Cassiopeia AND..., Page 8

Gunwild: It can seem a little odd to denote grief with the stuff you'd expect, black clothes and a cemetery, when we're trying to make it clear that this family has its unique aspects and traditions - but that's meant to contrast with the next couple pages. Besides, we wanted to do it in one image, and in the little time we had it seemed like the right call. The thing that we decided would help a bunch too is Wrenn taking care of one of her younger relatives a bit, because th...

I will never miss a chance to do a joke about how a tiny character is tiny.

Gunwild: I dunno kid, you should be careful about trusting old people. They know all the tricks.
Psu: I dunno, sometimes old people know the best stuff. Like which restaurants serve the really good authentic stuff that you used to like and what to order on the secret menu. Did we name the Great Aunt? She seems important.
Gunwild: We may reveal that later but in the context of Wrenn writing in her journal it was a bit more expositi...

Panel 3 is a neat face. Psu was actually willing to accept a compliment about how good it is for once.

Gunwild: Doodling on your journal is normal for young people, nobody mock!
Psu: This is kinda a pretty page. I might've made those doodles too "professional looking" that it doesn't quite look like Wrenn drew them herself though... Maybe if this adventure thing doesn't work out, she could end up a comic artist.
Gunwild: What an awful thing thing to wish on a child... anyway the "This too shall pass" is actually a bit of very old s...

That's a neat way to save time and page space that would otherwise be spent boringly walking up stairs, or something!

Psu: I kinda don't remember how this page went, but it definitely gets across a mood.
Gunwild: I know what this little confusion and cute faux pas means to me, but I think I was hoping it would get the reader's imagination working on the subject, too. So, what's it mean to you?
Psu: I think... it's like everything about this moment is heightened because of the drama of revealing you've just left your job with your friends and crew...

PANOPTES INTELLIGENCE ANALYSIS SYSTEM V1.3
TRANSCRIPTION OF COLLECTED LYRICS FOLLOWS

NOTE: This barely-modified version of a 19th-Century Earth song is traditional among wandering spacers, and about a place of plenty and convenience. It is one of countless that evoke the “Land of Milk and Honey” concept from a modern, space-faring point of view. It is also one of ma...

Sometimes you can pace a scene pretty differently just by changing the order the images go in, even if nothing in them is different. What you can't guess from this is which way was in the script, and which modification Psu suggested and I liked.
And I don't have to tell you, because I'm mysterious!

Gunwild: I don't know that he's the toughest emotionally, how does one even measure something like that? But Farring has probably said goodbye to the most shipmates in his career and knows how to do it proper and straightforward. He already knows what's what and that she's definitely outta there, because you probably shouldn't touch a superior officer's shoulder like that. But it's a nice thing to do.
Psu: Farring was with Maddy with Captain what's his ...

Manual doorbells might seem sort of quaint to have in the future, but there will probably always be people who prefer to have self-contained systems instead of an "internet of things" continuously mucking with every electronic in your life.
Probably not me, though. I'm weak and like conveniences...

Psu: OH I FORGOT ABOUT THIS PAGE.
Psu: I THOUGHT I WAS COMING TO THE COMMENTARY TO FORGET MY TROUBLES.
Gunwild: Normally I'm not huge on what's surely a single image like the first three panels being broken up by panel borders. I feel like larger images can show progression just as well. But this one feeds into the next panel's imagery nicely.
Psu: Mhmmm....... well in retrospect I suppose I could've done wi...

In the Prime Galactic Regency's military, there are actually a wide variety of uniform style options available, and you can choose which you use. Whether or not they have your size is another story.

Gunwild: I definitely only added that bit about the headband being cute in after you drew the cute headband, which I don't believe was specified anywhere in the script.
Psu: I don't even remember adding the headband. I would've credited it to you being clever if you just asked me right now. I think most of my decisions on this page was giving it the same color as the previous page which was set in the past. Also I put in one of my other comic c...

Gunwild: Oh, I distinctly remember how this went. You had this sweet little idea about a causal loop, and my first instinct was that it's zany, setting-derailing super-technology... so it only made sense if someone had found an inane commercial use for it. Which lined up nicely with them being on a trade station that's more or less a space mall.
Psu: I admit we had a lot of back and forth on this because it involves a lot of WILD Interstellar physics mi...
