Example Strip: Hard to pick, it's more story than one-offs. Start at the [beginning].

: AlexChurchill suggests [Elves are supposed to be beautiful].

The story is... slightly on the easy/cliche/no surprises here side, but the art is cute and it's easy to flip through.

It is rather nice "easy reading", isn't it? And very good full-colour art. --AC

I liked it. And I thought it was titled 'Inverloch' - though that's less wikiable. --Vitenka

: The website seems to use both names. From URLs and titlebars, AC hypothesises I think that /TheSeraphInn is to Inverloch what ToothyCat is to PhoenixFeathers. --AC

One slight problem whilst re-reading the archive too quickly - I misread his horns as a SweatDrop every time he stand side on. --Vitenka

: Volume 1 (chapters 1-5) is necessary backstory, background and setup. Volume 2 introduces some great recurring characters and has some diverse and impressive settings. Volume 3 has only just started (WikiNow late June 2005), so too early to say much about it. But AlexChurchill is very much looking forward to seeing the way that characters *cough*, *cough* and *cough* interact :)

It's very pretty! And it has elves and, like, characters and plot and stuff. --Requiem

I described the latest character to be introduced to Nataku and she asked if she was a MarySue. I initially denied it, thinking that others in the series would better fit the description, but then I realised... Every main character in this story is a MarySue *twitchtwitch* --K

You must be using a very different definition, there. They're all very simple characters, true - but then the whole thing is reading more like a childrens story or (horrors) a comic than your typical webcomic. Each of the characters has a major flaw - I'd say they're a typical 'childrens hero' team. The naive young outcast hero with a special item, the protective one with a mysterious past, the rogue - and now the SugarRush? one. And unless the comic is being written by a triumvurate I don't see how they could all be MarySue. --Vitenka

: It's obviously a roleplaying party. The characters are all designed as Sues. The world is such that none of them can act like it. --Requiem

Makes up for spectacularly good art with spectacularly clichéd plot and some fairly peculiar character designs (best thief-catcher ever has a two-inch skirt and a pink dagger as her heaviest weapon) --K *feeling grouchy*

Kazuhiko's note to self: You've read up to [here (060330)], but start [here] when you want to continue (skipping the pokemon fight)...
