ramblings, and Bones rec
I'm having another longer recs post in the works, but it's going to take a while to type it all up, and I'm waiting for a few WIPs to be completed (because so many readers avoid those). In the meantime, here's a quick rec:
Conversations Between Doctors by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tesla321 (Bones/House crossover)
Brennan meets House... just lean back and watch the snark unfold. I haven't ever seen 'House', mind, but I think I love that guy. I also like how there's a case going on in the background.
--- Yesterday, after finishing work around one am, I started inking page 3 of the comic. I had to force myself to go to bed around half past three, but it's mostly done. I hope I'll complete it today, colour and all. Maybe I can even get page 4 inked on the weekend.
--- Got a copy of one of my books, which is just about to come out. I normally don't pimp my stuff here... wrong target group, wrong language. But this is cute and I'm quite proud of it, so...
It's a colouring book with lots of additional goodies, like stickers, and puzzles. It's a pretty cool concept, and it was fun to draw, too. (I didn't write this, just did the illus.)
--- And hey, speaking of wrong language... here're a few lines, taken from issue #3 of the Spike vs Dracula comic: Anschlag! Stoppen Sie den Betrieb! Sie konnen nicht entgehen! or, even more bizarre, Anschlag oder ich schiebe! Huh?
My friends and I were mostly mystified by "Anschlag". I suspect they fed the Germans' lines into Babelfish (because how hard is it to find a native speaker), but why the heck would the computer return "Anschlag" when you enter "Halt" or "Stop"? They're the frikkin same words.
I'm enjoying the Spike vs Dracula series, but this third issue is much weaker than the first two, imho. And not because of the creative usage of German - I though the plot was rather weak and what's up with the inkwork in the first half? Issues #1 and #2 are pretty good though... fun, well characterized, good plot and artwork.
