Issue 6: Page 37
NEW INCENTIVE FOR TODAY, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 22.
PETE: Today’s update is an homage to our favorite board game. We were all busting up when Joe wrote this into the script, and hope you enjoy reading it as much as he enjoyed writing it.
INCENTIVE ART: I think Cassandra was listening to Wicked when she drew this one. Guess Diva will try defying gravity.

Clue! They’re the Clue weapons! Hehe. <3 Poor Virgil, he's getting too old for this stuff…
September 21st, 2010 at 10:21 am
Virgil if you get yourself killed all Clue style I’m going to be upset.
Same goes for you Cerby.

It was LOKI with the REVOLVER in the STUDY. I caught the Clue reference right away, and if there actually is a Professor Plum about to be introduced, that is hilarious. Poor Mr. Virgil. He’s probably already realized the tragic similarities between Cerby and Diva. Maybe it’ll inspire him to start a new training regimen that includes cookies as treats. …A training regimen for Diva that is.
Oh, and the floorboard direction seems to be switched in panels 1 and 2. In panel 1 you can clearly see that the items are perpendicular to the floorboards and then they’re parallel in the following panels.
@Incentive: Tia looks AWESOME. Like she’s about to rip some serious tracks in the pavement.

poor virgil. i can see tia rocking that rolling derby look & is cerby wearing socks?
September 21st, 2010 at 10:45 am
They’re her doggy gloves! To quote the Characters page “She’s [Cerby's] like Diva in every way, down to her widdle doggy gloves.” So basically, if Diva was a dog, she’d be a legit registered Heck Hound, but very dumb, drooling everywhere, loyal, and unable to properly help a situation. XD

Kudos on the clue reference! Awesome comic. LOVE IT!
September 21st, 2010 at 11:44 am
I like Virgil’s expression in the last panel. He has been steamrolled by ridiculousness, and can fight it no longer.
September 21st, 2010 at 12:01 pm
CLUE! Ah! My favorite board game! :D Of course, the only one missing is the knife ;) Which means it was Professor Plum with the knife in the study….(I suddenly feel like singing a song from Clue the musical)
And I’m still madly in love with the way you draw Cerby! Keep up the good work :)

The reference to the famous board game only clicked in the last panel for me, which made a double-take on the weapons all the more hilarious. Excellent!
The stacking of items in panel 4 looks a bit wrong though, and they look off-scale in 4 and 5 (that is, not so harmful as weapons)
September 21st, 2010 at 12:30 pm
Oddly enough, it wasn’t until this page that I even realized Cerby wore gloves… I’m glad I’m not the only one. XD That sort of thing wouldn’t fly with most dogs, but she’s special.
September 21st, 2010 at 12:41 pm
yeah i caught that the moment i saw them panel 3!
September 21st, 2010 at 1:09 pm
Wait… Why don’t Loki and Virgil have halos or devil horns???
September 21st, 2010 at 1:27 pm
LOL at Virgil’s homely Mr. Rogers-like expression in the last panel.
September 21st, 2010 at 1:53 pm
Because they are neither angels or demons.
September 21st, 2010 at 2:01 pm
Didn’t notice until this strip either.
September 21st, 2010 at 2:13 pm
…..i just remembered that cerby wears them. it’s been ALONG time ago that i noticed. but yea….
September 21st, 2010 at 2:16 pm
ok, i lawled here for a bit. i never was much good at clue myself but this was a nice break in the action. or is it a back and forth between Diva VS Loki the Hypno Bishie and Virgil?
September 21st, 2010 at 2:20 pm
Hehe, Cerby is my favorite :)
Hey, what happened to Ms Brinsons name on the side? She isn’t coming back to comment on the comic anymore?
September 21st, 2010 at 2:45 pm
Whenever her name’s not in the tags, it means she wasn’t apart of producing that page. And her name’s gone from the FAQ because she technically no longer works with Evil Diva anymore.
Though on that note, why doesn’t Holly get a little blurb to answer the “Who are you guys?” question. We haven’t interacted with her at all. …And we only call her Holly because HollywoodArtChick is too long.
September 21st, 2010 at 2:47 pm
Does this mean Colonel Mustard is with Miss Scarlet in the Conservatory?
September 21st, 2010 at 2:59 pm
Oh, thanks ^^ I thought Brinson would still come back to comment like she used to, but maybe not. It’s too bad her name isn’t in the FAQ anymore tho… she was a great artist
September 21st, 2010 at 7:24 pm
That made my day, MagicalMadge. BTW, Madge was my grandmother’s name. Always nice to hear when someone enjoys some aspect of the art. I love Clue, too.
September 21st, 2010 at 7:26 pm
Freakin’ awesome. I had fun drawing it. I think I relate best to Mr. Virgil for some reason. In fact, in all of my projects, I tend to get into the heads of the doddering old men best.
September 21st, 2010 at 7:27 pm
YES! That is exactly what I had in mind. Glad it came across!
September 21st, 2010 at 7:48 pm
Ah ha, i see you have posted now. welcome to the comments zone Hollywoodartchick. ^^
September 21st, 2010 at 7:49 pm
they are also known as Mr. And Mrs. B. ;-)
September 21st, 2010 at 11:46 pm
Ohhhh, you GOTTA be kidding me.
September 21st, 2010 at 11:54 pm
One word;
bwaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahaha! XD
Yaay Cerby!!
September 21st, 2010 at 11:56 pm
Oh yeah–artisticaly, I thought the candlestick added a nice color contrast to the pipe, wrench, revolver, rope…and the suit. Great color-work. Very subtle but powerful.
September 22nd, 2010 at 1:32 am
You can hardly say Virgil is doddering.
September 22nd, 2010 at 4:31 am
Lol, I just got the Clue reference. XD
September 22nd, 2010 at 12:00 pm
Madge has been my mom’s nickname for me since I don’t know when. You are a very good artist and you are great at expressing emotions. But my favorite is Cerby, hands down. :)
September 22nd, 2010 at 1:50 pm
Fits so well.
September 22nd, 2010 at 2:59 pm
heehee! Clue! I love things like that.
September 22nd, 2010 at 11:52 pm
*sings* Just you and I~~ defy~~ing gra-vi-ty! I love the 9-22 incentive so much ^^
September 23rd, 2010 at 4:20 am
I love the incentive. It’s very “Kiki’s Delivery Service.” Miyazaki ftw :D
September 23rd, 2010 at 5:20 am
Actually, the incentive reminds me of Kiki’s Delivery Service (it’s an anime movie). The style of it is very nice :)
September 23rd, 2010 at 9:37 pm
I love clue! XD and ditto on kiki’s delivery service.
September 25th, 2010 at 11:00 am
^^ …Did anyone else notice that?
