Good thing I got Mandy out of here
before she discovered what Nerd Boy's

But I have to get him out of the VR
before Mandy realizes there's no

I could use this extra VR set to

I couldn't think of anything last night, so I slept on it, and
here's the result. Maybe not the best strip ever, but it advances
the story line. Personally, I think there's too much talking and
not enough action.

It gives the idea that he speaks in a "flat" way, with no expression at all. Or at least that's what I got. Great work. :) -- Andrea Spadaccini a.k.a.

More specifically, I wanted it to kind of look like someone talking in his sleep. I've also used it in past strips to indicate a low, maybe whispering, voice. I also tend to omit punctuation when I'm doing that. Above, a comma and full stop is missing. > Great work. :) Thanks. :) -- OO Joaquim G�ndara .||. http://www.Nerd-Boy.net bb jg

An artwork can be recognized from little details like the ones you put in your work. If I had more money (I'm a student) I would buy one of your shirts, and you can bet that I'll do it. last thing: can I put nb in my .sig? Can you arrange it for me? Consider that the string after "Now playing" changes continuously. TIA! :) -- Andrea Spadaccini a.k.a. [Deja-vu] Lupino - Catania - Now playing: Atb & D'Agostino - Don't Bla Bla Bla

I'm not sure if anyone's called me an artist before... > last thing: can I put nb in my .sig? Can you arrange it for me? Something like this? I tried to think of something that he might do besides just standing around. A sword fight seems nice. Andrea Spadaccini OO X ..~ en garde! a.k.a.
