First the title… from Mountain’s 1970 album called “Climbing!” Great rock album, and I think one of their better tunes. In case you don’t know… Mountain did the original “Mississippi Queen” that Ozzy covered a year or so back.
Wait just one minute, now… You are asking “What the heck are you doing here, Byron?” And I reply that “Onomatopoeia” is the word for describing what comic artists do when we use words like “BAM!” or “FRRAAPP!!” in our comics. There’s a word for that? Yep, and today is the first annual “use onomatopoeia in your webcomic day” and thus… I have.
OH, you mean Lorraine? Hmm… girls will be girls, no? You’ll have to see where this goes, but you’re getting a bit more on Lorraine’s background in upcoming comics. Also, if you were Sam and had been leaping around the continuum for ages, wouldn’t you need a good kiss now and then? I would…
When I wrote this, I wanted to end it on a single comic, but I came up with essentially two really good ideas that linked together. If I did them in one comic, it felt rushed to me, so I made a two-parter. I hate that too, but it ends Wednesday. See you then!

Though onomatopoeia is (one of) the most awesome onomatopoeia I’ve seen, it’s not limited to comics: to take a “piss” is an onomatopoeia as well…
And a 1977 style bake sale should be fun. Can I pre-order some brownies?
I’m not following shit of these latest pages…but these new blouses you’ve been designing for Lorraine are great!
This may be my favorite page to date. (No, not for the girl kiss… though, rock on!) First, the “convenient plot device” caught me totally by surprise, and I loved it. Second, I had been wondering what the hell Sam could be doing there that would be important enough to require his presence, and the sudden zooming to the end of the “episode” by congratulating Sam for the bake sale and moving the boys out really tickled my funny bone. Finally, the onomatopoeia just made me laugh out loud. All because you nailed the end of a Quantum Leap show, and have now left me wondering WHY it was important to separate the boys from the girls.
Is it because there is going to be a huge fire and no more than half the cast can be sacrificed? Or maybe someone is going to meet and have a relationship with a person they would not otherwise have because of living with people of the opposite sex.
Tune in next time…
*Onomatopoeia!*
