Commentary

Posted March 20, 2024 at 12:00 am

I'm putting the Tuesday EGSNP note up here, because hey, EGSNP's back!

And now this page's actual commentary

- "What else could she know about me...?" (from a couple pages back)

I know a reference to a couple pages ago might be a bit much, but Jay didn't openly declare "I want to know what Susan knows about me," and when this was new, that was a whole week ago. A quick reminder of why the heck she even wants to talk to Susan felt appropriate.

Jack

"Jack" is a callback to the EGSNP storyline Parable. Jay met Susan in their shared dream, but Jay was aware it was a dream, and gave Susan a fake name. She nearly said "Jay," but shifted into saying "Jack".

(This is the comic in which Jay gives the fake name to Susan. The start of Susan sneaking into a place to meet Jay begins here.)

As for why Grace is making that face in the last panel, the reason probably isn't what you think!

I'm guessing. I don't know what you're thinking. It's entirely possible you guessed it exactly.

How it goes sometimes

Me: "Using the 3D model I made myself, I'm going to carefully determine EXACTLY what the background should be in panel two!"

Also me: "That's way too busy. I'm going to play up how excited Grace is instead with a stylized background."
