#933 – Attitude Adjustment…
I might have mentioned this in a previous post but you might be seeing some different things here in Capes & babes during the 2014 year. One of the biggest things you might see is that there might not always be a gag at the end of every strip. My first strip back from my C=December break was one such strip and this is another one.
That’s because these strips are a part of a much bigger story line I had in my head since the tail end of December. So, I want to do a little bit more experiment with story lines and that might mean sacrificing the ha-ha so that the story might flow or progress.
I have no idea of this will work, if it will be successful or if you guys might like it. Hopefully, you do and you’ll be okay not getting a daily dose of ha-ha from Capes & Babes.
I guess we’ll see, right?

I’m looking forward to learning more about the characters as well as storylines that take several days to tell. I see no reason why you can’t have some variety in the comic, it certainly doesn’t have to always be a joke a day all the time. You’re doing a fine job, Chris. 🙂
Thanks, man. As long as it isn’t boring… 🙂
I second that. I would like to know more about Roni’s past especially how she and her brother became vampires in that were they born vampires or turned into vampires.
I’ve told you before, you have to follow your characters. When they need a story instead of gag-a-day, you have to do it, or you’ll get blocked.
Which reminds me….
Yeah… this is something I keep flirting with but never seriously pulling the trigger. Some it also has to do with the fact that I tend to get impatient from a writing stand-point. I tend to slack off big time on the build up of a story and just want to get to the climax. Easy to do with a gag-a-day since the beats are so small. Harder to do with a much longer story. At least for me anyway. 🙂
Actually, knowing Roy, the last panel is funny. I wouldn’t expect him to be motivated long enough to finish anything. 😉
Yup… werewolves can be like that sometimes. 🙂
Ill settler for the mother of all animated GIFs as a storytelling convention.
What would that be, Michael? I’m drawing a blank on what the mother of all animated GIFs might be… must not have had enough caffeine yet this morning. 🙂
