Clarabelle Dust was born into a life of great privilege, in the city of Mae, on the artificial island of Torros. She was a good girl in every measurable sense. Polite, quiet, well educated. Taught to pity those less fortunate. She ate a slice of cantaloupe each morning, with a single pinch of sugar, while her parents and other butter-faced grownups discussed the practicalities of "rescuing" the fallen mainland. She knew little of their politics. They said the world was lost without them; the masses needed a Firm Hand. They said millions starved, ignorance was a disease, and they were the Cure. Clare knew only that her well-heeled shoes were a decadence, that her braces were an extravagance, that jellybeans and long baths and perfumes made her guilty in some fundamental way. It was on her eighteenth birthday that she found an outlet for this shame. She stabbed a police officer in the gut. He did not die, but it still felt like progress. Her parents swore it was a phase. It seems a revolution had begun in the city of Mae. The wise citizens hadn't noticed the signs, though, and were shocked to find it upon them so suddenly, with such fury; a serious threat to the Hope they offered the world. Clare joined the agitators, completely. The politics were still murky, but the actions at least felt pure. She bombed government installations, murdered politicians, exposed corrupt corporate traitors. It was a good time. She was happy...
Great artwork. So where you gonna take it now? Really looking forward to more of this.
thanks. :) I think we'll probably be able to say soon when the debut will be. hopefully.
Great artwork
good **** fellas. we should collaborate sometime. you are now in my top friends...
Sweet! Although the exploding puppy was very disturbing. ;) Excellent story, beautiful art! Can't wait to see more.
Congratulations! I dig the art.
Looking forward to seeing the story unfold.
i kiiiiiinda wanted a different comic to win (hmm) but here we are regardless. well, if you make it worthwhile, i'll NOT ONLY not complain (mind the double negative), but i'll also shower you with compliments (sweet deal!)
Very clean line work...the panel arrangement's superb!
thanks all. :) first, the new pages will be all full color, and as for the 30 days.. yes.. that was intense. to this day I still sometimes get up in the morning and start to try to check my favorites total and so forth. :)
Congradulations! This is the first comic I voted for that won. I'm really intrigued to see where you guys will take the plot!
Great work - I love the black and white to color change during the explosion.
Congratulations guys. After 30 days of biting your nails, you can relax a little. But only a little, we want to see some new screens soon!
well done.
Congratulations! A well earned win.
Congrats!
Congratulations! Can't wait for this to continue.
a good marketing strategy would be to just claim to be chicks even if it's untrue and watch the votes roll in. :)

ugh.
CONGRATULATIONS, i guess.
Well done boys! Congratulations!

Well my vote was with another comic, but I wanted to say congrats on your win and let you know I will be waiting to read gulch. I have a feeling it's only going to get better from here on out and it's already a great comic.
Nice job team. Congrats on the win!

Congrats on the win you guys-- Best of luck on the continued run!
yeah definitely thanks to our myspace people. They were essential. Also giant thanks to Sarah from the pheonix requiem (http://requiem.seraph-inn.com) for being so supportive and sorta being my art mentor. :)
Way to go!
Felicidades winners!!!
Wow, I have a lot of people to thank -- my friends and family, the readers of Gunbaby, Myspace Comics, Phoenix Requiem, the fine folks over at Eyeskream, the staff here at Zuda for selecting us in the first place, and everybody else who voted for and supported us... I also want to say that the all the competitors this month were top notch. It's humbling to come out on top and we're going to do our best to put out a quality comic worthy of the ranking.
congrats on the win, guys. now you can breath easy.
Congratulations on the win, guys!
Congrats, guys on a hard-fought win! Welcome to the Zuda team!
thanks guys. believe me, I could have so much to say about the experience, and the internal drama, and how we adapted our tactics. it was an intense month. no sleep. very little recreation. little food. if you can't say anything else about us, you'd at least have to say that we worked hard for it. thanks again everyone. :)
Congratulations, Matt and Gabe. I can't believe we're actually gonna get to see where this story goes. I cannot WAIT. I'm so psyched.
Congratulations guys! I gotta say that's one of the steadiest climbs in favourites/views etc I think I've seen. What was your winning strategy? (Besides having a winning comic, of course ;o)
