WARNING: ARTIST RANT AHEAD! So, I’m annoyed by this page, because I made a pretty poor choice and didn’t realize it until it was too late to start over. Jenna’s “Here’s what we do” speech shouldn’t be a single wad of text in one balloon. This page should have been one of those things where the middle is a big white void full of text and little doodles. That way, we could actually SEE this Dr. Kroganon and his “globe things” and whatever the heck an Icesmith is. You know, since comics are supposed to have PICTURES instead of just words.

Then again, it’s not like any of that stuff is what this page is actually ABOUT. That whole spiel is really to give Augusta a reason to praise Jenna, thus proving that it isn’t only Megaweapon she fawns over. Heck, in the rough draft, I didn’t even try to come up with dialog for that speech bubble. I just penciled in “Jenna solves everything” really big to fill in the space.

Anyway, I DO like seeing what Jenna’s like when she ISN’T being a total doormat. We’ve already seen that she likes helping people, but now we know she’s actually super competent at it!

OH! And lest I forget, New Voting Incentive!

(Historical Notes: It was well argued in the old comments that my complains about this page are, at best, an over-reaction.  A lot of this nonsense is actually better off NOT being shown, since it leaves it up to the reader’s imagination to come up with what a Wikimancer actually looks like, and so on.  I do still thing we should have seen SOMETHING other than people just standing around and talking, though.  Like, an imaginary glimpse of Jenna standing next to an impossibly huge, weirdly bulging tarp; something that’d still make SOME kind of visual impact, but would still leave the specifics up to the reader’s demented imagination.)
