Commentary
- Protecting a weird bird from a pie tin
I didn't originally start Part 9 with checking in on these four, but I decided we really should. This also meant we could have them go over what people witnessed instead of Bishop.
TIME!
While EGS is ahead of us in terms of magic technology, our world has gotten ahead of theirs in terms of everyday technology. I've allowed shocking tech advancements given the short timespan of the story, but I see that more as a retcon than actual advancements in such little time.
I don't want to keep doing that, so people trying to do magic stuff in secret at least have the advantage of camera phones not being extra absurdly good yet.
For a bit of additional context, saying "caught in 4K" would just get you confused looks in Moperville.
Behind the Scenes stuff
I'm doing my best to work ahead at the moment. As I write this, I have more two pages sketched, and one EGSNP mostly inked. I'm trying to go with a system in which, most days, I finish an already sketched story page, and make an entire EGSNP. On some days I do other things (sketch, write, sketchbook, etc).
I like this more than previous attempts at this approach because it switches things up a bit. I can take a break from a story page to work on EGSNP. I find I like this more than working on multiple story pages or EGSNPs on the same day.
