50th comic! ::bull horn::

For this strip, try to remember back to the last part of the slowest storyline ever. (click here to read it). Cotton Candy is trying to open her Cafe, but she needs someone to cut the ribbon at the ribbon cutting ceremony. Ki'ono offered to help, but not without first jerking CC around, which brings us to here:

News: Donator strip still forthcoming! You didn't miss it. :)

*As always, comments and feedback are very much appreciated. It's valuable for me to hear back about what you enjoy in a comic, from visuals to tech aspects to the joke itself and etc! If I were at the bank, I'd ask to withdraw comic comments over money.

	"I'm here to cut your ribbon." And suddenly, the concept of ribbon cutting takes on an entirely new, innuendo-based meaning, possibly one that causes a rash. And Amberlocks smells of fish (and probably liquor, and quite possibly fish liquor)! XD Very nice, dynamic body language in the last panel. Look out, Ki'ono! (Reply to this)(Thread)

"And suddenly, the concept of ribbon cutting takes on an entirely new, innuendo-based meaning"

::grins:: It's cool you picked up on that, because I tried to phrase it as suggestively as possible. Of course, Amberlocks could probably read a street sign and still sound suggestive.

"Very nice, dynamic body language in the last panel."

Thank you! :) I'm really pleased with how it ended up.

Thanks for your detailed comments, Minty. I look forward to them.

	Thanks Silver! I don't think you could keep a dog away from Amberlocks. She's just a bevy of scents. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Lol Ki'ono actually look nervous in that one. :) Great job! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Tee hee, fish. I like the expressions in the last panel. I think they're exactly right. And Ki'ono's pose reminds me of your sketch pony that's subtle AND elegant. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Oh man, Amberlocks...ewww fish smell! xD I love it The dog is so cute. I'd be terrified of Amberlocks showed up at my door and said, "I'm here to cut your ribbon." AGHHH. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Omigod, Amberlocks is Courtney Love, isn't she?! LMAO! That cracks me up that she smells like fish. :P I like the new look for Paris! It's nice to see a little more of her. ^_^ (Reply to this)(Thread)

	You have some kickass line quality, too---how do you create this artwork? If you could do this on paper, you might be a good animation inker. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Hahaha. I love the dog and his fishy thoughts. You drew him so cute and fluffy and confused. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I'm not going to read the other comments to find out how many people already commented about this, but I absolutely heart the dog-smells-fish detail. :D (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Poor Cottoncandy! She broke her leg in the last panel!!!! OH no! Just kidding! I love the expressions and body language...very very nice! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Ok, this was cute when I saw this earlier, but after your comment ala email it's FUCKING HILARIOUS!!! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Wow, 50 huh? Congrats and thank you!!! The fish thought bubble had me laughing pretty hard. :p (Reply to this)(Thread)

	CC is in a GREAT pose for the last panel. I almost wish Amberlocks had a top on. You can almost imagine one strap falling carelessly to the side. Haha. If you ever wanted to push the smell thing further, you could have flowers wilting as she goes past. BTW, I enjoy the fact that CC and Amberlocks are different pinks. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	random extra idea: I don't know if it would work in the comic very well, but I'd love to see either Paris or the Monkey chewing on an old manky Majesty... a la your "STFU Majesty" picture. ;) wuahaa (Reply to this)(Thread)

	...this is awesome. Just found this comic, totally going to watch it now. :3 (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Squee! at Paris, he's fluffier now! Poor baby, trying to figure out why Amberlocks smells like fish. I absolutely LOVE the last panel, esp. Cotton Candy. She must've been moving pretty dang fast as her necklace hasn't swung back! (At first I thought she pulled a gun on Ki'ono, then I realized they were his sunglasses. >.< ) (Reply to this)(Thread)

	The visuals are still nice but the jokes are kind of weak. But of course Amberlocks makes any comic strip 5 times funnier. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	ohhhh, i totally thought CC was holding a gun to ki'ono's head. XD (Reply to this)(Thread)
