Is it just me or does it look like Eve is in kindergarten? Eve surrounded by 5 year olds, what potential for comic events!

And then suddenly Eve’s destructive powers take hold and she destroys the whole school!!! (or I might be wrong)

Exactly how old is Ashley? Is there a possibility that they’ll end up the same class? Eve and ASHLEY in the same class…?

Oh boy. O_O

Seems like we were wrong:

<<we’re occasionally going to see her in a COLLEGE classroom.>>

Oh well, it doesn’t matter; Ananth’s the plot weaver here. We could only make guesses. :P

Eve looks so happy; you just can’t call this little snippet cute.

By the looks of it, she’s in some sort of Kindergarten or Grade III class. This “android going to school” part kind of reminds me of Ping in certain aspects. But, unlike MT, here Hawk wants her to go to school, rather than having Eve going to school without permission. Can’t wait to see the next comic tomorrow.

I’m so sorry, I left this bit out:

Eve looks so happy; you just can’t [NOT] call this little snippet cute.

Urgh, stupid brain..

Eve looks so happy; you just [HAVE TO] call this little snippet cute.

This makes more sense. Please pardon the triple posting, my brain isn’t working that well right now.. :(

I don’t know what to say about this storyline, other than it sucks. What the hell are you doing? You had something great going with the Jayce and his father and now this bullshit in which Eve goes to school? Hell, you could have even lengthened the body swap storyline instead of this. This is PATHETIC.

Tell you what, why don’t you just stick to Applegeeks lite? Any story requiring more than three seconds thought is obviously too much for you and Ananth to handle.

Comment by Irish Titan
2008-03-20 22:46:07

It is my belief that the current storyline is great and yes Hawk did have something good going with Jayce and his father. Also, What the hell have you done that’s so great, that you feel that your entitled to call Hawk and Ananth Pathetic?

Hahahaha your righteous moral outrage is funny.

I don’t expect everyone to like every storyline we do. That’s just how it is. And if a lot of people disliked a storyline, then eh - that sucks. I’ll chalk it up to experience and move on. But …

Two comics in and you’re telling me this “storyline” sucks? You don’t seem good at at reading comics, what makes you think I’m going to listen to your advice on writing them?

I don’t really want to get into an internet shouting match and trade insults because it’s a colossal waste of time. I’m going to tell you what I know for sure, and you can decide for yourself whether Applegeeks is worth your time - there’s certainly going to be no hard feelings on our end. This isn’t me being anything other than open about things, so here goes: Nothing is going to change. I have an over-arching idea, and this is the seed of it. Eve going to school isn’t going to be a storyline in and of itself - it just means that we’re occasionally going to see her in a COLLEGE classroom. It’s another setting to explore the character - she’s going to be in college for a while. I can’t and won’t say more than that because if I tell you guys what happens, there’s no point in writing it.

Anyway, hope that helps you make a decision one way or other other! I’ve got a lot of work to do, so I’d better get back to it.

YES THIS IS A GREAT IDEA

PEOPLE WILL LISTEN TO ME IF I INSULT THEM, RIGHT?

IT WON’T TOTALLY INVALIDATE MY ARGUMENT OR ANYTHNG

2008-03-21 00:50:16

Oh man, capslock does strengthen an argument, I wish I’d remembered.

2008-03-21 00:52:11

And BOLD, too

Believe-you-me, I am an expert in shouting on the intenets.

O–oh, should we get off the sexual tension and get back to the matter at hand?

THIS BILL IS OUTRAGEOUS, I DEMAND TO SEE YOUR MANAGER

My manager is gone, but we can totally get off the sexual tension in the back room if you want.

Well, I suppose you can’t make a plot and expect everyone to love it.

Still, this guy should hold his tongue. I mean, we’re only 2 comics into it for Pete’s sake! Gotta give it time to develop.

Btw: so far I like it. Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

I personally like the randomness of Applegeeks.

Besides, its Hawk’s and Ananth’s comic. They can do whatever the hell they want with it. Period. =3

Also, character development is important. If you just revolve around action, characters become stale and repeatitive (Excluding Hawk of course =p)

Why don’t you calm down and have your self a gingerale there Mr. Jones. You’re actually getting bitter and angry about the story arcs of a WEB COMIC.

 
Comment by Amake
2008-03-21 08:07:20

I think Applegeeks is more centered on characters than storylines anyway. Part of its charm, to me, is the parts where no story is going on, just the characters being themselves and being believable. Eve is going to school; do you expect action and adventure and shenanigans? I expect no more than Eve going to school.

I think the first panel of the new comic here should be made into a wallpaper. i like it alot, everytime i see it, it makes me giggle at how cute she can be.

Heh heh.. I liked this one.

Hey Hawk, do you use a tablet for your comics? I’m thinking of picking one up, and need a good recomendation.

Comment by Hawk
2008-03-21 00:26:39

2008-03-21 18:09:01

alright, I’ll look into picking one up.

Thanks for the advice!

Eve goes to school? Thats unfair ^^ she can memorise all she hears on her harddrive and look everythink up via wi-fi oO i’m jealous

I clearly must be morally outraged because I have a negative opinion about a comic I read. Forgive me! I’m going to go burn Harry Potter books now. There is no sense in spewing bullshit about my right to an opinion here, so I’ll leave it at that.

Watch out; there are rumors that they’re made out of hemp. MAGICAL hemp!

It’s not your right to an opinion that’s a problem; it’s the avenue in which you voiced it and the manner in which you chose.

 
Comment by Amake
2008-03-21 14:28:02

Opinion? Maybe when you said, I quote, “it sucks”, “This is PATHETIC” and “Any story requiring more than three seconds thought is obviously too much for you and Ananth to handle”, you were only expressing an opinion. But that’s not how it looks.

It looks more like you’re now trying to revise that earlier statement into something that doesn’t quite make you out to be both ignorant and judgmental.

… And this is why I don’t post in comic threads. Good work on the comic guys. I’m sure you get both ample ammount of praise and slander in doing what your doing. Also the fact that you guys are pro apple and rather open about it give you extra “street cred”, at least in my book. Corel for life xD.
