A Spectre Unexpected (a Snupin comic): Part One
As promised here I have been working on a comic. I started this before the Resurrection Fest but it fits rather well.

~~I still need a title. Any suggestions extremely welcome. I'm terrible at titles.~~

Thanks to the lovely and wonderful and beautiful blpaintchart I now have a title!

A Spectre Unexpected

The cover is now avaliable here.

Here are the first five pages. Enjoy!

I long to talk with some old lover's ghost,
Who died before the god of love was born.
- John Donne, Love's Deity

Part two this way

	Meep! This is sooooo lovely. Ooh! the detail of Lupin looking in the mirror &... Wow! all the clever angles and... Yum! for their clothing and... I'm trying to find something for Kapow! but can't. Shall keep trying to think of a suitable Snupin Shed title. Hmmmmm. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	This is really excellent. I love Harry's dad's messy hair, and Snape's grumpily guilty lines of dialog. I'm going to join blpaintchart in thinking about the title. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! ruffles James's hair I wanted there to be some sort of thought for Snape with that Resurrection Stone scene. The joys of fanon! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Gorgeous. The third page is my favourite. Severus sitting with his knees drawn up to his chest (wibble), and his nose, and Remus' eyes, yum. This is great. I can't wait to see more! Hmm. Titles...I also suck at titles. I mean, heck, I'm the girl who's just making her way through the "re" entries in the dictionary. ^_~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re-entries ... doing it twice in one night. (headdesk Yes, I am currently listening to I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and it's gone to my brain) Thank you! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm liking A Spectre Unexpected, I have to say. Glad to have the vote of confidence. 'wounded sulkiness' -I like that! It's a very nice phrase. Sounds just right for our Severus. Thank you! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I love your icon! A friend of mine has a similar one ... but it's got 'it's fun to stay at the YMCA'. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"lovely and wonderful and beautiful?" faints through flattery Oh, and are the boys going to tidy up that shack? It's even dirtier than my house! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Good lord! this is amazing. I can't imagine just how much time you must have spent on this. All the details (wood panels for one) and composition and every things work so well. You did a splendid job. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to the next part. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	skitty_kat 2007-10-25 06:20 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you! I worry about how much time I've spent on this. I should be looking for a job... But hey, who needs jobs when there are people on the internet who say nice things? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	I can't quite describe how beautiful and poignant this is.They're so true-to-character, it's wonderful. And the art style is amazing. :) eagerly awaits the second part (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I could revive you through abuse but I think you'd rather stay unconscious. I don't think the Shack's that bad ... no worse than my house last year sometimes... I seem to have missed the swabbing out of this comic. Drat... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	This is lovely. The bit about the mirror was clever, and Snape getting up to put some distance between them was so painful... I´ll be waiting for the next part. ^^ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	skitty_kat 2007-10-25 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you! I applaud your use of icon. :D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, I really liked this. Especially poor Snape's "Only twenty-two years too late." And poor Remus looking in the mirror. :'( (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Glad you liked! Even if it did make you sad... 'Sad is happy for deep people.' (Reply to this) (Parent)

	squee! I ended up dead in here after all... GENIOUS. I can't wait until the next part. Wonderful job! The drawings are beautiful! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	wicked. thought the reflection in the mirror was really cool severus is being "difficult" as usual:D I can't wait for the next page (Reply to this) (Thread)

	skitty_kat 2007-10-26 09:08 am UTC (link)
	I'm glad the mirror thing worked. I was worried it was a bit crap. :D Severus is always difficult. Part of the genius of Snupin is that Lupin knows exactly what to do with him. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Nifty! I especially like the panel of Lily telling Remus to go to Severus, and all the ruined books... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	;_; Aw. So emotional, and it's just getting started, I'm sure. Poor Severus, being angsty and sulky even in death. And yes. He really should have been there in that scene. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	skitty_kat 2007-10-26 09:31 am UTC (link)
	pets your icon Damn feckin' straight. Severus could angst for England. But Remus couldn't so they match so well. :D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Awesome comic, hun, and so sweetly sad too! If they can't be together in real life then I'm satisfied with the thought of them being together in the afterlife. At least then they're unlikely to have the same amount of drama to contend with. Maybe. XD ::pets the boys:: more soon, yes? ;) Peace, Caspe (Reply to this)
