Happy New Year, everyone! I hope everyone had a great time during the holidays while Cleo was stuck in detention. I wish I could say she was going to be free and zapping her way throughout the galaxy again soon, but I’m afraid this dentention is going to last just a little bit longer. But boy, I’m almost as eager to get a raygun back in Cleo’s hands as she is. But story comes first!
It’s not all bad news though. Cleopatra in Space had a couple of nice little mentions on the interwebs while I was away. Comic News Insider selected Cleo as one of their favorite webcomics of 2010! So that was pretty cool. Click here to hear what some of their other picks of 2010 were. Lots of good ones.
And over at WebcComics.CC there’s a nice little spotlight on Cleopatra in Space. Always makes me happy to read stuff like that. It means I’m accomplishing… something. Seriously, I was overwhemlmed by the response this comic got in 2010, and I don’t intend to let any of you down in 2011. This year will see the conclusion of this flashback sequence and the start of Chapter 3 (which is soooo awesome- can’t wait to draw it). You’ll also finally find out what’s in Cleo’s “makeup case.” Well, sorta… You’ll just have to keep reading. ;)
Till next week!
Can I go shoot something? OMG, that girl is a trip! Gotta give her credit for trying.
“You are not in detention to have FUN, young lady!”
Hmmmm … I just had a thought; if the REAL Cleaopatra is here, in the future … just who, or WHAT is back in ancient Egypt in her place? Maybe we’ll find out one of these days …
I love Cleo’s urgent expression when she raises her hand. She looks as if she’s suddenly thought of something vitally important…
“Well, I did! I thought maybe he’d let me shoot something!”
nice work with the bendy pen…. classic time waster
Neat page, Mike. I like the format of this one; with more panels and all. Makes the page more enjoyable overall.
D’waaa~
Bored/annoyed Cleo is so kawaii~
Instead of asking to shoot something she should have asked to go to the toilett and THEN shoot something there. XD
Comic mentioness due to extreme spiffiness of Cleo in Space. :)
Congrats on the mentions :D and how is anyone supposed to tell time with that kind of clock…?
The girl has her priorities.
No shooting in class!
heh… that’s totally me back in school… they never let me shoot anything though.

thanks everyone! sorry, i’ve been so lax about responding to all of your comments. please know that i read and appreciate every one! except the negative ones. ;)
(okay- may the negative ones too)
@Barn0wl – that is an excellent question, but one that won’t be answered in this storyline.
@icecreamchan – don’t ask me. it’s the extremely far far future. they read things crazy different there now.
@Coffinshaker – what a lame school!
