Guest 16 – Julep, by Tania Mignacca
Behold! The final guest strip of 2016!
Tania Mignacca is quickly conquering the province of Quebec with her super cute webcomic about an optimistic traffic cone called Ponto!
I’m really flattered that she managed to take some time off her busy schedule to draw me this adorable thing! Even though Ponto is all about Montreal and Frivolesque takes place in Quebec City, no city rivalry will stand between our collaboration!
Thank you Tania, I love your stuff to death. And we’ll have to go grab some food at the Orange Julep next time I visit La Métropole. :)
For those who don’t know, “Orange Julep” is a fast food restaurant in Montreal that’s also considered to be some sort of landmark considering the building is shaped like a big huge orange in the middle of a huge parking lot. I always said Montreal was a strange place.
Go check out her webcomic now! Now I say!
Brace yourselves. Chapter 5 starts next week! I’m on fire.
Even though I’m a Quebec City guy all the way (Montreal is, to me, the stuff of urban nightmares), this comic wins by a mile: Clementine AND The Girl of Many Jobs (or a reasonable facsimile) featured prominently! OH HAPPY DAY!!!
Seriously, though, this is awesome.
Quebec City wins, of course.
But yeah, Tania is awesome like that. <3
but they have the same name
Who does?
The Girl of Many Jobs confirmed for working everywhere in the province.
Also it’s very orange… as expected for a comic by Tania?
Merci! lol Am I that predictable? ;)
I did not expected you drawing humans, though.
Kawaii level over 8000!!! :P
Thanks! ^_^
This confirms it. The Girl of many jobs is actually the result of a failed secret government experiment to create the ultimate spy. It failed and instead created the ultimate store clerk. There are about a dozen of them spread around Canada helping to improve the economy.
Are you sure it failed? Maybe being the ultimate store clerk is just a cover for the ultimate spy?
At least it’s better than the supposedly secret agent James Bond who seems to get recognized by absolutely everybody.
I absolutely love the colors, the joy from the panels, the spirit of Frivolesque seems very much alive in this iteration and it’s fun to see another failed attempt from Clementine to try and get with M-N XD only to be foiled by the Girl of Many Jobs.
In another universe, Clem and the Girl of Many Jobs are sworn enemies, I’m sure of that! XD
This is how yanderes are made… poor Clem.
I know the place. Orange Julep has been around for decades; I remember seeing it for the first time when I was a kid.
If you’re ever passing along Decarie Boulevard (the service road, not the expressway) in the Mount Royal area, be sure to check it out.
I know where Orange Julep is! XD
