Wow… Things are definitely getting interesting. Keep up the good work.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:07 pm
I can smell the douchyness from here. –_– he is teh evil
December 17th, 2007 at 8:07 pm
She should have gone to Alaska.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:08 pm
Since there’s no way he could’ve gotten all that started right after hearing about Stasia’s wedding… something else has to be up with this.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:18 pm
Well hes gonna use the ‘charity center’ as a front for his child labor factories. What hes not telling the people who are wearing the shirts is that by wearing them they are signing a contract to make those shirts for 2 pennies and half a peanut a day.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:33 pm
Excellent page… I’d have liked to oversee the design of that shirt, though. I hope Christian is better at designing buildings than he is at shirts!
December 17th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
I hate that guy already.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:37 pm
Christian in name only, probably.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:40 pm
He only look truly evil in the final panel. *suspicious*
December 17th, 2007 at 8:45 pm
He looks like a shapeshifting alien in the last panel. Liek hes about to turn into a skrull or something.
Or like he’s an owl with his head turned around.
December 17th, 2007 at 9:01 pm
*hates Christian with the fiery passion of 1,000 screaming fangirls.* And fangirls are a force to be reckoned with. Just ask Parker.
December 17th, 2007 at 9:02 pm
Something odd is going on here. I can smell it.
December 17th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
Christian has a striking resemblance to Owen Wilson. :p
December 17th, 2007 at 9:43 pm
Pretty obvious what’s happening here. Either it’s a ploy to make her like him again, or it’s a rival charity started for revenge purposes.
Keep it up!
December 17th, 2007 at 9:48 pm
He looks shifty…somebody sic Parker on him.
December 17th, 2007 at 10:12 pm
More likely a publicity stunt of some sort. The classic “every star does it and it will make me look cool”
December 17th, 2007 at 11:06 pm
urgh creepy new guy
December 17th, 2007 at 11:12 pm
The way he talks…I would have an almost irresistible urge to smack him on that alone.
December 17th, 2007 at 11:16 pm
You’re gonna want to smack him a lot more soon!
December 17th, 2007 at 11:57 pm
Maybe it’s just me.. or maybe I’m the only one with this sort of view point..
But I imagine that Christian has an Australian accent… sorta like the (RIP) Crocodile Hunter…
December 18th, 2007 at 12:07 am
Go one further: Imagine him being played by the guy who plays Chase on House.
I’m betting this: this “charity” is an attempt to either get back with Stasia or get back at Stasia — depending on who ended the relationship. If he ended it, this is his revenge for those “tests” she put him through. If she ended it, this is his lame attempt to try to show that he really is worth her attention. Probably doesn’t know about Guy, which will be quite a slap to his ego.
December 18th, 2007 at 12:37 am
Men don’t change. Ever.
XD don’t fall for it!!
December 18th, 2007 at 1:16 am
I agree with Jonathan… Douchebag meter is off the charts. I for see a punch to the face coming from Guy… (Sorry if you’ve said this earlier in the comments. I’d rather not spoil the story like with what happened in LB, so I don’t read them. I just had to make sure I wasn’t the only one who thought Christian seemed like a womanizing prick.)
December 18th, 2007 at 2:20 am
Actually, I’m picturing Christian being played by Owen Wilson.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:11 am
Hes a schmuck…
December 18th, 2007 at 3:16 am
In all fairness, it’s too early to tell what Christian may be up to, if anything at all. But that smile in the final panel is so shady.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:37 am
Not a regular poster here. But I figured I’d add my thought:
Location is everything. And setting up a charity center next to another one is, fairly obviously, not done for charity purposes, or he’d choose an area not allready ‘covered’.
So, yeah. Eeebil.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:55 am
The paint sketch is hilarious.
Also, I already dislike Christian. Yay for the new page, thank you guys!
December 18th, 2007 at 4:46 am
Oooh….Ironic much? Love Stasia’s hair in the second to last panel, don’t really know why…just flows well ^o^
December 18th, 2007 at 5:16 am
Hmmm… Is it bad that I have this deep urge to sucker punch him already?
December 18th, 2007 at 6:52 am
“Christian has a striking resemblance to Owen Wilson. :p”
maybe that’s who they want to play him.
“Men don’t change. Ever.”
that’s not true, I used to be a total dweeb and now I have been upgraded to a full-fledged geek. Men just don’t change that FAST!
also, he comes off as extreeeeeemely egotistical so I’m having trouble picturing him playing a butler even if he does save the day.
December 18th, 2007 at 8:12 am
“A brand new Christian.” Is he born-again?
He bears a striking resemblance to Starscream in the last panel. From now on, I’m going to imagine all of his lines with Chris Latta’s voice.
December 18th, 2007 at 8:20 am
Well now that you have likened Christian to Owen Wilson, I can hear him talking in the same manner that Owen does. Brill.
Actually, it works.
December 18th, 2007 at 8:20 am
I’d say that Christian knows about the marriage incedent. He doesn’t seem like the type to ever be not connected via cell phone, and someone would call him. Or everyone. Also I think the press would know where he is and how to contact him, as he also seems like the type to have a “look at me I’m socially consious” press conference. But if for some reason he actually hasn’t hear it would be so worth it to see the look on his face when Ana introduces him to he “husband”. *Glee*
Also I have to agree with tmd about the shirts. A winking dissembodied head is bad design at the best of times. And we all dislike the winking head in question already.
December 18th, 2007 at 8:29 am
“Is he born-again?”
If you’re serious, I suggest reading Panel 5 of Page 1 and Panel 5 of Page 55.
December 18th, 2007 at 9:04 am
“Babydoll”????? Puh-LEEZE. What a loser!!!!
December 18th, 2007 at 9:14 am
I hate guys like him, come back into a chicks life just to hurt them again..and they dunp you in the process…..::Grumbles::
December 18th, 2007 at 9:57 am
God, now that the Starscream reference has been made, I won’t be able to see Christian any other way. It’s funny how both Stasia and Christian are blondes, but on Christian it just feels like he is too blonde. Yeah…he’s gonna be a douche, I can feel it…
December 18th, 2007 at 9:59 am
I agree with Jillster. “Babydoll”? Hahah! Funny! I was waiting for the rival to show up. All fair’s in love and war. Because they’re one in the same. Let the war begin. (This is gonna rock, I’m so excited!)
December 18th, 2007 at 10:00 am
Heh, typo “Fair’s” Please excuse that.
December 18th, 2007 at 10:34 am
Oh well ex-boyfriends…I think move of revange by getting her back and breaking her relationship with guy.
He starting in the no.1 movie in the country he play the butler hehehe, remember him, look at panel 1 at the beginning
December 18th, 2007 at 11:07 am
Argh, so annoying! Poor Stasia… Great page… and the plot thickens! (always wanted to say that xD).
December 18th, 2007 at 11:24 am
I see humiliation in the future for him. I also see him trying to be buddy buddy with guy to mess him up and a meltdown in which he says he’s better than guy because he’s a star.
December 18th, 2007 at 11:50 am
Just found this comic through WOWIO, decided to read over it. It’s a fun read, so I’ll be adding it to favorites to read more 8^)
December 18th, 2007 at 12:52 pm
hehe, can’t wait to see Christian lose his temper ’cause of Guy
>:-)
December 18th, 2007 at 1:16 pm
I can just imagine him sitting by himself and going: “*sigh* the things a guy has to do to get laid”…
December 18th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
He’s intentions are entirely fake. Anyone who really want to help do not need to be publicized. waaa Guy has rival XD.
December 18th, 2007 at 1:55 pm
I concur. Whether it’s for putting up a false front of reformation or a rival front for revenge, I’m getting big red flags here. Rich shallow doucebag is written all over this guy. Actually, I’m getting creepy stalker impressions too. (”We’re gonna be African neighbors!” No need to build another charity centr so close.) This Joker card though is perfect for giving Guy a chance to shine. Better than whatever test Stacia was coming up with.
December 18th, 2007 at 1:55 pm
Something is obviously amiss. Everyone here can smell the oddities of all of this.
December 18th, 2007 at 2:28 pm
Can I have a t-shirt?
(seriously)
December 18th, 2007 at 3:40 pm
“If you’re serious, I suggest reading Panel 5 of Page 1 and Panel 5 of Page 55.”
Bobby, are you hinting that he is in fact building a movie set NOT a charity center?
I mean come on he has to be up to something crooked and underhanded, just look at those shifty eyes.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:44 pm
Simply saying that his first name is Christian.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:45 pm
“Babydoll”. This alone would have me slapping him upside the head with something heavy. Anyone who uses that kind of pet name to an ex is not, repeat not on the level.
All’s fair in love and war, as they say, so this’ll be interesting. Remember kids - one’s a soul destroying rollercoaster that leaves you a twisted wreck of humanity, and the other’s war.
December 18th, 2007 at 3:59 pm
Ooh, if he pisses Stasia off….
Parker’s gonna beat the ever luvin shit outta him. That, or he’s gonna get in Guy’s face, and Guy, ever so calmly, will crack him in the jaw making him go DOWN like George on Snack Food. (i’ll explain it if anybody asks about that metaphor ^^)
And that’s not even MENTIONING our buddy Denny. Or Janny. Here’s hoping *coughnotcough* that Christian knows to NOT agitate the pregnant lady. Hehe.
Anyways, YOU GUYS ARE ROCKIN IN THE FREE WORLD!!
December 18th, 2007 at 6:49 pm
Guy~! We need to see him.
December 18th, 2007 at 6:49 pm
I find it very interesting on how everyone is already judging his character on the first page…
…
but I must join- he doesn’t look like the nicest guy in town.
at all.
*glares*
December 18th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
I am mostly timid mouse in things but I will say that there is no good to come of this…
(Chew Sir! Now Fluids Sir!)
Anyway… as far as I can see the activity is recent and its been like what… three days now since they married… If you account that the concert event was on the air within that night… there was plenty of time for someone to try and…
ahem
Be Brand New…
I just broke off my relationship with my fiance little over year ago… and she used endearments even afterwards… not so kosher in my book… and I don’t think it should be in anyone else’s…
Publicity… has to be…
And that reference about Starscream…
*shiver*
December 18th, 2007 at 7:41 pm
We know enough. We know that Parker, on the previous page, looked shocked and disgusted at seeing him. She would know everything there is to know about one of Stacias exes. (Of course, she could be jealous)
“babydoll”… no, just no.
Sudden change of heart means: He is an actor. He is playing this as a part.
Placing his charity across the street from hers. There simply can’t be any good reason for that, and lots of bad ones.
December 18th, 2007 at 9:07 pm
Aha! I have it. Those T-shirts are all branded “Stately Manor”, the name of the film he stars in, and has his face on it. This is a publicity attempt at pushing his name in the film and possibly sponging off Stasia’s popularity by proximity to her charity center.
December 18th, 2007 at 9:07 pm
I sense an ulterior motive. Also…what kind of charity is giving out T-shirts that gives publicity to one’s own movie?
December 18th, 2007 at 9:09 pm
Oh, and using possibly impoverished (they could be rich for all I know) African kids as part of that marketing campaign, so when the news crews arrive to look at the charity center, all those kids will be carrying his brand name around.
December 18th, 2007 at 9:29 pm
“Christian has a striking resemblance to Owen Wilson”
So THAT’S why I want to b!tch-slap him!
Well… that, and the fact that he’s coming off like a smug, smarmy, opportunistic jackhole.
December 18th, 2007 at 10:21 pm
I think Christian should be played by Justin Timberlake. I hate Justin Timberlake.
December 18th, 2007 at 11:09 pm
WOOT! Got the E-books.
Wow, I have the feeling I wont be liking this Christian guy.
December 19th, 2007 at 12:36 am
hehe Christian is cross eyed in teh last frame
December 19th, 2007 at 1:50 am
“You’re gonna want to smack him a lot more soon!”
…Spoiler, or only confirming what we all already knew? xD
And WHOA with the Owen-Wilson-ness! I know everyone’s already commented. But, add mine with theirs please.
December 19th, 2007 at 11:48 am
Christian is now my new favorite MM character.
December 19th, 2007 at 11:54 am
I get the feeling nothing good will come of this.
December 19th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
Eew, he’s a total skeezeball! Go Guy, go!
December 19th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
Love the smarmy attitude of Christian… I am going to LOVE hating him…
Good work Bobby and Eisu. ^_^v
December 19th, 2007 at 4:38 pm
Why does the sleaze ball have to share my name? At least I spell mine with a ‘K’ and not a ‘C’. And what kind of charity advertises a movie?
December 19th, 2007 at 4:48 pm
This guy smells something awful. What’s his angle…?
December 20th, 2007 at 6:04 am
maybe he is part of the test
January 19th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
He may be a jerk, but there are a lot of worse ways of expressing one’s jerk-ness than by starting a charity.
March 18th, 2008 at 10:36 am
Evil senses tingling! I feel that he’ll turn out to be a big problem!
April 19th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Can Christian get kicked in the nuts?
Well, if he has any…
April 19th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Does this make him a born-again Christian? :p
