Hey everyone!
Thanks for all the comments on last week's page, so keep 'em coming! We love hearing from you!
Not sure if you noticed, but we changed the feature suggestions page. Silly suggestions, or ones with low ratings, can now be rejected. We've also separated the active suggestions from the completed and rejected ones so it's easier for you to browse :)
We'll soon be adding a gallery for edits and fan art, so if you're feeling particularly awesome, send in your art and we'll feature it there!

Happy holidays everyone, and we'll see you next week!

Deep fried to a crispity crackly crunch.

But seriously that looks very painful. Poor Syd. Least he got a kiss before she zapped him. Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 12:02AM Reply

Honestly, that's not a bad way to go out. A kiss, then a nice display of pyrotechnics. Still sucks he died (maybe) though. Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 12:18AM Reply

WHAT. D: I thought Ariel would die and now Syd might. Well at least he got kissed.
My love and interest in this grows each week. Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 12:18AM Reply

Can I just say that it makes me really happy to go to my Google Reader and see both an Aikonia AND an Awkward Zombie update? It's cool that Katie can do serious and comical comics. Go, talent! Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 03:56AM Reply

HMMMMMM... I think I know what's going to happen next, and I seriously hope you guys don't cliche it. Just know that I'm pretty certain, and I'll be watching you. I won't give it away here, because it may be spoilerific if true, but I'll be watching... Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 04:40AM Reply

Did Syd die? I hope not. Solaris has been a fat butt in the past few comics, but my question is what did he do to Ariel and why is he being a jerk to Syd? If he's unworthy or whatever why is he in the mage thingy-ma-bobber? hahaha sorry 3:30 insanity :DDDDDDDD Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 06:23AM Reply

It's based entirely on the number of cards in his High Council Trading Card collection. Posted on December 13th, 2010 at 11:11AM

Kenichi said:
well, i think it's safe to say she's not herself anymore... possession? possession.
and she smiled, after she kissed him...not good-somewhere, her baser level emotions enjoy what she does to him. Of course, if it's possession, she could regain her sense of self, unless they've merely made her body a vessel, and have placed a new soul inside it...either way, this comic is shaping up to be very good, i'm going to have to keep an eye on it...when does it post?

I was thinking possession, too. After all, there *was* that big summoning circle-looking thing earlier. Posted on December 14th, 2010 at 12:52AM

knows too much.

though it would be a great plot twist if he left a message or something. some way of contacting people. like "Hey, i'm off to meet [insert name], to get secret information from Solaris. Posted on December 15th, 2010 at 10:21PM

Wisp replied:
@Kenichi Seeing he only had a few minutes after being told to meet solarious I don't think he actually had time to leave a message. Plus he had no reason to believe he would be killed.

I like how Syd avoided the typical what-is-happening-I-used-to-think-you-guys-were-cool unrealistically long speech about how confused he is and just stuck to "What." like any normal person would. XD Posted on December 15th, 2010 at 10:52AM Reply

Quick question. Have all the members of the council been chosen that way?

If so did they also have random bloodlust? Posted on December 16th, 2010 at 03:48PM Reply
