    Montage time baby!

    First post? coolness.

  2. Troy

    The look on Dan’s face in the last panel is hilarious.
    also,…Second.

  3. Hunnybee

    Gotta love the montage. Also, Daniel’s shirt is brilliant and appropriate. :P

  4. Justin

    The hours approaching, just give it your best
    You’ve got to reach your prime.
    That’s when you need to put yourself to the test,
    And show us a passage of time,
    We’re gonna need a montage (montage)
    Oh it takes a montage (montage)

    Show a lot of things happing at once,
    Remind everyone of what’s going on (what’s going on?)
    And with every shot you show a little improvement
    To show it all would take to long
    That’s called a montage (montage)
    Oh we want montage (montage)

    And anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro,
    You need a montage (montage)
    Even Rocky had a montage (montage)

    (Montage…montage)

    Anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro,
    You need a montage (montage)
    Oh it takes a montage (montage)

    Always fade out in a montage,
    If you fade out, it seem like more time
    Has passed in a montage,
    Montage

    OhPleaseOhPleaseOhPlease DON’T have him give Alex BAD advice on how to “move the relationship along!” I really hate it when comics do that with one character thinking he knows everything and the other being gullible enough to believe it. Though this is not quite that, I would really appreciate it if you don’t make it so.

    • Ralfil

      Oh wait, I just realized you said there’d be a montage tomorrow. Phew, that means my fears are averted and the last line on this page isn’t really agrivating, only ironic and funny.

      • Arvamas

        Well, even if Dan did give him advice on how to move the relationship along, it would be true to life.

    • gbfluteman

      You always notice in movies how it’s the nerdy guy who can’t get a girl to save his life who’s the one dishing out the advice on how to get one? Maybe it’s just me, but that’s USUALLY not true to life. Then, there are those of us out there who do give out advice- but that’s only so that you learn from our mistakes!! lol

      • TekServer

        Yeah, but that doesn’t necessarily apply to Dan. He is in the process of hooking up with Nicole, after all …

        ;)

  6. LazerWulf

    And the Understatement-Of-The-Year award goes to… Daniel Carter!

    • TekServer

      Ha!

      I never noticed before (or if I did, I forgot) that Dan’s full name is a composite of two of my all-time favorite TV characters: Doctor Daniel Jackson and Colonel Samantha Carter.

      Geez, no wonder he’s so smart!

      ;)

      • alexander carter

        i absolutely love the Stargate Series, and Colonel Samantha Carter, and Dr. Elisabeth Weir from Stargate Atlantis

        • Sum Reader/Fan

          I forget what I usually put as my name.

          GO STARGATE!!!

          and honors to Alex’s crazy facial expressions of pure cluelessness.

  7. RAR METAL

    Dan’s like… Mwahahahahha… I now know something that Alex doesn’t… again! I can mess him up for good… And then my Dreamland friend, good old Nicodemus… CAN TAKE OVER MOST OF THE EARTH!!! [except Japan. They've got anti-dragon defence measures.]

  8. INTP

    Gratuitous sex scene between alex and nastajia.. go! now!

    • rgirls

      Please … I would really like to continue to allow my 10-year-old to read this comic!!!

    • MandoWarrior

      No thank you…it’s very nice to have a clean, family-friendly comic that I can show to my younger sisters, thank you very much.

      • gbfluteman

        Amen to both of the previous comments on this. I am sick and tired of all the trash that this world has to offer. It doesn’t work, nor does it help, so why would I want more of it? Isn’t that the definition of insanity (you know, thinking you can keep doing the same thing and expecting different results)?

        • INTP

          to do the same thing is to repress sexuality, like we’ve been doing as a species for thousands of years, leading to myriad psychological problems..

    • technotreegrass

      That would be nice, but we’re never getting it.

      • TekServer

        Oh, I have little doubt there’s some rule-34 or rule-35 fan-art out there somewhere (unofficial, of course), but it’ll never make it to this site. And that’s a good thing …

        8)

        • Arvamas

          Now I am actually curious LOL. Darn you Tek Server :P

          • TekServer

            Well, good luck. If you find it, don’t bring it here, of course.

            :mrgreen:

    • bmonk

      Scott would never let it happen–this is a PG strip. He has kids too.

      • Random

        Thank goodness!

  9. S.K.

    I am a 10-year old

  10. kittin

    love the page. love the look on Dan’s face. It says it all. Thank you for all your hard work scott. I really like that I can let my children read this with out worring about what they may read or see.

    • Mystic Amri

      I second that! Of course my toddler can’t read yet, but he really likes the pictures. I love that it is something the whole family could enjoy without so much of the adult humor found in a lot of “kids” media these days. You have a wonderful balance. The style you use.. the colors and soft textures… I love it the more and more it goes on. This is definitely one of those books that should be treasured for generations.

      This page.. Dan isn’t the only one with awesome facial expressions. They are so genuine and honest.

  11. ChristineA

    Yes, definitely understatement of the year… and lookin’ forward to the montage. :D *cues up Eye of the Tiger….* lol!!

  12. AstralFire

    I think this is possibly the most dense moment of Alex’s entire life. Which is saying something.

  13. Draclore

    So Alex, how was that brick that hit you! Took you long enough (no telling how much longer he would have been wondering what that feeling was if not for Dan!).

    • TekServer


      I can’t fight this feeling any longer.
      And yet I’m still afraid to let it flow.
      What started out as friendship,
      Has grown stronger.
      I only wish I had the strength to let it show.

      I tell myself that I can’t hold OUT forever.
      I said there is no reason for my fear.
      Cause I feel so secure when we’re together.
      You give my life direction,
      You make everything so clear.

      And even as I WANDER,
      I’m keeping you in sight.
      You’re a candle in the window,
      On a cold, dark winter’s night.
      And I’m getting closer than I ever THOUGHT I MIGHT.

      And I can’t fight this feeling anymore.
      I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for.
      It’s time to bring this ship into the shore,
      And throw away the oars, forever.

      Cause I can’t fight this feeling anymore.
      I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for.
      And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
      Come crashing through your door,
      Baby, I can’t fight this feeling anymore.

      My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you.
      I’ve been running round in circles in my mind.
      And it always seems that I’m following you, girl,
      Cause you take me to the places,
      That alone I’d never find.

      And even as I wander,
      I’m keeping you in sight.
      You’re a candle in the wind,
      On a cold, dark winter’s night.
      And I’m getting closer than I ever thought I might.

      And I can’t fight this feeling anymore.
      I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for.
      It’s time to bring this ship into the shore,
      And throw away the oars, forever.

      Cause I can’t fight this feeling anymore.
      I’ve forgotten what I started fighting for.
      And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
      Come crashing through your door,
      Baby, I can’t fight this feeling anymore.”

      :mrgreen:

  14. TekServer

    Great comic as always, Scott!

    You’ve got a die hard fan here in the Florida panhandle, whose currently hunkering down and bracing for a late season hurricane!

  15. Kimberly

    hmm tina seems to come to mind.
    Whats Love got to do Got to do with it?
    Whats Love,? but a secondhand emotion.
    whats love got to do got to do with it?
    who needs a heart?
    when a heart can be broken.

    then again Huey lewis its Power Of love, hopefuly will prevail hehe
    time to update the Jukebox!

    • gbfluteman

      Steven Curtis Chapman’s “I Will Be Here” comes to mind considering Alex’s promise to never leave her again. So does his song, “It’s All About Love”, though I don’t like that one as much.

  16. alexander carter

    i second kimberly, on that !!!!

  17. the battousai

    scott, any chance you will put eye of the tiger on the jukebox

  18. sisgood

    Ah love… the most enjoyable, and most dangerous game on the planet.
    Good luck Alex… you shall need it.

  19. JurgenS

    heheheh..I love the flummoxed look on our hero’s face when his brother states he’s in love..

  20. Random

    “Interesting.” like the MONTAGE??? Lol. I can’t wait to see the training stuff and how Alex will improve in his dragon slaying skills.

    What is love?
    Baby don’t hurt me,
    Don’t hurt me, no more.
    (head bang! :D )

    • Jalule

      You, my random fellow, have definitely made my day. :D (cracks open laughing)

      • Jalule

        Come to think of it, he reallly should say that to her. We’re talking about a girl than can shoot magical arrows at will. You don’t wanna make her frown. :|

        :P

  21. Sahara

    haahahahah i love it! ooohhh montage baby! ooohhh i love samantha carter!!!

  22. Jalule

    Huey Lewis is a MUST!!! Please do consider in a near future making another JukeBox playlist (do they have radio over Dreamland? Could they, somehow? Because that would be soooo cool).

    Just thought of something really funny: if Nastajia could cross over to AwakeTime Earth, and they went out on a date, would she be offended if Alex put Barry White or Luther Vandross for mood settler?
    Do elves understand White?
    :P

    [P.s.: The biting-my-lip-what-the-heck-is-going-on look is just PRICELESS!!!]
