(is a pune on may as in the month. i slay myself.)

Yeahh, so is rather amusing how the Parisian shadowcast for RHPS has to make do with rather less opportunity for punnage and line-subverting - they do loads using the subtitles and what you can expect by way of basic English from the audience, but is nothing like the constant ribbing of the show I saw in California - but instead are WAY into the simulated orgies and molesting the audience. Ze French, ey? so crey-crey and taquins.

Anyway. Sorry guys. I am le busy currently and GND is disrupted. I'll keep you posted. Meanwhile, lets all go "gasp" over at Roommates. Ashe is bringing the drama.

best,
Pika

I know that u get a lot of suggestions already for characters to put in your comic but maybe at some point if you have the time, of course you could put in Bartimaeus, who is by the way a kick ass djinn

Love your "Girls Next Door" comics! I'm also a fan of "Labyrinth" and I really like your drawing style.

Please, post some more comics for the GND!! Kisses!

I know you're a big fan of Layrinth, so I assume this isn't news to you, but I just discovered the music video for David Bowie's 'Underground':

[link]

it raised a few questions for me... this is clearly supposed to be Jeremy, the David Bowie-like singer that Sarah's biological mother is dating. the implication is that either Sarah's connection to Jareth is invading Jeremy's life as well, or that Jareth actually has some sort of connection with Jeremy already.

I don't want to go so far as to assume that Jareth has assumed Jeremy's identity or something, because that would just be too out there. but I was wondering if you've ever given any thought to whether Jeremy might be more than just the source of the visual Sarah chose when she dreamed Jareth. maybe he's something more?

any thoughts? :)

I believe you'll find some Bowie interviews around that time that imply this is actually sort of a stylized take on Jareth's origin story, as HE is lured Underground by the goblins in search of a king - or he got lost in the human world and forgot himself, possibly, and needs to be led back home.
I'd never tied it into the Jeremy angle myself... (besides I always assumed he was an actor too, and her mum's co-star, with whom the onscreen romance became real). Food for thought indeed.

hmm... if it's possible that Jareth was once lost in the human world and forgot himself (which i suppose is possible, given the current Roommates arc), is it possible that Jareth actually IS Jeremy? that he somehow created the image of himself in Sarah's imagination when he romanced her mother?

creepy, but kind of awesome.

Yeah. Thing is, in GND at least and for "my" Jareth, you have to work with the premise that the Labyrinth is real and the Goblin King is a Fae-ish entity with his own backstory and agenda beyond being Sarah's foil... the movie, to me, strongly hints at the whole ordeal being shaped and subconsciously controlled by Sarah, including the sexual/romantic temptation incarnate in her Jeremy-shaped antagonist. It's rather hard for me to reconcile both Jareth and Jeremy existing "for real", so I'm rather glossing over Jeremy's existence in-comic. I've seen a few fanfic authors deal with that doppelganger/mortal version/Jareth seducing two generations of Williams women stuff, mind you.
The "real" Goblin King Jareth, getting lost in the mortal realm, losing his memory to some extent and becoming Jeremy, then finding the connection through Linda to her daughter to use Sarah's imagination to reclaim himself as Goblin King - or Sarah, unawares, becomes the missing link that connects by some beautiful coincidence her acquaintance of RealWorld Jeremy and her fantasy of the Goblin King, which reminds him of who he is/could be... that's pretty far-out but fascinating, indeed.

Oh man, a friend recommended your comic to me and I spent all night and morning reading them. GREAT JOB!

As a girl who watched Labyrinth wa-a-a-a-ay too much as a child, this just made me happy. You got Sarah and Jareth down perfectly. <3

If you're an anime fan at all, I'd just like to say one thing... Fullmetal Alchemist's Riza Hawkeye and Avenger Hawkeye, best friends forever.

I'm surprised Scooby and the Gang haven't showed up for monster hunting yet, even if they are in the same league with Ash Ketchum on some levels...
