Here\'s the comment I should have left earlier:

Kure, I have to say, the Amazing Lobster Boy is fun to read, because he\'s so endearing in a rip your damn head off sort of way. I love the dark inks and the terrific expressions you throw on people. Your story, though, was a bit brief, and over too quickly. I know that\'s what the SDT is all about, but Hiemie pulled off a much longer fight, which won him the story points from me.

Hiemie, great stuff here. The main reason I actually voted for your fight is that I really like the way you draw Lobster Boy. That, and some bad-ass watercolors helped you win out over Kure. As always, I love the way you throw in random shit like the righ guy\'s accent and the lobster-serving moron at the end.

All in all, though, a great read and a well-matched battle.

I\'m having trouble voting for this as they are both equally awesome, for some reason I think I like Kure\'s battle better because it seriously had me cracking up at some points, the dialogue was just too damn funny; however I might have a bias because I like his character a lot (lobsters are underrated!) so I have no intention to really add into the votes for this battle, still it was a nice read with laughs and fun on both sides, kudos and good job to both of ya troublemakers.

Whoops. Sorry, Kure. That was meant to be one part trash talk, three parts facetiousness, but it came out as four parts asshole. Didn\'t mean to make you mad. I apologize.

Just for the record, I\'m a huge fan of both Kure and Hiemie.

Jesse, don\'t control our voting, if we like hiemies, we\'ll vote for him, if we like kure\'s comic, we\'ll vote for him! I don\'t care if I dissapoint anybody, even you! I liked kure\'s cause it was alot more entertaining, hiemies just seemed a bit boring to me (but his art is more top notch than it has ever been lately). That\'s all I\'m going to say about that!

If people don\'t vote fairly or try to comment on how people should sway the votes in favor of there favorite artist, I\'ll be dissapointed. No offence Jesse.

Good entries on both sides but I had to vote for Polar Pal. I just loved the innocent evil portrayed. I could hear a child\'s tune play eerily everytime he spoke.

If Lobster Boy wins this, I\'m going to be very disappointed in all of you.

No offense, Kure.

No Offense? How can i not take offense to that?

Hiemie won me over with the toxic lobster headline.

Also, I like the way he draws Lobster Boy better than the way Kure does.

I thought you two did an awesome job... but...

Kure: You\'re really good at getting a laugh from me dude, but this really doesn\'t look up to par with your other fights dude, oh well, you still have strong visuals as always and plenty of entertainment in your fights. My vote went to you

Hiemie: You know you rock out with traditionals, but most of this just looked sloppy from time to time, nothing too major dude. You\'ve got the edge in creativity, but entertainmentwise I think you could do a lot better.


Too close to really decide a winner right now, but I voted in favor of Kure this time around.

Hiemie your art is getting so much more intense lately - rich colors, more textures, and I think you\'re using more mediums than anyone else in Void. Your comic looks like a lot of work. I wish other people would try to experiment as much as you do. I should too.

Kure, the story was hillarious. I actually did chuckle a few times. I wasn\'t as impressed by your art though. It would have been nice to see you try something different, style-wise.

Kure wins my votes for this battle. This has one of the best use of action artwise in this whole tournament. Really funny and awesome at once! Great job Kure!!

Hiemie, you\'re art was also great as well, very nice use of coloring and food product labels, the writing was good too, but not as good as Kure\'s.

A good SDT match-up *clap clap clap*

Hiemie: It was good.  You keep saying you want to change it up, and make Polar Pal\'s comics creepy, but they keep on ending up the same as what you usually do.  Which isn\'t bad, I like what you usually do.  You did like 11 pages, which is crazy, but it got a little too sloppy and confusing at parts which made it a little boring.

Kure: I really enjoyed this.  It was sweet yet creepy.  The first page actually made me smile.  The action wasn\'t great, but it was decent enough to get the point across.  Also, your style fits Kure and Chip really well, but seems kinda odd when used with Lobster-boy comics.  I don\'t really have any sugestions of what to do, just pointing it out.

These were both swell, could go either way, and the voting will be close.  Kure wins for me, though.
