Thus ends the long part of the story that is "Part 2: Admire The Tower." This is NOT the end of the entire arc. Part 3 starts tomorrow with a continuation and sort of epilogue to the story.

Just une petite note. In panel 3, Kevin is not saying anything. That's Claire's speech bubble because she is off camera. Kevin just has his mouth open for unknown reasons.

The return of the demon eyes in panel 1. I tend to like it when I make the characters eyes like that. I think it looks a bit more cartoony.

Character traits move a long way. This isn't to say that Eric will stop procrastinating, but he's getting better.

Top left of the page is bent and held down by my pencil...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU---
Ruins the illusion doesn't it. If you're having trouble reading the top of the page, just zoom in. Now I'm going to slam my head against a wall out of sheer anger.

Here's a little behind the scenes, fun fact for you. When I originally mapped out HSP, I never had this scene in my map (Along with other scenes). That's exactly why I don't immediately script it out. I'll map it first so i have a general idea, then the day of that page I'll think to myself "Okay, I have to progress the story and put this in here, but here's a good place for this gag I just thought of." The only reason I don't write my jokes in advance is because later on, I'll either come up with something I think is better, or I just won't think it's funny anymore. Anyway, so the reason why I included this scene at last minute was for 4 major reasons. 1: I wanted to include a bit more of Steve Steele and show how much of a jerk he could be. 2: I wanted to prove that Steele DOES have magic and Robin wasn't lying. 3: To show that Steele's spell doesn't affect Eric because technically he's not a real girl (We'll get a bit more into that later). and 4: I can't say yet. This comes later.

Sophie's retribution time. She's finally becoming a likable character. This won't be how all of my kind of antagonists will end up though. I have ideas and people now who are still straight up bad, and aren't going to change.

And so it finally happens, Joel and Liz finally share a kiss. This is the start of a very important relationship coming in later stories. "Love" and "Like" are two very different things. See, at this point, Mary and Eric are comfortable enough with each other to know that they are in love. But, Joel and Liz aren't at that point yet. Will they ever? Maybe someday, but not today. There's a lesson from a love doctor.

I love how Liz is the only character that is overly dramatic and isn't joking when she does it. Like Erica can be overly dramatic, but it's always in a way to cut to a quick gag or joke. Individualism in characters is awesome.

As soon as we get some of the group together again, I'm splitting them up. I know, I'm a jerk in that respect. Don't worry, we're wrapping it all up soon.

I was worried that Eric's female persona would look too much like Sophie, but it doesn't so I don't have to worry after all. Now, I wanted to talk a bit about the haircut and what it means for Eric when he transforms back. This is a little bit of GLD Comics transformation mythos. So since Eric got his haircut when he was in his Erica form, it won't affect him in his normal Eric form. But now, every time he transforms into his Erica form, this haircut will be applied.So basically, the haircut alters his transformed state but not his normal state. Thank God there's no time travel in this comic or else explaining the mechanics of it would take probably 3 more paragraphs.

Hey! Look at that! New art is implemented! You may not notice big differences, mainly for the fact that they are all very subtle. Let's make a game out of it. It's up to the reader to pick out the changes in art form in the next pages.

If nobody got the gag, it's an obvious reference to the Amanda Show skit with Tony Pajamas. I felt as though the reference was 100% appropriate considering the situation.

What Erica says in panel 3 is something that had to be addressed. Why is there no soda at this party, simply, it's a typical high school party. Erica takes an aspect from what I do in those situations, find the only non-alcohalic beverage around. Eric also takes an aspect of my personality with the couch fanatics. I hate parties, and instead of being in the crowd, I'd much rather be in a secluded place by myself or with a few friends.
