Christmas 2015: Part Three
Chapter: Season Six
If you’re saying to yourself “They look different than I remember…” Dallas Noble and Charles have come a long way since their first appearance. I have slowly aged Dallas over the years and to be honest, I always wanted to draw Charles this large but back in the day, I just didn’t know how to do it the right way. I like their looks a lot now.
HOVER-TEXT: Burritos and Red Bull. Man, I miss Red Bull somedays. I’ve been off the soda/energy drink addiction for months now.
O_o
Holy shit, Dallas got grown up while I wasn’t looking. She’s like all Uma Thurman-Pulp Fiction’ed out!
well we haven’t seen her since AFN (or Asshole fake nerd) ripped into her at the marathon game 2 years ago our time
Still, that’s one hell of a growth spurt.
What age is Dallas supposed to be at this point? She still looked pretty young back in the dungeon run when we last saw her.
Time is always a little vague in d20Monkey (by design) but I have slowly aged Dallas over the year. To put a fine point, she just turned 18.
That and your art style has changed 😛
1st Panel: “Notice of Termination of Contract”? What’s that all about?
A guess: Dallas can’t afford to keep a bodyguard/butler anymore because of the failure of her previous RPG title.
It’s likely fall out from when Dallas’ Dead Iron game failed to take off (That’s A Bargain!)… Possibly helped by some form of #GamerGate-type controversy started by Philip Dove (Dungeon Rune: Allegations).
Bit strange equating dove with journalistic integrity
It could also be Termination of Content. Like something she posted or contributed could have been removed.
Oh, boy this might get intense this now raises a question, how is Brett going to do this? The Santa way, or the Brett way? cause as of right now, im colored curious…
You’re saying that like he has to choose. Brett is Santa. Therefore the Brett way is technically the Santa way.
I was always of the belief that Denise ( that’s her real name, isn’t it?) either has an inheritance of some sort or made her fortune by other means as even the best game designers and authors out there rarely go higher that middle class and certainly not mansion level.
Yes. I do find it funny that, in a comic that has Santa Claus and shares a continuity with Zombie Roomie, I find Denise buying a mansion from RPG royalty checks incredulous. 🙂
Speaking of shared continuity, who else thinks it’d be cool to have D20M/ZR crossover where George meets Brett after Bretts Dad tells him about his last encounter with George?
😀
Ok, I’m smiling way to much over this suggestion.
As I recall, her real name is Darlene.
Ah, I stand corrected about her name.
Even though they shared of the character Mel, I’m not to sure that the Santas are the same. But that would be totally up to Brian and John if they did that.
I like to think of d20Monkey and Zombie Roomie being parallel dimensions now. There are similarities but things are different. Like Earth-1 and Earth-2 from the DC Comics multiverse.
Aaawwww….. 🙁
Brian, I have to admit I thought Dallas was a child prodigy in earlier strips. I do have to say that she looks much older than /just/ turned 18 to me in this strip, in fact my first thought was she looks forty-ish. Sorry Brian, love the strip dearly! *hides from angry commentors*
Sorry to let you down. It’s what she looks like.
