"KELLY": Scar Trek


My bad for coming both late and off-Thursday; "SCAR TREK" is technically last week's episode.
My studio kit is nearly together over in our new home, so you can expect a return for what passes for normalcy... and the next installment of "KELLY" this Thursday.

Get caught up on "KELLY" here


















Oh, one more thing: if you're a big "KELLY" fan, you'll probably want to sign up for my new mailing list for this (and other) projects. You can sign up at dangoldmandotnet; the mailings go out quasi-weekly, whenever there's new comix posted or whatever. If you're already getting emails from me and would like to continue getting them, do us both a favor and sign up on the new list? My mailing list has grown to the point where my ISP is bitching and I'm going to phase the old girl out very soon... It'd be a shame to even think about you without my emails, all alone in the electronic night.

See you jerks Thursday...

Man, this is just so brilliant Dan. We now truly see why and how this is Kelly's tale and almost everything before this was a prologue.

There are certain books and movies where I've had this feeling, where the last 20-40 minutes of the film were all just a set-up for the real story, but a necessary setup that without you'd be unfit and unprepared for the whallop you're about to get.

Thanks man. I'll make sure to get myself on that mailing list... all for the love!

I remember over a year ago, you were saying you couldn't read this because you had to know NOW what Kelly's deal was. Isn't it better when you wait?

Thanks for the love and for reading/sounding off; I promise the story is only gonna get better and better straight through to THE END.

"the kids at churched preached a better message, but it just got yer ass kicked on the way home from school." - great little delivery there...heh
these pages rock, and the implications of having that mask passed around the 3 of them is really a nice promise of things to come.

thanks man; this is the first actual flashback in "KELLY" and I'm having fun playing with the pacing between voice-over captions and spoken dialogue (I use too much film terminology, i know).

now be quiet before you spoil anything else!

I'm actually betting it's Gary or one of his ilk when Kelly has a bout of conscience. Nothing like an ass-whuppin' from a Nazi to cure you of any love you might have had for them. The red word balloons telegraph sick hatred.

Now, had there been any indication previous to now Kelly was a Brit? If it was mentioned hitherto I missed it. I'm unsure how I'd "heard" his voice in my head; Theresa actually has the strongest voice, but that's because the dialect is unmistakeable.

Now I can look forward to Thursday for more than just "Who Wants To Be A Superhero" and "Mind Control." Yeah, I know, that's pretty sad.

yeah, Kelly's always been a Brit, albeit a transplant.
if you speak his dialogue out loud, you'll see his speech is clunkier in its complexity in a way that isn't at-all American.

"The red word balloons telegraph sick hatred." <-------now these reactions are what i love to see; just hang in there hoss, it's almost nearly on!

I spoke to Kelly and he's on his way over... what's your address again?

Also, he was wondering if you could pick a gallon jug of mineral oil and a 12 pack of extra-ply paper towels on your way home tonight? He wants your wholefam to be squeaky clean.
