Title: Re: Achievement Post by: crazydorian on March 02, 2022, 04:57:12 am Fun first issue. I'm curious to see if and how it might be connected to any rings or jewels from the other stories on the site. :)

Title: Re: Achievement Post by: Daphne on March 02, 2022, 09:32:26 am Title: Re: Achievement Post by: lancehunter on March 02, 2022, 10:14:06 am Maybe the onomatopoeia at the top of page 9? It was very subtle, and if not for that comment I probably wouldn't have noticed.
Title: Re: Achievement Post by: mns_95125 on March 02, 2022, 04:11:28 pm "Splush" is probably a reference to the TV show "Archer", which had a running gag of women saying that when they saw a good-looking man. (And on one memorable occasion a gay man, on seeing an attractive man, said "Whatever the male equivalent of 'splush' is... which I guess would be 'splush'.")
Title: Re: Achievement Post by: lifmcs on March 03, 2022, 08:13:54 am I think it was "sploosh" on Archer. This appears to be just what it looks like, him splashing a bunch of water on his face with an "uh" sound.
Title: Re: Achievement Post by: ozymandias on March 04, 2022, 07:32:31 am Top right panel of page 11. I thought maybe I'd missed something. Maybe she's washing her face or something and it's just a throw-away sound. Title: Re: Achievement Post by: lifmcs on March 05, 2022, 01:46:23 pm Top right panel of page 11. I thought maybe I'd missed something. Maybe she's washing her face or something and it's just a throw-away sound. Huh, didn't see the second one. Yeah, it sure reads like an Archer reference (https://youtu.be/HC1NqZvY_lA). Title: Re: Achievement Post by: Daphne on March 05, 2022, 02:54:47 pm As much as I would love to take credit for a hip-and-with-it pop culture reference, sometimes a splush is just a splush, and the one on page 11 was a lettering goof. Fixed.
Title: Re: Achievement Post by: mns_95125 on March 05, 2022, 08:52:16 pm If it makes you feel any better I'm not sure Archer references would be considered 'hip-and-with-it' any more. The show peaked years ago.
