Subtle innuendo follows...

Well, I was kinda hoping for an original project over another spin-off, but this has potential. And since the cast has expanded so much in Ma3, Dillon has all but disappeared, save for a few little guest spots.

Is it PG-13 or R? PG-13 would just not make sense, in my opinion... :P

Oh, and also, why does this get its own forum? The whole *C verse has a single forum, and this is clearly an Ma3 spinoff (duh).

Because we knew we'd get this. :P

I was expecting, maybe, something about Sandra's modelling career in the new mystery strip, and I'd probably have been happier with that. But don't mind me, I'm just a cranky old straight male. I'll stick with it for a while, anyhow.

Soooo, we decided that Dillon should get his own little corner since it might appeal to a different audience. Time will tell. In Ma3, Dillon's main purpose is to get in Gary's way. In his own comic, he'll be allowed to grow.

In regards to Sandra, we're still working on more strips, and you never know; it might eventually get its own site. A wait & see on that one.

Well, I'm willing to give it a shot.

Not half as completely as some characters. But sadly, I imagine that no one wanted to write The Adventures of Jung and Eulice.

I'm curious as to who that audience is expected to be. Which is not sarcasm; I'm honestly curious. But I don't assume that I have a right to know anybody's private business/artistic thinking, so please regard that as a rhetorical question.

I thought that everybody's purpose in Ma3 was either to get in Gary's way, or to be the goal the way to whom was being got in... Frequently almost simultaneously.

I certainly wouldn't mind that. Given Sandra's current situation, it's hard to see how she'll ever be reintegrated into the main plot.

Thanks,

The audience "might" gear more female on this one, but we'll see.

Right, and it's really hard to go deeper on some characters without having readers go "Where's Gary? I want Gary? When is he gonna get laid again?!" ;)

She might, eventually, be reintegrated into the main ma3 plot, but since we have other things to worry about in regards to Ma3, it's best to have Sandra show up in her own comic.

Depending on how you handle Dillon as a gay man, you could gain a big LGBT following too. :)

I like Dillon. He kind of reminds me of the character Patrick Stewart played in Jeffrey...yeah, he's flamboyant, but at the same time, it feels a little like an act to hide his real self.

If you do decide to do a Sandra spinoff, maybe you should consider giving yourself a break and bring in Eisu as a permanent part of the team. He does those characters very well in my opinion.

Of course, that would bring up the problem of further complicating the team anagram. GiDaCaTS is already pretty long , and I doin't see where to add an E :p

Oh, for sure, if a Sandra strip gets going, it'll be with another artist. Eisu is our first pick.

My cynical reading is that, where Ma3 provides a fair amount of fanservice to straight male and gay female readers, this comic will guarantee some for straight females and gay males...

And it may just be that I can't find a way to like Dillon very much, but I just can't see him as deep. He seems too consistently ditsy and shallow.
