Would you look at the size of this comic? Its HUGE! lol, well, when I first started the comic, I said to myself that I wasn’t going to box myself into one size, a three panel comic every week. This isn’t a newspaper, I’m not bound by size restrictions, I can do what I want, or do what I need. In this case, there just isn’t enough space in three panels to tell the story. Heck, theres barely enough space in six! This comic plays on what I’ve talked about in my blog post from last week where I take delight in using my priestly skills in killing as many people as I can. Like the Priest call in BWL, which I did kill Vas with once, back when he was an Orc Warrior, or levitating everyone in ToC (except the Death Knights) before the floor falls out in the hopes that the DKs will turn on path of frost in time for someone to click off levitate. Same idea here! What can I say, I want to heal things to death, and its fun! As long as your victim doesn’t get TOO mad! I’ve payed for a few repair bills for my laughs. WORTH IT!
Its also a bit of a milestone, as this is the 10th comic. Its not much, but its huge to me. 10 comics! Wow! I’m pretty proud of myself! I’ve never done anything like this before, and it seems to be going well, I haven’t run out of ideas (yet) and I haven’t missed a deadline (yet!)
Also this week, its interesting to know that the Daily Quests comic It’s Better Not to Ask was linked on the official World of Warcraft Twitter! Again, I’m thrilled! I can’t believe that we’re finally getting our name out there, and it did happen quite quickly. I know I know, I really shouldn’t have bitched about it, and it should have given it more time, but you guys are great, and I appreciate every comment I get. It keeps me going, it keeps me wanting to make more. We still have lots of ideas too!
Lastly, I will be gone all of next week, I’m going to Orlando, Florida to do the tourist thing! Disney World, Epcot, Universal Studios, Kennedy Space Centre. So I might not be around to reply to comments, but Drew is still here, and will be monitoring the site. I also believe he is going to start blogging a bit on the site as well to add a bit more content to Daily Quests, so check back later next week for that! And if you all are wondering, I’ve already finished last weeks comic, so it won’t be late at all! ^_^ I also got a Spa Day today for finishing it early, of which I get to go to in just a few minutes there! Ahh, motivation!
The WoW tweet was how I found you :) Call me a latecomer, but I hadn’t seen you before, I’m rather glad they did tweet about you though, you went straight on my bookmark toolbar :)
keep up the awesome work ^_^

Thats awesome! I’m glad you found your way here! I know we got about 20k worth of traffic this last week because of that tweet! Nothing to sneeze at, thats for sure!
I feel so loved that you never tried to kill me!
Oh, I probably tried!
I now know what to look for in ToC…I float gently down like a leaf on the wind vs. rolling the dice with a crazy Death Knight!
Spa day! Face melt!
You are mean. I like it >:)
Hahahah that’s so fun, killing people! Too bad I don’t play any of those tricky classes. : <
Gratz on your 10th comic! Every milestone is STILL a milestone!
Hope you enjoy your vacation. Look forward to next weeks comic (that apparently you did last week??).
Lol, yep! Did it in one day too! Also, grats on being the 200th commenter! ~_^
I have to say, I know very, very little about Warcraft, but I absolutely love keeping up with this comic. The dynamic between the two comes out nicely in this one. Once again, well done!
Heh, I’m a mage that hates levitate for certain reasons… I always try to click it off during boss fights, and end up misclicking something like kings!
I love your style, it’s just so awesome :). Your work is outstanding! I look forward to seeing the next one :)!
Hey! Your going to be in my area soon! The weather is really nice right now so I hope you enjoy yourself!
Btw on a side note ive been reading the comic since post 1 . Keep going. I know your going to end up very popular. I[‘ve already shown you to all my friends :)
Woo! Awesome to hear the weather is good! Its not freezing where I am (yet! this is Canada!) but I want some nice warm weather! I love the sun, getting on the plane in 4 hours from now too! : D
I just wanted to say I think you did a great job with the pacing/panels. Sometimes I’ve read comics that, while the story for that particular page is fine, the pacing is so bad it’s hard to understand. (Not in DQ, though!) You really nailed this one, it’s great! :]
Wow, I”m so glad to hear that, because it was one of the things I was really worried about with this comic. Theres a lot going on, and its hard to get across just using still images, you need a certain amount, and you need to fit them in the whole thing! Its harder than it sounds sometimes! Thanks a lot for letting me know!
Very nice! Double-sized like those old Sunday specials! Congrats on the Warcraft Twitter mention, too! That’s awesome!
Too bad I never thought to try that one on Lus…
We had a priest that enjoyed healing as well. Then he got a “chopper”. He would invite random people in Dalaran to go for a ride, drive all over Dalaran, then the sewers then out the sewer pipe with a guildy wave goodbye ans they plummeted to their deaths. We would levitate down then rez them.
Most were good-natured about it.
Guild chat and ventrilo were howling with laughter.
Great artwork backed up with an absolutely wonderful sense of humor. Hope many more will come :)
