If i’m doing something wrong because i’m selfish, i’ll stop when the stakes get too high. If i’m doing something wrong because i’m convinced i’m right, the stakes might never be too high.

I really do think it’s the ones who do things because they don’t care about others.

Reading on iPad works quite well for turning the page around and upside down.

I think the grey works fine. Really quite fine.

I;m still confused about the narrative, but that would be entirely different if I had a physical paper book in front of me where I could turn the page around from one side to the other, around and upsidown. Your trying something different and that’s never easy to move something from a physical world through the IT web world to the reader’s eyes and ears …

I like the grey toned areas. It helps keep the past and present separate and makes the past seem ‘foggy’ which past memories always are.

I’m not sure how I feel about the grey tones. I almost think that if you want to use them, it would be more effective with slightly more contrast. Maybe it’s the grey background to Zan and Aria’s “real life” panels that makes me feel things are just washed out….darkening the background slightly in the 1st and 3rd panels may do the trick. Just a thought.

“I really wish I’d remember to stop and think sometimes”

Don’t we all, Zan, don’t we all…

… Of course, there’s always the fact that ‘villains’ rarely think they’re the bad guys. And situations can always be murky in terms of morality. The worst villains are the ones that think they’re doing what’s right.

I never said they were benign, at least. Not by human standards, in any case. That’s the point behind ‘Starfish Aliens’ and ‘Blue and Orange Morality’.

Oh, yeah, the Miesti are such benign, benevolent creatures…
