Page Three. You finally get some dialogue! Don’t worry, there are whole pages of yammering coming up. We’re just taking some time setting the stage, literally.
Nic really gets sci-fi noir. In fact, I would say this week’s music pairing would have to be some moody Vangelis. You can almost hear the flickering buzz of the neon signs as the rain falls in the background.
I wrote in a little ‘shout out’ here to a great Chicago institution, Medusa’s on Sheffield. I have fond memories of that club and it was the place to go (until you turned 21).
In other news, Vikki Grimm is on Twitter now. She’ll be posting updates and SG news, along with some exclusive info and concept art. Maybe even some lyrics.
I always will prefer an online comic that updates every friday than one that posts 15 strips at once and then dissapear for entire weeks!
keep it up guys!
cheers

I could not agree more, redgobbo
I perfer quality over quantity when it comes for the art and story.
About the update: The colors and details are magnificent, but there is some sort of clumsiness between the panels. I can’t quite put my finger on to it, but the flow, the speed feels bit off.
Maybe it’s just me, though. It’s a great page nevertheless and it’s pretty clear what’s happening in it. Great work Dave & Nic
At first I thought that rain falling inside a dome habitat was wierd, but it actually makes a gross kind of sense – it’s condensation from breathing, sweating people precipitating back to the ground. Which only adds to the nastiness.
I’d reconsider the little puffs of dust though – the first panel reads to me (visually) as though she’s dodging gunfire. But a really engaging beginning so far – I’ll keep following for sure!

Haha, Vanglies, nice choice. Put in some Jon Anderson and you’ve got a friend from Cairo. LOL.
I just found your web comic and I am enjoyinh it, btw I remeber Medusa’s it was a cool club, but what about Exit, Club 950 or Tuts?
