And with that, Violet’s childhood might be ruined…
Her Star Wars speech is another case of me channeling my inner nerd. I’ve made my fair share of flimsy pop-culture arguments in the past that, while might have made some sense in context, would usually miss the point of the original argument completely. Or worse, the other person would have no idea what I was talking about.
Daisy might just have to spell things out, because Violet clearly isn’t getting it…
- I’m definitely channeling some of my own geekiness through Violet, here. Far too often, I’ll ramble on and on about the things that I like about a particular comic or film, but completely miss certain things that others seem to pick up on immediately.
- I wanted to have a 4th-wall breaking gag in here, where after Daisy mentions artists drawing big boobs, Violet would just look unamused out at the reader. Daisy would also have been posed in such a way that her breasts would have been emphasized. The gag just didn’t work with the page’s layout and pacing, though, and felt too forced and clichéd.
- Daisy’s comment about Amanda Conner possibly being a pervy artist… anyone who’s read “The Pro” might agree. And if you haven’t read it, you should (if you’re over 18), because it’s a very funny and twisted take on super-heroes.
…to Violet’s credit, the “boob window” was painted on, and instead of an actual hole.
After too long a break, it’s about time I got the next chapter started!
Where the previous chapter served as Daisy’s official intro, this one introduces her younger cousin, Violet.
