Khar, Tsagaan, Shuvuu, Mangas - IS - Prologue 1



Dear readers: 

I promised you a very special treat in the last post. These are the first few pages to a WEBCOMIC! A FRICKING WEBCOMIC! This post occurs in the real world, and as such, no Mr Bloomsip here today. No Hibiscus either, and Firecracker the purple-rumped sunbird, named for the firecracker plant in my balcony they visited, doesn't seem to be anywhere nearby. 

These characters are Roy Chapman Andrews and his wife Yvette Borup Andrews. As this is a little bit of exposition and the first appearances of Tsaagan mangas, Citipati, and Shuvuuia, enjoy. 





Do not expect regular uploads. 

-Pied Survogel 

P.S. The cover text is in Cyrillic Mongolian and it's read "Khar Tsagaan Shuvuu Mangas", which means "Black White Bird Monster".

Hello again! Here are two new pages of my webcomic, ready to read! Mr Bloomsip (preview alert) may or may not feature in this comic in future pages, so stay tuned!  For more frequent updates, here's the Scratch link:  https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/881818483/   This chapter is set in the Los Alamos laboratory in an unspecified year, featuring Richard Feynman and Enrico Fermi. They're poring over a paper by Albert Einstein, and no dinosaurs feature here (yet).  The main arc should be coming soon!  -Pied Survogel  P.S. A regular blog article and a once-a-month posting schedule should happen soon.

It's been a while, what with me moving to a less tree-filled place and Mr Bloomsip's Nintendo Switch was nearly reclaimed by the company when they discovered that neither he nor Hibiscus were human.  BLOOMSIP: I missed you! But I didn't miss your secret co-host.  HIBISCUS: We don't talk about him that way!  B: He nearly ate you!  H: Fair, but still.  P: So, shall we start? I'll sh...

Happy World Wildlife Day!

Hello, fellow eukaryotes! It's March 3, which means it's World Wildlife Day! It happens on the same date every year. I decided that I'd give you a little behind-the-scenes update and share a few facts about wildlife.  ⬆️The avian co-hosts and I had a chat today. Here's a picture of it.  So, the next episode is going to be biome-focused. Unfortunately, I deleted the draft for it, accidentally and irreversibly. Thankfully, the guest stars and I are willing to re-record/rewrite it. It's going to be more scientific than previous episodes.  Now, here are the facts.  "Wildlife" doesn't just mean "animals". Bacteria, archaea, fungi, plants, and other eukaryotes also count.  Most animals are arthropods! This is because insects are successful. And beetles alone comprise 40% of insects.  Speaking of insects, flycatchers aren't named that because they catch flies. It's because they fly to catch prey (flycatching).  And that's all...
