Amelius

Hey guys! Sorry for a bit of a wait, this is a page that got lost in the original UIU run, goody, you get to see it!

And let me say something, I don't want what I said the last update to be misconstrued; I am not beyond criticism of my work and I welcome it, but what does bother me is when people are being snide, pseudo-intellectual art snobs and the "review" is a thinly veiled attack, with obvious very little forethought (as if they pulled this out of their rear-end, nothing is said that even remotely applies to the comic but if you point it out then you're "not listening to criticism")
Then here's a fun one though, they were saying that Fernando and Charby are the same character with different hair. Anyone with more than a single brain cell wouldn't think that an egomaniacal,intelligent, assertive, aggressive, short tempered and vain-glorious but often sentimental vampire is the same character as a naive, passive,insecure, over-emotional and sneaky zombie. If Fernando really was like Charby, Skylar would be long dead, and he'd have hit on Amelius the day they met! In fact, I might do a comic about it. You know I'd do it too! If you're gonna trash my comic at least offer some proof that you read it with your brains turned on, right?! I say!

Like I said, it's not that the review was negative that upset me, it was just that the motives behind the negativity were so freakin' transparent that it made me sick. Being treated like I know nothing about art or comics was also mighty insulting.

Oh by the way CH readers: it updated.
