Galaxion on hold for the summer! In its place we present “Real Magic”. This story will run for six weeks, every Tuesday as usual. If you’d like to read some of the regular Galaxion story, you can start at the beginning, or why not try one of the completed short stories? Look for new pages of Galaxion to return September 1st!
Hey everyone! Girlamatic, the site Galaxion first launched on in September 2006, has just had a major relaunch! I hope you’ll all check it out. There are some awesome comics over there!
Hi! David again. I took the idea of payment in candles from some medieval household accounts, where servants are described as being paid in candles. Of course, candles were also used to tell time, so it seemed logical to quantify the amount of candle wax due in terms of time.
I’m sure I’ve never behaved that way around women. Never!
For some reason, I get a real Linda Medley/Castle Waiting vibe from this artwork, as opposed to the Galaxion artwork, which has a kind of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko meets Trina Robbins feel to it.
Which is odd, because they are also so clearly the work of the same artist. Go figure.
Oooh, thank you! Big Linda Medley fan here. I recently got a chance to see a couple of original pages from Castle Waiting, thanks to Jim Ottaviani (go read his latest book: T Minus: The Race to the Moon!) for showing us his amazing collection of comic art. I could not believe how small she draws! Her pages were roughly 8.5 x 11 inches, and drawn on some sort of graph paper. As someone who draws on 11 x 18 bristol, this blew me away!
