This is a freaking hilarious strip! Go Piro!
June 2005 Archives
Well it seems that most of Scotland is gearing up for the G8 summit at the start of the July. A lot of people I know are planning to go and protest (or at least see what the whole thing is about), and one of them is actually going to have a wind turbine on display there (check out Renewable Devices).
As a public service broadcast, I've got some got some information from Scotrail about what they'll be doing to shift the large number of people expected and how their services will be affected...
Piro of MegaTokyo had a rant up recently about some stick that he recieved from fans of his web comic, who weren`t happy with the direction of the plot/storyline. Apparently some of his "fans" didn't think that a particular strip was very good, and in fact was very high and mighty, lording over the fans who could not read Japanese.
What a complete load of TOSH. I have to say it and this may offend some people but...the direction of the story belongs to the writer, not the audience. They may dislike the direction or feel that the creator has gone a bit squewif, and if they are really unhappy with that, well they can stop reading. Why should any creator be "required" to oblige his/her readers every time they whine?
I'm not saying that Piro has obliged them every time they whine, but my impression is that he's narked for a similar reason. Anyway I think the comic in question was very good, and for my part the not being able to read Japanese added to the frenetic-ness (is that a word??according to the spell checker no, but it is now!)
