Artist's Comments

... I'm sorry?...
I did say this storyline was rather far out. I've probably been troping too much, also.

Az & Crowley, being occult/ethereal agents of the Powers That Be, are, canonically, very aware of the "behind the scenes" goings-on in their straight(-ish!) version of reality. And it had already been hinted that they've a similar awareness of the medium they are currently featuring in. They are far too canny to simply play along all the time.

Basically... Eddie-boy is too straight and simplistic a character to be an interesting addition to the GND-verse. And if that sounds big-headed of me, I'll put it another way: he was not gifted with the characterization and depth and narrative substance enough to go toe to toe with creations of truly magical Storytellers such as Jim Henson, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. I'll credit Stephanie Meyer as an entertaining and mildly thrilling read, but she is simply not in the same league.

To put it yet another way : Edward Cullen is defined by being cool and mysterious and attractive and cool and dangerous and cool and yadda yadda yadda. Strip that away from him - because as Jareth and Erik well know, the Building''s Fail-field actively and sadistically gets in the way of any decent drama, emo, or angst, and is stingy with the allowance of coolness, also - and there's really not much left to play around with. Ridicule is utterly alien to his make-up, and that means he can hardly fit in with the tone of a silly fancomic.


If this episode confuses, bothers and disappoints you, I suggest you let Crowley mindwipe you and just forget it ever happened. I promise you that Fourth Wall damage and smartass disruptions will be kept in check for a while.

Poor Sparkly bastard never stood a chance. Love how Crowley is disposing of him.

I'm an abhorrently lazy creature. and as such havn't gotten around to commenting before, although no excuse can be used in light of this amazingly awesome brilliant fan comic.
So good that I havn't been checking every few hours since tuesday morning for an update or anything mildly stalkerish and such...
Ta for the time and effort you put into this, on behalf of all those lazy sh*ts I applaud you!
:iconcherryhobbit:
LOL! I love it XD The last panel with cake made me laugh. I also agree. I'm not the biggest Twilight fan. They're all pretty one dimensional to me.

WOO META.

You seem worried about it, but I thought this was an awesome comic simply because it was so over the heads of each of the characters, but the readers understood perfectly.

IT'S DRAMATIC IRONY. :iconblushingplz:

“See, I’m totally more intimidating than you are.”
"What, because you have a snake coming out of your ass?"
:iconsoumahatori:
Nice. Totally don't understand half of it, but it at least made me chuckle.
:iconjaney-jane:
I love you. Will you marry me?

Really though, I'm continually inspired by your with and sense of pace and timing.
Also- love how Toby looks like a mini-Aziraphale.



And I want cake too.

You. Are. Awesome.
:iconsheepishwolfie:
Awesome.

The best I can say about the Twilight characters is that they are mildly interesting people trapped in a poorly written story. The main character, Bella, had an insane amount of potential that she never lived up to.

This page made me LOL, but I feel like Erik at least would also be aware of the goings on of this world, considering the number of OOC fanfics he's had to stumble through, you'd think he's have good instincts about the authors by now.

On a slightly more relevant to this particular strip, I most approve of Crowley's method of removing said *shudder* sparkling vampire.
