Guest 12 – Takeover, by ElectricGecko
Our fourth guest of 2016 is ElectricGecko, creator of Puck, a weekly webcomic that’s been running for quite a long time!
Gecko’s a fellow Canadian (although he’s a bloke from the English side, hah!) artist and he sure loves to draw pretty girls, so seeing how he’s lurking in the comments all the time, I had to ask him for a strip.
And I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed, even though he ended up doing a hostile takeover!
Is this what you guys want too? Gaia in glasses?
Not sure how I feel about Gaia with glasses…
I think I know how I feel; something along the lines of the last three panels here: http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1317
Don’t worry, I’ll make sure it never happens! :p
How?

You had one job. I’m glad you didn’t see it through.
He’s definitely on to something with the swimsuit idea!
I am firmly of the opinion that all good webcomics need to go to the beach (or at the very least a humble backyard pool) every once in a while.
Even if it’s just in TWC vote incentives promising cheesecake. And the “beach” is actually a billboard or poster the character is standing in front of… with the bikini blocked by actual cheesecake or whatever pun you set up in the vote button.
Don’t think I didn’t notice that Saki didn’t actually get a bikini either. You can’t fool me anymore… I hope.
I can’t possible imagine Saki wearing anything else than a japanese sukumizu. I influenced Gecko on that one.
Marduk, you know my evil ways well. Now you know that I tease in my own comic, but actually deliver the goods in OTHER PEOPLE’S comics.
Someday. They’ll go “to the lake” someday.
That sounds slightly ominous.
Thanks for bringing me here, EG, and thanks Dez for the lovely comic!
Aw, thank you for dropping back. I’m glad to have you here.
Yes. I agree. The comic’s absolutely perfect now.
HAHAHAHA!
Holy cow, that really is perfect. I knew you wouldn’t make fanservice so obvious and straightforward, Frivolesque is all about subtle hints (that’s why we like it so much), yet I was dying for some swimsuit action. Now we have it, but since it’s a guest strip, your style stays intact.
Well done.
I think people wouldn’t treat me as a legitimate webcomic artist if I did fanservice…
The primary difference between Etienne and me is the fact that I am shameless. SHAMELESS, I say! ;)
I am shameless about other things.
And thank you so much, Gecko. :)
(I don’t even know your real name)
(Also, you linked the comment section on your site instead of the actual comic, hah!)
Well, wouldn’t people want to comment? LET THEM COMMENT, I SAY!
SHAMELESS! No more rules.
You say that….and yet this beach you intend to set the storyline at is tragically of the non-nude variety.
Well, I’m shameless when it comes to goofy bikini cheesecake stuff. Which, I guess, is pretty tame in the internet big picture. So I’m shamelessly tame. (Tameless?)
Quite a sexy comic strip. Good work, sir Gecko!
Hey, what can I say? I’m a one-trick pony. But if your pony show only has time for one trick, then…
It’s still a wonderful trick.
In the Frivolesque universe, ophthalmologists are probably millionaires.
Some of them are millionaires in OUR universe. So … billionaires?
I don’t know about ophthalmologists, since those usually work with serious eye problems. But opticians and optometrists are happy with this influx of myopic girls.
BEST. STRIP. EVERRRRRRRRR!
I knew you’d like it.
I’d go in the OPPOSITE direction.
LASIK for everyone !
You’re a troll!
But I think LASIK doesn’t exist in the Frivolesque universe. :)
“Is this what you guys want too? Gaia in glasses?”
Not with THOSE frames, egad! Half under-rim or bust!
Ew, under rims need to stay in Japan. I deeply hate those atrocities.
Why not have them wear the same type of glasses Clark Kent wears to hide his Super heroic identity of Superman.
Yes Cleminitine and Girl of many jobs up close.
Gaia needs Glasses. Megane being my second favorite tag.
Gaia needs better glasses
Yup. Here goes.
Megane is love.
Pining? And not for the fjords?
“I think people wouldn’t treat me as a legitimate webcomic artist
ifunless I did fanservice…”Fixed that for you.
These girls are so cute, they almost hurt my eyes! (Including Gaia with glasses.) :)
