Quote: Quote: Great show IW, full of your usual plot-twists, long ago established tie-ins, and humorous instances amidst the action. Are you sure you are not the Chronicler of Stories these days? Props to whomever it was who encouraged you to write one more PV story.Quote: I may have over-run my agreed word count somewhat, by about 340%.Do you get double-time and a half for that? Quote: Quote: The lovely hyperlinks were very welcome, though I did find myself distracted by them at some stages and enjoyed wandering off into other stories for a bit (not a bad distraction at all). Quote: I considered reviving my usual footnotes but this felt a more immediate way of hooking folks in if they wanted the distraction. The scene with the Baroness and Mumph reviewing how a bunch of obscure stories slotted together in my mind was probably best illustrated by filling the scene with hyperlinks.Mumph and Baroness were perfectly suited and their dialogue was fun. I'm also partial to Al B. invoking all the Shoggoth, as you'd expect. Quote: Quote: I'm very very glad to see the Chain Knight end up where he did. He is by far your most horrific villain. I still recall his first appearance with chills late at night, so I am glad he finally got what was coming to him. It's a sad end in some ways as his heart was once pure.Quote: This was his third and final PV outing, although he is scheduled for a Vinnie de Soth novel at some point. He may bring friends.I suppose he is well suited to the Vinnie mythos, though I personally think he'd make a darn good Mumph adversary. Quote: As for him being my most horrific villain, there is another contender whom I'm considering as one of two candidates for the God of Revenge.I'd be interested in who you think are your most horrific villains? god of Revenge spoilers aside. The Carnifex? Or Madame Symmetry maybe? The Parody Master was pretty gruesome when written by you as well. Or possibly that bone fella from your Avengers story back in the day (Avengers Underground - did you ever finish that? The links aren't working). No doubt I'm forgetting someone. Quote: Quote: Some great one liners throughout also - I think I shall re-read it to enjoy them all again! Quote: I've just been reading some of my old PV stories for the first time. I was favourably surprised that some of them seemed good. Quote: I've just read the 10th Caphan material and the Sepulchre of Doom stuff that fallowed it. I can't even recall which bits of the latter were me and which were Visionary. I seem to recall that, against type, he did many of the serious bits and I did a lot of the humour.I intend to go back and re-read the Transworld Challenge at some stage, because I missed a bit of it first time round due to work travel. Quote: Quote: Will we find out who the God of Revenge is or will you leave us hanging for another five years? Quote: No progress on that one this time. That would probably toss us right into the multi part Da Visionary Code storyline.You know you'll have to write that now that you've given it a title. Quote: Quote: I'm trying to think up an Al B. tie-in to write (I mean, why not?) but I haven't really got along very far in the thought process. Quote: Think of a really killer bit of dialogue to cold open with and take it from there."Miss Framlicker pulled the blood-soaked dagger from Al B. Harper's no-longer beating heart and smiled wickedly to herself, then cackled with insane laughter as she wiped the blood off the dagger against her pale cheek" narrated someone. | |||||||
