Nothin- While your story is shorter it feels much more complete and I like the way you interpret pudding in this. I don't have much to say but I feel you nailed Pudding's character in this pretty solidly and I found this comic fun.

Schneider- I love your colors and your shading is amazing I kind of would like to know about it more detail if you would be willing to explain it to me on like discord or something that would be cool. I also really like the brick background you have in this.
However while I really love your art I was honestly frustrated with the story in this. The huge problem is there is no reaction from Shmagic to Pudding's trick and the story of this stops in the middle. The first 2 pages of this comic is exposition and introduction, then the 3rd and 4th are conflict and tension with the final page being the climax. However there needs to be a resolution and Shmagic's reaction would be that resolution, I'm also just bouncing back in forth in my head as to whether Shmagic's reaction would even be considered a true resolution to this plot considering all the set up for the need to get a signature, but this is a one week comic and having so much already in it that would be fine. However that resolution I feel should be in there, since it makes the plot feel incomplete. Also why did he do that thing with the cards on page 4 if his trick was all about a clock? A small random aside I felt like mentioning. I feel like some of the exposition in the beginning could have been taken out to make space for a resolution at the end, since without a resolution that exposition really has no need to be there and when I think back on this comic it doesn't leave any impact.

I love:
- Both of these characters
- Both your guys' senses of humor
This is a great match up and I felt great reading your entries.

Relatively simple, to the point, and cute as hell. Despite being a single page you got more than a few chuckles out of me.
Love it, great work!!

Pudding is such an amusing little shit. This comic is funny, looks great, and has an interesting conclusion. I really appreciate the creativity of the ending, it's definitely a lot of fun.

Honestly I really enjoy your writing styles, I'm always jazzed to see comics from the both of you.
Wonderful work, thanks for the comics!

Either my iPad's plug needs to be replaced or CSP draws a little too much power to have it plugged in and charging at the same time, but regardless the cause I didn't get to totally finish the colors. Still minor technical issues aside, we're all good otherwise, I'm happy with it and I hope you have fun with the little magic trick I brought out for everyone! I had fun, it was a good warm-up and helped clear away some of the cobwebs I have with drawing fast-like. Thanks for accepting the challenge Nothin.

see typically you're supposed to do this trick with full-length sleeves but these characters have elbow-length sleeves and no sleeves whatsoever so i'm entranced with figuring out how this is gonna work
