Page Commentary No. 149

So they could have predicted what was coming. But it was tiny and in a funny color, so I doubt anyone did. Still, I like our consistency!
Psu: It works nicely if you’re reading the pages in the same sitting. However in a webcomic you have to account for readers who haven’t seen the previous page in a while. It was worth taking a moment to show the knuckleduster come out again to setup the next shot. And speaking of shots, this is a hell of a complicated series of images again isn’t it? We’re still dividing our sequence between things on the ground and things on the air and there’s a giant crab and a giant gun and a squid ship and a cat getting shocked. It’s kinda a miracle it worked as well as it did. Oh there are also upside down kids.
Gunwild: I've never asked if you like roller coasters. I love 'em! Harness-type ones are great 'cuz you know they're goin' upside-down or they wouldn't have 'em.
Psu: I actually have a fear of roller coasters. Not just like... the fear you’re supposed to have. I don’t like em. I barely even like cars that go fast.
Gunwild: It's okay, you can sit in the shade and eat snacks while we're at Six Flags and I'm on stuff.
Psu: Hey, if you think I’m waiting for you to sit in the two hour long line well... you can find me at the food court with a nice pleasant meal. Maybe they’ll have crab.
Gunwild: Fried crab, just like in the comic...
Psu: This is terrible day... nice shot by Zeke though. Seems like a pretty hard thing to do... who’s flying the ship?
Gunwild: I bet simple atmospheric maneuvers can be automated with a reasonable degree of reliability
Psu: Flying right side up is optional. Oh, may I toot my own horn here? I forgot I had the explosion in the last panel push away some of the dust clouds. That’s pretty cool! I bet that would lookg good in a movie.
Gunwild: And then we could afford to finally go to a theme park...
