You're in the UK, so I think you legally have to call them TMHT (Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles), because Ninjas aren't allowed in the UK. In fact, you're probably risking some serious jail time by reading our comic. Maybe we should make it so our site redirects UK visitors to satanhero.com. I'll talk to Ghoul about it.

But yeah, I was talking about Shredder.

Actually, no. We decided not force ourselves to be beholden to any particular page count for each issue. That way we're free to tell the story at whatever pace is most fitting, instead of trying to either cram it all into 22 pages, or alternately add "filler" to pad it out to 22 pages (though I don't imagine we'd ever have an issue that's less than 20 pages).

Issue 2 will be longer than the first issue, but we actually don't know by how much. The script is all written, but it's hard to judge exactly how much space each page of the script will require. For instance, I thought for sure that Sam's Mr. Skull story would take more than one page, but Jessica made it nicely fit into one. And there are other scenes that ended up taking more pages than I would have guessed.

Do I? I never knew, they were TMNT in the Netherlands where I grew up. I'll just throw a hissy fit about cultural backgrounds and discrimination. People always snap their mouths shut when you do that.

Having said that, I would bookmark satanhero.com and recommend it to anyone. If only to see how they respond..

Interesting. While I totally agree that fillers etc are just a nuisance I just assumed issues would be the same lengths. I should've known better of course, after all this is not just any other web comic..  8)

Thanks! Though I think when people say they get a vibe from something, it's short for vibration. Let Marky Mark tell you about it. But vibrant basically means the same thing anyway (except it's an adjective), so whatever.


--- Quote from: Rijst on October 05, 2014, 03:43:46 AM ---I like the goat as well, although his freaky eyes suggest that it might be more than just that..

--- End quote ---

Yeah, goat eyes are pretty scary. Mongooses (mongeese?) have similarly scary eyes, and I don't know why. They're nothing like the big herbivores that also have horizontal pupils, like goats, horses, hippos, etc. They're actually somewhat related to cats.

Michigander1911:
Okay Jess just made one of the best posts ever, linking up Marky Mark.

Rape_expert:
So much love for this page - probably my favorite yet. And not just for the Satanic Ninja goat.
