Another awesome comic! Hooray! Special mention for Squiggly_P for a most fantastic bridge page. It managed to make a really radical shift that fit into the narrative very smoothly. Extra for you!

Aw... my resolution got ugly'd from resizing. Would it be too much to ask to resize and resubmit so it can sport some nice, clean vectors?

That worked surprisingly well! Special hat tips to Konjak, John Nesky and savethe dinosaurs for pages I particularly enjoyed. Next time, any chance of impressing of people a bit more strongly the importance of not discarding all the content of the previous pages? Several page authors this time annoyed me by breaking the continuity in an excessive and unnecessary way. The format is at its best when as much content from the previous page carries over as possible.

The comic continuation thing was a FANTASTIC idea.
Also, yes, konjak's page... Holy shit. And kinnas's mario-mega man-quote was sooooo awesome haha. Full of other indie references everywhere, too.
Nice work, everyone!

I knew there was a reason Mr.T's frohawk was so solid and unmoving.

Just finished it all. This may be one of the greatest narratives of out time.

You know, it does look like a dream narrative. At least in my experience dreams tend to do stuff like this a lot. Losing or altering connections and elements just as our perception moves away from them, and then creating entirely new ones to fill the gaps. I agree that a few people seemed to go out of their way to break continuity. It wasn't nearly as pronounced as the last comicompo, at least, and one might argue that's just part of the show. I'm glad you liked the bird arc Konjak. Is my page one of those you liked? I tried to do a mix of going in a completely new direction and sticking with the setting I was given, and letting the next page decide how they'd work with that. Great job everyone.

It was the most consistent and funny as well, that's why I liked those pages, all of them!

Funniest page was probably Mass's. ROR! But Id have to go with Derek and say the funniest page was Mass's although lots of them were very close. Oh, so this is what pride feels like.

Yep, I've just made the bike disappear because it was boring to draw it every frame, I laughed out loud when I found out that it really was a retractable bike all along.
Oh, and I thought the guy with the bike was Peter Molyneux, somehow I expected the story to be full of Peter Langedell references.
Oh, and someone should really do a game based in this comic.
And thumbs up to all the silversnakes, the only team without "it was a dream all along" sequence.
Anyway, when we start the next one?
(Oh, and Xerus is a genius, since when he has been planning all to make all comics part of the same story? from the beginning or since we started discussing it for the comicompo 4?)

Awesome :D Kinnas get my vote for best page, helped along by my love of megaman, mario, bad-ass facial hair and rough paint.
And yeah, linking all the comics together was an awesome idea.

The comic turned out even better than I could have imagined. Great job everybody! It's kinda funny that the little octopus became one of the most long lived characters in the comic after I added it just to avoid drawing the diver's face...

Yay~ This comic is pure love <3 random hilarious love! Everyone did such an amazing job ^_^
I loved so many pages and I can't list them all, but the bird-pages are adorabletastic. 8D My one favourite must be Melly's.
So impressed by unsilentwill for being able to follow up the worst page ever (sorry >__<) so well~

Now I finally read through the whole thing, and it's completely awesome. Linking the four stories together was a stroke of genius. It's kinda funny that the little octopus became one of the most long lived characters in the comic after I added it just to avoid drawing the diver's face...
Well, I knew that after konjak rocked his page, I couldn't just forget about the octopus, even though I focused on the other character.
