Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

It's no longer a sincere webcomic.

At the outset it was a cathartic, autobiographical sketch of the author. Now he's writing about something he can't genuinely claim to be a part of anymore. The most obvious symptom of this is is the complete failure to do anything with Marten.

Of note, on his recent page where he just drew people he saw at some event, I noted some sameface stuff going on, but not nearly as much as I'd expected. Why can't he vary the comic's characters like that?

So I know I said I was considering dropping this, but god bless its consistent M-F update schedule

And it's actually been a bit better after this timeskip. I also hope Jeff keeps sneaking in those alt-texts into the copyright line at the bottom, they're pretty great

I feel like Jeph almost always noticeably improves during the weeks/months following a depressive episode/event. Look at those angles and action shots.

Thanks Poui.

Today's alt text gave me a mild giggle fit and I cannot figure out why for the life of me.

I realized that was probably the goal of this entire arc once Bubbles said they had to replace her skin

AI plot is always the best part of QC

This arc was surprisingly good!

Jeph is definitely at his best when he writes AI arcs. It gives a chance for the cast to react and behave in-character rather than play parts in contrived interpersonal melodramas. In a way, I think it helps him write better because he's more focused on worldbuilding than dialogue.

The AI arcs probably seem the most sincere because they're the least forced. It gives him opportunity to use some agency and flex some world-building muscles.

All the melodrama and stuff almost feels like conflict for conflict's sake? Like "Oh, man. I know I'm writing a slice of life romcom, I should probably put in a little more strife. To really sell it."

I came for the characters, stayed for the storyline. And it keeps getting sidelined so he can have more characters mooping about. If it serves the story and helps build the narrative, fantastic. If not, eh. I forget it.
