LE FRED- I think I'll have to echo the previous comments made here. Your battle wasn't awful, but it wasn't stellar either. I think Bobo makes a good point with the feeling of disconnect as you go through the pages and the story felt like it was being told at a bit of a drag. I did like the 'death' scenes as it totally threw the rather serious tone with the ridiculous 'I'm dead' faces. JAZ- I am loving the shocking twist you got going in your battle. It really is a testament to your storytelling and bringing all your comics throughout this tournament together into one compelling tale that's cohesive and really fun to read. Definitely a well deserved win.

LeFred, I feel like you tried to match page count, even though you couldn't finish your coloring. I think you should have forgone the length to go for a more finished comic. I really like your shape and form, and how you demonstrate movement. JAZ, I think you comic was just great. It held my interest very well. I enjoyed the colors, gerat contrast, great bright, vibrant displays. It was also a clever story with good dialoge. nice work

Yaaaay! Finally up! LeFred: I was frankly a little disappointed in your comic. It's probably just my personal preferences, though, since I really liked the art and felt the story was really creative. It just all felt a little too out there and not relatable for me. I didn't feel connected to any of the characters, and even though it had a lot of good (albeit a bit morbid) humor, I found myself feeling like I wanted something else out of it. That said, I loved the part where Lucy gave the speech, your attention to details in the town and the people in it, and how you tied that into the surprise ending when she showed up again. I also was happy that I went back and read some of Lucy's other comics, since they made the storyline here make more sense, although I'm still really lost on who all of these characters are and where they keep coming from. Again, it's probably just my bad for not being more aware or whatever, but that's my two cents anyway. JAZ: As soon as I saw Viv, I knew this would be good. Actually, no, I knew it would be good as soon as I read your round 1 comic. But that's beside the point. I love your style, your colors, your panel layouts, and--most of all--how real your characters feel. You've tied every comic in this tournament together extremely well, and kept me looking forward to each new installment of your story. I hardly knew anything about you before Wacky Races, but now I'm a huge fan. I don't know if I'l be in the final round or not, but either way, I'm anxious to see your final act! Just awesome work all around!

I also got all of the troubles of the uploading persuation. But now all should be done and uploaded thaanks to train Wi-fi. Also, I am deeply ashamed because this is the first time since my first comic that I do not have had the time to color D:

Holy cow, I'm having huge issues trying to upload this! My browser keeps timing me out. I'm gonna try to upload one more time and if that doesn't work, I'll e-mail them to Angie.
