Author Notes:
I hope that people aren't turned off by Sylene's text spam in Panel 2 or 3... I wanted to convey that she was speaking really fast, and set up John's stunned comment in response to feeling overwhelmed.. Let me know if it works, I guess... She's probably not going to do that very often (and will be disappearing for a while too) so if you did find it annoying, I guess we'll have a breather for a while.
Anyone notice the almost houdini-like name drop there? Yeah, I looked over at June again and said "Did we ever put her name in the comic?" She claimed Deja vu, I said "No, this actually happened before.. Twice."
By the time they show up, I've tended to have them written for quite a while, and their name is so common in my mind that I forget that no one else knows.. (unless you read the comments for the Sylene preview image, I guess.. But since we might change that later on to remove them from the general continuity, best to name drop it here :)
I think that this one helps to show Sylene's unpleasant side. It's mostly for show, but there you have it. Beth looked pretty pissed, which is a good set up for next Monday's comic. John looks pretty stunned too...
Anyways, I hope that everyone enjoys this one.. I enjoyed it, so hopefully you guys do too. Even though I had to go back after it was 'done' and add in the music notes.
If you're a periodic checker, we've got a caption contest going on the previous image (a piece of fan art with no words!), and we're going to put up a piece of Fan Art from Alicia on Saturday.
Enjoy the rest of the week, and we'll see you on Saturday!

Also for a minute I thought that June was asking John to get "into her sweater" as in some veiled sexual thing, lol...
You know...
<puts on low, sultry voice>
"Maybe, could you wear -my- sweater?"
Yeah... there's something going on here.
PS: I like June, she's exactly what TOGM needed.
i am a little disappointed that i can't actually smack john on the back of the head though :/ lol
@Guy Incognito - I'm glad you enjoy her, she's fun to write :)
@Barrahir - Good stuff ;) I'm happy people weren't put off by it, and thenk you.
@Effigy - I think June is exactly what this comic needed too haha :D And if it -were- June? Yes, it would totally have been innuendo ;) As for Sylene, I'm glad she's joined us as well :)
@Viper - I'm glad :) I was hoping that people would go for it, but there's always that concern that people are going to get put off by something like that. Thanks for enjoying it :D There are times that I want to smack John upside the head too... I think that he presents a good case next Thursday though :)
@June - There are some similarities there, I have to say ;)
Anyways, never enough Junes, especially in January...
But yes, Sylene is awesome...
Which one of you writes this again? Because you rock.
@Kayzan - I'm the writer, and thank you :) What specifically did you despise? Hopefully you despise her for the reasons that I wrote, and not a completely different one ;)
@Barrahir - My comments page is always better for the inclusion of Effigy, misinterpretation or not ;)
Thanks.
