I started the comic really late, so I’m still coloring the comic. For now, I posted the black and white version.

I believe a correction is needed. I think you meant, “we’re not exactly inconspicuous”, otherwise, keep up the great work! :-D

work leads to sumos, sumos lead to powerbombs, powerbombs lead to falling asleep on the sumo, falling asleep on the sumo leads to starting the comic really late

More like working our asses off leads to starting the comic really late.

We work our asses off and lose sleep for Applegeeks, how about cutting us some fucking slack?

it’s all good, it’s not like anyone’s gonna die from withdrawal symptoms due to a late comic. we understand that it’ll be done when it’s done, kudos for posting the b&win any case. hope you guys get some form of sleep, either that or CAFFEINE!

Yeah … sorry, I kinda overreacted. I just need to stop reading these comments first thing after waking up … I can get cranky pretty quick first thing in the morning.

LMAO! Dude you just snapped at this guy hahahaha! The Panagari-claws came out! I completely understand you man; I’m cranky as hell in the morning too. That made for some damn good comedy though, thanks for the laugh :)

haha wow, that was pretty cool actually. Yeh no harm meant by my comment. It was just in relation to the lite comic :P I can completely understand how that would be taken the wrong way after waking up, i have the same problem. I know how crazy it would be finding time to do AG and completely appreciate the work you guys put into it. Still…that was a pretty awesome response, loved it.

Holy Cow, I can’t wait to see where this storyline is going. I’m a writer myself, and I’m having a really great time watching how all the different threads are unfolding. I’m really looking forward to the point when they all come together. Ananth, you’re an inspiration. Keep up the good work!

And yeah, yeah, Hawk does awesome art, etc. That too. :-)

I feel like I am lost. LOL its probably just me though. Comic looks great even in black and white. Can’t wait to see the finish product though.

AG’s power is actually in colour. ‘Cus you see the sketchy versions never have that much detail etc.
Now MT’s power is in sketches, Piro works hard on packground etc.

I always get a kick out of seeing the process; I’m sure I’m not the only one :)

I agree. I actually like seeing the B&W, and would be happy if you posted it each time, or if you decided to skip coloring some of them so that you could sleep more.

Agreed, losing sleep over a hobby isn’t good.

I hereby grant you the right of laziness.
I know how hard it is to complete a comic.
and I can’t even imagine how hard coloring that is.

How come the hawk is sitting awkwardly? the only way he’d be like that is if he is sitting with his butt much lower than his knees. Even if his feet are supposed to be flat against the wall, then he should be sitting out more. It just looks off.

Comment by Dukayn

His butt could be lower than his knees, like if he’s sitting on a rooftop or something that has a raised outer lip, then his knees would be higher. Or he could just be sitting back further than it looks and leaning forward.

its cool to see the line art and then the final product. any chance of a decent colouring tutorial in the near future? nothing too fancy…but i really love your style.

Hawk did show us how he made his comics step-by-step in issue 245, and in his videos where he just demonstrates it for us. I think Hawks time would be better made doing a step-by-step comic again, rather than a whole tutorial. Both Ananth and Hawk seem very busy. (It would also save him one or two comic days)

you sure its 245? its Hawk in the bar with Josie…

I liked coming and getting the B&W for the story, then coming back for the pretty. It’s almost like getting 2 updates!

Damn… this is so good, I’m thinking of just leaving it for a while so new comics can just acumulate, and I’ll have a session of AG-splurge after a few weeks! (:
By the way, you guys look like you have a great job, lucky…
