Ooh! Ooh! Finally!

Um...

Oh, yeah! How'd he get started making comics and what helped him get to the level he is today?

How'd you come up with the concept of Domnic Deegan?

Which character do you see yourself being most like?

Is Sparks Based off a real Cat?

Why'd you give Luna Tusks?

If Deegan was turned into a movie who would you want in the roles and who would you want to direct?

How far ahead do you plan Dominic Deegan? Do you just plan out the magor plot points, have the whole next story arch or few planned out, or do you have all of Dominic Deegan already planned out? Also, do you have a speific ending in mind for Dominic Deegan?

Well my question for Citrus Kennedy Biscuit Jones III is that in the archives of the comic there was a whole bunch of previews of what was going to happen. How many of them are you going to do or not do?

And what did you want to be when you were growing up? (ie.: as a kid I wanted to be a Ballerina or an Astronaut)

Some questions for Mookie:

1) Were you influenced by GB Trudeau, or are the slight smilarities in art nuances a coincidence? If you were influenced by him, what about him inspired you the most?

2) Where/how did you develop your pen-chant for puns? Your affair with alliteration?

3) Your storylines seem to carry subtle yet consistent idealistic moral undertones -- e.g., doing the 'right thing' always seems to pay off in the DD universe. Is this intentional, and if so, what is your motive/reasoning behind this approach, as a storyteller?

4) For all the idealism, you also seem to be a proponent for Balance. An excellent example: in the beginning, Gregory was cripple, and 'not long' after he was completely healed, Dominic lost a leg. Are examples like this balance always premeditated, or do they just 'kinda happen'?

5) You seem to be attending a lot of conventions on a regular basis; what do you enjoy most about them? What do you enjoy the least?

6) Of all the possible deformities to inflict on the kind-hearted Luna, you settled on orc-like tusks. What other possibilities had you pondered before finalizing her design, and why did you finally choose choppers?

7) If you could be a pirate, what would be your pirate name?

you are a into comics so if there was one cartoon/comic hero/villian that you would fight with or against who and why?

if you could do one thing that you have never done what would it be?

so in short:

SILLY SAKURA inquires which HEROIC HERO or VISVIOUS VILLIAN would you CREATE CHAOS with, and any ABSURD ADVENTURES that you would RELISH the RISK of PLEASENTLY PARTAKE in?

thank god for thesaurus.com :P

one more thing: any chance of more flash on newgrounds? the stuff you have on there is awesome! and any chance of it popping up in the comic?(ie. the bard, he was cool XP)

My question for Mookie:

You've shown us White Mages, Infernomancers, various kinds of Elementalists, and Seers; do you plan to introduce any other kinds of magic-users in Dominic Deegan?

(And if you already have introduced ones that I didn't mention in the list, I just overlooked them.)

Man, that was rockin! I ask the same question... (if that gives it any more bering)

Also: What genre of music do you find yourself listening to most often, most recently?
HAHAHAH! I have musics!
