Fangirl or afraid of a cryptid? Details in the next page.
Oh no she’s (in)famous
This should be interesting
No, YOU’re the Portland snake girl!
Modest has a reputation now? Interesting 🙂
Did you go back to the smaller size comics? I kinda liked the bigger versions.
I’m experimenting with the size a little. Trying to find something that works well for browser and mobile.
The larger ones worked well when I had 7 plus, and currently on iPhone 11 Pro Max.
Thats good data. Thanks. I’ll probably switch back to that size.
You can make the page display at different sizes depending on what kind of device is being used to view it. If your site is built on WordPress, that functionality should be built in, I think.
Yeah, it is, but… my site is a mess right now, and unfortunately because of some trouble with the host I don’t have full access to fix problems. I’m hoping to resolve that soon, but in the meantime even simple stuff is out of my hands.
Her reputation precedes her. Also, there’s a typo in the third panel. You wrote “bad” when you meant to write “bag”.
Kind of difficult for Modest’s reputation to NOT precede her. She’s a fantasy creature living in an otherwise normal modern world, in the age of social media. Nor does she or her guardian make any effort to keep a low profile. I’d be surprised if she WASN’T a topic of conversation the world over.
Actually in this Earth there also exist superheroes, as evident in Ghost Kiss. Some are much weirder than a snake girl, e.g. a guy that shoots crabs from his crotch! It’s true that comic!Jake doesn’t try to hide Modest, but there’s plenty of other ‘topics of conversation’ around as well. She’s probably got an entry on Chimeric Mutants Wiki, but that’s about it.
Yeah, that was always my big excuse. She lives in a world that also has some weird stuff, so she’s not THAT strange. But its still never been addressed.
Aw, c’mon! We’re talking PORTLAND here! There’s probably dozens
Bad and Bag sound a lot like badge (or possible bedge) – which is why they got confused in the third panel.
“The Portland Snake Girl” Modest has achieved urban legend status.
No bad or bag, she is there to get Jake’s butt to con.
“Let me get your bad.”
That looks like typo.
Next strip:
Jake: The Portland Snake Girl?
Krystine: Yes! The one who has cobras for hair.
Modest: These aren’t cobras. You’re thinking of Harmony.
Krystine (embarrassed): I am so sorry! I didn’t mean to mix you two up. I hope that didn’t come off as racist.
Modest: That’s okay!
Jake: Wait, there are OTHER snake girls in portland?!?
Modest: Yeah. Where have you been?
They meet for donuts at a strip club every sunday.
Hopefully Krystine thinks it’s awesome cos-play and doesn’t start freaking out…
Modest’s fame (infamy?) precedes her!
Oh yeah I forgot that Modest isn’t exactly Normal
Normal? I’ve heard of that, actually quite a bit about that, but it’s still something I don’t really quite get.
No one is really, since it is a city in the middle of Illinois
rotfl!
“You got something against that, lady?”
Oh no! I binged too quickly and got all caught up!!
Anyways, thank you for making such a great webcomic! I look forward to seeing where the story goes from here! *flails*
I have a question for Modest! We know your favorite super hero is your OC SnakeLady, but who’s your favorite Magical Girl?
I’ll add that to the list for the next “Ask Medusa”
I know that feeling. I binged in 2 days.
Next, Jake spins off “Dallas Snake Girl”, “Miami Snake Girl”, and “NCIS Snake Girl”.
Franchise!
Ok time for stupid question: What does Jake do again? Why is he travelling to this Con? Why did he bring Modest?
We don’t really know what Jake does, other than that he’s an artist of some kind and he used to be a art teacher.
The reason for the trip to the con hasn’t been revealed yet.
Thanks Jake for taking the time to answer my questions, really appreciated.
Dude… YOU’RE JAKE! XD Wouldn’t it only made sense for the self-insert to have the same job as you? lol
It would be really complicated if comic Jake drew a comic about having a snake girl for a living.
Mostly, i don’t want to really focus on what Jake does. One of my rule sis that Jake’s never the focus of the comic.
Wouldn’t that basically just be him writing about his life?
Yeah
Monday: Yay, new page!
Tuesday: Can’t wait for tomorrow’s page!
Wednesday: Any minute now…
Thursday: Okay, so it’s a day late. No big deal.
Friday: (Still waiting for Wednesday’s page)
Sadly, I no longer update on Weds (for about 2 years now). I kept the sign up, mostly because I hope to return to a 3 day a week schedule eventually.
