Added 1 new A* page:"Science" news first! I noticed in this LiveScience article that the Large Hadron Collider at CERN on the French/Swiss border has finally outstripped Fermilab (in Illinois, outside Chicago--I was in a car that sort of drove past it once, back in college :o) as the place where the most *intense* particle beams (beams having the most particles) have been smashed together, although it had already beaten Fermilab in terms of the highest *energy* collisions last year. But it didn't stop there! Now apparently certain channels (certainly the popular science press :p) are "abuzz" with a rumor that the oft-predicted and never seen "Higgs boson"--which is supposed to explain gravity and thus make all of particle physics' knottiest theories work out oh-so-nicely--had been seen! Or its decay, anyway. But it sounds like the rumors are quickly being discounted, so...just another day in science, I guess. ~~~~~~ You know them, you love them! Yes, it's more storyboards
Actually those are both attempts for the same panel, and I think I'm getting worse and worse at these because I count successive attempts at doodling a panel's layout by letters of the alphabet, ie the first is well nothing, the second is "b," the third is "c," etc, and this one went clear up to "g." :P These were like d and e, I dunno. I sort of liked the first one but in the end she looked too much like a soggy elf, and A* is just not that kind of comic. ~~~~~~ Speaking of which, this is where I remind you that a new page of my Sunday fairy tale comic, "The Princess and the Giant," came out last weekend, and a new one will go up this Sunday! Golly! Here's a graphical link to the latest page, but it isn't actually a preview of that page, 'cause that page didn't have a suitable drawing of the Princess on it. :P So I've just pulled this banner out of the ol' archives--clicking will still take you to the page that went up this past Sunday, though:
