Special thanks to Jay for cleaning up my shitty grammer XD.

To do list: Darken all the pages, summaries, Edenworld wiki.

Speaking of brains, it’s actually a rarity to have both halves of your brain in your head. What I mean by this is that Machinas’ brains can exist in multiple places on the body. Lyron may have his brains in his head but Beo prolly has one of his brains in his back, and Terra has one in his chest. Because of this (and this applies to the Guardia too) you can suffer a nasty attack to your face and it doesn’t necessarily equate death.

I’m playing with the idea of making the baby Gouli on the side there the donate button. What do you guys think? Pass or fail?

Just today I came across a blog in Japan linking back to Edenworld Saga via Technotati. It’s nice to see Edenworld has some international appeal and a following abroad. What concerns me is a webcomic can’t be easily translate with a tool like Babel Fish. Perhaps it is time to make the dialog accessible to these types of translation tools.

Any thoughts or concerns on this process?

P.S. If there is anyone out there willing to translate this comic into Japanese or Spanish or French? If you have the time, give me an e-mail at ratbat001(at)Yahoo.com.

I have come to understand that a lot of the divine looked like animals such as the Marquis of the Underworld in the Goetia: The Lesser Key of Solomon . Hresvalgr (or Hresvelgr) actually originates from Norse myth and is a giant who often takes the form of a bird and lives near the top of the Yggdrasill. His name means ‘corpse eater” and I was heavily inspired to combine him with the God “Hitokotonushi” to maintain that sort of arboreal look that encombaces Exalts from Sargons.

Any way, I updated the Bio Gallery and I hope to start up the summaries this weekend. Please send me a shout out if you like the comic!

Edenworld spoof off Joe Canadian found here:

This is probably not the best thing to do, but I decided to put Valk and Ennesix on the same sheet of paper. It’s really too bad that Ennesix doesn’t play a larger role in the comic. It makes me laugh just thinking about how air-headed and happy he is!

New demi profile. Gouli the armordon. (not an important character but still oh so kyute)

New character biography added: Beowulf Jotun.

I might actually go back and illuminate the second panel, plus redraw the first. I think I drew it too confusingly.  Basically, the plants made of light on Lyron’s shoulder break off the muramite crystal wounds from earlier, so now Lyron can regenerate.

I went ahead and did the gradient thing on page 32.

I tried to dig up the previous version of Slepnyr that I had created but I think that pic fell victim to the deleting habits I’ve had for many years. Basically I’ll have to make a new design sheet for him, but even without it, I’m quite surprised I was able to really conceptualize him with just a silhouette and a head shot. More on that later…

The silhouette behind Lyron is Slepnyr, who is like Lyron’s anti-version. He’s the main bad guy in this story, but he doesn’t show up until much later (probably after the Edenworld story arc). The significance to this is, the “possible and likely” future that Hresvalgr shows Lyron depicts Slepnyr looking back at his would-be “good version”. But since this is the worst possible scenario, Jotunheim gets nuked and the Devil Mashina get to do whatever they please (much to the dismay of the regular Devils.)
