New novel

I won't be around much today--in fact I'm heading out in about 10 minutes for the rest of the day. Enjoy the new novel, y'all. If anybody has any questions for Ryan Odagawa, go ahead and list them here and I'll ask him when I get home tonight. Have a great day! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:44, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

• Can we confirm that "Crash" is the jock who tripped Ren in episode 1? --Ted C 12:07, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
  • Yes. Ryan told me that Crash is the same jock that tripped Ren. He will be getting a real name sometime in the next two issues. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:51, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
• What cars did you model in the scene of the school parking lot? Do you find auto's harder to draw than other backgrounds or people? Was that the biggest challenge for this section? There were a lot of new characters introduced for this section; was that a time challenge?--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:26, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
  • From Ryan Odagawa: "I used the Pontiac Solstice, because that's my friend's car and my Scion Tc. Funny thing is the Solstice is the exact same car as Jazz from the Transformers movie." "Biggest challenge was to get picture reference of my friends, who live all around and a few that live in Florida. I had to use their webcam and print screen on my computer." -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 16:56, 4 July 2007 (EDT)
• Personally, I want to know if the Asian rumor guy is him. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:31, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
  • It's not. But, "I drew myself along with my friends on page 1 of Story 1, standing at the lockers." -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 16:56, 4 July 2007 (EDT)

Screencaps

I gotta run, but I just noticed that the main image might need some work. I'm not opposed to the choice of image (though it's not my favorite--I like to avoid cutting off text boxes when possible), it's just that it's not uploaded over Image:Gn betty p2.jpg, which I linked on the site last night. We'll probably have to upload over Image:Gn betty p2.jpg, and then either delete Image:Betty2cap.JPG or just use it somewhere else. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:56, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

Timeline

Part 1 listed this series of graphic novels as occuring "not long ago". I would assume 1990's or later, but I haven't noticed any evidence to narrow it down.--MiamiVolts (talk) 22:19, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

• I doubt I'll get a straight answer, but I'll ask Ryan O. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:39, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
  • Maybe you can get him to tell you what year model those cars are from. ;)--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:48, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
  • From Ryan Odagawa: "I have no idea when it takes place. I assume not very long ago, well, based on what happens in the last story." -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 16:56, 4 July 2007 (EDT)

Let me guess... I can see the plot now...

Here's my prediction...

Part 3, the jocks sought revenge on Ren, and somehow accidentally killed him. Betty vows revenge.

Part 4, Betty sought revenge, big incident, brought her to attention of Primatech, and took new name of Candice.

--Kschang 16:27, 4 July 2007 (EDT)

• Fixed the name (should be Candice with an 'i' according to on-screen credits). I think that there's at least two other ways it could go if Betty is with/near Ren when they attack him:

1) She tries to help, but only ends up making things worse. Ren ends up dead and Betty ends up in the hospital, when her dad, Mr. Linderman, walks in and tells her everything is going to be okay...

2) She tries to help and manages to scare away the jocks, but Ren and possibly others discover her power. Ren ends up dispising Betty, and the principal expells her and Ren. She goes home to tell her dad what happened. Then we find out that it's Mr. Linderman and he tells her everything is going to be alright...--MiamiVolts (talk) 18:37, 4 July 2007 (EDT)

• Too bad if Thompson is actually her father...--Unfalln 00:08, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
  • Eh, that could work too. Doesn't really matter now that both Linderman and Thompson are both dead.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:11, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
    • But when you consider that Eric Roberts has a bit of a Petrelli jaw, it could have more serious implications. --Unfalln 02:58, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
