Agreed. Aggie in particular looks quite different from how Gis last drew her. (Not better or worse, just different.) It's in the eyes. And while Penny looks closer to how Gis last drew her, Kamino Neko's right in that she does look rather like DiDi. With (somewhat) smaller boobs. Lovely work, Ms. Lagacé. ♥


Aggie rather reminds me of Brooke from EC for some reason.
I don't see the Penny/Didi thing though. If I had to make a comparison, Senna would be closer, least facially and physically anyway.
Hair and skin tone are obviously different.

Aw, i've missed Gis' take on the girls. All this nostalgia just might make me tear up.

If the new comic is going to be about "alternate" sexuality, the name seems obvious to me.

ALT.

*insanely high-pitched girly squeal* OMG IT'S GIS ASFHDAFDHGSAFDHS AAHHHH <3 <3 <3
Even though I follow Ma3, MC, and EC, I didn't notice quite how much her style had changed until I saw this drawing of P&A.

Not to offend Jason, I'm just a huge Gisele fangirl. ._.

So Tharqa shows up in a leopard print dress and the forums are full of people talking about how disgusting and skanky leopard print dresses are; Penny shows up in a leopard print dress and... nothing?

I'm wondering whether this is just because people like Penny more than they like Tharqa, or whether it highlights a certain tendency on this forum to criticise Jason's fashion choices but never Gisele's. If it's the latter, then :(

Yeah, it's the former, I think. I stand by a statement I made earlier re: leopard print (only wrestlers or hookers wear it, in my experience) but I'm sure most people here are letting it go cause it's Penny and not Thar.

Sorry. This is why I shouldn't post when tired.

Leopard print is tacky, but from time to time it crops up in the fashion shows. However, the way to use any kind of animal print and be elegant is to use it as an accent and in moderation. That is, in bags, shoes, scarves, and the like. I personally feel Penny's top is small enough to pull it off. Tharqa's dress was HIDEOUS and to top it off she uses a BOW. WTF, Tharqa D:

Basically, yeah. Too much of a pattern looks terrible. It doesn't have to be animal print, but animal print is a good example. It distracts the eyes too much, so you don't even know where to look anymore.

The first two and fourth one there? Ugh. The third and fifth are played down a little by the plain colors the women are wearing with the print.

This. We're probably never going to agree on a couple of characters, but there's good ol' Tharqa, uniting us in horrified reactions. D:

Also: Leopard print as lingerie or a swimsuit? Now there's a winner. :D

It's really mice, I mean nice, to see Gis back for one last swing. :)

I will confess that when I first noticed the pet on Aggie's shoulder, I thought it was Finister's ghost.

This should be canon. X3

IMHO that ... thing Penny is wearing is a crime against humanity not to mention fashion. But hey, cleavage.

I was going to say something about it but then I remembered my asbestos suit is in the laundry^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H it's not nice to complain about special returning artist guest art.

But seriously, I think it's still a bit too big to be an acceptable leopard print "accent", yet I thank Gisele for not making it even smaller.

Okay, so that wasn't serious either. My real point of view is that Gisele and Jason both rock, and that I don't like leopard print very much.

Giraffe print, on the other hand... RAWR!

I knew it was Gisele's art before even scrolling down (seeing just a little of the top on my browser at first)> omg! I find it as wonderfullfilling as a whole regular set of panels w/ dialogue. Gisele has that rare quality of communicative art sans words.

Beautifully done. :D

And I might add this is the type of dress I prefer Penny in.
I happen to like Lisa BECAUSE of the way she speaks. If you don't get her, oh well... you are the one missing out.
