Meanwhile Not Far Away on the Moon
Meanwhile Not Far Away on the Moon is a 542 page, year-long, stream-of-consciousness doodle, created for no greater reason than to keep my hands occupied while I edited the text of several novels (the first two Mrs. Quarterhorse books) by ear. I mention this here because I'd be embarrassed to show the resulting comic without a disclaimer! Please don't think of it as a finished work, it is barely a first-draft! The text is lumpy, the jokes are poorly timed, new characters appear on the fly without a thought to their appearance, the tone is inconsistent (at least at the beginning; it does eventually fall into a groove), and since I added at least a page a day regardless of inspiration, expect many uninspired pages. At least one page is downright inexplicable. A day best forgotten, most likely.
The first thirty pages or so are really bad. I don't recommend starting at the beginning!
The story picks up when Bunty arrives, further improves after she meets Aiiiegah, Queen of the Tarantulas, and gets steadily funnier as it goes on. I suggest just lazily scrolling up and down through the pages until something catches your eye, read a bit, scroll a bit, so on and so forth.
NOTE: The blurry-and-smudginess of many images is because the ink washes warped the paper which kept them from lying perfectly flat on the scanner.
