Air Raid Robertson Strip 14

Air Raid Robertson

on July 8, 2009

Here's strip 14, with new lettering and in a bigger size. I've gone back and made the size and lettering adjustments to Strip 1 and Strip 2. The others will follow once I get around to it.

One point that I had storytelling issues with is some of the metafiction stuff popping up in this strip. I do enjoy the idea that Air Raid Robertson and Ridley can both hear and understand the narrative captions. I also think it can be potentially funny when Air Raid Robertson argues with the narrator and having the narrator argue back.

I have encountered some cartoons and comics that take this sort of thing too far though, and it can get pretty annoying. I kind of have to be careful here.

Still, Deadpool and She-Hulk argue with the narrator all the time. Everybody likes Deadpool and She-Hulk, right?

On another note, I am clearly fond of having my villains exclaim "Meep!" when they get their asses handed to them.

The next strip will conclude the "Lost in the Mysterious Jungle" storyline. It's a little hard to believe that Air Raid Robertson's first story-arc is already done. Many thanks to all those who have been following the strip thus far.
