I just noticed the "birthday cake" next to NotWedge's name, so I thought I'd congratulate him... I hope you had/have/will have a great birthday, NotWedge! I'm actually turning 30 on the 29th of July, myself. I've got half a month to be a twentysomething. I expect that, on midnight of July 29th, my eyesight will fail, I'll develop jowls, a beer belly, and extremely long nose-hairs. I'll also probably wake up the next morning with a terrible urge to do some gardening and to spend an hour smoking a pipe while reading the newspaper...

Greystoke, Pneuma, Aeolus... very cool, Chewy. I want more!
Same for Grimm. The Siege is fantastic. I said it before, but every post is a joy to read.

Thank you. I plan to post a bit more during the weekend. A lot of the future Vanguard stuff is written, I just had tdo work the main plot towards it.
I like the potential conflict you've set up, Chewy, and I think your Turkish is dead on!

Euro and I posted at the same time. Just threw an edit in to say that mine took place a few minutes beforehand.
Thing is- I can’t spell or type. I spell so badly my spell check doesn’t even know what I was trying to spell. And I have five Eisners HAHAHAHHA!!

It wasn't a decision I made lightly, trust me... but it served the story and the characters, damn it. I stick by that.
Chewy, have I told you how much I love you lately? Just when we think Euro's written us into a final showdown, you show me why I gave my character those powers in the first place.
Oh, and that X-Men movie homage bit you did? With Phil and Hal? I swear, I was going to do that exact same thing in my next post. Great minds...

Oh, no, not at all. The line about the building crumbling and the need to save the "civilians" and wounded Vanguardians was to state that it was not yet the time for the the final showdown.

I never understood why Danny used the exoskeleton if he could just regenerate himself. I've always wanted to see that used... so I took some liberties.
And I love you too.

I just read all the chapters of "Vanguard: The Siege" that have been posted so far, and it is mind-numbingly entertaining. Kudos to Grimm (and his "collaborators") for such a rollicking good story. Can't wait to see more.

The collaborators are actually Grimm's multiple personalities.

I'm sorry Chewy, but I think I've ran out of ways to say Happy Birthday. Maybe next year.

I will take your admonishment to heart and attempt to do better in the future, sir.

Grimm, are you on a pseudo-Victorian-in-the-style-of-Alan-Moore's-replies-in-the-letters-column-of-The-League-of-Extraordinary-Gentlemen kick, or something?

It has a letter column? Damn, I've never knew that since I have the HC of the first series and not the individual issues. What have I missd?
