in reality it is a blade runneresque post corporate takeover cyberpunk city. Has Atty been neglecting to come in for routine maintenance?

You think Atty is being dishonest? @Kyle Moses: What's George's full name?

Reply Asj, 30 Jan 2012 07:57 pm

Aww, she seems pretty upset, since she just through the icecream down like that. Seems symbolic.
Although... ever since reading the alt text, I can't make up my mind about if that really is an icecream cone, or if a gnome just popped up from a manhole.

Oh, by the way, nice idea about the doors. I probably wouldn't have thought of that...
Where did you draw them before?

Reply Crystal_Styxx, 11 Apr 2012 09:32 pm

I've heard a couple of George hater comments and I dont know why, seriously she is great maybe she's annoying to Atty but everybody needs that friend who will m ake you smile or have fun...Even if by force >:D
