    Quickdraw Blog. BANG!

    Heya folks! This will be a quick blog, more rapid update outta necessity than witty commentary, so i'll cut straight to the chase. I've got good and bad news. The good, in my opinion, outweight the bad! But you be the judge:

    The Good

    It Cuts Like a Knife; It Might Leave You Bleeding

    Story reviews are interesting because, sure, you can use them to know if a certain book will be the right one for you? But I feel theyโ€™re more useful when the review is in itself a tool to talk about storytelling in general. You review a book, but the book is a jumping-off point to discuss what it means to have good pacing; stuff like that.

    A Full Year of Only Mondays

    Good morning. This is, from my point of view, a comedy blog. From the point of view of my family and loved ones, it's a horror story.

    I'm so fucking back, baby. Hi, all. Did you miss me? I know I did.

Consider tipping, if you liked the comic. Sorry for the bother.

Anyway. Listen. I don't do waifus, I really don't. BUT IF I DID-

Wow that's alot of comic

You do waifus. One of us, one of us, etc.

Anyway, that was a nice comic! Fun to know that Smolder ships SunDance.

Yona is best.

Best what, you ask?

Yes, to whatever noun you added in your head there.

This is glorious. The Young Six overthrowing the government, aided by one of its own. I love it.

A tourniquet shaped like a noose

All tourniquets are just nooses for your arms. Or wrists. Or right above wherever they jab you. :pinkiecrazy:

Black glitter for formal occasions

Considering Glitter was two boxes above me I'm not quite sure how to take this...
:derpytongue2:

That's a heckton of comic. Excellent work.

Holy shit. Since I drew and wrote the patreon shoutouts out of order I never noticed this bit. Funny as it is, editing it now to 'black confetti'. Guess THAT'S why the word glitter was in my head while I wrote the poem?

Haha you don't need to do that, but if you want, that's your choice.

Sandbar is adorable. He'll definitely be the face of the proletariat uprising

I like that Gallus is throwing hands in #27.

I can't believe I'm thinking of increasing my patreon level specifically to get that poem each time.

I'm not entirely sure what just happened, but I think I enjoyed it very much indeed.

Outstanding characterization in everything from quips to body language. Seriously, the way Gallus goes from โ€œperching birdโ€ to โ€œlounging catโ€ is a lovely touch. To say nothing of my favorite transdimensional nerds. Thank you for this.

Youโ€™re not the only one.

They are all.
Perfect.

*reads pages 98-99*

Fine, be that way.

Man, I love the way Gallus so casually perches on Yona.

Everyone should ship Sundance

HEY I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS

Yona is only a catch in the sense that you might have to catch her if she falls the fuck over.

I was keeping a list of the numbers of the panels that I needed to comment, "This is the best panel ever!" about, but I ran out of paper.

Nuts-and-bolts instructions from SciTwi on how to Yak-smash corrupt oligarchies was worth the price of admission alone.

These are always a treat. Also Yona dresses as Sunset, Sandbar as Cadence? Or the reverse?

Phenomenal work as always, Aragon. Absolutely astounding art and writing from top to bottom. Your body positioning and eye tracking are particularly solid today, too. <3

I was not prepared for what I was getting into when I started scrolling, but I will not complain that you kept me up far past when I planned on going to bed.

this is perfect, thank you

Dude, your comedy is frustratingly good. It's the opposite of bad comedy. With a bad comedy, there's only so many ways to say 'That's not funny'. Here, I can't come up with anything clever to say because it's TOO funny that I could only just repost panels I really like. Which is all of them.

I loved everything in this comic. Especially the intro boxes.

Dude, just where can I view these in an archive? Need to find a spot where I can browse through all these strips you do!

Stole the Orient Express dressed in gold;
Criminal superconductor

Yes, but my 'I's' are still dotted with hearts.

so there's that...:twilightsmile:

I love the way your comics blend thoughtful musing with outright lunacy, very refreshing.

Saving links to the first editors note to send to my suspiciously large number of friends who like dragons and are eggs.

Honestly I stopped watching the show right before the young six became a thing and you might single-handedly be convincing me to go back and watch those seasons just because I love how you write them so much.

They're on my userpage! If you check it on desktop mode -- so not on phones unless you tick that box in your settings -- it should be at the very top.

You were specifically brought up by name in my server when this comic went up for the patreons, actually. Glad to see it was indeed to your tastes!

I have literally never seen anyone be so utterly wrong about anything in my life, and I draw comics about politics on Twitter. Yona is the platonic ideal of a character in every way, shape, or form, damn it.

This is utterly amazing.

Panel 37 in particular feels very memeable to me.

Love what you're doing with the artwork. Gets better every time. And the writing is of course a joy, but I expect nothing else at this point.

I think I scared my cat several times considering how loud I was laughing...

Aragon is easily my fave TED Talk series

I give it three weeks before he starts taking non-explicit commissions for a certain six-way kiss and I have to log off now for reasons

THIS IS A TOTAL BANGER DUDE GREAT JOB! The group dynamic the student 6 have in your comics is top notch. :twilightsmile:

Question, does anyone know if they keep a gallery of these comics? Cause everytime one of these pops up in journal entries, I'm immediately entertained. I would like more please.

I don't have time for five girlfriends! Give me a straight answer! Are we in love or not?!

Dude, she's alking for a straight answer, but that's literally the gayest thing I've heard.

"Dear Princess Celestia:

Cornflakes.

Cornflakes.

Cornflakes Cornflakes Cornflakes Cornflakes Cornflakes CORNFLAKES Cornflakes.

Oh, right...C-O-R-N-F-L-A-K-E-S

Sincerely,

---Smolder."


"Monopoly?"
*sigh* "Yes"

How on Earth do you come up with all of this?

Even the epithets you give your Patreons are incredible!

Its on his userpage.

But seriously:

You won't

No you
Won't fool
The children of the revolution
(We are...)
Freedom
Beauty
Truth
And Love

I adore your comics

Finally got around to reading this. It's great! Loved Cadance's excitement at the situation, and the jump scare that is her first appearance. Student Six all look and were written very well. Funny that Sunset was literally just handed her goal from the first EQG movie, of bringing an army of brainwashed teens into Equestria.

This was.... A masterpiece. You have such a way with comedy and story, I don't even know how to describe it! Each thread was introduced and brought back with perfect timing. I love it so much :fluttershbad:

This is great, beyond quality.

It's amazing how these consistently get better and better every time! ๐Ÿ˜

I think these introduction panels are one of my absolute favourite staples of these comics!

I feel like the characterizations in these commics are slowly getting more consistent, as well, which is really cool!!! It's really starting to feel like we're seeing the same SciTwi and Sunset in each ot these comics!
