Yes! I did it! I managed to update again!!
each time I update it is a major accomplishment for me! Pumping out one of these pages takes a lot of work as you all well know!
anyway, I hope you enjoy it and thanks tons for stopping in!!!
Thanks! Lol
Ellen's assistant is kind of like Spock from Star Trek, he has no room for irrational emotions that impede the efficiency of his logical mind.
And, he's kind of a dick. Lol
Thanks for stopping by MadJak91!
I am guessing that the Mayans probably shoved a stake through the Tapir's backside and then rotisserie roasted it over a fire! Lol And from the way I illustrated the Tapir, I think it looks quite delicious!
Plus, like I said above, Ellen's assistant is kind of an insensitive prick. He doesn't even bother to take into consideration all the hard work and effort the villagers put in to preparing a delicious banquet for him and his group, nor does he even care if they may be offended by his statement. By the way, I hear South America is about the least radioactive place on earth right now so it is kind of bizarre that he would be checking for radiation in the first place. Lol
You know I did a little research on the South American diet when doing this page, and it seems that everything that they eat is incredibly healthy and all natural. In contrast I think the average American diet is quite toxic!
Thanks for stopping by Mr Kwon!
AS far as the taste of Tapir goes, your guess is as good as mine Shinka!
Maybe it tastes like tuna instead of chicken!
Actually, I imagine it tasting like a cross between chicken and steak.
Yuuumm!
My dad once lost a dog in our neighborhood, and to this day he thinks some Central Americans ate him! Lol
Perhaps this Tapir was someone's pet!
Also, the radiation check was more of a joke than a foreshadowing of things to come necessarily.
Thanks for stopping by!
So noted! Then the glow effect accompanying the tapir's first appearance may have just been a dramatic reveal glow rather than a "We found him down a uranium mine" glow. :) Keep up the good work.
I use the "outer glow" effect in Photoshop a lot because helps to create contrast in certain scenes when I want a subject to stand out. This glow has confused people in the past as well. One reader thought that Brock was emanating a spiritual energy because of it. Perhaps I need to use a different technique to achieve the contrast I am looking for, but outer glow is so quick and easy.
Thanks! I got a little carried away in panel 3. Glad you appreciate it!
Also, Ellen's assistant is hyper cautious to the point of absurdity. Lol
Thanks for stopping by bro!
I hear roast Tapir is as addictive as cocaine!! Once you try some, you can never eat anything else ever again!
Kidding! Lol
But I am curious to know what it tastes like myself. I guess I will have to travel to South America now.
Thank you for dropping in!
Lol That is funny!
Seriously though, we should all throw out our microwaves. I have read that the microwave process actually creates toxic compounds in our foods!
Cooking things over an open flame the old fashioned way is the best method!
But who has time for that!?! Death by microwave I guess! Ha Ha Ha Ha!
If only people from the Northern hemisphere could say the same thing about our food! What with all the nuclear bomb testing and the Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear radiation swirling through the air and sea!
Thanks for stopping by!
I am VERY impressed with your webcomic, Chris-tar! The line work, coloring, inking, etc. are all off the charts amazing! You have a great talent for making the reader feel like they are right there, in the midst of everything going on, as well! Excellent work, Chris-tar! :)
Yes. Sadly, I am what they call "poor white trash" in America, and I have been struggling with bills that take up all my time. However! I swear to update this comic soon!!!!!!
You have good painting skills. Did you think about submitting your work as a colorist? It isn't my area, but I made about $1,500 bucks with colors easily past year (90% of time, I'm the penciler and another 10%, the cover illustration artist). You should try it :)
Publishers accept submissions by email usually. I heard they say it's just to download any black and white line art from any artist and put some colors on it. I'm pretty sure 2 pages should be enough for publisher submissions.
Oh, I DO wonder what Tapir tastes like! I mean probably just pork, but I won't know until I try it!!
Thank you so much for leaving a comment on my ComicFury story, Shatterrealm. I really appreciate it! Your comic style reminds me of classic comic strips like Mary Worth, The Phantom, or Rex Morgan. Adventure!
"Radiation Levels Normal," I'll have to remember that. . . It will be good to have something to say at Thanksgiving dinner, if people ask me what I'm thankful for.
Thank You!
I have been too busy with my home business to update my comics, and it is shameful. I apologize to all my subscribers for the long delay. But, I promise, this comic isn't dead! And one day, I will update!
What you said is true. All my artistic energy is swallowed up by a hone business I am running, and any free time I have, I just try and relax or get other high priority tasks taken care of.
I will never give up on this comic though, and I have been working on the next page bits at a time, it is just not up to my standard yet.
Thanks for the comment. :)
Hi Duane. I am notorious for never updating my comic. lol But, I swear one day I will. Part of my problem is developing a technique that allows me to quickly create comic pages, but at the same time, preserve the quality of the art, and I still haven't figured that out yet. when I do, I will update like crazy! I also am stuck in life's quagmire of taxes, rent, bills etc, and that is also stunting my ability to make comics. If I could only make money from doing this I would post all the time! P.S. I really like Edentia but I haven't had time to get all caught up reading it yet, I am way behind and am only on page 10 or something. See you around!
I’m really digging the story so far. I’m a sucker for the whole “ancient civilization” type of genre. It kind of reminds me of why I love the works of Jules Verne so much! It’s exiting, like I want to turn the page and see what happens next. Freaking cliffhangers 😆I’ll look forward to the next page. The story got me hooked!
Thank you very much for reading my comic. I am flattered. I long to finish the next page, but life has me in its death grip and won't let go. It will take a major act of will power to post the next page. Hopefully I will do it soon. Talk later.
I saw roast tapir in Cosmic Warriors and then saw that it was a reference to your comic so I thought I better come over here and check it out. Your comic has a real cool look to it. Hopefully one day you will be able to continue it

I wonder how they cook a WHOLE animal like that :D

I actually subbed during the long break believing this comic actually has a chance. And I was right :D
Anyway, they did a great job roasting it then. It looks like the tapir is just tanned :D
And its expression is kind of... happy about it...
Thanks for stopping by Mr Kwon!
nice work! :)
Maybe it tastes like tuna instead of chicken!
Actually, I imagine it tasting like a cross between chicken and steak.
Yuuumm!
Off camera, some kid is tugging on his mother's skirts and saying, "Madre, where is Peppe? I cannot find my tapir..."
Perhaps this Tapir was someone's pet!
Also, the radiation check was more of a joke than a foreshadowing of things to come necessarily.
Thanks for stopping by!
Panel 3 backgrounds are excellent by the way!
Also, Ellen's assistant is hyper cautious to the point of absurdity. Lol
Thanks for stopping by bro!
Beautiful page Chris! Keep up the awesome work!
I wish that everyone in the world could be free to do the things they really wanted to do!
Kidding! Lol
But I am curious to know what it tastes like myself. I guess I will have to travel to South America now.
Thank you for dropping in!
Lol Kidding!
Glad to see you back! I can't wait to read all your updates!

And thanks for being my newest subscriber!!!
My main critic IS... Aw, man! it's from 2015. This story looks promising! Do you have any plan to continue it?

I've had a bit of a delay with my latest page due to life commitments but I'll hopefully have it finished soon.
Soon, after I win the lottery, I plan on finally finish this comic! Ha!!!!!
