90 – Friendship
What a week, eh? For anyone expecting to see a political themed comic today – clearly you don’t know me that well 😉 But I just have to say… “WOOO! YEAH!” and I’ll leave it at that.
Just so you know, I’ve now finally responded to the comments on Monday’s strip.
And don’t forget: If you’re a member of Facebook, become a fan of Imy! And, if you’re a member of Webcomics Inc. join the ‘Imy’ group page.
Nice job drawing the younger Imy – and hey 10 more to 100!
I swear that’s how my marriage started.
Nice comic. *CoughShouldaBeenPoliticalThemedCough* (sorry, political junky. I’m still overwhelmed by it all.) With my being politically cahrged and all I really wish I wasn’t in a “comic snag” so I could comment on it all. :/
Young Imy should have had a small version of the “rock” t-shirt, and technically, brown hair (even though you changed the hair color ro differentiate between you and Imy, she still started with brown hair.)
And I am going to make sure not to ask about websinthe’s marriage… 😛
Ask away, the hair pulling and fighting has stopped now 😀
Lovely as always, Irma. Imy just has this charm that I love so much. I can’t think of another webcomic quite like it.
Tom – Thanks! I know! Just 5 weeks! I can’t believe it!
websinthe – Now THAT’S a story I’d like to hear 😉
Doug – Actually, no, she should definitely NOT have brown hair. Imy has red hair. Sure, the strip started with a brunette, but I changed the character to having red hair. She didn’t dye her hair, she just IS a redhead. And therefore, as a redhead, she would have been a redhead as a child as well. In addition, it wouldn’t make any sense to readers to see her with brown hair as a child. Especially the new readers.
And also, it wouldn’t be right for her to wear the “Rock” t-shirt as a child either, since in strip #24 Kat reveals that Imy has had the “Rock” t-shirt since she was 16.
Brock – Awww shucks Brock. Thanks SO much 😀
hitting someone with a shovel is how you make friends?
*picks up shovel and gives a few test swings*
i’m off to go make friends now.
Lots of rocker shirts have stars on them – I have an REM shirt with a star on the front.
I like how you have young Imy’s expression in panel 3 be the exact (mirror) of current Imy in 4.
Who’s the hippy in 4 eyeballing Jay’s woman? Did he buy the neon green shots?
That, is brilliant.
My Gawd!!! The guy in panel 4 looks JUST like T!!!! LMFAO
@Irma: 1) The “rock” shirt was simply “that’d be kinda funny” thing. 2) I think of a lot of things in continuity so I really get a brain cramp thinking that Imy is a natural redhead as kid, but a natural brunette at the beginning of the strip. >.>;
Of course, this can cause some type of of
@Trent: That’s Ben, a friend of Imy and Jay. Jay is in his band.Now if he tried moving in on Imy, that COULD get interesting…
I see Kat’s favorite color hasnt’ changed.
Is Imy unique or is this how girls make friends. I know men will never understand women, but this might help a smidge.
HAHA – nice…
I dont recall hitting any of my friends over the head so this must be just an Imy thing! 😉
Doug – thanks for the Ben lowdown – I didn’t recognize without his leopard patterned pants and teased hair.
tyler – You mean you’ve been doing it wrong all these years? Tsk tsk!
Trent – I had a rock shirt with a star on the front too. That’s where I got the idea. And yeah, like Doug said, that’s Ben! He’s only been in that form for the first 2 strips he was in. (#52 & #53). But I’m not surprised that you only remember him dressed up for is hair metal band 🙂
elmindreda – Ha, thanks!!!
Luna – Hey you’re right!! Tell T he’s been reincarnated as “Ben” in my comic 😉
Doug But that’s just the thing. The red hair keeps it within the continuity of the strip. You can look at it like this. I’m telling you a story but I “accidentally” told you at the beginning that she had brown hair. Later on I realized my mistake and said “whoops! she has red hair, not brown.” Meaning she’s had red hair all this time. Meaning she would have red hair as a child. Putting her with brown hair as a child would have broken that continuity.
me! Well… I will admit that I never made friends this way. So I think this is unique to Imy 😉
Teresa – hehe that’s what I think too!
Been there, but it took a whole other direction for me. I got sand thrown into my mouth by another kid. Kinda wish she’d opted for the “let’s be friends” rather than “let me bully you for the following six-seven years, because I can’t cope with you learning stuff quicker than me”. Or whatever her problem was.
Childhood just is crappy somethimes, ya know? Sigh.
You mean, Imy’s hitting on a girl in GRADE SCHOOL? OUTRAGEOUS! 😀
