We’re running some ads for the comic again today, so if you’re new be sure to say hi! The recent donations listed below have allowed us to do this, so be sure to thank those people too.
Altermentality:
We’ve had a few generous and wonderful donors (one of them EXTREMELY so, wow!!) lately, but they were too humble to request cameos! I give thanks to Trevor, Sheryl and guy-who-intended-to-remain-anonymous with all my heart. But if you’re not that humble, it’s totally cool to pay us to stick you (or an Idenian of your design) into this comic! The money all goes back to the website, advertising, and heck – maybe even helping me on my way to the next step of tablet so I can gain a level in professionalism. Just click on the “rewards” tab for details!
By the way, I feel like mentioning that one of my very favorite story webcomics is about to hit its 300th page. If you like The Fourth, I’m willing to bet you’ll like Beyond the Canopy, which deserves a lot more love. So if any of you are looking for something new to read, you should take your commenting prowess over there!
Just how old is Slice?
Mid-20s. His roomies are all around the same age.
oh Davis, you’re so evil.
Truly worthy of his demonhood – making people be nice! The horror!
Yes! The ubershading is amazing.
iapinio Dyspepsia. What is that supposed to mean?
I think your orange-anger-aura-thingy set something on fire, Davis.
I can practically hear Ecta snapping.
What does it sound like?
It sounds like whatever it sounded like when this happened: http://prideoflife.com/?id=231
BTW, that little, puny black silhouette is supposed to be pretty tall. I don’t know… maybe about 6’0″? That’s how big the tree is.
Nooo! MOM!
Wow… the comic has evolved so much since then.
Overall, yes. That was almost exactly a year ago, wasn’t it? Although I have to admit the art on that page is pretty good for the time.
Was Davis compassionate for Slice for a second there or was that just an unintentional side effect of tormenting Ecta? In any case, Ecta really has a way with words.
It’s up to you. That’s why I had him covering his mouth with his notebook in the second panel. Is he upset or is he grinning evilly? Slice is his friend, but he probably agrees with Ecta to some extent.
Anything can pass for a compliment when it’s Ecta. Even if it’s just a comment on your color.
PINK JOY.
The rule of Ecta: If it’s not insulting, it’s a compliment.
Is it just me or is the power really going to Davis’ head?
Let’s hope not! He has a big enough head already!
Maybe it’s going into his horns.
Or his bow-tie?
Slice, you’re so adorable.
See, Ecta could take a lesson from you.
Slice can’t wait to sell him mom.
Nice?! I’m allergic to nice!
Nooo, she’ll wind up in a tiny plastic cup at Petsmart
In which Slice is reestablished as best [s]pony[/s] character.
Skärva – magic
Derk – loyalty
Lorelei – kindness
Ecta – honesty
Slice – laughter
Floyd – generosity
Davis – …Spike
So Slice corresponds to Pinkie, who really was the best pony. Still is, I suppose… don’t watch the show anymore.
Literally just started reading earlier this afternoon after clicking one of the ads. It’s a fun comic.
Thanks!
Glad you enjoy it!
I’m trying to imagine Slice drunk now.
Captcha is: street…$1 btsasu
…sounds like a bargain. Don’t know what a btsasu is, though.
Maybe when he gets drunk, he has a flash of insight and suddenly becomes very serious and wise…
Maybe we’ll find out. Or maybe not. Maybe a btsasu is a kind of drink they serve at this seedy demon bar!
“I could go for a nice strawberry btsasu right now.”
I caught up yesterday. i dunno, i feel like i really needed to tell you guys how much i enjoy this webcomic, i even doodled Skarva (my friend will laugh at me when she finds out). if i ever get around to coloring it on a school computer, i’ll share it with you guys maybe…?
but yeah.
Thanks a lot for making this, i mean it.
you’ve got another loyal fan
Awww, thank you so much! Making people smile and finding people who enjoy our characters and story is why we do what we do. And if you ever do get around to coloring that drawing, just let us know and we can put it up on the fanart page if you’d like :3
alright, i’ll let you know :>
This is a beautiful, beautiful thing, Courtney.
:’)
It’s blue-tiful!
Just noticed the comic title’s shout out, never cease to amaze me.
Wow…did not expect to see a reference to that today. And now I feel old.
