Motivated by "the Eye of the Wolf", and by a post on the forum a couple weeks ago asking about other Eberron comics, I've decided to start my own Eberron comic series.
I'm starting with a few stories about our beloved Jaela. I'm not sure how much time I'll have to work on this series but I'll give it a best shot.
Here's the character intro and I'll put up the first story shortly.

Comments and suggestions are welcome. I'd also appreciate any stories ideas you guys have. I'll make sure your name appears on that story :D

Thank you and enjoy.

...

I see what you're doing.

You named yourself Thaliost, thinking we would return it to you Aundarians. Well guess what? YOU AIN'T GONNA GET THALIOST BACK, YOU GOT THAT?!?

...

Nice drawings btw. Epic fail if I tried to do it. I actually haven't seen a Eberron web comic in quite some time, so by all means!

How often do you plan on updating?

Hi Scrino and Joni, thank you for the comments. I'm trying to update once every two weeks, but it may turn out to be more or less frequent. I'll see if I can update this post also when I update the website, so you'll always know when there's something new there ;)

And btw, Thaliost is one of my favorite cities in Eberron. I wish there will be a "City of Thaliost" someday. :D

What most people don't realize is that Sharn is not the largest city, population wise, in Eberron. That title belongs to Durat Tal. :D

Once every two weeks? That dampers my enthusiasm a bit...
Then again, I'm not privy to your creative process or plans.

B-Pen takes his time too...

I've just posted the first episode.

I know two weeks is a little too long, but I'll try to make it a little shorter. See how my work goes.;)

Enjoy, and comments are very welcome.

Have you thought about trying a once a week schedule?

Well, as it turns out, it takes me like two half-days to finish one episode. Given the truth that I may have to put my weekend time to *work* *work* at times, although I might be able to update once per week, I'd rather make it a surprise than a promise. ;)

Things may be better after two months when, supposedly, my current project comes to an end...

Now, who wants to add Cardinal Krozen to the Memetic Molester article? IMAGE(http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/4239/thatsmileyto4.gif)

Yeah I know... I couldn't get the link to work right.. whatever. The point is somebody got the joke.

Hmmm... Try right clicking. There should be an option of copying the images URL directly.

A while ago I had a vague idea of making a general Eberron gag-comic.

It would have been called "Eberroff", after the April Fool's forum renaming from a while back.

Unfortunately it was only the vaguest of ideas that only came with one vague gag.
I suspect it would have ended up like The Princess Planet if I'd had more gag ideas.

Also unfortunately my drawings have been known to make grown men weep and to curdle the milk of dogs living nearby (to say nothing of my puns...) so the art would have been a problem there.

Though maybe it would be nice to start a thread for people to post Ebberon comics. Though I think the Mods would want that in the art forum...

Yeah, that's what I did. I think it is just where I got the image from. Didn't seem to work even though I did things correctly. Ah well. Like I said, at least the gag was posted by someone else who could get the thing to work. Why this one didn't I don't know I've posted dozens of pictures over the years.

Hmmm... It is strange. It doesn't work for me either...

Secret tech-sourcery?

I was thinking poor web encoding or something, but we'll go with your theory.

Hey guys, thanks a lot for the replies. I've posted the second episode. It's ten days and I figure it's not so bad. ;) Hope you guys could keep me informed of what you think about it. I'll really appreciate it.

I don't know much about the pedobear btw, any details?

It's a bit early to pass judgment just yet, but this could be an enjoyable light-parody comic. And Jaela is awfully cute. ^_^

One thing that really bugs me is the placing of the speech bubbles in the second comic. It doesn't scan well when you read left to right.

I didn't notice it to be honest, and I'll pay more attention to the bubbles. Thank you very much for mentioning that. ;)
